    Microelectronics research at TU Bergakademie Freiberg

    At TU Bergakademie Freiberg, research is conducted on innovative semiconductor materials, ranging from material synthesis and material and defect characterization to integration into complete components. The focus is on novel materials and components for power electronics (Mat4µ), quantum and nanostructures, and sensor components. Close cooperation with local semiconductor material and component manufacturers is essential in this context. This is reflected in the university’s involvement in the “Silicon Saxony” cluster, the largest microelectronics region in Europe. These activities are made possible by excellently equipped analytical laboratories and access to a CMOS-capable clean room laboratory, which allows the processing of microelectronic components.
