Qimonda, technical university open doors to non-profit research lab
Abstract:
The product of a partnership between Germany-based memory maker Qimonda AG and the Technical University of Dresden, a new research lab in the form of a non-profit company, the Nano Electronic Materials Laboratory nonprofit GmbH (NaMLab), has been finished after 11 months of construction.
According to a statement released Monday by Qimonda and the university, NaMLab is the first company in the form of a "non-private public partnership," meaning that it emerged from partnership between a technical university and an industrial company.
"We strengthen this joint venture with the position of Dresden as a major research center for nanoelectronics," Loh Kin Wah, Qimonda's CEO, said in a statement. "It should help give us the best brains to win."
At the site, a 300-mm fab and a large research and development (R&D) center operates, and 300 acres of large clean room are available. Twenty seven researchers and staff will focus on researching the development of new nanoelectronic materials, the duo said.
