Ao. Univ.Prof. i.R. Dipl.-Ing. Dr.techn. Karl Riedling verstorben

Die Gesellschaft für Mikro- und Nanoelektronik trauert um Univ.-Doz. i.R. Dr. Karl Riedling, der am 3. Juli 2020 nach langer schwerer Krankheit verstorben ist.

Karl Riedling wurde im Jahre 1990 als Generalsekretär der GMe bestellt und war bis zu seinem Tode eine wertvolle Unterstützung des Vereinsvorstandes. Er zeichnete als Organisator großer finanzträchtiger Projekte, wie dem Bau einer Ionenprojektionslithographie-Maschine sowie der Errichtung des Mikrostrukturzentrums in Wien maßgeblich verantwortlich. Sein Organisationstalent und seine Genauigkeit wurde nicht nur von der GMe sehr geschätzt. Als Entwickler einer Pulbikationsdatenbank für die Fakultät Elektrotechnik, die mittlerweile für die Technische Universität ausgebaut wurde, sowie seine Bestellung als Geschäftsführer der Österreichischen Physikalischen Gesellschaft zeigten das Vertrauen, dass ihn ihm als Programmierer, Manager und Organisator gesetzt wurde.

Mit Herrn Karl Riedling verliert die Österreichische Welt der Mikro- und Nanoelektronik einen engagierten Wissenschafter und die GMe ein stützendes Mitglied, das für seine Verlässlichkeit und seine Präzision auf höchstem Niveau äußerst geschätzt wurde.

Em.O.Univ.Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Dr.techn. Dr.h.c. Fritz Paschke verstorben

Die Gesellschaft für Mikro- und Nanoelektronik trauert um ihren Ehrenpräsidenten Em.O.Univ.Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Dr.techn. Dr.h.c. Fritz Paschke, der am 29.3.2022 verstorben ist. Fritz Paschke war Ehrenpräsident und maßgeblich an der Gründung der GMe beteiligt.

Österreich verliert mit Fritz Paschke einen herausragenden Wissenschaftler, der von seinen Kolleginnen und Kollegen nicht nur für seine Kompetenz sehr geschätzt wurde, sondern in der wissenschaftlichen Welt hoch angesehen war. Als wirkliches Mitglied der Österreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften und Präsident des Fonds zur Förderung der wissenschaftlichen Forschung war er maßgeblich an der wissenschaftlichen Entwicklung Österreichs beteiligt. Auch war er maßgeblich bei der Etablierung der ersten Halbleiter-Reinraumlabore an der TU-Wien und der Johannes Kepler Universität Linz, was eine Vielzahl von neuen Projekten und erstklassigen Ausbildungen zahlreicher Mikro-Elektronik Absolventen/-innen ermöglichte. Sein wertschätzendes und immer wohlwollendes Wesen wurde nur von seiner außergewöhnlich inspirierenden Tätigkeit als Lehrer übertroffen.

Wir trauern um einen überragenden Wissenschaftler, einen beeindruckenden Mentor, einen besonderen Menschen. Unsere Gedanken sind in dieser schweren Stunde bei seiner Familie.

Fritz Paschke: Nachruf | TU Wien

Univ.-Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Fallmann verstorben

Die Gesellschaft für Mikro- und Nanoelektronik trauert um Univ.-Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Fallmann, der am 3. Februar 2019, einen Tag vor seinem 82. Geburtstag, unerwartet verstorben ist.

Wolfgang Fallmann war über viele Jahre eng mit den Aktivitäten der GMe verbunden: Er war bis 1990 ihr Generalsekretär, von 1990 bis 1993 ihr Präsident, und bis 2009 Mitglied des Vorstands. In der Zeit seiner Präsidentschaft war die GMe federführend bei der Realisierung großer österreichischer Mikroelektronik-Projekte, etwa dem Bau einer Ionenprojektionslithographie-Maschine oder der Errichtung des Mikrostrukturzentrums der TU Wien. Das von Wolfgang Fallmann in den Siebziger Jahren an der TU Wien eingerichtete und am 13. März 1974 eröffnete erste universitäre Mikroelektronik-Technologielabor Österreichs war Keimzelle für viele spätere universitäre und außeruniversitäre Aktivitäten auf dem Gebiet der Mikro- und Nanoelektronik.

Mit Wolfgang Fallmann verliert die GMe und Österreich einen Pionier der Mikro- und Nanoelektronik-Technologie, einen großen Universitätslehrer und einen Menschen mit höchsten Qualitäten.

"IEEE Cledo Brunetti Award" 2018 for Siegfried Selberherr

On December 4^th, 2018, Siegfried Selberherr received the internationally highest ranking award for activities in the area of microelectronics, the "IEEE Cledo Brunetti Award". The award ceremony took place during a gala dinner for about 2000 participants in the course of the "International Electron Devices Meeting 2018". The dedication of the Award was "For pioneering contributions to Technology Computer Aided Design."

The price, awarded once a year, is funded from the bequest of Cledo Brunetti and dedicated to "Outstanding Contributions to Nanotechnology and Miniaturization in the Electronics Arts". Its first awardees in 1978 were Jack Kilby, one of the "inventors" of the integrated circuit, and Robert Noyce, the founder of Intel.

Cledo Brunetti was an outstanding engineer of the American "National Bureau of Standards", which is the reason why the broad public hardly learned about his inventions and developments, or at least very late. Among others, he miniaturized the walkie talkie, integrated its components and made it usable in civil life.

The Society for Micro- and Nanoelectronics congratulates Siegfried Selberherr to this remarkable achievement!
