Nano- and Biotechniques in Electronic Packaging

Packaging is a part of technology that merges the functional components to systems and ensures the operation of these systems for all environmental conditions allowed. It comprises the geometric arrangement of the components within the system, energy supply, signal distribution, heat dissipation, and the implementation of protective functions. The Research Training Group (RTG) "Nano- and Biotechniques for Electronic Packaging" contributes to this process by developing and investigating new and innovative packaging solutions that apply methods from nano- and biotechnology. This work focused on the materials and technologies not yet used for packaging. This approach enables new packaging solutions that are totally different from the ones used up to now.
