Videos
In unseren Videoserien geben wir Ihnen einen Einblick in unsere Kompetenzen, begleiten unsere Wissenschaftler und stellen Ihnen unsere Superwomen in Science vor. Erfahren Sie, was unsere Mitarbeiter motiviert und warum sie gerne bei SAL arbeiten, an welchen innovativen Projekten wir arbeiten und wie wir gemeinsam die Zukunft entlang der gesamten ESBS-Wertschöpfungskette entfalten wollen.
This was ASSIC
For the past 8 years, Silicon Austria Labs worked together with several industrial and scientific partners in the scope of ASSIC Austrian Smart Systems Integration Research Center. The focus of the research activities of ASSIC lies on intelligent system integration based on micro- and nanotechnologies. With its research activities, ASSIC offers well-founded system knowledge about components, technologies, materials, assembly and connection technologies.
Tiny Power Box: Onboard charger for electric cars
In the project "Tiny Power Box", the focus is on optimizing the power density of built-in chargers in electric cars, so-called onboard chargers. The aim is to reduce weight, save components and space while at the same time increase power density by a factor of 4, achieve highest efficiency for fast charging, and increase environmental compatibility.
Superwomen in Science: This is what our researchers work on in the cleanroom
At SAL Villach, we have several laboratories, including a 300m² cleanroom with beyond-state-of-the-art equipment. Sarah, Annalisa, Jasmin and Madeleine work on innovative microsystem technologies, such as piezo MEMS. In the video, they talk about their research and what it takes to start and have a successful career in research.
As part of our research on Sensor Systems in Villach, SAL is operating the COMET K1 center ASSIC Austrian Smart Systems Integration Research Center. The focus of the research activities of ASSIC is on intelligent system integration based on micro- and nanotechnologies. With its research activities, ASSIC offers well-founded system knowledge about components, technologies, materials, assembly and connection technologies. Learn more: https://www.assic.eu/
Silicon Austria Labs & University of Klagenfurt work on ubiquitous sensing
In the joint USE Lab, Silicon Austria Labs and the University of Klagenfurt are working on ubiquitous sensing and bring the "smartness" in the sensor.

Superwomen in Science: Johanna Zikulnig
Johanna studied Biomedical Engineering and works on flexible sensors and printed electronics at SAL. She talks about the importance of sustainable electronics, her latest achievements and how she turns the challenges, that come with the job, into innovative technologies.
ASSIC Project - Fourier Transform Spectrometer
Within the COMET ASSIC program, we work on various projects with partners from industry and science. Amongst others, we created a fourier transform spectrometer for the near infra-red.
**This project was performed within the COMET Centre ASSIC Austrian Smart Systems Integration Research Center, which is funded by BMK, BMDW, and the Austrian provinces of Carinthia and Styria, within the framework of COMET - Competence Centres for Excellent Technologies. The COMET programme is run by FFG.
Meet Alex, researcher in the field of Power Electronics
Meet Alex Connaughton, our Power Electronics scientist of the rock world. He works on topics that shape humanity - always with a hint of that British humor. We accompanied him on a typical work day.
SAL & CTR merge into one research center
Silicon Austria Labs (SAL) and Carinthian Tech Research (CTR) are now one research center! On June 25, the merger agreement between SAL and CTR was presented to the press during a press conference, which was followed by a public expert talk about the future of SAL and its impact for Carinthia and Austria.
