Trio: TU Graz opens three CD labs simultaneously

Research includes the fabrication of 3D nano-probes, radio-based positioning systems and the porosity of paper at three new Christian Doppler Laboratories to be opened at TU Graz on 25th April. Despite an abundance of CD lab launches at TU Graz, this was the first time it was necessary to open three CD labs at the same time. This triple opening on 25th April strengthens the research competence in the Advanced Materials Science and Information, Communication & Computing Fields of Expertise at TU Graz. In the Christian Doppler Lab for the Direct-Write Fabrication of 3D Nano-Probes under the leadership of Harald Plank, a novel 3D printing technology for nano-probes is at the centre of research interest. The CD lab for Location-Aware Electronic Systems under the leadership of Klaus Witrisal focuses on radio-based positioning systems for applications in which satellite systems are not available or are not accurate enough. The CD lab for Mass Transport through Paper is under the leadership of Karin Zojer and is devoted to various problems concerning the porosity of paper. As the go ahead was celebrated in the Hall of TU Graz, Rector Harald Kainz was present along with the president of the Christian Doppler Society, Reinhart Kögerler, and representatives of the respective corporate partners.
