About NaMLab gGmbH 

NaMLab gGmbH is a research organization and associated institute of the Technical University Dresden. NaMLab provides industry-oriented and basic research in material science for electronic devices. Based on its key expertise in dielectric materials for semiconductor devices NaMLab focuses on the integration and application of materials applied to reconfigurable and energy efficiency devices. NaMLab‘s approach of placing the device rather than the material system itself into the center of its research activities differentiates it from other world-class material research activities in the Dresden area. Additionally, it allows taking full advantage of the already existing expertise by forming orthogonal consortia. It therefore fills the gap between basic materials research and its application towards electronic circuits and systems.
