M. P. M. Jank

Michael P.M. Jank received the diploma degree in electrical engineering from the Friedrich-Alexander-University of Erlangen-Nuremberg (FAU) in 1996, and the Dr.-Ing. degree with a thesis on extremely simplified routes to silicon CMOS devices in 2006. He started his career as a teaching assistant at the Chair of Electron Devices at FAU. Following the Dr.-Ing. degree in 2006, he joined the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Systems and Device Technology IISB, Erlangen, where he is currently heading the thin-film systems group, a joint undertaking with FAU. The group focuses on large area and printable thin-film electronics and develops materials, processing techniques, and thin-film devices based on of conventional PVD/CVD techniques as well as novel solution based approaches. He holds lectureships for Nanoelectronics and Printed Electronics from the FAU. He is reviewer for reknown international journals and contributes to scientific and industrial working groups on semiconductor memory devices and nanomaterials.
