A new Christian Doppler Laboratory at TU Wien is expected to contribute to the next storage revolution within IT. All of our electronics work on the basis of bringing electrical charge carriers to the right location. Electrons move through computer chips, they store the information in our flash drives, and they carry signals from the processor to the hard drive. But this is all going to change: magnetic storage is expected to shape the future of IT. At TU Wien, research has been being carried out in this area with great success, and now the new Christian Doppler Laboratory is being opened on 12 November 2018, which will deal with developing magnetic storage technologies. This is being supported by the Federal Ministry for Digital and Economic Affairs, and by the industry partner Silvaco. "The fact that memory components are constantly becoming smaller and smaller has always been one of the driving forces behind digitization," says Dr. Margarete Schramböck, Federal Minister for Digital and Economic Affairs.
