Dr. Mohssen Moridi

Mohssen Moridi received the master’s and Ph.D. degrees in microtechnology from École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland. After finishing his PhD he had several research positions in Switzerland. In 2016 he moved to Austria as a head of Microsystem division at CTR AG to establish a MEMS department and to manage a new cleanroom dedicated to industrial R&D. Since 2019 he is a part of Silicon Austria Labs and recently became the Head of Research Division Microsystems. He is currently managing more than 40 researchers with the focus on Thin Film Technologies, Integrated Photonics, Magnetic and Piezoelectric Microsystems. Mohssen has more than 20 years of experience in development of MEMS devices.

Leading a World Class Research Institute

Being a technological backbone of digitization Silicon Austria Labs (SAL) is conducting research in the areas of Microsystems, Sensor Systems, Power Electronics, Intelligent Wireless Systems and Embedded Systems. Key industry players, science and research are brought together by SAL for significant expertise and know-how. The Microsystems and Sensor Divisions at SAL are committed to the development of beyond state-of-the-art tech­no­lo­gies for novel micro-elec­tro­me­cha­nical systems (MEMS) and sensor devices. The core competences and interdisciplinary skills of SAL employees expand the boundaries of current technologies contributing to innovation and groundbreaking ideas. Close colla­bo­ra­tion with our indus­trial and scien­tific part­ners has a great impact on the creation of cutting-edge tech­no­logy from design and proof-of-concept to product proto­types.
