IBM and ETH Zurich form strategic partnership in nanoscience
Date:6/25/2008

to spark advances in vari-ous fields. These include advanced functional materials, nanoelectronics, information and communication technology, sensing, tools, healthcare and life sciences, and energy technology. In particular, nanotech applications in the energy sector, such as more effi-cient use of solar energy, or new ways of water treatment, might even help to tackle some of the biggest challenges of our time.

With its research at ETH Zurich and the IBM Zurich Research Lab, Zurich is one of the hotspots of quantum mechanics and nano research. And this is so for an excellent rea-son: ground breaking concepts in quantum mechanics have been formulated by ETH physicist and Nobel Laureate, Wolfgang Pauli. Gerhard Binning and Heinrich Rohrer received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1986 for the development of the scanning tunnel-ing microscope at the IBM Zurich Research Lab. This instrument allowed the first look into the world of atoms, thus throwing the door to nanotechnology research wide open. A lot of potential nevertheless still remains to be unlocked. With the new lab, ETH Zurich and ZRL are determined to bring nanotechnology to the next level.
