Foundation with space technology
- details
Gießen is considered the birthplace of the radio frequency ion engine. With the electric drive, space vehicles can be maneuvered in the space. A similar technology is already used earthly: the high -precision electricity of ions from the engine can be used to process materials in the nanometer range. Dr. Andreas Reeh develops components that further optimize this process- a profit for optics and semiconductor technology.
