Phillip of IHP Germany

Biography:

Phillip Ferreira Baade-Pedersen is circuit design engineer at IHP – Innovations for High Performance Microelectronics – in Frankfurt (Oder), Germany. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering and focuses on the design of CMOS analog building blocks for mixed-signal/RF systems. At IHP, he works on analog front-end circuits and supports the integration of open source tools into the IC design flow. Some of the circuits developed as part of his work at IHP have contributed to the foundation of a course on open source analog chip design, aimed at lowering the barrier of entry.

Christian

Biography:

Dr.-Ing. Christian Wittke is a Technology Engineer at the IHP – Leibniz Institute for High Performance Microelectronics in Frankfurt (Oder), Germany. He received his Dr.-Ing. degree from Brandenburg Univer-sity of Technology Cottbus–Senftenberg (BTU), where his research focused on hardware security and electro-magnetic side-channel analysis of cryptographic ASIC implementations.

He joined IHP in 2012 and worked as a researcher in the System Design Department on applied research and technology development projects. Since 2020, he has been part of the Technology Department, where he fo-cuses on customer enablement for IHP’s SiGe BiCMOS technologies and process design kits (PDKs), includ-ing technical support, tape-out assistance, and technical training.

His activities also include technology enablement and educational initiatives, developing and leading training programs for proprietary and open-source chip design and contributing to multi-project wafer (MPW) pro-grams aimed at lowering entry barriers to advanced semiconductor technologies for academia, startups, and the broader open hardware community.

Yogendra

Biography:

Yogendra Kumar Mishra is full professor at Mads Clausen Institute, NanoSYD, University of Southern Den-mark (SDU), Denmark. Prior to SDU, he worked as group leader at Kiel University, Germany. He earned ha-bilitation (Dr. habil.) in Materials Science from Kiel University in 2015 and Ph. D. in Physics in 2008 from Jawaharlal Nehru University (Inter University Accelerator Centre), New Delhi, India. He has introduced a new flame-based synthesis method for growth of tetrapod structures form zinc oxide, and their highly porous 3D interconnected flexible networks. The tetrapods and their 3D networks have demonstrated many applica-tions in engineering, agriculture, and biomedical fields. Additionally, tetrapods can be used as templates to create hybrid and new 3D materials. At SDU Sønderborg, he is heading ‘Smart Materials’ group with the fo-cus to develop new materials for green and sustainable technologies. He is Humboldtian and recently hon-ored with FRSC- Fellow of Royal Society of Chemistry.
