Room for innovation with Silicon Austria Labs Silicon Austria Labs is a top research center for Electronics and Software Based Systems (ESBS), which are the technological backbone of digitization. At three locations (Graz, Villach, Linz), SAL is conducting research in the areas of Microsystems, Sensor Systems, Power Electronics, Intelligent Wireless Systems and Embedded Systems to develop future-oriented solutions for industrial production, health, energy, mobility and safety. SAL brings together key players from industry, science and research and thus valuable expertise and know-how and conducts cooperative, application-oriented research along the value chain. Cooperative projects are co-financed by SAL and enable a fast and unbureaucratic project start. SAL is thus shaping the high-tech locations Austria and Europe and "unfolds the future".

About me

Christian Riener received his B.S. and M.S. degrees in Electrical Engineering from Graz University of Technology in 2019. He began his professional career in the semiconductor industry as an analog chip designer, focusing on ultra-low power RF communication systems. In 2020, he returned to Graz University of Technology to pursue a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, focusing on the broadband modeling of passive components, electromagnetic compatibility modeling, and high-frequency measurement techniques. After completing his Ph.D. in 2024, he joined Silicon Austria Labs, where he is currently involved in designing and simulating magnetic components and EMC-aware designs for power electronics systems. His research interests include numerical simulation, optimization, surrogate modeling, and EMC simulation.
