On November 21, 2025, Henriette Padberg received the Friedrich Wilhelm Prize from the foundation of the same name for her work “Electrical Characterization and Modeling of Bridge-Type Phase Change Memory Cells” in a festive ceremony at RWTH Aachen University.
In her work at PGI-7, under the supervision of Stefan Wiefels, Stephan Menzel, and Prof. Rainer Waser, she developed an algorithm for the automated characterization of phase change memory cells and a COMSOL-based simulation model.
Further details on the work can be found in the accompanying article
