In the KTB project, various programs were combined into a complex simulation tool for the development of high-precision and long-term stable pressure sensors in order to simulate the characteristic curves of MEMS components, enabling a continuous simulation process
Yesterday in Chemnitz, five young researchers were honored with the prestigious Silicon Science Award 2025. The award ceremony took place during the opening ceremony of Waferbond
The new “ZEBA” research project is investigating image-property relationships and developing an AI-supported process flow that can be integrated into the manufacturing process and provides non-destructive information about the expected burst pressure of individual chips
Prof. Thomas Ortlepp, Managing Director of the CiS Research Institute, was also impressed by the city of the future, which was still a fishing village 40 years ago and has since developed into a high-tech metropolis. He was invited to give the opening speech at the 4th Sensor and Application Technology Conference and, in his keynote address entitled “Innovations in industrial sensor technologies,” provided an overview of current development trends in silicon-based microsensor technology
COMPAMED, a leading international trade fair for medical suppliers, begins today in Düsseldorf. The CiS Research Institute will be represented at the IVAM joint booth in Hall 8a, Booth F35-2. Until Thursday, 20th November 2025, experts in the medical supply sector will come together to present components for medical devices and equipment and discuss high-tech solutions
On 12th and 13th November 2025, the 24th Precision Fair will take place at the Brabanthallen in ‘s-Hertogenbosch. The CiS Research Institute for Microsensor Technology will be exhibiting for the first time at the joint stand of LEG -Thüringen in hall 6, booth202
On 4th November 2025, the CiS Research Institute invited the public to an open dialogue in the historic ballroom of Erfurt City Hall under the motto “Understanding quantum technologies – popular rather than scientific.” Interested citizens enjoyed an informative introduction to the event with experiments and a welcome address from the city of Erfurt. Around 60 interested participants joined Prof. Thomas Ortlepp, Managing Director of the CiS Research Institute, on a journey into the quantum world and the development of quantum computers
The research project “SOS – Stray Light Suppression in Optical Sensor Assemblies” was launched with the aim of simulating and recording the occurrence and influence of stray light in miniaturized sensor assemblies and finding and evaluating methods for suppressing it. The figure shows a test vehicle consisting of a structured photodiode with a daylight filter and based on an assembly from a turbidity sensor
Under the motto “Change through Progress,” the MicroSystem Technology Congress 2025 kicks off today in Duisburg. At the 11th edition of the congress, the CiS Research Institute is presenting a selection of its research results in four posters from the fields of simulation, strain gauges, and IR emitters
Under the motto Key Technologies for Photonic Quantum Systems, scientists and engineers from research and industry discussed the challenges and potential of photonic quantum technologies on 22nd October 2025. This year’s CiS MOEMS Workshop in Erfurt offered all participants an excellent platform to intensively discuss findings from projects and industry, exchange experiences, and generate new ideas
