From 18th August to 7th September 2025, people will once again be pedaling hard – for a bicycle-friendly Erfurt, less car traffic, and lots of new tree planting. As every year, the Erfurt Environmental and Nature Conservation Agency will donate one tree to the nearby Willroder Forest for every 1,000 kilometers cycled
The completed IJP-IR research project investigated alternative processes based on inkjet technology and electroplating for the manufacture of IR emitters. The new process reduces lithography and high-vacuum steps to a minimum and expands the range of materials available for CMOS-compatible systems
The new ZIM project IR-Batch focuses on the development of new assembly technologies for infrared components based on polymer-free joining technologies for use at high temperatures and in extreme environmental conditions. The CiS Research Institute is responsible for technology development
The ambitious goal of the research project was achieved with the successful development of a silicon-based high-pressure sensor with front-flush media contact for a measuring range up to 300 MPa. The front-flush media connection makes the sensor ideal for sensitive areas with strict hygiene regulations, such as in the food industry or pharmaceuticals
The central idea of integrating several small and therefore fast active areas into a single chip was initially achieved through the hybrid integration of individual, very small (1×1 mm²) chips, which were ultimately converted into variants of monolithically integrated arrays
The new Thermistor-HFS research project aims to develop and manufacture a novel heat flow sensor based on a fundamentally different technological approach than solutions already available on the market
In the OTB project, scientists at the CiS Research Institute pursued the goal of reducing or optimizing cross-sensitivity for highly stable and highly accurate piezoresistive resistance bridges consisting of resistance tracks implanted in single-crystal silicon with a high temperature coefficient
With his photo “Aufgewundenes Licht” (Wound Light), our colleague Bernd Sprenger won third place in this year’s “NanObjectives 5.0” photo competition. His photo, taken with a scanning electron microscope at 100x magnification, shows a coiled filament in a standard household light bulb. We warmly congratulate our colleague Bernd Sprenger on his success
The International Superconductive Electronics Conference (ISEC), the biennial scientific conference that brings together global experts in the field of superconductive electronics in a forum, kicked off in Erfurt on Monday. The international series of events is being held at the Radisson Blu Hotel Erfurt until Thursday and covers key topics for the future, such as quantum computers and energy-efficient electronics, and provides a forum for innovations in science and industry
On Saturday, 14th June 2025, we invite you to visit our CiS Research Institute for Microsensor Technology at the Thuringian job and career fair “academix trifft comeback” at the COMCENTER Brühl.
From 10:00 to 15:00, young professionals and specialists in the natural sciences and engineering can learn about our career opportunities. We offer young people training opportunities and internships in computer science, technology, and business
