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
The ADAM research project aims to improve the properties of pressure sensors, such as chemical resistance and operating temperature, through the use of glass-ceramic components. This requires the optimization of joining techniques, which are being extensively tested
The new PaRiS research project focuses on the development of technological complexes for the production of resonator structures for resonant sensors based on polycrystalline silicon for use as pressure sensors
Experts from research and industry met in Erfurt on September 17, 2025, to discuss current topics and innovations in silicon-based MEMS technologies. The exciting contributions from industry and science provided inspiration for intensive discussions during breaks and new contacts. The workshop once again confirmed the importance of MEMS technologies for future industrial developments and demonstrated concrete applications
Under the motto “Digital twins in sustainable production,” representatives from business, research, and politics met at the Comcenter Brühl on 27th August 2025, for the 17th Erfurt Technology Dialogue.
In the accompanying exhibition, the CiS Research Institute presented part of its research and service portfolio as well as results from the FIRE research project
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
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
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
Starting tomorrow, the CiS Research Institute will be presenting its portfolio for the first time at EPHJ, an international trade fair for high precision in Geneva. Until 6th June 2025, we will be presenting our silicon-based sensor technologies and expertise in the field of MEMS and MOEMS to an international audience of experts at booth J122 in the Palexpo halls in Geneva
During a visit by students from KOMET (Conference of Medical Technology Student Councils from German-speaking Countries) on May 26, 2025, they were able to gain a small insight into our fascinating world of microsensor technology. MEMS Business Unit Manager Dr. Klaus Ettrich presented a selected range of sensor developments for medical applications. Dr. Bernd Hähnlein generated enthusiasm and practical relevance at the scanning electron microscope of the CiS Analytics Competence Center with the finest structures that are invisible to the naked eye
