NO-TICE project launch: Minimizing the temperature dependence of the measurement signal due to zero point drift
The newly launched NO-TICE research project at the CiS Research Institute involves investigating ways of compensating for the influence of temperature, particularly on the zero point of the raw signal in sensors with very low transverse strain sensitivity, in order to minimize the amount of calibration required and thus conserve resources in terms of costs, time, and materials
CiS Research Institute at the international conference MATERIALSMEET2025 in Budapest
The international conference MATERIALSMEET2025 will take place in Budapest from 10th-12th April 2025, at which Dr. Tobehn-Steinhäuser from the CiS Research Institute will discuss the topic “Semiconductor devices at cryogenic temperatures” for the application of hydrogen on 11th April 2025 as an invited speaker
Visit us at the HANNOVER MESSE 2025
From 31st March to 4th April 2025, the CiS Research Institute will be presenting its technology portfolio at #hmi25. In Hall 6 at the LEG joint stand in Thuringia (Stand F61), our experts will be presenting silicon-based MEMS and MOEMS sensor concepts for a wide range of applications
End of project PoRr: Photodiodes without back reflection
In the PoRr project, a team of scientists from the CiS Research Institute developed photodiodes with significantly reduced back reflection. Reflections are reduced by 15% by means of special surface structuring. Specially developed measuring stations make it possible to record the proportion of total reflection at different wavelengths as well as the angular distribution of the reflected light at different angles of incidence
CoGeQ project meeting at the CiS Research Institute
On 7th March 2025, the partners of the BMBF joint project “Competitive German Quantum Computer (CoGeQ)” discussed the current project status at the CiS Research Institute in Erfurt
ISEC 2025 in Erfurt: Registration started
Registration for the 19th edition of the International Superconductive Electronics Conference (ISEC), which will take place from 15th to 19th June 2025 in Erfurt, Germany, has started! Secure your participation and benefit from the attractive early bird discount until 28th April 2025!
CiS Research Institute at the DPG Spring Conference in Regensburg
On 17th March 2025, Dr. Kevin Lauer will discuss the topic “Impact of a magnetic field on low-temperature photoluminescence of indium-doped silicon” in his lecture. His contribution invites discussion on the glow of acceptor-interstitial silicon defects (ASi-Sii)
Project start CryoSense2R: Sensor-based system monitoring at cryogenic temperatures
The aim of the new CryoSense2R research project is to develop a redundant sensor system for temperature measurement in the cryogenic range. Used close to absolute zero, it can be used to determine the temperature and monitor other physical parameters, especially of liquid hydrogen
Project result ZugKraftSensor: Sensors for belt tension monitoring
The “ZugKraftSensor” project developed a silicon-based technology platform for permanently monitoring belt tension up to a load of around 35 kN in drive technology systems. By monitoring the mechanical tension, maintenance intervals can be planned precisely, material fatigue can be detected at an early stage and unplanned downtimes can be avoided
CiS Forschungsinstitut presents award-winning invention at the TAS in Coburg
Dr. Klaus Ettrich, Business Unit Manager at the CiS Research Institute, will open the series of presentations at the 4th Technology Day Applied Sensor Technology (TAS) in Coburg. He will report on silicon-based MEMS sensors for checking safety-relevant bolted connections, which are used in mechanical engineering, conveyor technology and wind turbines
