Project start CNT-IR – Infrared emitter with emission-enhancing layer of carbon nanotubes
/in IR, MOEMSIn the newly launched CNT-IR project, carbon nanotubes and encapsulations are to be used to increase the emission of the IR emitter while maintaining the same electrical output. Such light sources are used in particular for optical gas sensors (NDIR sensors)
Oil-free differential pressure sensors for applications in the food industry
/in MEMSThe aim of the new “DMS in ceramics” project is to develop a process for a differential pressure sensor with a media-resistant ceramic bending plate and integrated Si-DMS. By fully integrating the Si strain gauge during the lamination of the Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramics (LTCC), it is hermetically sealed and protected against mechanical manipulation
On the way to the ASi-Sii qubit
/in Measurement, MOEMS, QuantumFor the possible use of ASi-Sii defects as qubits in quantum technology, their precise local generation is an essential prerequisite. At the CiS Research Institute for Microsensor Technology, local light centers in indium-doped silicon have now been generated and detected for the first time by local laser quenching
Project start FiberFLU – Fluorescence module with waveguiding base
/in Analytics, Medical technology, MOEMSThe aim of the market-oriented FiberFLU project is to develop micro-optical and microelectronic components for measuring fluorescence signals, which are to be manufactured in a compact and miniaturized form using semiconductor technologies. One application could be continuous blood glucose measurement based on fluorescent dyes
Development of pressure sensors with minimized mechanically induced non-linearity
/in Analytics, MEMS, Pressure, Simulation & DesignIn the newly launched M2NL project, a development team at the CiS Research Institute is analyzing measurement data from various piezoresistive pressure sensors and wants to use the analysis results to calculate mechanical parameters and their temperature dependency. The aim is to investigate non-linear effects and their influence in the simulation using the FEM tool ANSYS Multiphysics
Get to know the CiS Forschungsinstitut as an employer
/in Events, JobsAre you interested in science and technology? At the Thuringian job fair “academix meets comeback” on 15th June 2024 at the Comcenter Brühl in Erfurt, you can get to know the CiS Forschungsinstitut für Mikrosensorik as an interesting employer.

Highlights of Sensor+Test 2024 in Nuremberg
/in Events, MEMS, MOEMSFrom 11th to 13th June 2024, we look forward to an inspiring dialog with you at our booth at the SENSOR+TEST in Nuremberg. We will present current research results in the development of very high-resolution capacitive MEMS acceleration sensors for inclination and leveling measurements as well as special tandem diodes for a compact standing wave interferometer. The 22nd GMA conference will take place at the same time. Here, the CiS Research Institute will present a diamond-based pressure sensor concept and give a second lecture on fast IR MEMS emitters for NDIR applications
