Reliable Measurement of Pressure, Force or Strain – Piezoresistive Sensor Elements in Medical Technology
Piezoresistive pressure sensor chips from CiS are used where high precision, stability and reliability are required. The same sensor principle is now also used for force measurement in silicon strain gages. The strain-sensitive resistors are monolithically integrated into wafer-thin chips as Wheatstone measuring bridge
CiS Forschungsinstitut organises Diamond Summer School, 24.-28.9.2017, Elgersburg
The CiS Research Institute organised a summer school at the “Hotel am Wald” in Elgersburg from 24 to 28 September 2017. Renowned experts in diamond research imparted expertise on synthetic diamond coatings to students, PhD students, researchers and scientists in a total of 11 lectures
Antje Tillmann visits CiS Forschungsinstitut für Mikrosensorik GmbH
On 13 September 2017, Antje Tillmann (CDU), Member of the Bundestag, visited the CiS Research Institute for Microsensors to find out about current developments and challenges for the further positioning of Erfurt as a microelectronics location in global competition
Erfurt microsensor technology for mobile diagnostics – CiS strengthens cooperation with InfectoGnostics
CiS Research Institute will in future provide even more intensive support for the development of diagnostic point-of-care systems at the InfectoGnostics research campus in Jena. Having already contributed its expertise to campus projects as an associated partner, CiS is now officially joining the public-private partnership of InfectoGnostics
Carsten Schneider visits CiS Forschungsinstitut für Mikrosensorik GmbH
Member of the Bundestag Carsten Schneider (SPD) met with industry representatives and scientists for joint talks at the CiS Research Institute for Microsensors on 20 July 2017
Contactless measurement of blood flow
The micro laser Doppler sensor (MiLD) aims to measure the velocity of light-scattering objects and can be used for in vivo assessment of the flow velocity of blood in the skin. Numerous disease symptoms and healing processes can be monitored
New sensor technologies for tracking blood pressure changes
The CiS Research Institute has been developing miniaturised, silicon-integrated, multispectral photoplethysmography sensors for well over a decade. The tiny sensors are placed in the external auditory canal and are individually adapted to the patient
Point-of-care test system with multi-parameter sensor technology
A multi-channel measuring head for investigations on sample volumes in the nanolitre range has been developed by the CiS Research Institute together with international partners within the framework of the European research project “SMARTER-SI” (GA-Nr. 644596). The principle is based on fluorescence and absorption measurement on an array of different enzyme pixels
Microsystems technologies for medical applications
Developers and manufacturers of sensor technology, medical technology and bioanalytics met for the 1st workshop in Erfurt on 10 May 2017 to present innovative solutions from microsystems technology in prevention, diagnosis, analytics and therapy and to network interdisciplinarily
Bolt 4.0 presented at Hannovermesse
For the first time, CiS presented a new sensor for testing special bolt in safety-relevant applications at the joint stand of LEG Thüringen at the Hannover Messe 2017. Described as “Bolt 4.0”, the model impressed the trade visitors
