With the MinerVa project, the CiS Research Institute is launching the development of a MEMS Pirani sensor for pressure measurement in the fine high vacuum range. The potential applications are diverse, for example in the production of thin functional layers using physical vapor deposition (PVD)
Once again this year, the management of the CiS Research Institute invited employees to take part in a creative hands-on activity during the Easter period. The children of all employees were invited to submit self-drawn pictures of the Easter bunny or Easter crafts by today. Each participating child received a sweet surprise as a reward. The numerous creative submissions from the young artists can be admired in our online gallery.
The project dealt with the development of capacitive accelerometers with a resolution of 0.001⁰ based on chip-level processes. The main features are a significantly increased seismic mass, a laterally arranged differential capacitor and a hermetic package
The focus of the completed PAS research project was the development of a piezoresistive microphone component based on micromechanical systems (MEMS) for highly integrated photoacoustic gas sensors. The sensor is suitable for an application range from -40⁰C to 140⁰C. Applications are in the field of climate and environmental protection to improve energy management, air quality testing or in medical technology as highly sensitive breathing gas sensors.
From 17th-22nd March 2024, the Sektion Kondensierte Materie (SMK) of the Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft e. V. (DPG) together with its specialist associations and working groups is organizing the DPG Spring Conference on the campus of the Technical University of Berlin. In four contributions, Dr. Kevin Lauer and young researchers will present their latest scientific results on various defect mechanisms in silicon at different doping levels and invite discussion
At the CiS Research Institute, pressure sensors based on NV centers in diamond were produced using industrial manufacturing methods in cooperation with partners from industry and science. The results of the Qind research project will be presented at the 28th Hasselt Diamond Workshop SBDD
In the completed NIVo research project, a new thermopile sensor was developed that works on the principle of isothermal detection of infrared radiation and is exempt from the front side. This combination enables the production of a new type of high-performance sensor in the field of thermography
As a long-standing member of OptoNet e.V., we are taking the opportunity to introduce ourselves to the members of the Photonics Network Thuringia at the virtual members’ meeting on Monday, 19th February 2024. Dr. Martin Schädel, Head of Business Unit MOEMS, will present the institute as a partner for production-oriented research and development of new sensor solutions and microsystems based on silicon technologies
Until 1st March 2024, interested, technology-oriented founders can apply online at www.gs2g.de with their innovative business idea. The successful Thuringian technology competition getstarted2gether was initiated jointly by the Thuringian Ministry of Economics, Science and Digital Society and the Thuringian Research and Technology Association (FTVT)
A successful week at SPIE.Photonics West in San Francisco came to an end yesterday. The trade fair is an international event for solutions, components and system support for the optics and photonics industry
