Ceremonial opening of the MEMS Smart Sensor Institute – development of key technology for Industry 4.0

28. May 2018/in Automotive, Events, MEMS, Politics, Quantum

These days, the delegation trip “Exploring the Economy of Tomorrow. Thuringia visits China 2018” under the leadership of Wolfgang Tiefensee, Thuringian Minister for Economy, Science and Digital Society, is taking place. Today – after six months of interior construction – the “German-Chinese MEMS Smart Sensor Institute” in Nanjing could be ceremoniously opened. The founding of the institute, which was completed on November 28 last year, is an initiative of the Chinese “Der Sensor Group” and the CiS Research Institute in Erfurt

CiS at the Hannover Messe Industry from 23-27 April 2018

2. May 2018/in Automotive, Events, Measurement, MEMS, Politics, Pressure

With the repeated participation as an exhibitor on the community stand of the Thuringian State Development Corporation, the CiS Research Institute could register consistently positive feedback in numerous discussions with interested parties from industry and medium-sized businesses

Workshop „Future Technologies for Radiation Detectors”

7. March 2018/in Analytics, Events, Packaging, Silicon Detectors

For the 3rd time, the international workshop “Future of Silicon Detector Technologies” focused on technologies and devices for the development and production of radiation detectors. The focus was also on future research priorities in order to be able to manufacture sensors with extremely high radiation hardness with long-term stability and at low cost. In particular, the new experiments at CERN and at the Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung (Society for Heavy Ion Research) in Darmstadt require this radiation hardness in addition to other technical parameters

6. February 2018/in Events, MOEMS, Packaging, Photonic, Waferprocessing

For the first time, CiS Forschungsinstitut für Mikrosensorik GmbH was represented as an exhibitor at SPIE Photonics West 2018 in San Francisco. As one of 70 German exhibitors in the German Pavilion in the North Hall of the Moscone Center, the CiS Research Institute demonstrated its expertise in the design as well as the manufacture and assembly of customised optical microsensors

Foundation of the German-Chinese MEMS Smart Sensor Institute

28. November 2017/in Events, MEMS

On 28 November 2017, the “German-Chinese MEMS Smart Sensor Institute” was founded in Jiangsu, China. The aim is the joint development and industrialisation of novel MEMS sensors and systems. The CiS Research Institute in Erfurt serves as a role model. The independent research institute, which is close to the economy, was selected because it has been developing MEMS for over 20 years and has been very successful in transferring them to industrial production

Reliable Measurement of Pressure, Force or Strain – Piezoresistive Sensor Elements in Medical Technology

9. November 2017/in Force, Measurement, Medical technology, MEMS, Packaging, Pressure

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
