  • Happy Easter – Creative Contest for Kids
    The Easter holidays with family and friends are just around the corner, and the management of the CiS Research Institute once again invited everyone to participate in a creative hands-on activity. The many creative submissions from the young artists can be viewed in our online gallery [Read more]
  • Machine Learning Electromigration Parameters (MEL)
    The current research project, Machine Learning Electromigration Parameters (MEL), aims to lay the groundwork for new software tools to characterize and optimize materials with regard to electromigration. This effect limits the service life and long-term stability of semiconductor devices in microsensor technology, power electronics, and integrated circuits. A better understanding of the physicochemical processes paves the way for new, improved developments [Read more]
  • Webinar Freeform 3D Structured Silicon Photodiodes
    Dr. Martin Schädel, Head of the MOEMS department at the CiS Research Institute, will discuss new opportunities arising from technologies for three-dimensional structuring of silicon in a webinar on Monday, 30th March 2026, at 15:00 [Read more]
