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
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
Project start SiCher – SiC detectors for high-energy radiation
/in MOEMS, Packaging, UVThe aim of the recently launched SiCher research project is to develop industry-oriented functional models of SiC detectors for measuring high-energy radiation, in particular UV and X-ray photons as well as electrons. The focus of the development work is not only on the detectors themselves, but also on the assembly and connection technology
Innovative isothermal sensor with front cavities
/in IR, Medical technology, MOEMSIn 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

Highly sensitive low-noise blue-violet avalanche photodiode for diagnostics
/in MOEMS, Quantum, UVA research team from the CiS Research Institute has developed highly sensitive, low-noise avalanche photodiodes for the blue-violet light range. The new component structure and the associated optimized field distribution reduce the additional noise factor. These new BVAPs with very low noise are suitable for fluorescence analysis in biological and medical diagnostics, for example
