GreenSense – enabling technology for smart, resourceefficient, energy-efficient sensor networks Setting up vibrometric analysis in the IMMS Mechatronics Lab for the One of the main societal challenges of the 21st century is the search for new regenerative energy sources. At the same time, the transition from fossil and nuclear power to green energy supply must be accompanied by efforts to utilize available energy and environmental resources more responsibly than in the past. Any manufacturing, transport or facility operation processes…
2013 Jahresbericht | Fachartikel MEMS-T-Lab (en/de)
MEMS-T-Lab – 44 a new test lab for MEMS-based micro systems Micro-electrical mechanical systems (MEMS) are no more than a few micrometres in size. They unite sensors, actuators and control electronics onto a single silicon chip in a compact arrangement and are formed direct on the wafer: a method developed for MEMS production which originates in semiconductor manufacture. One use of these tiny systems is to control inkjet printer heads, another is as the microphone in a smartphone, another is as a sensor for the orientation of a…
2013 Jahresbericht | Fachartikel SFB622 (en/de)
SFB 622 – on the track of the nanometre To look at even the cell-phones and USB sticks of yesterday and of today is to see how fast technology has developed over recent years. In an ever smaller volume is to be found ever higher computing capacity and/or ever more memory. It is the continuous reduction in the size of the structural elements of electronic chips that makes all this possible. To take one example, the computing core of the current iPhone 5s contains components which at their smallest have dimensions of 28 nanometres. And not only…

4TPixel – ASIC Development for Radiography IMMS developed a readout circuit for a novel pixel cell and provides low-noise high-quality recordings for X-ray photographs. Photograph: Objectives 48 IMMS. To improve both diagnostics and treatment options for patients, further development has been taking place for many decades in such imaging methods as radiography, computer tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). CMOS image sensors (CIS) have long been established in medical technology. They are semi-conductor structures which…

EROLEDT OLED driver circuit for energy efficient lighting Instruments used in the IMMS laboratory for the characterisation of the Objectives OLED driver developed at the Institute. The ASIC, laid out specifically for the OLED panel, enables it to run efficiently and compensates for the ”Organic LEDs“, or OLEDs*, have been used for some years already in smartphones and television screens. At the moment, they are not in common use for general lighting purposes. An OLED is, however, highly efficient in its use of energy and about 60% more…
