The Furtwangen University (HFU) celebrates another milestone at its Research Center in Rottweil on Thursday, October 1st: a new cleanroom laboratory will open there, opening up new possibilities for research. The interested public is cordially invited to attend the inauguration of the new facilities…

The room hums to the sound of powerful ventilators. In the pale light, Peter Rimpf pulls a full-body coverall with hood over his clothes, steps into clean room shoes and snaps a nitrile glove onto each hand. “A single flake of skin can destroy a dozen chips,” says Rimpf, who heads operations at the…

For AI data centres or quantum computers, nano-transistors need to become ever smaller, better suited to low temperatures and more efficient. In this interview, Professor Daniel Hiller explains how they can be manufactured in the future using nanowires and quantum physics. As a DFG-funded Heisenberg…

A central research facility of the Technical University of Berlin is being prepared for the coming decades: With support from the German Research Foundation (DFG) and the State of Berlin, the plasma etching system in the cleanroom of the Center for Nanophotonics is being extensively renovated with a…

The Free State of Saxony supports the structural transformation in South-West Saxony with additional million-euro investments in science and research. One of the largest planned investments is the construction of a new cleanroom for research and technology development in the field of sustainable mic…

Old solar modules on the roof, worn rotor blades from wind turbines, single-use electrical devices from the operating room: All these products contain valuable raw materials – metals, rare earths, or high-quality fibers. However, they are often embedded in composite materials, making them difficult…

The IHP – Leibniz Institute for Innovative Microelectronics and the Technical University of Wildau celebrated the 20th anniversary of their joint lab today at IHP in Frankfurt (Oder). The event demonstrated how long-term collaboration between non-university research and universities in Brandenburg s…

The comprehensive research into cancer, dementia, and immune diseases is only possible with precise and simultaneously cell-friendly diagnostic and analytical technologies. This is precisely where the new research project "3D-Life" at Kaiserslautern University of Applied Sciences comes in.

A strongly…

In the 2026/27 winter semester, OTH Regensburg will launch a degree programme for anyone who doesn’t want to choose between physics, chemistry and engineering, but would rather combine them all.

From smartphone sensors to medical technology: modern technologies emerge where several disciplines conver…

– Researchers have developed a design principle enabling the creation of complex patterns on silicon chips by way of microfabrication.
– Thanks to these patterns, vibrations follow predetermined paths.
– A material structured in this manner could harvest energy from vibrations or process signals witho…
