In June 2025, the PLATO space telescope's scientific instrument was integrated with its service module in the clean room of prime contractor OHB in Oberpfaffenhofen, Germany. PLATO – short for PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars – will scan the heavens for Earth-like exoplanets orbiting…
As one of the first partners, AIXTRON SE (FSE: AIXA) joins a 300 mm GaN Power Electronics Program with its Hyperion GaN MOCVD System. The Hyperion system will be used to supply 300 mm epitaxial wafers to the program and its partners for the development of low- and high-voltage power electronics appl…
Die Entwicklung der Ionenimplantation in den 60er Jahren war eine der grundlegenden Voraussetzungen dafür, dass hochintegrierte Schaltkreise, wie wir sie heutzutage kennen, hergestellt werden können. Das Verfahren wird eingesetzt, um Fremdatome in einen Halbleiter einzubringen und auf diese Weise…
A new generation of CAR T cell therapy is bringing hope in the fight against cancer, targeting not only blood cancers but also solid tumors such as ovarian and breast cancer. Fraunhofer researchers teamed up with the University Hospital of Würzburg to streamline the complicated process of manufactu…
Die CAR-T-Zell-Therapie erweitert in Deutschland seit 2018 die Behandlungsmöglichkeiten von Menschen mit bestimmten hämatoonkologischen Erkrankungen. Produziert werden die Zellen für die personalisierte Therapie bislang zumeist in US-amerikanischen Laboren. Dies erfordert eine komplexe Logistik u…
– ESA's PLATO space telescope is scheduled to launch at the end of 2026 and begin its search for Earth-like planets orbiting Sun-like stars in 2027.
– The telescope's optical bench, with its 26 cameras, has now been integrated into the spacecraft's service module – only the solar panels remain to…
