Together with TOPTICA Photonics, a manufacturer of lasers for research and semiconductor manufacturing, Fraunhofer ITWM has developed an industrial solution for inline coating-thickness measurement for ultra-high speed applications. This system enables 1600 thickness measurements per second for the first time and is thus suitable for use on fast-moving samples during ongoing production.
Quantum-Inspired Terahertz Spectroscopy With Visible Photons
The researchers of the Fraunhofer ITWM are working on the detection of terahertz waves based on new quantum optical methods. A year ago, the renowned journal »Science Advances« reported on first successes. Now the next milestone has been reached.
Our colleague Nina Schreinerhas received the Poster Pitch Prize for the EuMC-32 session at the virtual European Microwave Week 2020. She was successful with her presentation on "Optimization algorithms for accurate FMCW thickness measurements".
Prizes and Awards
Best Paper Award
Our colleague Maris Bauer has received the THz Science and Technology Best Paper Award für das Jahr 2021 gewonnen.
This recognized his IEEE publication "A High-Sensitivity AlGaN/GaN HEMT Terahertz Detector With Integrated Broadband Bow-Tie Antenna" as "most significant contribution by a published paper in the year 2019 to the field of interest of the Microwave Theory and Techniques Society”.
