In their second joint MEMS Seminar in Munich, Yole Développement and Fraunhofer EMFT will focus on current challenges and trends in the field of sensor applications on the way to the "Next Big Thing".
Within the project “EnSO” (Energy for Smart Objects), 39 partners from eight countries cooperate to establish new solutions for an intelligent energy supply. The project partners aim to develop so-called AMES (Autonomous Micro Energy Sources). AMES combine several elements like energy harvesting, energy management and micro energy storage systems, ideally allowing for a lifelong operating period.
A research team at Fraunhofer EMFT has developed a CO2 sensor based on an impedimetric measuring principle. The innovation is based on a new type of hybrid sensor layer, a combination of organic and anorganic material. The measurements delivered by the novel sensor show very promising results so far.
The scientists at Fraunhofer EMFT have developed a self-sufficient micro degasser, capable of removing gas bubbles and dissolved gas from liquids. The heart of the degasser is a silicon micropump developed at Fraunhofer EMFT.
Elektronic modules for future generations of mobile communication
Within the European joint project REFERENCE, innovative production processes shall be developed for novel high frequency (HF) technologies for electronic modules for future generations of mobile communication.
