Annual Report: Facts & Figures
Our Year 2022
53 Projects
Projects 2022: Percentage distribution according to competence fields
The Fraunhofer EMFT team was able to make its contribution to tackling the current challenges facing society in 2022 with a total of 53 projects. Almost half of these – 47% to be precise – can be attributed to the area of expertise Micro- and Nanotechnologies. This in turn forms the basis for the competences Sensor Solutions, Micropumps, and Safe and Secure Electronics. It is precisely the interdisciplinary interaction between these areas that helps us produce forward-looking solutions for people and the environment.
22.8 M € Total Budget
Development of the overall budget within the last five years
The total budget of Fraunhofer EMFT in 2022 was around 22.8 million euros. Industrial orders generated a total volume of around 4.0 million euros, or 22.10% of the operating budget.
155+ Employees
Number of employees within the last five years
In order to achieve this, you need a strong team: compared to the previous year, the number of permanent staff at the institute increased by four in 2022, with a total of workforce of 155 as of the end of the year. Of these, 94 people are employed in the scientific area and 58 in support areas. The latter are made up of marketing, IT, administration, technology, quality management, organization and services. In addition, the Fraunhofer EMFT team has been supplemented with three trainees.
Another 66 student assistants from a wide range of universities and other higher education institutions were employed at Fraunhofer EMFT over the course of the year, either involved in Fraunhofer EMFT research activities and/or working on their final thesis.

History of Fraunhofer EMFT
Thermal processing during the eighties
- Fraunhofer EMFT originates from the Fraunhofer Institute for Solid State Technology IFT, which was founded in 1974. Here, technologies were developed for the manufacture of semiconductors. Other areas of activity included sensor technology, communication technology and microstructure technology.
- 1999 the Fraunhofer IFT was dissolved and split into three independent sections. The section located in Hansastrasse, Munich - today`s Fraunhofer EMFT - became part of the Berlin-based Fraunhofer Institute for Reliability and Microintegration IZM.
- Since July 1, 2010, Fraunhofer EMFT has been operating as an independent institution of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft afresh.
- On March 1, 2023, Fraunhofer EMFT is transformed into the Fraunhofer Institute for Electronic Microsystems and Solid State Technologies EMFT
