cfaed's cooperating institute Kurt-Schwabe-Institut für Mess- und Sensortechnik e.V. Meinsberg in 2015 solemnizes its 70th anniversary. Recently the institute held a ceremony to celebrate this jubilee, joined by many high-level visitors. The Saxon Minister of Science and Arts, Dr. Eva-Maria Stange held a short welcoming speech saying that „at Kurt-Schwabe-Institut für Mess- und Sensortechnik e.V. Meinsberg chemists, physicians, biologists, and engineers work together very tightly. The institute with its distinguished competence concerning measuring and sensor technology is an important partner in regional and transregional networks, joint projects and research with other science institutes, universities and companies. In doing so, the institute always succeeded in relating results of fundamental research with practical aims.“, emphasized the minister. In the past years, she said, the Institute – since 2010 led by cfaed Principal Investigator Prof. Michael Mertig – achieved outstanding scientific results.

On Friday, the 13th of November, a HAEC paper by written by David Schöniger, Ronny Henker and Frank Ellinger received the Best Student Paper Award of IEEE International Microwave and Optoelectronic Conference (IMOC) 2015 in Porto Galinhas, Brazil. The paper is titled “A High-Speed Energy-Efficient Inductor-Less Transimpedance Amplifier with Adjustable Gain for Optical Chip-to-Chip Communication”. The results were achieved within the HAEC project "A07: Energy-Adaptive Optical Onboard Links for Inter-Chip Communication".
The proposed Transimpedance Amplifier (TIA) outperforms all other published TIAs with adjustable performance to date. It shows the highest bandwidth and in comparison with fabricated TIAs the lowest power consumption and hence the best energy efficiency. Compared to silicon based implementations with adjustable gain the highest reported gain bandwidth product is achieved.

To be “OR” “NOT” to be? You all may have heard this sentence quite often but for scientists “OR” and “NOT” are two very important logic functions which originates from Boolean algebra. George Boole the father of Boolean algebra was appointed in 1849 as the first professor of mathematics at Queen's College, Cork (now University College Cork) in Ireland. With my Inspire Grant 2015 I went to Cork at Tyndall National Institute and UCC to push the limit of logic functionalities in a silicon nanowire.
At nanofabrication facility Tyndall National Institute with my colleagues
An Indian dinner I cooked for my colleagues from TyndallTyndall National Institute is well known for their expertise in silicon nanowire electronics and I came up with a collaboration plan to visit Tyndall to accelerate the top-down nanowire fabrication plan embedded with in Silicon nanowire path. It was a successful visit as I achieved to make sub 20 nm silicon nanowires with industry combatable process. Special thanks to cfaed career development team and IHRS NanoNet for funding my trip.
