Two scientists of TU Dresden succeeded in the second call for proposals of the European Research Council, “Proof of Concept Grants”. One of them is cfaed's Strategic Professor Xinliang Feng (Chair for Molecular Functional Materials) who has been honored for his project concerning electrochemical delamination of graphite. The honored scientists will now receive a sponsorship up to EUR 150,000 which will contain a study about the viability of commercial utilization of the excellent research results. To apply for the sponsorship it was required that the scientists and projects had already been promoted by ERC. With the “Proof of Concept Grant” the ERC wants to make a contribution to growth and innovation in the European Union.

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.
