Optical Sciences and Microsystems Technology
To Content
Light can serve as a tool that allows developers in the optical sciences unforeseen possibilities for the future. Microsystems technology is devoted to trying to make devises that are bulky and hard to use into ones that are mobile and user-friendly.
Proximity as a Location Advantage
Players active in the optical sciences and microsystems technologies in Berlin benefit from their proximity to other organizations, which helps developments in both fields become ready for the marketplace more quickly. One important partner for researchers and companies in the fields of microsystems and optical technologies is the Optec-Berlin-Brandenburg (OpTecBB) network.
Berlin’s universities and outstanding research establishment in the field of microsystems technology make the city a center of excellence in this field. These include the Ferdinand-Braun-Institut für Höchstfrequenztechnik (FBH), the Fraunhofer Institute for Reliability and Microintegration (IZM) and the Technische Universität Berlin. Initiatives such as the Center for Microsystems Technology Berlin (ZEMI) in Adlershof smooth the path for cooperation between science and industry.
The optical sciences are indispensible for many fields, such as IT and communications technology, biomedicine and microsystems technology. Berlin gives particular support to German and international flagship projects that are expected to give potential boosts to the regional economy at some point in the future.
Additional fields of activity in the optical sciences are:
- Biomedical optics
- Laser technology
- Lighting and illumination technology
- Optical technologies for transport and aerospace
- Sensor technology, visualization and signal processing
- UV and X-ray technologies
- Terahertz technologies
