Fraunhofer Institute for Ceramic Technologies and Systems IKTSFrom nΩ to GΩ at temperatures from -40 up to 1000 °C and the most diverse test geometries: With the special measurement methods for high-performance electronics of Fraunhofer IKTS, your products can be measured along the entire resistance and temperature scale.
For this purpose, the "Hybrid Microsystems" department develops functional ceramic materials for use in harsh environments. These materials can be processed and applied in complex microsystems using a wide variety of synthesis, build-up, joining, layer deposition and structuring methods, depending on requirements and customer needs.
To determine the performance, quality and safety of the materials and components, the IKTS group "System Integration and AVT" offers special measurement methods that can be used to characterize the reliability of the materials and products. For example, electrical and mechanical properties can be analyzed in long-term behavior, and the reliability of assembly and contact points or layer properties can be characterized.
