As of April 1, 2021, the Fraunhofer Institute for Ceramic Technologies and Systems IKTS will take over the transparent ceramics division of the company CeramTec-ETEC, known for its brand name PERLUCOR^®. The institute thus significantly expands its existing competencies in the development of transparent ceramics. The technical infrastructure gained in the acquisition enables the establishment of a research and development center for transparent ceramics at the IKTS site in Hermsdorf.
