We are developing low-Tc SQUID amplifiers and -systems which can be utilized for high-precision measurements of electrical currents or any quantity that can be transformed into it. Possible fields of application are for example current amplification and detection, displacement sensors for detection of gravitational waves or an utilization in STM- and AFM-systems or the readout of thermal detectors for astronomy (TES, STJ). ... read more |

Multi Sensors Multi Satellites In this project we research the possibilities of sensors applicable in micro-satellites. We focus on three types of sensors: magnetic field, distance and gravity gradient sensing. The specific application demands small sensors with a low power consumption. ... read more |
