Sensor and Actuator Systems

Optical systems/MOEMS

Optical systems/MOEMS are well-established silicon-based systems, i.e. variable frequency optical filters and shutters based on optical Bragg reflectors which are complemented by light sources and detectors. Furthermore, quantum dot-based LED and photo detectors enable customer specific spectral sensors, material integrated light sources as well as design and display devices.
