Tapeout for an ADC Prototype Chip Completed

The chip design of a configurable ADC has been successfully send to the manufacturer at the end of May. This final step towards the realization of an integrated circuit in silicon is called a tapeout and is always quite the milestone.

Visit us on Tag der Neugier 2022 on August 21st - Open Day at Forschungszentrum Jülich

Join us on a journey into the exciting world of chips. Please come and visit us at our building 02.5. You encounter the little chips every day. Sometimes they are so small and cleverly built that you don't even notice them and these technical marvels help us every day in different ways. With us you can expect how a wafer turns into a microchip; how ground measurement systems can help for example for climate research.

effzett 1-22: Cool calculators

Physicist Carsten Degenhardt and his team at Jülich's ZEA-2 are developing integrated nano- and microelectronic systems - including for quantum computers. Electrical engineer Patrick Vliex designed the prototype for the new cryochip.

Science online: "Science – Systems – Silicon: How Integrated Circuits are Developed at ZEA-2" Dr. André Zambanini (ZEA-2)

Join us on January 12th at 15:00 PM online on MS Teams. A central research topic in ZEA-2 is the use of integrated circuits to enable scalable systems in science. A good example for this is the increase of qubit numbers for a quantum computer from a handful to an order of millions.

SWT Project Event - Dual Students from our Team Software Development participated

The second year dual students from our Software Development Team, Lasse van Baal and Julie Bernard, in cooperation with the FH Aachen and Tobias Salz (INM-1), ended the project period of their software project for the ZEA-2 as part of their studies with a software fair in the JSC.

First Back-to-Back Meeting of the Quantum Computer Projects QSolid and GeQCoS at KIT in March 2023

We are participating in the following Back-to-Back Meeting of the Quantum Computer Projects QSolid and GeQCoS in Karlsruhe. Learn more about the topic and the event: Quantum computers open up a completely new dimension in computer technology. They can be used to solve tasks that conventional computers fail at or take an unacceptably long time to process.

PET Electronics & Technologies 2023 - Workshop in September 2023

The first workshop on PET Electronics & Technologies, a forum for international research and academia to meet and exchange the latest developments in this field, is going to take place on September 12th – 13th 2023 at Fraunhofer-inHaus-Zentrum in Duisburg, Germany.

Paper "On Noise-Sensitive Automatic Tuning of Gate-Defined Sensor Dots" accepted for publication in "IEEE Transactions on Quantum Engineering"

In the paper "On Noise-Sensitive Automatic Tuning of Gate-Defined Sensor Dots", we analyze the noise characteristics of measured sensor dot data and define a criterion to identify continuous regions with a sufficient signal-gradient-to-noise ratio.

Miniaturized Satellite Sensor Electronics on Mission for Atmospheric Research

With the successful launch of the Atmospheric Coupling and Dynamics Explorer (ARCADE) satellite, an innovative remote sensing instrument from Forschungszentrum Jülich for atmospheric research has been sent into space. ARCADE is a small satellite with an edge length of 30 cm and carries as its main scientific payload a remote sensing instrument from Forschungszentrum Jülich equipped with a novel Spatial Heterodyne Interferometer (SHI). The interferometer was developed jointly with Forschungszentrum Jülich Institute of Energy and Climate Research – Stratosphere (IEK-7), the Central Institute of Engineering, Electronics and Analytics - Electronic Systems (ZEA-2) and numerous students from the University of Wuppertal.

Enriching Encounters and Collaborations: Our Journey at the Silicon Quantum Electronics Workshop in Kyoto

Exciting times have come to an end! Our colleagues just concluded the Silicon Quantum Electronics Workshop in Kyoto, Japan. The Silicon Quantum Electronics Workshop is a series of workshops focusing on silicon-based approaches to quantum electronics. The 2023 edition (SiQEW 2023) was held Oct. 31 - Nov. 2, 2023 at the International Conference Center Kyoto. Lammert Duipmans, Patrick Vliex, Dennis Nielinger and Stefan van Waasen (Director of the ZEA-2 Institute) attended the SiQEW 2023.
