Electrons meet Photons

Since 1998, the Institute of Optoelectronics belongs to the Centre for Semiconductor Technology and Optoelectronics and has access to a first class technical infrastructure, including a clean room with 470 square metres area. Beside several European projects, the Institute of Optoelectronics is involved in the Centre for NanoIntegration (CENIDE) and in the NanoEnergy Technologies Centre (NETZ).

Tera50

Wireless Ultra High Data Rate Communication for Mobile Internet Access (SPP 1655)

Within the above mentioned DFG priority programme SPP 1655 the sub-project "Tera50" has been recommended for funding recently. Coordinated by Dr. Stöhr, a group of four primary investigators (DSV, HFT, NTS, and OE) from University Duisburg-Essen (UDE) is aiming to develop the basis for a modular wireless measurement system with up to 50 GHz bandwidth and carrier frequencies ranging from 10 GHz to 1 THz.

MAREW 2013 Best Student Paper Award and Best Presentation Award

Two in one sweep

Ivan Flammia, currently enrolled at the University of Duisburg-Essen as PhD Student within the Marie-Curie initial training network "MITEPHO", has presented a novel grounded coplanar waveguide (GCPW) to substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) transition for the development of compact and cost-effective 60 GHz photonic transmitters, key elements of Radio-over-Fiber (RoF) systems. For that he received two awards.
