➀ The Fraunhofer Institutes IMS and FHR have qualified for the second competitive round of the Fraunhofer Society's performance centers with their work on 'Terahertz sensor technology'. The participation is associated with a 3 million Euro grant from January 1, 2025, to December 31, 2027. ➁ The need for bandwidth is the main driver for Terahertz (THz) technologies, as modern applications like cloud computing or artificial intelligence require ever higher data transmission rates. ➂ With the funding from the Fraunhofer Society, the two participating institutes can establish a center over the next three years that focuses on chip development and the transfer of all related manufacturing and evaluation steps to the finished MMIC.
