VORWORT / INTRODUCTION<br />
A. Vorwort<br />
A. Introduction<br />
Das <strong>IPHT</strong> konnte das Jahr <strong>2005</strong> mit einer erfolgreichen<br />
Projektarbeit abschließen. Die Drittmittelquote<br />
liegt deutlich über 50% mit einer bemerkenswerten<br />
Steigerung bei den EU-Projekten.<br />
Als besonders herausragende Beispiele der in<br />
diesem Jahresbericht enthaltenen Darstellung<br />
der Ergebnisse sollen hier genannt werden:<br />
– Erstmalig wurden vier Flussquanten-Qubits als<br />
Vorstufe für einen adiabatischen Quantenrechner<br />
gekoppelt und spektroskopisch charakterisiert.<br />
– Bei der Erzeugung von Einzelpuls-Bragg-Gittern<br />
(Typ I) in optischen Fasern wurden mit bis<br />
zu 50% Reflexionseffizienz internationale Spitzenwerte<br />
erzielt.<br />
– Die Entwicklung eines auf dem Prinzip segmentierter<br />
Probenströme arbeitenden LabOn-<br />
Chip basierten Systems führte zu einer Analysenplattform<br />
für die Krebsdiagnostik, deren<br />
Anwendungspotenzial auf grundlegende molekularbiologische<br />
Fragestellungen erweiterbar<br />
ist.<br />
– durch Laserkristallisation von Silizium auf Glas<br />
wurden mittels eines industrietauglichen Diodenlasers<br />
Keimkristalle mit Abmessungen bis<br />
500 µm erzeugt, die die bisherige Größe um<br />
das 5- bis 10fache übersteigt.<br />
Gleichzeitig wurde während des Jahres eine<br />
Reihe von Weichenstellungen für eine zukunftsorientierte<br />
Aufstellung und Entwicklung der<br />
Arbeitsgebiete des <strong>IPHT</strong> vorbereitet. Dazu gehört<br />
zunächst die Berufung von Prof. Dr. Jürgen Popp<br />
als Leiter des Forschungsbereiches Mikrosysteme<br />
zum 1. Mai <strong>2005</strong>. Er ist gleichzeitig Lehrstuhlinhaber<br />
für Physikalische Chemie an der Universität<br />
<strong>Jena</strong> und ausgewiesener Spezialist auf dem<br />
Forschungsgebiet der Laserspektroskopie und<br />
der Biophotonik. Damit wird die Verbindung von<br />
optischen Technologien und Anwendungen der<br />
Lebenswissenschaften fachlich gestärkt und die<br />
Zusammenarbeit mit der Friedrich-Schiller-Universität<br />
weiter unterstützt. Dr. Helmut Dintner, der<br />
diesen Forschungsbereich während der vergangenen<br />
sechs Jahre geleitet hatte, gebührt unser<br />
Dank für seine umsichtige Leitungstätigkeit<br />
während dieser Zeit.<br />
Zur Frage einer mit dem Umfeld abgestimmten<br />
und zukunftsorientiert ausgerichteten Fokussierung<br />
der Arbeitsgebiete zu photonischen und<br />
optischen Technologien wurde auf Empfehlung<br />
des Wissenschaftlichen Beirats durch das Kuratorium<br />
des <strong>IPHT</strong> eine Strukturkommission unter<br />
Leitung von Prof. Dr. Dietrich Wegener (Universität<br />
Dortmund) mit Beteiligung von Vertretern<br />
des <strong>IPHT</strong>, der Universität und des Landes eingesetzt.<br />
Auf der Basis eines vom <strong>IPHT</strong> vorgelegten<br />
Konzeptes wurden unter besonderer Berücksichtigung<br />
der bestehenden fachlichen Stärken Empfehlungen<br />
zur Fokussierung auf den Gebieten<br />
For the <strong>IPHT</strong>, <strong>2005</strong> was a successful project year.<br />
The share of project-financed activities was well<br />
above the 50% level, with a considerable<br />
increase in EU-funded projects. Here are some<br />
highlights of the results presented in this annual<br />
report:<br />
– For the first time, four flux quantum qubits have<br />
been coupled and spectrally characterized – a<br />
first step towards an adiabatic quantum computer.<br />
– The inscription of single pulse fibre Bragg gratings<br />
(type I) has achieved a reflection efficiency<br />
of 50% – a new international record.<br />
– The development of a LabOnChip based system<br />
using the principle of segmented probe<br />
flow has paved the way for an analysis platform<br />
for cancer diagnosis, which can be further<br />
extended to perform fundamental investigations<br />
in molecular biology.<br />
– By laser crystallisation of silicon on glass with<br />
a diode laser suitable for industrial use, seed<br />
crystals with a size of up to 500 µm have been<br />
produced, which is an improvement by a factor<br />
of 5 to 10.<br />
In addition to the scientific achievements, several<br />
measures were taken to shape the future of the<br />
<strong>IPHT</strong> and to assure the successful development<br />
of its research fields. As one major point, Prof. Dr.<br />
Jürgen Popp was appointed as head of the Micro<br />
Systems research division as of May 1 st , <strong>2005</strong>.<br />
He is also a professor of physical chemistry at<br />
the University of <strong>Jena</strong> and a well-known specialist<br />
in the fields of laser spectroscopy and biophotonics.<br />
This appointment will strengthen the synergy<br />
in our research in optical technologies and<br />
applications in the life sciences as well as intensify<br />
our collaboration with the University of <strong>Jena</strong>.<br />
We are obliged to Dr. Helmut Dintner for his prudent<br />
management of the said research division<br />
during the last six years.<br />
Based on a recommendation by the Institute’s<br />
scientific council, the Supervisory Board of the<br />
<strong>IPHT</strong> appointed a structural commission headed<br />
by Prof. Dr. Dietrich Wegener (University of Dortmund)<br />
with participation of representatives from<br />
the <strong>IPHT</strong>, the University of <strong>Jena</strong> and the State of<br />
Thuringia. This commission has discussed future<br />
focussing directions in the fields of photonic technologies<br />
considering regional interests to<br />
strengthen scientific excellence. Based on a concept<br />
framed by the <strong>IPHT</strong>, the commission investigated<br />
the Institute’s specific strengths and recommended<br />
focussing and further strengthening<br />
in the fields of optical fibres and applications and<br />
photonic instrumentation.<br />
For the magnetics and quantum electronics<br />
research fields, similar and still ongoing discussions<br />
have been held in order to develop strategies<br />
for this important part of the <strong>IPHT</strong>’s activities.<br />

Optische Fasern und Faseranwendungen und<br />
Photonische Instrumentierung formuliert.<br />
Für die Forschungsgebiete Magnetik und Quantenelektronik<br />
fand ebenfalls eine Reihe von<br />
Abstimmungsgesprächen zur Zukunftsgestaltung<br />
dieses gewichtigen Arbeitsfeldes statt, die aber<br />
noch nicht abgeschlossen sind.<br />
Zur Pflege des wissenschaftlichen Austauschs<br />
war das <strong>IPHT</strong> Ausrichter von Tagungen und<br />
Workshops und beteiligte sich aktiv an Ausstellungen<br />
und internationalen Messen. Im Februar<br />
traf sich der PhotonicNet-Arbeitskreis „Oberflächenbearbeitung“<br />
im <strong>IPHT</strong>. Im Mai organisierte<br />
Dr. Wolfgang Fritzsche ein internationales Symposium<br />
zur Molekularen Plasmonik. Ebenfalls im<br />
Mai versammelten sich unter der Schirmherrschaft<br />
des OPTONET e.V. Spezialisten im <strong>IPHT</strong>,<br />
um im Rahmen eines Workshops über neue<br />
Laserstrahlquellen zu diskutieren.<br />
Die Vermittlung von Forschungsergebnissen an<br />
die Öffentlichkeit war Anliegen der Beteiligung<br />
des <strong>IPHT</strong> an der Präsentation des Beutenberg<br />
Campus in Tokio im Rahmen des „Deutschlandjahres<br />
in Japan <strong>2005</strong>–2006“ sowie an den Ausstellungen<br />
Faszination Licht im Januar und Eiskalte<br />
Energien für Europa im Juli, jeweils in der<br />
<strong>Jena</strong>er Einkaufspassage Goethe-Galerie. Der<br />
öffentlichen Vermittlung von Forschungsarbeiten<br />
diente auch die Lange Nacht der Wissenschaften<br />
in <strong>Jena</strong> im November. Bis nach Mitternacht<br />
drängten sich die Besucher an den Experimenten<br />
und in den Labors.<br />
Lange Nacht der Wissenschaften:<br />

Zu einem Ehrenkolloquium war vom <strong>IPHT</strong> aus<br />
Anlass des 75. Geburtstages von Prof. Dr. Günter<br />
Albrecht im März eingeladen worden. Prof.<br />
Albrecht hat in seiner aktiven Zeit an der Universität<br />
die Forschung zur Supraleiterelektronik<br />
maßgeblich etabliert und ist damit einer der<br />
Väter dieser Forschungsrichtung im <strong>IPHT</strong>.<br />
In order to encourage scientific discussion and<br />
exchange, the <strong>IPHT</strong> organized conferences and<br />
workshops and was actively engaged in exhibitions<br />
and international fairs. In February, the PhotonicNet<br />
cluster on surface modification met at<br />
the <strong>IPHT</strong>. Dr. Wolfgang Fritzsche organized an<br />
international symposium on “Molecular Plasmonics”<br />
in May. Also in May a workshop on new laser<br />
sources was held at the <strong>IPHT</strong> under the patronage<br />
of the OPONET cluster.<br />
Several activities were aimed to present our scientific<br />
results to a broad public: the presentation<br />
of the Beutenberg campus in Tokyo/Japan as<br />
part of the German Year <strong>2005</strong>/2006, and the<br />
expositions “Fascinating Light” (in January) and<br />
“Ice-cold Energies for Europe” (in July) in the<br />
<strong>Jena</strong>’s Goethe Gallery shopping mall. With the<br />
same intention, the <strong>IPHT</strong> took part in the first<br />
“Long Night of the Sciences” in <strong>Jena</strong> in November.<br />
Till well after midnight, many interested visitors<br />
crowded the Institute’s laboratories and took<br />
part in scientific experiments.<br />
An honorary colloquium was held on the occasion<br />
of the 75 th birthday of Prof. Dr. Günther<br />
Albrecht in March. During his active years, Prof.<br />
Albrecht was a major force in establishing the<br />
research field of supraconductivity at the <strong>Jena</strong><br />
University and also became a father of this<br />
research direction at the <strong>IPHT</strong>.<br />
Another special highlight at the <strong>IPHT</strong> was a public<br />
colloquium held by Prof. Dr. Anton Zeilinger<br />
(University of Vienna) on quantum information<br />
transmission, a subject which is related to our<br />
activities in quantum electronics research. As<br />
one of a series of talks at Beutenberg campus,<br />
this talk was organized by Prof. E. Hoenig with<br />
great commitment and attracted more than 200<br />
visitors.<br />
The work of Dr. Thomas Henkel for the development<br />
of microfluidic chip systems had been<br />
acknowledged by the 2004 <strong>IPHT</strong> award. Another<br />
<strong>IPHT</strong> research award was presented to Dr. Sonja<br />
Unger, Volker Reichel and Klaus Mörl for their<br />
work on high power laser fibres with a record<br />
result of 1.3 kW output power from a single fibre.<br />
Six students of the University of Applied Sciences<br />
in <strong>Jena</strong> finished their diploma work in 2004<br />
with very good results and marks: Constanze<br />
Döring, Lars Bergmann, Ralf Bitter, Carsten Hartmann,<br />
Matthias Schnepp und Rico Stober .They<br />
received the prizes for the best <strong>IPHT</strong> diploma<br />
work, sponsored by the <strong>Jena</strong>-Saale-Holzland<br />
Savings Bank.<br />
The internal competition for the <strong>2005</strong> innovation<br />
project was decided in favor of Wolfgang Morgenroth,<br />
Dr. Uwe Hübner, Richard Boucher (Magnetics/Quantum<br />
Electronics Division), Sven<br />
Brückner, Uta Jauernig, Dr. Siegmund Schröter,<br />
Dr. Torsten Wieduwilt, Barbara Geisenhainer,<br />
Matthias Giebel, Dr. Günther Schwotzer (Optics<br />
Division), Dr. Andrea Czaki, Andrea Steinbrück,
Ein besonderer Höhepunkt war im Rahmen der<br />
von Prof. E. Hoenig mit großem Engagement<br />
organisierten öffentlichen Vortragsreihe des Beutenberg<br />
Campus eine Veranstaltung im <strong>IPHT</strong> mit<br />
Prof. Dr. Anton Zeilinger aus Wien, die über<br />
200 Besucher anlockte. Prof. Zeilinger sprach<br />
über Quanteninformationsübertragung mit Anknüpfung<br />
an unsere Arbeitsrichtung Quantenelektronik.<br />

Sensorik sowie Solarzellen“. Die erzielten<br />
Ergebnisse sind am Ende dieses Jahresberichtes<br />
zusammengefasst.<br />
Die kommerzielle Umsetzung von wissenschaftlichen<br />
Ergebnissen in Produkte ist ein besonderes<br />
Anliegen des <strong>IPHT</strong>. Auf dem Gebiet optischer<br />
Faser-Bragg-Gitter konnte dazu im Oktober <strong>2005</strong><br />
ein Gemeinschaftsunternehmen mit einem belgischen<br />
Partner unter Beteiligung des <strong>IPHT</strong>, die<br />
FBGS Technologies GmbH (Fibre Bragg Grating<br />
Sensor Technologies), mit Sitz in <strong>Jena</strong> gegründet<br />
werden. Geschäftsfelder dieses Unternehmens<br />
sind Forschung, Entwicklung, Produktion und<br />
Vermarktung von optoelektronischen Elementen,<br />
insbesondere spezielle Glasfaser-Bragg-Gitter.<br />
Der Wissenschaftliche Beirat beurteilte auf seiner<br />
jährlichen Sitzung im April die wissenschaftlichen<br />
Leistungen des <strong>IPHT</strong> als sehr beachtlich und<br />
überzeugend. Turnusmäßig ausgeschieden aus<br />
dem Wissenschaftlichen Beirat sind Dr. Siegfried<br />

<strong>IPHT</strong> Prizewinner<br />
a) Dr. Thomas Henkel,<br />
b) Klaus Mörl, Dr. Sonja Unger, Volker Reichel<br />
Dr. Wolfgang Fritzsche (Micro Systems Division)<br />
and Dr. Gudrun Andrä (Laser Technology Division)<br />
who worked on the subject of nanostructured<br />
Ta 2 O 5 layers for optochemical/biophotonic<br />
sensors and solar cells. Results are presented at<br />
the end of this annual report.<br />
The transfer into commercial use of its scientific<br />
results is a matter of special interest to the <strong>IPHT</strong>.<br />
In the field of optical Bragg gratings, we started a<br />
new company in <strong>Jena</strong> in October jointly with a<br />
Belgian company (Fibre Bragg Grating Sensor<br />
Technologies). The objects of the new company<br />
are research, development, production and sale<br />
of optoelectronic components such as especially<br />
fibre Bragg gratings.<br />
The scientific council has reviewed the scientific<br />
results of the <strong>IPHT</strong> regularly and during its<br />
meeting in April appreciated them as highly<br />
respectable and convincing. Dr. Siegfried Birkle<br />
(Siemens Erlangen), Prof. Dr. Hans Koch (PTB<br />
Berlin), and Dr. Augustin Siegel (Carl Zeiss,<br />
Oberkochen) left the council due to the end of<br />
their term. We would like to thank them for their<br />

1.1 Überblick<br />
Der Forschungsbereich Magnetik/Quantenelektronik<br />
repräsentiert in unserem Hause die<br />
Elektronik und die Materialforschung. Diese<br />
Elektronik stützt sich auf supraleitende bzw.<br />
magnetische Materialien und ist dementsprechend<br />
in Quantenelektronik und Magnetoelektronik<br />
gegliedert. Unter Quantenelektronik verstehen<br />
wir die Nutzung der Quanteneffekte der<br />
Supraleitung in mikro- und nanotechnisch hergestellten<br />
Bauelementen und Schaltungen. Die<br />
Materialforschung betrifft Supraleiter und Magnetpigmente.<br />
Die Abteilung Quantenelektronik, mit mehr als<br />
30 Mitarbeitern die weitaus größte und dynamischste<br />
im Forschungsbereich und im Institut,<br />
betreibt wesentlich unseren Reinraum und versteht<br />
sich als Systementwickler mit und für Partner<br />
und Anwender weltweit. Professionelle Qualität<br />
wird durch eine jährlich aktualisierte ISO-Zertifizierung<br />
gesichert. Eine strategische Partnerschaft<br />
besteht mit dem Fraunhofer-Institut für<br />
Angewandte Optik und Feinmechanik bei Betrieb<br />
und Anwendung der Elektronenstrahllithographie.<br />
Herausragende wissenschaftliche Ergebnisse im<br />
Jahre <strong>2005</strong> waren: (1) Weltweit erstmals wurde<br />

1.1 Overview<br />
The division Magnetics/Quantum Electronics represents<br />
the electronics and materials research in<br />
<strong>IPHT</strong>. It is based on superconducting and magnetic<br />
materials and is organized in the Quantum<br />
Electronics and Magnetoelectronics departments<br />
respectively. Quantum Electronics uses quantum<br />
effects of superconductivity in micro- and nanodevices<br />
and circuits. Materials research concerns<br />
superconductors and magnetic nanoparticles.<br />
The Quantum Electronics department, the<br />
largest and most dynamical in house, is main<br />
operator of our clean room and system developer<br />
together with and servicing partners and customers<br />
worldwide. ISO certification assures a<br />
professional quality level and is updated every<br />
year. A strategic partnership has been established<br />
with the nearby Fraunhofer Institute for<br />
Applied Optics and Precision Mechanics operating<br />
and using electron beam lithography.<br />
Highlights in the year <strong>2005</strong> have been: (1) for the<br />
first time worldwide four superconducting flux<br />
qubits have been quantum mechanically coupled<br />
and spectroscopically characterized on the route<br />
to adiabatic quantum computation; a corresponding<br />
European research partnership has been<br />
accomplished; in February the group around<br />
Dr. Ilichev was honoured with the Thuringian<br />
Research Award, (2) again as a worldwide first, a

machines to the world marked relies on our<br />
process development.<br />
We are experienced in characterising thin film<br />
interfaces and are well equipped for such investigations.<br />
ISO certification assures quality and is<br />
updated annually. Highlights have been: (1) a<br />
multiturn GMR counter for automotive applications,<br />
(2) new L-x-ray spectra as reference for<br />
instrumentation.<br />
Our Magnetics department developes superconducting<br />
and magnetic materials for power and<br />
medical engineering. The project DYNASTORE<br />
on a flywheel with our superconducting components<br />
has been extended and is expected to be<br />
finished in summer of 2006. A large project has<br />
been started on a superconducting machine testing<br />
high power combustion engines for the car<br />
industry. With “Superlife” we presented a European<br />
exhibition to the public here in <strong>Jena</strong> with our<br />
contributions. We intensify our collaboration with<br />
the IFW Dresden.<br />
Cancer therapy using our magnetic nanoparticles<br />
and corresponding heating system reported<br />

1.2 Scientific results<br />
1.2.1 Micro- and nanofabrication<br />
(Uwe Hübner, Ludwig Fritzsch,<br />
Solveig Anders, Jürgen Kunert)<br />
The microfabrication group is responsible for the<br />
maintenance of the existing micro- and nanotechnological<br />
fabrication processes for quantum<br />
electronic devices (SQUID sensors, voltage standard<br />
chips, Qubits) and other applications such<br />
as nanoscale calibration standards, photonic<br />
crystals and micro optical components, and for<br />
the development of technologies appropriate for<br />
new device requirements. In <strong>2005</strong>, 210 chromium<br />
masks and 240 electron beam direct writing<br />
exposure jobs were made using the ZBA 23H.<br />
120 masks were prepared by using the optical<br />
pattern generator MANN 3600. About 80 high<br />
resolution exposures were made using the<br />
e-beam-tool LION. For the further improvement<br />
of the electron beam lithography the software<br />
tool SCELETON was installed as a proximity<br />
function calculator.<br />
In <strong>2005</strong> a new DFG-project, “Electrooptically Tunable<br />
Photonic Crystals”, was started. The European<br />
project PLATON (PLAnar Technology for<br />
Optical Networks) and the R&D project “KALI II”<br />
were successfully finished. In the “KALI II” project<br />
a new type of nanoscale CD-standard for AFM<br />
and a “Nanoscale Linewidth/Pitch Standard”<br />
were realized. These standards consist of different<br />
grating structures etched in nanocrystalline<br />
silicon on a quartz substrate. They contain<br />
patterns on nanometer scale for the calibration<br />
and resolution-check of high-resolution optical<br />
microscopy techniques, such as deep ultraviolet<br />
microscopy and laser scanning microscopy.<br />
One important task of the year <strong>2005</strong> was to<br />
develop a process to reduce the standard 3.5 µm 2<br />
Nb/Al process to junction dimensions of 1 µm 2 .At<br />
the start of <strong>2005</strong> a chemical-mechanical polishing<br />
(CMP) machine was installed and the process<br />
of SiO 2 -planarization on 4” wafers developed. In<br />
parallel, optical lithography using a g-line stepper<br />
(AÜR, Zeiss <strong>Jena</strong>) and the RIE process for sub-<br />
µm Nb structures were optimized. A first wafer<br />
run with test structures of SQUIDs with Josephson<br />
junctions of different dimensions down to 0.8<br />
µm showed in principal the functionality of the<br />
planarization process. However, there was a<br />
large parameter spread and a small yield, caused<br />
by an insufficient reliability and overlap accuracy<br />
of the stepper and the strong dependence of the<br />
polishing rate on topology and structure dimensions.<br />
Therefore, for the ongoing test runs new<br />
technological concepts were developed including<br />
direct e-beam exposure and the CALDERA<br />
process for the CMP step in order to overcome<br />
the dimensional effects when polishing. Fig. 1.1<br />
shows a cross section of planarized SiO 2 isolated<br />
Nb lines. The standard 3.5 µm 2 Nb/Al process<br />
for SQUIDs was upgraded by integrating<br />
Nb-oxide capacitors with specific capacitances of<br />
app. 4 fF/µm 2 for areas of up to 25 mm 2 . They are<br />
used in highly balanced gradiometers for mobile<br />
SQUID system applications. The development of<br />
large area Josephson junctions for applications<br />
as x-ray detectors in synchrotron radiation experiments<br />
was started with special emphasize on<br />
the minimization of the subgap leakage currents.<br />
The first results are promising and future work will<br />
be concentrated on the preparation of sensor<br />
arrays and the implementation of different<br />
absorber materials.<br />

SiO 2 isolation.<br />
1.2.2 SQUID sensors and systems<br />
(Volkmar Schultze, Ronny Stolz,<br />
Viatcheslav Zakosarenko,<br />
Andreas Chwala, Sven Linzen,<br />
Nilolay Ukhanski, Torsten May)<br />
Except for SQIFs (Superconducting Interference<br />
Filters – a special combination of number of various<br />
SQUIDs) which are developed and produced<br />
within a long-standing cooperation with the University<br />
of Tübingen and the company QEST, all<br />
SQUID projects are based now upon the use of<br />
low temperature superconductors.<br />
In the fourth phase of the development of the<br />
LTS SQUID gradiometer system for mobile applications<br />
the second generation prototype for measuring<br />
the full tensor of the Earth’s magnetic field<br />
gradient with extremely high sensitivity was built.<br />
It features several improvements compared to its<br />
antecessors.<br />
With integrated low pass filters the frequency gap<br />
for disturbances between the system bandwidth<br />
of approximately 4 MHz and 500 MHz of the RFI<br />
screen around the cryostat could be closed.<br />
Here, the main task was the development of a<br />
technology for integrated capacitances up to 80<br />
nF. After several aborts in the past few years the<br />
successful implementation of intrinsic capacitors<br />
is a highlight in the SQUID development in <strong>2005</strong>.<br />
Now, due to these filters the new gradiometer<br />
sensors provide higher stability in environments<br />
with high frequency radiation and their intrinsic<br />
noise could be decreased down to 20 fT/(m·√Hz).<br />
The second task was to reduce the motion noise<br />
15
MAGNETIK & QUANTENELEKTRONIK / MAGNETICS & QUANTUM ELECTRONICS<br />
16<br />
of the SQUIDs caused by movements in the<br />
Earth’s magnetic field. By decreasing the width of<br />
all superconducting structures below 5 µm the<br />
critical magnetic field amplitude for flux capture<br />
could be increased up to 65 µT. Furthermore,<br />
using smaller areas of about 3000 µm 2 , the sensitivity<br />
of the three reference SQUID magnetometers<br />
was decreased. Now we are able to<br />
work even in high magnetic field amplitudes like,<br />
for instance, in the north of Canada.<br />
Further development has been done on the data<br />
acquisition unit of the system. It contains now<br />
extremely low noise differential inputs for 21 analogue<br />
channels. They are digitized with 24 bit<br />
ADC. All interactions of this unit with the SQUID<br />
system have been removed. The accuracy of the<br />
determination of the 3D position, flight direction,<br />
and orientation in space is determined from a<br />
low-power differential GPS system and a new<br />
inertial system unit containing high accuracy<br />
fiber-optical gyros. With the implementation of<br />
new lithium ion batteries the weight and geometric<br />
dimensions of the data acquisition unit have<br />
been decreased by simultaneous increase of the<br />
working period to approximately eight hours.<br />
In September <strong>2005</strong> the Earth’s magnetic field<br />
gradient of the same area (approx. 13 km × 7<br />
km), surveyed in South Africa already in 2004,<br />
was measured again. The system was used in a<br />
fixed wing configuration on a CESSNA Grand<br />
Caravan 208 airplane from Fugro Airborne Systems,<br />
where the rigidity of the stinger was<br />
increased compared to the past. In this configuration<br />
the area (1100 line kilometers) was<br />
scanned at altitudes of 80 m and line spacing of<br />
100 m. To compare the system sensitivity with the<br />
best contemporary conventional system (MIDAS<br />
system from Fugro Airborne systems), the survey<br />
was conducted with helicopter based instruments<br />
at altitudes between 35 m and 40 m and a tow<br />
rope length of 40 m. The comparison of the magnetic<br />
maps of both systems showed a superior<br />
sensitivity and spatial resolution of the full-tensor<br />
SQUID device.<br />
The development of a SQUID system for archaeological<br />
prospection within the project<br />
“ArcheNova” was finished with the end of year<br />
<strong>2005</strong>. Via various field trials the system was further<br />
improved compared to the status the year<br />
before. The final examination – and a highlight<br />
of the SQUID activities in this year – was an<br />
expedition to the Nasca/Palpa region in Peru,<br />
about 250 km south of Lima. This region is most<br />
famous because of the large geoglyphes. Our<br />
measurements were performed in coordination<br />
and cooperation with the BMBF project network<br />
“Nasca: Development and adaption of archaeometric<br />
techniques for the investigation of cultural<br />
history”.<br />
All the demands of this application – transport of<br />
the system, provision with liquid Helium, and<br />
especially the measurement in a hyper arid,<br />
dusty area – could be solved well. The measurements<br />
could even be performed with a pickup<br />
truck as a hauling system – despite a very<br />
cragged surface of the explored areas (cf. colored<br />
picture). Mappings on foot, performed for<br />
comparison, proved the same data quality of the<br />
“motorized” ones. So it was possible to map<br />
about one hectare per measurement hour, which<br />
is a remarkable gain compared to common handheld<br />
geomagnetic archaeological prospection<br />
systems. All in all more than 200 line kilometers<br />
were driven. Due to the geo-referenced positioning<br />
with the differential GPS system the results<br />
can easily be fit into photos or maps achieved<br />
with other methods.<br />
One example out of the 10 mapped areas is<br />
shown in Figure 1.2. On the ortho photo only<br />
recent plow furrows are visible. Partially they also<br />
reproduce in the magnetogram. However, there<br />
also an old riverbed comes out, magnetically<br />
detectable due to the deposition of sediments.<br />
This gives an impression on the dramatic<br />
changes the area around Nasca suffered in times<br />
before the Spanish set up to conquer South<br />
America.<br />
On other areas geometric structures came out in<br />
the magnetogram which allude to ancient settlement<br />
residues.<br />

MAGNETIK & QUANTENELEKTRONIK / MAGNETICS & QUANTUM ELECTRONICS<br />
Even though with the Peru expedition the project<br />
is formally finished, in 2006 some other field trials<br />
in Europe are planned where the potential of our<br />
system shall be used for geomagnetic prospection<br />
of archaeologically interesting sites.<br />
The most common electromagnetic method in<br />
mineral exploration is based on the application<br />
of transient Electro-Magnetics (TEM). Already in<br />
2003 a prototype of a TEM system with LTS<br />
SQUID magnetometers has been developed,<br />
which has been used routinely on several targets<br />
in Australia and South Africa in 2004 with great<br />
success.<br />
In <strong>2005</strong>, the system has been redesigned in various<br />
aspects. All components have been evaluated<br />
for the use of the system under arctic conditions.<br />
A new cryostat with a higher thermal efficiency<br />
(and the same size) helps to save liquid helium,<br />
since it now needs to be refilled every second day<br />
only. The power supply and control unit have<br />
shrunk by almost a factor of two in size. The<br />
mechanical setup has been ruggedized by changing<br />
cable, connectors, switches and cryostat installation.<br />
A new family of SQUIDs has been implemented<br />
to achieve a better stability of the working<br />
point all over the world (with different magnetic<br />
field strengths). At the end of this process it was<br />
possible to out-source the fabrication to our spinoff<br />
‘Supracon’. Two new systems have been produced<br />
there and meet all the required specifications.<br />
The first “production” system was applied in<br />
routine field work for many weeks in Australia.<br />
Already in 2001 a prototype of a directly coupled<br />
SQUID electronics for various applications has<br />
been developed. In between it has been successfully<br />
used in various applications. From 2002 on,<br />
commercial production of this electronics, completed<br />
by a digital control unit, started by our<br />
spin-off ‘Supracon’. In <strong>2005</strong> this electronics has<br />
been redesigned in many aspects. Keeping a<br />
frequency range of 7 MHz and very low input<br />
noise ~0.33 nV/Hz 1/2 (with flicker noise corner<br />
frequency ~0.1 Hz), thermodrift (~5 nV/K), maximum<br />
slew rate (~16 MΦ 0 /s) and dynamic range<br />
(170 dB) have been remarkably improved.<br />

membrane patterned in the shape of a spider<br />
web. The width of the legs is 4 µm.<br />
In the frame work of the “LABOCA” project being<br />
executed in close collaboration with the Max<br />
Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy in Bonn our<br />
group has considerably enhanced the performance<br />
of the used transition edge bolometers by<br />
developing a new technology for patterning the<br />
supporting membranes. These structured membranes,<br />
sometimes referred to as “spider-webs”<br />
(Fig. 1.3), help to lower the thermal conductivity<br />
and thereby improve the energy resolution down<br />
to values below 10 –16 W/Hz. Furthermore, we<br />
have developed a new concept of coupling the<br />
first-stage readout SQUID and the second-stage<br />
amplifier SQUID. This approach is particularly<br />
well adapted to the time domain multiplexing concept.<br />
The appropriate electronics was improved<br />
and a production prototype was built, which can<br />
be easily produced in the batches of 30 ones,<br />
needed for the 300 channel array.<br />
In parallel the LABOCA prototype system with<br />
7 channels was successfully used to image<br />
objects from a distance of a few meters in a lab<br />
environment. Imaging in the frequency band<br />
between 0.1 and 1 THz also opens the possibility<br />
of detecting potentially hazardous objects hidden<br />
underneath the clothing of suspects, for<br />
instance in security areas at airports.<br />
Together with the company Vericold Technologies<br />
we have developed and manufactured X-ray<br />
bolometers, operating at a temperature of 100 mK.<br />
They are routinely used to equip the Polaris<br />
spectrometer, an add-on for commercial electron<br />
microscopes, which can be used for finding<br />
defects in semiconducting electronic circuits.<br />
1.2.3 Integrated superconducting circuits<br />
(Gerd Wende, Marco Schubert,<br />
Torsten May, Michael Starkloff,<br />
Birger Steinbach, Hans-Georg Meyer)<br />
In <strong>2005</strong> the project “Quantum Synthesizer<br />
(QuaSy)” was successfully developed further. In<br />
the project three components – an RSFQ pulse<br />
pattern generator, a pulse amplifier, and a<br />
Josephson quantizer – are being developed by<br />
different project partners, and integrated into a<br />
Multi-Chip-Module. Within the scope of the joint<br />
project the <strong>IPHT</strong> is focused on investigations of<br />
superconducting pulse-driven microwave circuits,<br />
the so-called Josephson quantizer, and on the<br />
relevant microwave tests and measurements.<br />
Our main activities were the improvement of the<br />
fabrication technology and testing the Josephson<br />
quantizer microwave circuits. With this new technology<br />
the packing density of the Josephson<br />
17
MAGNETIK & QUANTENELEKTRONIK / MAGNETICS & QUANTUM ELECTRONICS<br />
18<br />
junctions (JJs) was increased by about one third.<br />
The critical current spread was reduced from<br />
about 10% to 2–3%. All this together results in a<br />
distinct increase of the yield of fully functional<br />
quantizer circuits.<br />
A new cooperation with the NMi Van Swinden<br />
Laboratorium B.V. in Delft, Netherlands, allowed<br />
to measure our chips in a bipolar pulse driving<br />
mode with pulse repetition frequencies of up to<br />
12 GHz. The pulse pattern generator delivers a<br />
repeating pattern of short current pulses in which<br />
the desired low frequency output waveform is<br />
encoded. By the Josephson quantizer circuit it is<br />
transformed into a pattern of quantized voltage<br />
pulses. Fig. 1.4 shows an example of the operation<br />
of a Josephson quantizer circuit with<br />
2560 JJs. In this case, a 122 kHz ac voltage was<br />
delta-sigma modulated in a 64 Mbit long pattern.<br />
The used clock frequency was 4 GHz. The left<br />
spectrum of Fig. 1.4 is delivered by the generator<br />
itself. It can be seen that there are not only the<br />
distinct higher harmonics of the fundamental but<br />
also other peaks whose origin is not yet clear.<br />
The quantizer circuit driven by the same pattern<br />
removes all of these unwanted signals as seen<br />
in the right hand side spectrum of Fig. 1.4. The<br />
amplitude of the fundamental frequency was<br />
9.5 mV with quantum accuracy and the higher<br />
harmonics were suppressed by –86 dBc. Currently,<br />
the Josephson junction array limits the<br />
maximum usable clock frequency to 4.8 GHz and<br />
the maximum ac voltage amplitude to 9.5 mV.<br />
Therefore, the major task for the next few months<br />
is to increase the chip bandwidth in order to<br />
increase the maximum ac voltage amplitude.<br />

modulated 122 kHz sine wave with an<br />

Delivered by the generator itself. Right spectrum:<br />
Output signal of the JJ array quantizer, pulse-driven<br />

suppression of the higher harmonics is –86 dBc.<br />
Josephson quantizer and 10 V Josephson voltage<br />
standard chips with almost 20,000 JJs are the<br />
most highly integrated superconductive circuits<br />
provided commercially. Worldwide only HYPRES<br />
Inc. (USA) and the <strong>IPHT</strong> are able to offer such<br />
10 V Josephson voltage standard circuits. In <strong>2005</strong><br />
the <strong>IPHT</strong> delivered quantizer chips and 10 V chips<br />
to several national metrology laboratories.<br />
In <strong>2005</strong> a complete microprocessor controlled<br />
10 V Josephson voltage standard system was<br />
developed. The system facilitates a variety of DC<br />
voltage calibrations and measuring functions:<br />
Calibration of secondary DC-reference Zeners<br />
and testing of the linearity and accuracy of DCvoltmeters<br />
and DC-calibrators in the voltage<br />
range of 0 to ±10 V. It was successfully evaluated<br />
at the PTB in Braunschweig. A direct comparison<br />
of the <strong>IPHT</strong> Josephson voltage standard<br />
with the PTB one showed a voltage difference<br />
between both standards of only 0.7 nV, with a<br />
measurement uncertainty of 3.4 nV. This corresponds<br />
to an accuracy of 7 × 10 –11 . So, the <strong>IPHT</strong><br />
system compares to the primary standards of the<br />
national metrology institutes.<br />
1.2.4 Quantum computing<br />
(Evgeni Il’ichev, Miroslav Grajcar,<br />
Andrei Izmalkov, Thomas Wagner,<br />
Sven Linzen, Uwe Hübner,<br />
Simon van der Ploeg, Daniel Wittig)<br />
Approximately ten years ago it was demonstrated<br />
theoretically that a quantum computer can solve<br />
some problems much more effectively than a<br />
classical one. This discovery has stimulated an<br />
effort to find a physical system which can be<br />
used as a qubit, the building block of a quantum<br />
computer.<br />
Amongst the many systems in physics which can<br />
be used as a qubit, one is the so-called persistent<br />
current qubit. This qubit consists of a small<br />
inductance superconducting loop with three<br />
Josephson junctions. Such superconducting<br />
qubits have several advantages over qubits<br />
based on microscopic systems: there is no principal<br />
limitation in their number and they can be<br />
accessed and controlled individually.<br />
We proposed a specific implementation for adiabatic<br />
quantum computing with a set of coupled<br />
superconducting flux qubits, which can be fabricated<br />
with the present state of the art. We could<br />
show that our measurement setup – the impedance<br />
measurement technique – can be effectively<br />
used to read out the results of the adiabatic<br />
evolution algorithm.<br />
In order to demonstrate any quantum algorithm, a<br />
coupling between qubits must be implemented.<br />
We proposed implementing the coupling between<br />
two qubits through a shared Josephson junction.<br />
We have experimentally demonstrated direct antiferromagnetic<br />
Josephson coupling between two<br />
persistent current qubits. The coupling strength<br />
can be of the order of a Kelvin, and agrees with<br />
theoretical predictions to the expected accuracy.<br />
Moreover, the resulting coupling not only is<br />
strong, but can also be varied independent of<br />
other design parameters by choosing the shared<br />
junction’s size.
MAGNETIK & QUANTENELEKTRONIK / MAGNETICS & QUANTUM ELECTRONICS<br />
We implemented a “twisted” design which exhibits<br />
the ferromagnetic coupling. It was done by fabricating<br />
and studying a four–qubit circuit (Fig. 1.5)<br />
in which the two types of coupling co-exist. This is<br />
very promising from the perspectives of realizing<br />
nontrivial Ising-spin systems and scalable adiabatic<br />
quantum computing. This world-wide first<br />
coupling of four superconducting qubits clearly is<br />
a highlight of our work in <strong>2005</strong>. The acquired data<br />
fully agree with a quantum-mechanical description<br />
to the experimental accuracy.<br />
For superconducting qubits the problem of decoherence<br />
is one of the most important. In order to<br />
get additional information about the qubits<br />
dynamics we proposed a new tool – low frequency<br />
Rabi spectroscopy for a two-level system. In<br />
principal we have analyzed the interaction of a<br />
dissipative two-level quantum system with highand<br />
low-frequency excitation. The system is continuously<br />
and simultaneously irradiated by these<br />
two waves. If the frequency of the first signal is<br />
close to the level separation, the response of the<br />
system exhibits undamped low-frequency oscillations<br />
whose amplitude has a clear resonance at<br />
the Rabi frequency with the width being dependent<br />
on the damping rates of the system. Therefore,<br />
by analyzing the experimental data, decoherence<br />
as well as relaxation times can be reconstructed.<br />
We have also experimentally and theoretically<br />
investigated combined superconductor-semiconductor<br />
structures. The measurement of the<br />
supercurrent-phase relationship of a ballistic<br />
Nb/InAs(2DES)/Nb junction in the temperature<br />
range from 1.3 K to 9 K using impedance measurement<br />
technique showed at low temperatures<br />
substantial deviations of the supercurrent-phase<br />
relationship from conventional tunnel-junction<br />
behaviour, as has to be expected for highly transparent<br />
interfaces. Reasonable agreement between<br />
theory and experiment was found.<br />
The whole work of the quantum computing group<br />
was honoured already in the preceding year with<br />
the Thuringian Research Award. The actual<br />
awards ceremony happened in the year <strong>2005</strong>,<br />
shown in the colored picture.<br />
These good results, ever again presented in<br />
important scientific journals, also reflect in a<br />
steadily growing embedding in international<br />
cooperation. To allow for the growing number of<br />
measurements coming along with this, a second<br />
mK-cryostat had to be set up, what was connected<br />
with the preparation of an additional specially<br />
prepared room for it.<br />
So, in combination of these further improving<br />
measurement conditions and the scientific potential<br />
of the quantum computing group its position<br />
in the emerging field of quantum computing could<br />
further be strengthened.<br />

1.2.5 Foundry service<br />
(Wolfgang Morgenroth, Ludwig Fritzsch,<br />
Torsten May, Jürgen Kunert,<br />
Birger Steinbach, Gerd Wende,<br />
Hans-Georg Meyer)<br />
The <strong>Jena</strong> Superconductive Electronics Foundry<br />
(JeSEF) was founded in 1997. It uses the knowhow<br />
and the competitive infrastructure for niobium<br />
and YBCO technology of the department of<br />
Quantum Electronics. The foundry provides customers<br />
with LTS SQUIDs and SQUID systems,<br />
RSFQ circuits, Josephson voltage standard circuits,<br />
components and systems, and with microfabrication<br />
items including the design and fabrication<br />
of lithography masks. Further, the foundry<br />
offers technological services like single manufacturing<br />
steps, using our cleanroom facilities, as<br />
well as characterization services of our well<br />
equipped laboratories. JeSEF and the department<br />
of Quantum Electronics have been ISO<br />
9001:2000 certified since 2002.<br />
About 40 orders were processed in <strong>2005</strong>. Our<br />
main customers for SQUIDs and Microfabrication<br />
were Supracon AG, THEVA GmbH, Bruker<br />
BioSpin GmbH, and Jenoptik LOS GmbH. Voltage<br />
standard circuits and components were<br />
delivered to the University of Naples and to the<br />
national metrology laboratories of the Netherlands,<br />
France, and Korea.<br />
1.2.6 Domain wall motion in small GMR<br />
structures<br />
(Roland Mattheis, Hardy Köbe,<br />
Dominique Schmidt, Uwe Hübner,<br />

The motion of domain walls in narrow stripes represents<br />
the key element for new magneto-<br />
19
MAGNETIK & QUANTENELEKTRONIK / MAGNETICS & QUANTUM ELECTRONICS<br />
20<br />
electronic devices like magnetic logic, stacked<br />
MRAM, and our multiturn sensor. We investigated<br />
domain wall motion in 500 µm long stripes of a<br />
GMR stack with NiFe as the sensing layer. The<br />
stripes were prepared using e-beam lithography<br />
and Ar ion milling.<br />
Fig. 1.6: GMR stripe with domain wall generator:<br />
a) Temporal evolution of voltage (proportional to<br />
R) of a 220 nm wide stripe; b) distribution of the<br />
field strength H inj ; c) distribution of the length covered<br />
during the first domain wall jump; d) distribution<br />
of the field strength H mov > H inj necessary for<br />
completion of the domain wall movement through<br />
the stripe.<br />
Stripe widths of between 150 and 300 nm and<br />
thicknesses of the NiFe layer of between 5 and<br />
20 nm, cause large shape anisotropy and, as a<br />
consequence, high fields H nuc were needed for a<br />
domain wall nucleation in the stripe. Some stripes<br />
have an 6 µm × 10 µm large area (domain wall<br />
generator) at one end, in which a 180° domain<br />
wall is generated upon rotation of a field of<br />
strength H gen and injected into the stripe at a field<br />
strength H inj (with H nuc > H mov > H inj > H gen ). The<br />
field dependencies of the 180° domain wall injection,<br />
of the domain wall velocity, and of the<br />
processes of pinning and depinning in our stripes<br />
were determined from the resistance changes of<br />
the GMR stack, by measuring the R(t)-curve and<br />
statistically interpreting 500 repeated experiments.<br />
As shown in Fig. 1.6a during a linear increase of<br />
the magnetic field a domain wall was injected at<br />
5.3 kA/m and pinned after travelling about 70 µm,<br />
140 µm, and 270 µm, as derived from the relative<br />
voltage jump. The distribution of the injection field<br />
H inj in Fig. 1.6b clearly shows a twofold Gaussian<br />
distribution. These two peaks are presumably<br />
caused by the two possible types of domain<br />
walls, transverse and vortex-like domain walls,<br />
whose injection into the stripe is dependent on<br />
the magnetic reversal process in the domain wall<br />
generator. As displayed in Fig. 1.6c the domain<br />
wall can be pinned during movement through the<br />
stripe at nearly all parts of the wire, thereby<br />
showing the stochastic nature of domain wall<br />
movement. The pinning probability exhibits a<br />
double peak near 100 µm. In most cases the<br />
domain wall is pinned twice during passage. The<br />
magnetic field for passing through the complete<br />
stripe is depictured in Fig 1.6d. The wide distribution<br />
of this field again indicates the stochastical<br />
nature of domain wall motion, pinning and depinning.<br />
Edge roughness probably causes this statistically<br />
distributed pinning. Magnetic fields H mov<br />
of about 9.5 kA/m are sufficient to move the<br />
domain wall completely through the 500 µm long<br />
stripes.<br />
In some stripes with a domain wall generator single<br />
defects seem to occur. These cause strong<br />
pinning for every domain transition. The field<br />
strength necessary to overcome this strong pinning<br />
varies from experiment to experiment within<br />
a factor of 3. One such strong defect near the<br />
domain wall generator enabled us to determine<br />
the field dependence of the domain wall velocity.<br />
As shown in Fig. 1.7 we get a linear field dependence<br />
of the domain wall velocity v. Within some<br />
µs a domain wall can move through the whole<br />
stripe. The domain wall mobility of 17 (m/s)/<br />
(kA/m) is low compared to that obtained in largearea<br />
NiFe layers and is comparable to that found<br />
by other groups in narrow stripes at comparatively<br />
high magnetic fields. The minimum field H inj for<br />
any domain wall movement in 200 nm wide<br />
stripes is of the order of 4 kA/m.

annual report 2004) and included thermal relaxation<br />
processes in our model used to analyse the<br />
experimental non-equilibrium torque curves L(Φ).<br />
Furthermore, we performed time dependent<br />
measurements which directly show relaxation at<br />
T = 10 K.<br />
L(Φ) is the irreversible contribution to the torque<br />
exerted on the F/AF film by an in-plane rotating<br />
strong magnetic field after a rotation reversal<br />
from the cw to ccw sense. Beginning at the reversal<br />
point (Φ = 0), the film grains of coupling<br />
strength j change their magnetic states from one<br />
equilibrium (cw) to a new one (ccw) at characteristic<br />
angles Φ(j). Thus L(Φ) reflects P(j) and we<br />
derive<br />
P(j) = 1/(S(Kt) 2 ) * G(β S (j),Φ) * d 2 L(Φ)/dΦ 2 ,<br />
where S, K, and t are the area, anisotropy constant,<br />
and thickness of the AF film, respectively.<br />
The function G was calculated in the frame of a<br />
Stoner-Wohlfarth model for 3-axial anisotropy<br />
(inset of Fig. 1.9). This model describes for a single<br />
grain the magnetization angles β S (j/Kt) at<br />
which the coupled AF net moment switches from<br />
one AF anisotropy axis to the next, thus contributing<br />
to the irreversible torque L(Φ). Thermal energy<br />
reduces this switching angle β S (j,T)< β S (j,0) as<br />
demonstrated in Fig. 1.9, because within the<br />
measuring time t > τ =10 –9 s * exp(E B /k B T) an<br />
energy barrier E B can be overcome. This must be<br />
considered also at T = 10 K because the grain<br />
volume V E B is very small. As an example<br />
In stripes without a domain wall generator the<br />
domain wall nucleates at one end of the stripe at<br />
a field strength H nuc = 18–26 kA/m and moves<br />
through the line within some µs. The peak field is<br />
inversely proportional to the stripe width and has<br />
a very narrow Gaussian distribution (σ ~ 0.8% of<br />
the peak field) as shown in Fig. 1.8. This field is<br />
larger than the field necessary to overcome every<br />
pinning and corresponds to the coercitive field<br />
strength H C .<br />
1.2.7 Measurement of coupling strength<br />
distribution in exchange bias film<br />
systems<br />
(Klaus Steenbeck, Roland Mattheis)<br />
The exchange bias field and the coercitivity of<br />
ferro-/antiferromagnetic (F/AF) coupled polycrystalline<br />
film systems for magnetoelectronics<br />
strongly depend on the coupling strength j of the<br />
individual grains, with their distribution function<br />
P(j) in the grain ensemble. Until now P(j) was not<br />
measurable.<br />
We quantified our proposed method to determine<br />
P(j) with low temperature torquemetry (see <strong>IPHT</strong><br />

film determined from torque measurements at<br />

is responsible for the irreversible torque contributions,<br />
can be recorded by the method. The result<br />
shows that most of the grains have low coupling<br />
energies and that the portion of strongly coupled<br />
grains continuously decreases with increasing j.<br />
The value of K used was estimated using information<br />
from exchange bias measurements.<br />

same order of magnitude as those given by<br />

different from those given by W&J.<br />

General material development<br />
Any application requires material with good and<br />
reproducible quality. This is provided by our batch<br />
process. We are able to prepare several sizes of<br />
monoliths according to the requirements of the<br />
application (D. Litzkendorf).<br />
To enlarge the monoliths size and to improve the<br />
magnetic properties we concentrated on the<br />
multi-seeding technique where several seeds<br />
were placed on the monoliths.<br />
Both and growth fronts were investigated<br />
used polarised light microscopy (J. Bierlich,<br />
PhD work). In both orientations a transport<br />
current across the grain boundaries is observed<br />
in the trapped field profile. The seeds have to be<br />
oriented with an accuracy of about 3° in a distance<br />
less than 5 mm. Fig. 1.13 shows a monolith<br />
with a size of 78 * 38 * 18 mm 3 where 7 seeds<br />
in orientation were applied. The trapped<br />
field profile (Fig. 1.14) represents a transport current<br />
across all grain boundaries.<br />

and results with all European specialists.<br />
Applications<br />
In co-operation with MAI Moscow motor tests at<br />
temperatures at 20 K were performed. Small<br />
scale reluctance motors were tested at the MAI<br />
Moscow. The power output of an YBCO-motor<br />
increased from 500 W at 77 K to 1500 W at 20 K<br />
and 3000 rpm.<br />
In <strong>2005</strong> we and our project-partners Oswald<br />
Elektromotoren GmbH, MAI Moscow, and Arburg<br />
GmbH developed first designs for the BMBF-project<br />
“Hochdynamischer HTSL Motor”.<br />

In <strong>2005</strong> the final detailed system design was realized<br />
for the Dynastore project. We finished the<br />

Public awareness<br />
Under the patronage of the Thuringian minister<br />
of education and cultural affairs Prof. J. Goebel<br />
we organised an interactive exhibition “Eiskalte<br />
Energie für Europa” from June 29 to July 2 in the<br />
GoetheGalerie <strong>Jena</strong> (Fig. 1.15). The exhibition was<br />
developed in the frame of EU-project “SUPER-<br />
LIFE” in co-operation with the Budapest University<br />
for Technology and Economics (co-ordination),<br />
ICMAB Barcelona, ISMRA Caen, Oxford University,<br />
Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, S-Metall<br />
Budapest and Sydcraft. After contacting schools<br />
within a range of 100 km around <strong>Jena</strong> we organized<br />
50 guided tours through the exhibition to<br />
bring superconductivity near to the young students.<br />
During the exhibition we counted 2000 persons<br />
testing the human levitator.<br />
Fig. 1.16: Rotor of the first MgB 2 HTS motor.<br />
set-up for motor tests at 21K was constructed and<br />
the motor tests were performed. Test results are<br />
shown in Fig. 1.17. At 20 K this motor showed an<br />
output power of 1300 W at 3000 rpm.<br />

In addition we showed levitation during the “Highlights<br />
der Physik <strong>2005</strong>” in Berlin, at Siemens<br />
Nürnberg, during the “Lange Nacht der Wissenschaften”<br />
in <strong>Jena</strong> and Erlangen, and at the<br />
Solvay headquarters Hannover. Also we contributed<br />
our human levitator to the TV-science<br />
magazine “Galileo”.<br />
1.2.10 Characterization and application<br />
of bulk MgB 2<br />
(Wolfgang Gawalek, Tobias Habisreuther,<br />
Matthias Zeisberger)<br />
The first motor with MgB 2 elements world-wide<br />
was constructed by ISM Kiev, MAI Moscow and<br />
<strong>IPHT</strong> <strong>Jena</strong> (Fig. 1.16).<br />
ISM Kiev produced several MgB 2 plates. In <strong>Jena</strong><br />
they were characterized and machined to function<br />
elements. At the MAI Moscow the experimental<br />

The DFG project “Neue Werkstoffe für die<br />
Energietechnik: Magnesiumdiborid” was successfully<br />
enroled.<br />
1.2.11 Preparation of magnetic materials<br />
(Robert Müller)<br />
In the frame of the DFG-priority program spectroscopic<br />
investigations (University Bonn) on glass<br />
crystallised Ba-ferrite BaFe 12–2x Ti x Co x O 19 magnetic<br />
particles were continued with respect to the<br />
problem of reduced magnetisation in nanoparticles<br />
(“magnetic dead layer”).<br />
Experiments to prepare magnetite or maghemite<br />
nanoparticles in the 20 nm-range for medical<br />
applications by glass crystallisation as well as by<br />
cyclic wet chemical precipitation were continued.<br />
Essential points of interest are the optimisation of<br />
nucleation and the growth onto given particles<br />
without further nucleation (see Fig. 1.18), respectively.<br />
Mean particles sizes >30 nm could be

number of cycles (i.e. on increasing mean size<br />
from 11 to 26 nm).<br />
realised. Bigger particles in size distributions with<br />
mean values > ≈25 nm are magnetically too hard<br />
to give a high loss power at the small field amplitudes<br />
required for medical treatment.<br />
Experiments on covering the particles by a biocompatible<br />
layer (dextran) were started in the<br />
frame of a diploma thesis. Stable suspensions with<br />
17 nm-particles (mean value) could be prepared.<br />
Investigations on magnetic properties were done<br />
as well in cooperation with partners on Co-particles,<br />
encapsulated particles (FZK, DFG-program),<br />
hard-magnetic Ba-ferrite particles (TU<br />
Ilmenau), iron oxide particles and ferrofluids with<br />
different polymer surface layers (University Düsseldorf,<br />
DFG-program) and iron oxide microspheres<br />
(HKI <strong>Jena</strong>).<br />
1.2.12 Biomedical applications of magnetic<br />
nanoparticles<br />
(Rudolf Hergt, Matthias Zeisberger)<br />
In the last years magnetic nanoparticles (MNP)<br />
found increasing interest in various biomedical<br />
applications as for instance superparamagnetic<br />
contrast agents for MRI, cellular separation and<br />
refinement, drug delivery, gene magnetofection<br />
and magnetic biochips. One important new therapy<br />
method entering now clinical application is<br />
magnetic particle hyperthermia and thermoablation<br />
which is under development in the group of<br />
the <strong>IPHT</strong> in co-operation with the Institute for<br />
Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology (IDIR,<br />
Prof. W. A. Kaiser) of the Clinics of the University<br />
<strong>Jena</strong>. Within the frame of the DFG-priority program<br />
“Colloidal Magnetic Fluids” foundations for<br />
therapy of breast carcinoma by magnetic particle<br />
injection were provided and the fundamentals of<br />
the second therapy generation, the “Antibody<br />
Mediated Targeting of Nanoparticles” (AMTN)<br />
were laid down. The experimental setup developed<br />
in co-operation with IDIR for first clinical trials<br />
was further improved considering reliability<br />
and comfortability for patients. For the developed<br />
apparatus as well the special magnetic particle<br />
suspension to be injected for tumour therapy two<br />
patents were filed.<br />
The new method of AMTN is presently under<br />
investigation in the frame of the DFG-project<br />
“Magnetic heat treatment of breast tumours with<br />
multivalent magnetic nanoparticles” (HE2878/9-2)<br />
in co-operation with Prof. Kaiser (IDIR). The goal<br />
is the coupling of three strategies of tumour therapy:<br />
combination of hyperthermia by magnetic<br />
nanoparticles with antibody-targeting and chemoor<br />
radiotherapy. Therefore, functional molecular<br />
groups (e.g. tumour-specific antibodies and cisplatin)<br />
will be coupled to the carboxymethyldextran<br />
coating of maghemite nanoparticles. There, a till<br />
now not satisfyingly solved problem is the preparation<br />
of MNP which provide sufficient specific<br />
heating power (SHP). While suitable MNP with<br />
moderate values of SHP are available now for the<br />
direct intratumoural injection method, the target<br />
concentrations expected for AMNT are so low that<br />
at least an order of magnitude higher SHP is<br />
needed. Theoretical modelling of the heat generation<br />
by magnetic nanoparticles in a tumour<br />
showed that for large tumours (some cm) SHP of<br />
more than 1 kW/g is needed, a value which is even<br />
increasing with decreasing tumour size. Such a<br />
high value of SHP was found by our group till now<br />
only for magnetosomes synthesized by magnetotactical<br />
bacteria (co-operation with Dr. Schüler,<br />
MPI Marine Microbiology Bremen). Unfortunately,<br />
those particles are available only in small amounts<br />
and – more importantly – they lack biocompatibility<br />
due to the bacteria proteins of their coating. Our<br />
investigations have shown that a maximum of<br />
magnetic losses occurs in the transition region<br />
between superparamagnetic and stable single<br />
domain particles. For maghemite or magnetite this<br />
is just the mean size of about 30 nm found for<br />
magnetosomes. However, screening with respect<br />
to magnetic properties, in particular losses, for<br />
various MNP types prepared by chemical precipitation<br />
resulted in nearly one order of magnitude<br />
lower SHP. As a reason, the too broad size distribution<br />
as well as a magnetic coupling of MNP is<br />
supposed and is subject of present investigations.<br />
Besides efforts with particle preparation described<br />
in the previous section. An apparatus for magnetic<br />
size fractionation was developed which is under<br />
investigation, now. Another way towards large values<br />
of SHP is the application of MNP with higher<br />
magnetic moment e.g. FePt or Co. The latter ones<br />
are presently magnetically investigated with<br />
encouraging results (co-operation with Prof. Bönnemann,<br />
FKZ).<br />
In co-operation with the University of Applied Sciences<br />
<strong>Jena</strong> (Prof. Andrä, Prof. Bellemann, Dept.<br />
Biomedical Engineering) a pharmaceutical capsule<br />
for the remote controlled drug release is in<br />
development. The release mechanism is based<br />
on the heating of a magnetic absorber in an alternating<br />
magnetic field. By in-vitro investigations<br />
the remote controlled release was realised and a<br />
clinical study is under preparation.<br />

Ein wichtiges internationales Forum zur Diskussion<br />
von modernen Sensoranwendungen optischer<br />
Fasern war die 17. Optical Fibre Sensors<br />
Konferenz (OFS) in Brügge/Belgien im Mai <strong>2005</strong>,<br />
an der das <strong>IPHT</strong> sowohl organisatorisch als auch<br />
inhaltlich maßgeblich mitwirkte (Prof. Reinhardt<br />
Willsch und Dr. Wolfgang Ecke als Conference<br />
Chairs). Das <strong>IPHT</strong> war mit fünf wissenschaftlichen<br />
Beiträgen einschließlich einem eingeladenen<br />
Vortrag (Prof. Hartmut Bartelt) und einem<br />
viel beachteten Ausstellungsstand vertreten, der<br />
unsere starke Stellung auf diesem Forschungsgebiet<br />
deutlich machte. Die internationale<br />
Rekordbeteiligung von ca. 500 Teilnehmern aus<br />
mehr als 40 Ländern an dieser seit 1983 stattfindenden<br />
Konferenz zeigte generell das wachsende<br />
Interesse an Anwendungen optischer Fasern<br />
in der Sensor- und Messtechnik. Dieser internationalen<br />
Entwicklung folgte auch die Ausgründung<br />
zu Fasergitter-Sensorkomponenten unter<br />
dem Namen FBGS Technologies GmbH aus dem<br />
<strong>IPHT</strong> gemeinsam mit einer belgischen Partnerfirma<br />
im Oktober <strong>2005</strong>. Die technischen Grundlagen<br />
zu diesem Arbeitsfeld, nämlich die Möglichkeit<br />
der Erzeugung von Faser-Bragg-Gittern mit<br />
einem einzelnen Laserpuls während des Faserziehens,<br />
wurde dazu im vergangenen Jahr weiter<br />
ausgebaut. Die Herstellung von solchen Gittern<br />
mit bis zu 50% Reflexion (Typ I) demonstriert die<br />
weltweit führende Rolle des <strong>IPHT</strong> und seiner<br />
Ausgründung in dieser Technologie. Mit dem Firmenstandort<br />
im Technologie- und Innovationspark<br />
am Campus Beutenberg in <strong>Jena</strong> ist auch<br />
zukünftig die Basis für eine enge Zusammenarbeit<br />
mit dem <strong>IPHT</strong> gesichert. Anwendungsfelder<br />
der Arbeiten des <strong>IPHT</strong> betrafen im Sensorbereich<br />
im vergangenen Jahr vor allem temperaturbeständige<br />
faseroptische Bragg-Gitter-Sensoren<br />
für das Turbinen- und Triebwerksmonitoring,<br />
Fasergitter-Sensornetzwerke für die strukturintegrierte<br />
Zustandsüberwachung in der Bahntechnik<br />
und in Windenergieanlagen sowie opto-chemische<br />
Fasersensorsysteme für die in-situ-<br />
Gewässeranalytik. Die Entwicklung neuartiger<br />
Fasern etwa unter Nutzung von Mikro- und Nanostrukturen,<br />
die Weiterentwicklung photonischer<br />
Kristallfasern und Arbeiten zu temperaturbeständigen<br />
Coatings bildeten dazu einen wichtigen<br />
technologischen Hintergrund.<br />
Die Arbeiten zu optischen Faserlasern finden<br />
zunehmendes Anwendungsinteresse und wurden<br />
insbesondere unter Aspekten speziell strukturierter<br />
und dotierter Faserkerne zur Optimierung<br />
der Stabilität und der Pumpeffizienz weitergeführt.<br />
Die Aktualität dieses Forschungsgebietes<br />
zeigte sich auch auf einem Workshop des<br />
OptoNet Clusters, „Neue Laserstrahlquellen“, der<br />
im Mai <strong>2005</strong> mit ca. 100 Teilnehmern am <strong>IPHT</strong><br />
organisiert und veranstaltet wurde. Kompetenz<br />
zu strukturierten Wellenleitern konnte erfolgreich<br />
auch für Sensoranwendungen in speziellen planaren<br />
Strukturen genutzt werden.<br />
A major international forum in <strong>2005</strong> for the discussion<br />
of modern sensor applications of optical<br />
fibres was the 17 th Optical Fibre Sensors Conference<br />
(OFS) in May <strong>2005</strong> in Bruges (Belgium) with<br />
major organizational and scientific involvement of<br />
the <strong>IPHT</strong> (Prof. Willsch as technical chair and Dr.<br />
Ecke as program chair). The <strong>IPHT</strong> took part in<br />
this conference with 5 presentations including an<br />
invited talk (Prof. Hartmut Bartelt) and a well-recognized<br />
exhibition booth indicating its strong<br />
position in this research field. The record international<br />
participation (approx. 500 participants from<br />
40 countries) in this conference of a series started<br />
in 1983 underlines the growing interest in<br />
such modern applications of optical fibres. Following<br />
such demands for applications, the <strong>IPHT</strong><br />
became involved (together with a Belgian partner)<br />
in the founding of a new company for the<br />
development and application of draw tower fibre<br />
gratings in October <strong>2005</strong> (FBGS Technologies).<br />
The technological basis of inscribing fibre Bragg<br />
gratings during the fibre drawing process with a<br />
single laser pulse has been further developed in<br />
<strong>2005</strong>. The making of such gratings (type I) with a<br />
reflection efficiency of up to 50% has demonstrated<br />
the international leading competence in<br />
this technology of the <strong>IPHT</strong> and of the newly<br />
founded company. The headquarters of the<br />
FBGS company being placed at the Beutenberg<br />
campus in <strong>Jena</strong> ensures future close cooperation.<br />
Investigations into sensor applications of optical<br />
fibres covered especially temperature-stable fibre<br />
Bragg grating sensor systems for turbine and<br />
engine monitoring, fibre grating sensor networks<br />
for integrated diagnosis in train systems and in<br />
wind energy converters, and opto-chemical sensors<br />
for in-situ water analysis.<br />
The development of new types of fibres with<br />
micro- and nanostructures, developments for<br />
photonic crystal fibres and activities for coatings<br />
with high temperature stability were important<br />
cornerstones for these activities.<br />
The applications of fibre lasers are gaining growing<br />
interest and have been pursued with regard to<br />
specially structured and doped fibre cores, e.g.<br />
for optimization of pumping efficiency and stability.<br />
The general interest in this research field<br />
became obvious also by strong participation (15<br />
scientific presentations, 100 participants) in a<br />
workshop on new laser sources held at the <strong>IPHT</strong><br />
in cooperation with the OptoNet cluster. The competence<br />
in structured waveguides was additionally<br />
exploited for sensor applications in specific planar<br />
waveguides.<br />
The results presented in this report indicate that<br />
optical fibres indeed offer attractive research subjects<br />
for the future and also promise fruitful applications<br />
jointly with the complementary research<br />
field of photonic instrumentation within the <strong>IPHT</strong>.<br />

2.2. Scientific Results<br />
2.2.1 Flame hydrolysis technique (FHD)<br />
for the preparation of advanced<br />
optical materials<br />
(C. Aichele, St. Grimm, M. Köhler,<br />
K. Schuster)<br />
The flame hydrolysis technique allows the production<br />
of highest quality silica. This material is<br />
primarily used for planar optical waveguide<br />
devices and components or for the deposition of<br />
substrate tubes by OVD (Outside Vapor Deposition).<br />
To utilize the potential of this technology we<br />
are engaged in new applications.<br />
The recent concentration of microlithography on<br />
an excitation wavelength of 193 nm requires an<br />
improvement of the optical materials and devices<br />
used.<br />
For high power density and excellent replication<br />
quality, materials are necessary which provide<br />
special, very well-defined properties in terms of<br />
optical quality as well as type and distribution of<br />
the dopant hydrogen. The flame hydrolysis technique<br />
enables the preparation of a high-quality<br />
quartz glass material combined with the implementation<br />
of different dopant distributions in a<br />
wide range.<br />
Fig. 2.1: FHD-configuration.<br />
A further miniaturization of the structure at the<br />
same excitation wavelength can be achieved by<br />
what is known as immersion lithography. Aqueous<br />
fluids (immersions) with a still higher refractive<br />
index than standard materials and good optical<br />
transparency are particularly suitable for<br />
these processes.<br />
By flame hydrolysis it is possible to prepare highly<br />
pure, oxidic particles with a main size of about<br />
5–10 nm and a narrow particle size distribution.<br />
These oxidic materials can be used as additives<br />
to water to increase its refractive index for application<br />
as an immersion medium.<br />
Figure 2.1 shows the burner configuration used<br />
for the FHD technique.<br />
2.2.2 Materials for fibre lasers: Preparation<br />
and properties<br />
(S. Unger, A. Schwuchow, S. Grimm,<br />
V. Reichel, J. Kirchhof)<br />
Recently, the performance of rare earth doped<br />
high-power silica fibre lasers has been dramatically<br />
increased with output powers beyond 1 kW,<br />
high efficiency and excellent beam quality.<br />
This progress is due to new design concepts<br />
such as non-symmetrical double clads and large<br />
mode area core structures, but also by careful tailoring<br />
of the material properties. Extreme power<br />
load and complicated fibre structures make high<br />
demands on preparation technology and materials.<br />
However, up to now still little is known about<br />
the influence of the material and the preparation<br />
technology on the laser efficiency.<br />
Here, the absorption and emission properties of<br />
silica based ytterbium doped preforms, made by<br />
Modified Chemical Vapor Deposition (MCVD)<br />
and solution doping, and of the drawn fibres were<br />
investigated in dependence on the atmosphere<br />
during the preform collapsing.<br />
The preparation was carried out under oxidizing<br />
and reducing conditions (helium/carbon monoxide/hydrogen).<br />
The absorption measurements on<br />
preforms and fibres with nominally identical compositions<br />
have shown the following results:<br />
– All Yb doped preform samples show the typical<br />
Yb 3+ absorption in the wavelength region<br />
between 800 and 1100 nm, and the absorption<br />
coefficient is not remarkably changed by modifications<br />
during the preparation process.

2.2.4 Photonic crystal fibres for innovative<br />
applications and devices<br />
(J. Kobelke, K. Schuster, J. Kirchhof,<br />
A. Schwuchow, K. Mörl, K. Oh)<br />
OPTIK / OPTICS<br />

Photonic crystal fibres (PCFs) are commonly<br />
interesting as transmission media over long distances<br />
for their specific light propagation behaviour.<br />
However, the promising application potential<br />
of photonic crystal fibres also takes effect in various<br />
novel devices, e.g. PCFs with defect super<br />
lattice structure and PCF-based NxN fibre couplers.<br />
Such PCF couplers have a power stability<br />
advantage, because they can be manufactured<br />
without any dopants in the basic silica. Moreover,<br />
the transmission behaviour is mostly effected by<br />
air hole confinement light propagation, so a high<br />
numerical aperture is possible. Typical power limitations<br />
of polymer-clad fibre can be avoided by<br />
the air-clad design.<br />
We prepared special large mode area PCFs by<br />
variation of the geometric cross section design<br />
parameters. They were changed by introduction<br />
of a flexible defect in the lattice structure. The<br />
new defect design consists of the central air hole,<br />
surrounded by a holey germanium-doped silica<br />
ring. It provides a large-area annulus-mode light<br />
propagation and a chromatic dispersion with low<br />
slope ~0.05 ps/km nm 2 at 1550 nm.<br />
Fig. 2.4: Calculated dispersion curves of fundamental<br />
modes of different d core /Λ core of the super<br />
lattice PCF. Inset: fibre micrograph.<br />
PCFs with air-clad design are interesting components<br />
for optical devices. 2×2 and 4×4 multimode<br />
air-clad holey fibre couplers were prepared<br />
at the Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology<br />
(GIST), South Korea, based on <strong>IPHT</strong>-manufactured<br />
PCFs. The couplers were fabricated by<br />
a novel fusion tapering technology, starting from<br />
an air-clad fibre with a core diameter of about<br />
130 µm and a very high air fraction of the holey<br />
clad ring. The couplers thus fabricated show a<br />
high port-to-port coupling uniformity over a wide<br />
spectral range from 800 nm to 1650 nm. Due to<br />
the absence of power-limiting low refractive index<br />
polymer materials to achieve the high numerical<br />
aperture, the device shows a strong potential for<br />
future high-power applications.<br />

segments of the 2×2 coupler.<br />
2.2.5 Loss measurements at silica fibres<br />
for cladding pumped applications<br />
(S. Jetschke, A. Schwuchow)<br />
Silica fibres with rare-earth-doped cores for laser<br />
or amplifier applications are often claddingpumped<br />
to benefit from commercial high-power<br />
pump diodes. Thereby, losses of pump power<br />
may occur in the cladding material itself or in the<br />
adjacent coating having a refractive index lower<br />
than silica. We investigated this attenuation in silica<br />
fibres of diameter 125 µm (without core),<br />
drawn from F300 rods and coated with different<br />
materials (see Tab. 2.1).<br />
The loss measurements were done by two different,<br />
but well-known methods:<br />
1. With the cut-back method, the loss spectra<br />
are calculated from transmission measurements<br />
in the 300–1700 nm wavelength range<br />
(Halogen lamp, NA 0.25) in a long (>60 m)<br />
and a shortened fibre (10 m). Although the<br />
fibre NA is not fully illuminated, the characteristic<br />
absorption bands of the coating materials<br />
are clearly seen (Fig. 2.6).<br />

Tab. 2.1: Loss in silica fibres with different coating materials, measured by the cut-back method and by<br />
OTDR (n.m. = not measurable, because of limited dynamic range of OTDR; cut-back method works without<br />
limitation of measurable loss).<br />
2 With the Optical Time Domain Analysis<br />
(OTDR), the loss can be evaluated with a spatial<br />
resolution of some meters, but only at<br />
selected wavelengths. Fibre lengths >60 m<br />
can be analysed; the measurements should be<br />
executed from both fibre ends. One of the<br />
available devices applies a wavelength of<br />
850nm and illuminates the fibre under test with<br />
NA 0.20 (spot size 50 µm); another device for<br />
1310 nm and 1550 nm implements NA 0.10<br />
(spot size 10 µm).<br />
Both methods supplement each other and are<br />
suitable especially for the comparison of losses<br />
in fibres with different coatings, but equal fibre<br />
diameters.<br />
The results obtained with both methods are compared<br />
in Tab. 2.1 (the wavelengths are determined<br />
by the OTDR devices) and indicate a sufficient<br />
consistency.<br />
The low loss and the high NA achieved with the<br />
Teflon AF coating, as well as the absence of<br />
additional absorption bands (apart from OH<br />
absorption) are particularly advantageous for<br />
cladding pumping. But the Teflon layer that can<br />
be implemented is too thin for many applications.<br />
The low-index Acrylate Luv 370–444, but also Silicone<br />
RT601 provide a moderate pump loss and<br />
an adequate layer thickness. However, characteristic<br />
absorption bands may be detrimental, e.g.<br />
the Silicone absorption around the common<br />
pump wavelength of 915 nm.<br />
Besides the effects on fibre loss, the coating<br />
materials differ in their mechanical and thermal<br />
properties, which should also be taken into<br />
account in high pump power applications.<br />
out usually by repeated packaging and stretching<br />
of rare-earth-doped elements made by the well<br />
established MCVD technique, soaking in rareearth<br />
solutions and subsequent drawing of the<br />
microstructured fibre by means of the “stack and<br />
draw“ technique. Fig. 2.7 shows the central part<br />
of a PCF with 7 × 7 active Yb-doped filaments.<br />
Fig. 2.7: Central part of a PCF with 7 × 7 active<br />
doped filaments .<br />
A matter of particular interest is the mode behaviour<br />
of such structures, especially the optical coupling<br />
of the single elements (formation of a<br />
“super-mode”). Fig. 2.8 shows the changing<br />
mode picture at the end of a short piece of the<br />
fibre shown in Fig. 2.7, achieved by launching<br />
2.2.6 Studies of the mode behaviour<br />
of multi-core fibre structures<br />
(K. Mörl, J. Kobelke, K. Schuster)<br />
There are various reasons to build-up the active<br />
cores of microstructured fibres from single doped<br />
filaments. One of them is to achieve a mode field<br />
as large as possible. The preparation is carried<br />
Fig. 2.8: Mode structure at the end of a short<br />

launching different wavelengths in the central part.<br />

light in the central part of fibre core by means of<br />
a fibre with 7 µm mode field diameter, and scanning<br />
the wavelength. We can see the beating of<br />
modes with a period of about 7 µm. From this and<br />
from the fibre length it is possible to compute the<br />
mode coupling length.<br />
Much more interesting it is to study the mode<br />
behaviour of such multi-filament cores in the<br />
active laser regime. Fig. 2.9 shows the large<br />
mode field of the fundamental laser mode (supermode),<br />
and Fig. 2.10 shows the mode profile of<br />
this mode at the same scale.<br />
Fig. 2.9: Fundamental laser mode (super –mode)<br />
of the fibre shown in Fig. 2.7.<br />
However, because of the necessary weak coupling<br />
between the waveguides, the tolerances of<br />
the optical properties and the relative positions of<br />
the waveguides are quite challenging. With<br />
respect to the state of the art, the precision of the<br />
geometrical and material parameters should be<br />
improved by a factor of 10.<br />
To achieve this requirement we developed a special<br />
technology on the basis of high-quality optical<br />
materials, precision machining and a careful<br />
control of all preparation steps. A first sample<br />
prepared in this way is shown in Fig. 2.11. The<br />
array consists of 61 weakly coupled single-mode<br />
waveguides with a hexagonal symmetry. The<br />
array is surrounded by a microstructured buffer<br />
zone and a jacketing tube. The precision of the<br />
array geometry fulfils the requirements.<br />

The distribution of light launched into a single<br />
waveguide follows the propagation characteristic<br />
in a regular array. A thorough analysis of this<br />
array sample shows that almost all (but not really<br />
all) waveguides fulfil the requirements.<br />

2.2.7 Fibre-optic waveguide arrays<br />
as model systems of discrete optics<br />
(U. Röpke, S. Unger, K. Schuster,<br />
J. Kobelke, H. Bartelt)<br />
The field of optics in discrete systems is evolving<br />
from theoretical concepts into experimental verification<br />
and discussion of its application potential.<br />
In the framework of a DFG research group working<br />
at this topic, we developed fibre-optic waveguide<br />
arrays suitable for optical experiments on<br />
nonlinear dynamics in two-dimensional discrete<br />
systems.<br />
The technology of microstructured fibres, which<br />
succeeds in the preparation of photonic crystal<br />
fibres, also provides a basis for waveguide arrays.<br />
Fig. 2.12: Propagation of light (λ = 1550 nm) in<br />
the array launched into a waveguide at a boundary<br />
corner (L: propagation length).<br />
In conclusion we have shown that fibre-optic<br />
waveguide arrays can be prepared that are suited<br />
as model systems in experiments of nonlinear<br />
discrete optics.

2.2.8 High-reflectivity draw-tower fibre<br />
Bragg gratings (FBG) at 1550 nm<br />
wavelength<br />
(M. Rothhardt, Ch. Chojetzki)<br />
For making Bragg gratings with excellent<br />
mechanical strength during the drawing tower<br />
process of the fibre, there is a limitation in using<br />
single pulses for the inscription of each grating.<br />
To achieve high reflectivity Bragg gratings during<br />
the dynamic inscription of FBG within the fibre<br />
drawing process (draw tower gratings), three<br />
important components are under consideration:<br />
first of all, the laser pulse properties; second, the<br />
UV photosensitivity of the fibre core, and third,<br />
the optical configuration and its alignment. These<br />
three factors have been developed and optimized<br />
during the last years; the result is the achievement<br />
of single pulse gratings with a reflectivity<br />
maximum of R = 51% at 1550 nm.<br />
Useful values for fibre transmission losses of<br />
OPTIK / OPTICS<br />
comprising a semiconductor laser and an extended<br />
external cavity. On the one hand, the FGL concept<br />
for Non-Return-to-Zero (NRZ) data transmission<br />
is considered as a potential low-cost data<br />
transmitter device; on the other hand, the laser<br />
output power and emission wavelength is shown<br />
to be sensitive to packaging, laser temperature<br />
and device current (see <strong>IPHT</strong> annual report<br />
2001).<br />
FGL understanding and optimization require simulation<br />
tools, which have been developed at the<br />
<strong>IPHT</strong>. The numerical method bases on the travelling<br />
wave model for DFB (distributed feedback)<br />
semiconductor lasers. As the lasing condition of<br />
the external cavity laser depends on its own history,<br />
the applied model splits the laser into individual<br />
sections, each with its own treatment of<br />
rate equations, (Bragg) reflections and losses.<br />
The simulation tools give access to the complex<br />
output power behaviour, mode jumps and eye.<br />
Additionally it is now possible to design special<br />
laser architectures like mode-hop-free FGLs with<br />
active wavelength stabilization and wavelengthswitchable<br />
FGLs, which are based on the interaction<br />
between the external cavity with superimposed<br />
Bragg gratings and the internal cavity,<br />
which comprises the semiconductor optical<br />
amplifier section.<br />
2.2.10 Implementation of an OADM with a<br />
data rate of 10 Gbit/s as technology<br />
demonstrator in the PLATON project<br />
(Planar Technology for Optical Networks)<br />
(M. Rothhardt, C. Aichele, M. Becker,<br />
U. Hübner)<br />
The EU-funded PLATON Project involves collaboration<br />
and permanent feedback with a variety of<br />
European research partners: Université des Sciences<br />
et Technologies de Lille (France), Université<br />
Paris Sud (France), Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale<br />
de Lausanne (Switzerland), Technische Universität<br />
Hamburg Harburg (Germany), Instituto de<br />
Engenharia de Sistemas e Computadores do<br />
Porto (Portugal), and two industrial partners,<br />
Lucent Technologies GmbH (Nürnberg, Germany)<br />
and Highwave Optical Technologies (France).<br />
The objective of the PLATON project was to<br />
study, develop and assess photosensitive planar<br />
technology through key pilot devices. The main<br />
subject of interest is demonstrating the feasibility<br />
of the technology for making components like<br />
channel waveguides, multimode interferometers,<br />
Mach-Zehnder structures and Bragg gratings.<br />
The work aims at a reconfigurable optical adddrop<br />
multiplexer (OADM) which will be the final<br />
demonstrator.<br />
Objectives of the <strong>IPHT</strong> were particularly:<br />
(i) Accomplishing an optimized process for optical<br />
layer deposition<br />
(ii) Structuring the optical waveguides of the key<br />
pilot components (OADM)<br />
(iii) Realizing the Bragg gratings inside the optical<br />
waveguides<br />
(iv) UV trimming of the MZI structures (Mach<br />
Zehnder Interferometer) of the OADM’s<br />
(v) Packaging and fibre coupling of the optical<br />
chips.<br />

The main results are:<br />
(i) Optical layer deposition<br />
The well-mastered technology at the <strong>IPHT</strong> for<br />
optical silica layer deposition, FHD (Flame Hydrolysis<br />
Deposition) is applied for this project. The<br />
core layer is germanium-doped. Our parameters<br />
achieved are:<br />
Core layer thickness of 4.5 µm/5.2 µm and a<br />
refractive index of n[core] = 1.469. The refractive<br />
index tolerance is δn

(iv) UV trimming<br />
The actual trimming process applies a tuneable<br />
laser source, an EDFA and an optical power-versus-time<br />
recorder. The number of trimming sections<br />
is four for symmetry reasons.<br />
The cladding layer is boron co-doped, resulting in<br />
a refractive index of n[clad] = 1,454. A level of<br />
nearly no stress-induced birefringence was<br />
achieved. The resulting core-cladding refractive<br />
index difference is as specified, with ∆n~1.5 * 10 –2 .<br />
(ii) Structuring of the optical waveguides<br />
The techniques used are photolithography and<br />
reactive ion etching (RIE), which allow exact definition<br />
of planar waveguide structures. A square<br />
cross section of the waveguides was achieved.<br />
Fig. 2.20: Set-up scheme for UV trimming of the<br />
MMI structure of the OADM.<br />
The UV trimming procedure was performed two<br />
times: first time with hydrogen- loaded sample<br />
and second with presensitized trimming sections.<br />
The resulting OADM was tested at LUCENT<br />
Technologies in Nuremberg with a bit stream of<br />
10 Gbit/s. The functionality of the OADM was<br />
shown.<br />

field of the waveguide samples obtained.<br />
(iii) Bragg grating inscription process<br />
For Bragg grating inscription, a two step UVprocess<br />
was applied. It starts with imprinting the<br />
grating’s index modulation and continues with the<br />
correction of the average index modulation envelope.<br />
This final apodisation correction is done by<br />
exposing the grating to the inverse grating envelope<br />
intensity profile. The grating inscription setup<br />
at the <strong>IPHT</strong> uses the holographic Talbot interferometer<br />
inscription technique with a frequency-doubled<br />
argon-ion laser operating cw at 244 nm. The<br />
laser power at the output was 244 mW at 244 nm.<br />
2.2.11 Material processing with DUV/VUV<br />
laser radiation<br />
(S. Brückner)<br />
Because of their short wavelengths and their<br />
high quantum energies, the ArF laser (193 nm)<br />
and the F 2 laser (157 nm) are excellent laser tools<br />
for the precise and efficient micro structuring of<br />
high band gap materials, like fused silica or PTFE<br />
(Teflon). The measurement setups for material<br />
processing in the DUV/VUV spectral range have<br />
been continually improved in recent years. With<br />
both laser systems it is possible now, by the use<br />
of high-resolution mechanical components, to<br />
produce complex microstructures with lateral and<br />
depth resolutions in the sub-µm range.<br />
Different special tasks were successfully processed<br />
with both measurement setups by maskbased<br />
structuring.<br />
By means of the ArF laser, an array of 12 microholes<br />
with diameters smaller than 50 µm was<br />
drilled in a silica-based Photonic Crystal Fibre<br />
(PCF). For the implementation of a chemical sensor<br />
system it was necessary to drill holes through<br />
the fibre cladding exactly up to the fibre core. The<br />
drilling depth is determined by the number of<br />
laser pulses and the fluence. With an energy<br />
dose of 750 J/cm 2 it was possible to drill the hole<br />
just up to the fibre core, as shown in figure 2.21.<br />
Fig. 2.19: Grating transmission spectra after index<br />
modulation inscription before (α) and after (β)<br />
adaptation of the average refractive index profile.<br />

the fractured surface (right) of a Photonic Crystal<br />
Fibre (PCF) with a drilled hole (produced with<br />
193 nm).<br />
Additionally to a variety of experiments to F 2 laser<br />
material processing of glass, fused silica and<br />
metallic layers, the micro structuring of PTFE<br />
should be mentioned. By the use of specially<br />
designed CaF 2 lenses and an improved experimental<br />
setup, new results at sub-µm structuring<br />
were achieved. Different gratings with sizes of<br />
1mm 2 , line widths up to 1 µm and a depth of<br />
500 nm were produced with fluences from 0.3 to<br />
1.5 mJ/cm 2 . Investigations of the ablation behaviour<br />
of PTFE in a nitrogen atmosphere show an<br />
efficient ablation process with ablation rates of 40<br />
nm/pulse at a fluence of 300 mJ/cm 2 . The assembling<br />
of a new vacuum chamber system permits<br />
material processing with 157 nm in the high-vacuum<br />
range. In further experiments, a comparison<br />
of material processing in vacuum and in a dry<br />
nitrogen atmosphere will be carried out to determine<br />
the ablation behaviour and the deposition of<br />
debris particles on the grating surface.<br />
Although operating at a data rate 500 times higher<br />
than our previous standard design, the sensor<br />
system is very compact (220 × 140 × 60 mm 3 ,<br />
Fig. 2.23) and robust, operates at temperatures<br />
between –40 and +60 °C, and is fully suitable for<br />
use in industrial applications in adverse environments.<br />
Our industrial partner for sensor technologies,<br />
Jenoptik LOS GmbH, is now commercializing<br />
this new high-speed sensor system in addition<br />
to the precursor “StrainaTemp”, which is dedicated<br />
to performing slower temperature and<br />
strain measurements.<br />
Highly topical application fields of fast fibre optic<br />
strain measurements are, e.g., the quality monitoring<br />
of spot welding (cooperation with University<br />
of Applied Sciences <strong>Jena</strong>), defect monitoring<br />
of train overhead contact lines (cooperation in<br />
two European R&D projects), and load monitoring<br />
of wind turbine blades (cooperation with<br />
Enercon GmbH and Jenoptik AG).<br />

2.2.12 High-speed optical fibre grating<br />
sensor system<br />
(W. Ecke)<br />
Fibre Bragg grating (FBG) sensor systems find<br />
application in a steadily increasing number of<br />
fields, including fast strain vibrations in electrical<br />
machines, drive units or tools, e.g., train current<br />
collectors, large-scale generators, wind turbines<br />
or spot-welding grippers. These applications<br />
require fast measuring and cost-effective signal<br />
processing equipment. For this purpose, our concept<br />
of an FBG sensor system-based on broadband<br />
illumination and a compact spectrometer<br />
operating at 800 nm wavelength (Fig. 2.22) has<br />
been optimized to achieve a digital signal processing<br />
data rate of up to 1800 measurements<br />
per second, with exactly simultaneous processing<br />
for all the 16 sensors in the fibre network. The<br />
development of new optical mode-equalizing<br />
components now decreases the influence of disturbances<br />
on the fibre transmission lines to well<br />
below the detection limits of Bragg wavelength<br />
excursions (standard deviation down to 0.3 pm).<br />
Repeatability and accuracy of the measured<br />
strain signals have been improved to less than<br />
0.5 µε and 5 µε, respectively.<br />

sensor system.<br />

2.2.13 Monitoring of inhomogeneous flow<br />
distributions using fibre-optic Bragg<br />
grating temperature sensor arrays<br />
(I. Latka, W. Ecke)<br />
OPTIK / OPTICS<br />
In many industrial facilities like chemical reactors,<br />
thermodynamic engines, pipes and others, complex<br />
flow distributions occur. Knowledge of the<br />
gas flow distributions may help to achieve an efficient<br />
system performance.<br />
In our approach, fibre Bragg grating (FBG) sensors<br />
have been used for measuring the temperature<br />
of a heated element, in our case a steel capillary,<br />
which is cooled according to the surrounding<br />
mass flow. Because of the multiplexing capability<br />
of FBG sensors, one can measure the temperature<br />
distribution, i.e., the spatial distribution<br />
of the gas mass flow along the sensor array. The<br />
length of the heated and sensor-equipped element<br />
can be easily adapted to the cross section<br />
of the gas flow, from
OPTIK / OPTICS<br />
After long-term laboratory tests of the sensor<br />
system with artificial and natural seawater, field<br />
tests of the sensor system were performed by the<br />
GKSS-Research Centre/Institute for Coastal<br />
Research, Geesthacht on board the ferry ship<br />
„Duchess of Scandinavia“ during a trip between<br />
Cuxhaven (D) and Harwich (GB) [Fig. 2.26]. The<br />
measured nitrate profile, shown in Fig. 2.27,<br />
reflects the nitrate load in the seawater caused by<br />
the rivers Elbe, Weser and Schelde as well as the<br />
nitrate pollution from the North Frisian Islands<br />
and the big harbour cities of the Netherlands and<br />
fits well to measurements obtained by sampling<br />
nutrient analysers on the same ferry route.<br />

measured by sensor and by autoanalyzer.<br />

Further investigations mainly directed to the<br />
improvement of the long-term stability of the sensor<br />
were performed during a 2-week North Sea<br />
round trip of the German research vessel<br />
“Gauss”. On several stations the nitrate concentration<br />
was measured by the sensor and compared<br />
with the results of a commercial nutrient<br />
autoanalyser [Fig. 2.28].<br />
2.2.15 Novel optical dew point sensor<br />
(T. Wieduwilt, G. Schwotzer)<br />
The dew or frost point is a measure of the water<br />
content of any gas. Commercial optical dew point<br />
hygrometers are based on the “chilled mirror”<br />
principle. The devices consist of polished stainless<br />
steel or platinum mirrors attached to thermoelectric<br />
coolers (Peltier devices). The mirrors are<br />
illuminated (e.g. with LED), and the reflected light<br />
is received by photodiodes.<br />
The gas stream whose humidity is to measure is<br />
directed over the mirror surface. When the mirror<br />
temperature falls below the dew or frost point of<br />
the gas sample water condenses or forms ice<br />
crystals onto the mirror surface. The reflected<br />
light received by the photodiode is abruptly<br />
reduced due to scattering.<br />
The photodiode is tied into a servo loop which<br />
controls the current to the Peltier cooler. This<br />
enables the mirror to be maintained at an equilibrium<br />
temperature where the rates of condensation<br />
and evaporation of water molecules are<br />
equal and therefore, a constant mass of water is<br />
maintained on the mirror. The resulting temperature<br />
of the mirror is then fundamentally, by definition,<br />
equal the dew point temperature. A platinum<br />
resistance thermometer (PRT) embedded<br />
beneath the mirror surface measures this temperature.<br />
An inconvenience of chilled mirror hygrometers<br />
is the falsification of the measuring by contaminations<br />
on the mirror surface. Contaminations<br />
(e.g. organic particle) affect the light reflection<br />
characteristics and cleaning procedures or compensation<br />
methods are necessary. The electronic<br />
schemes used for contamination compensation<br />
are often sophisticated and expensive. Other<br />
problems are the limited miniaturization and the<br />
unsuitable manufacturing technology for mass<br />
production.<br />
In cooperation with BARTEC GmbH a novel optical<br />
dew point sensor has been developed to overcome<br />
these disadvantages.
OPTIK / OPTICS<br />
The operation principle is based on frustrated<br />
total internal light reflection on the glass-air interface<br />
in the presence of dew drops or ice crystals<br />
(patented by Bartec).<br />
The optical principle is shown in Fig. 2.29. Essential<br />
features of the new dew point hygrometer are<br />
the application of a transparent light guiding<br />
glass slide and the reverse illumination of the<br />
glass-gas interface through glass.<br />
To precise measure the dew point temperature, a<br />
platinum resistance thermometer with contact<br />
structures has been deposited on the glass surface<br />
(see Fig. 2.30). The platinum structure is<br />
arranged in the thermoelectric cooled condensation<br />
area. For passivation, the measuring structure<br />
is coated by a thin silicon carbide overlay to<br />
protect the electrical resistance structure. Fig.<br />
2.31 shows a microscopic photo of condensed<br />
water droplets on the sensor surface.<br />
With the presented sensor, an accuracy of ±0.5 K<br />
for the dew point temperature in the range of –15<br />
to +20 °C DP has been measured.<br />
Fig. 2.29: Scheme of the sensor principle.<br />
Without condensed water on the glass surface,<br />
the light from a LED propagates without losses<br />
through the light guide to the photodetector. If<br />
condensed dew droplets are on the glass surface<br />
the light penetrates the glass-droplet interfaces<br />
and is scattered at the droplet-air interface. This<br />
results in a decrease of the intensity at the detector.<br />
The advantage of this principle is the ruggedness<br />
in relation to contamination.<br />

3.1 Überblick<br />
<strong>2005</strong> war für den Bereich „Mikrosysteme“ ein<br />
bewegtes Jahr, das im Rückblick mit den Begriffen<br />
Kontinuität und Veränderung umrissen werden<br />
kann.<br />
Kontinuität insofern, dass in den Gruppen die<br />
fachliche Arbeit auf den verschiedenen Themengebieten<br />
systematisch weiter vorangetrieben<br />
wurde und zu einer Reihe sehr beachtlicher wissenschaftlicher<br />
Ergebnisse, verbunden mit<br />
erfolgreicher Projektakquisition, geführt hat. Die<br />
nachfolgenden Abschnitte geben darüber Auskunft.<br />
Veränderung benennt vor allem zwei wichtige,<br />
eng miteinander verkoppelte Entwicklungen. Zum<br />
Einen hat das Kuratorium mit Wirkung vom 1. Mai<br />
<strong>2005</strong> Prof. Jürgen Popp zum neuen Bereichsleiter<br />
berufen. Prof. Popp ist Lehrstuhlinhaber für<br />
Physikalische Chemie an der hiesigen Universität<br />
und Leiter des Institutes für Physikalische Chemie.<br />
Er wird diese Funktionen auch weiterhin<br />
ausüben, so dass die Verflechtung des <strong>IPHT</strong> mit<br />
der Universität in seiner Person eine substanzielle,<br />
für die Zukunft des <strong>IPHT</strong> entscheidende Stärkung<br />
erfährt. Als weithin anerkannter Experte auf<br />
dem Gebiet der Laserspektroskopie und der Biophotonik<br />
bringt Prof. Popp – mit seiner Gruppe an<br />
der FSU – ein hochaktuelles und zukunftsträchtiges<br />
wissenschaftliches Feld in das <strong>IPHT</strong> ein, welches<br />
sich in idealer Weise mit dem KnowHow<br />
3.1. Overview<br />
<strong>2005</strong> was a rather exciting year for the microsystems<br />
division. The year <strong>2005</strong> can be sketched by<br />
the terms continuity and change.<br />
Continuity insofar as the scientific work of the<br />
various research fields within the division has<br />
been pursued systematically resulting in a lot of<br />
remarkable scientific results and a very successful<br />
acquisition of new projects. The following<br />
chapters provide a more detailed insight into the<br />
recent achievements of the microsystems division.<br />
The term change marks two important and<br />
strongly coupled developments. Firstly, Prof.<br />
Juergen Popp was appointed as the new head of<br />
the division starting at May 1 by the supervisory<br />
board of the institute. Prof. Popp holds a chair at<br />
the Friedrich-Schiller-Universität of <strong>Jena</strong> where<br />
he is the director of the institute for physical<br />
chemistry. Since he will carry on this position, the<br />
scientific interlocking between the <strong>IPHT</strong> and the<br />
university being an essential factor for the future<br />
of the <strong>IPHT</strong> will be strengthened by Prof. Popp in<br />
a substantial manner. As a widely recognized<br />
expert in the field of laser spectroscopy and biophotonics<br />
Prof. Popp – together with his group at<br />
the university – will establish a highly attractive<br />
and longreaching research field at <strong>IPHT</strong> which<br />
can be suitably combined with the know how of<br />
the division on the development of chip systems<br />

des Bereiches zur mikrotechnisch basierten<br />
Chip- und Instrumentenentwicklung ergänzt und<br />
das fachliche Profil des Bereiches, aber auch des<br />
<strong>IPHT</strong> insgesamt, maßgeblich prägen wird.<br />
Damit ist zugleich die zweite wesentliche Veränderung<br />
des vergangenen Jahres angesprochen:<br />
Die erreichten Fortschritte in der Diskussion zu<br />
der zukünftigen Ausrichtung und Positionierung<br />
des <strong>IPHT</strong>. Die vom Kuratorium bestellte Strukturkommission<br />
hat für den optisch orientierten Teil<br />
des <strong>IPHT</strong>, und damit auch für den Bereich „Mikrosysteme“,<br />
Empfehlungen zur inhaltlichen Fokussierung<br />
und strukturellen Anpassung ausgesprochen.<br />
Von den beiden identifizierten Forschungsschwerpunkten<br />
Optische Fasern und Photonische<br />
Instrumentierung beschreibt vor allem der<br />
Letztere die avisierte thematische Ausrichtung<br />
des Bereiches, auf welche sich die Arbeiten in<br />
den kommenden Jahren fokussieren werden.<br />
Fachlich bedeutet der Fokussierungsprozess einerseits<br />
die kontinuierliche Fortführung von<br />
Arbeitsrichtungen, welche sich unmittelbar in das<br />
neue Bereichsprofil einordnen (Verknüpfung<br />
optisch basierter Chiparrays, mikroanalytischer<br />
Systeme, infrarotoptischer Sensoren mit laserspektroskopischen<br />
Verfahren). Andererseits sind<br />
mit der Neuausrichtung auch inhaltliche Umorientierungen<br />
verbunden (Mikrosystemkonzepte<br />
außerhalb der Optik) und muss mit Blick auf die<br />
kompetente Besetzung der Forschungsfelder<br />
zusätzliche Expertise auf- bzw. ausgebaut werden<br />
(Plasmonik, molekulares und funktionales<br />
Imaging, THz-Technik). Hierzu sollen insbesondere<br />
Nachwuchsgruppen zeitnah etabliert werden.<br />
Um die fachliche Profilierung zu befördern, hat<br />
sich der Bereich im vergangenen Jahr eine neue<br />
Abteilungsstruktur gegeben, welche im obigen<br />
Organigramm dargestellt ist. Die einzelnen<br />
Arbeitsgruppen sind dabei in sich weitgehend<br />
unverändert geblieben, wurden aber durch die<br />
geänderte Zuordnung in einen neuen Kontext<br />
gestellt. Dies betrifft vor allem die Vereinigung<br />
von spektraloptischer Verfahrens- und Systementwicklung<br />
sowie die Herausstellung der Mikrosystemtechnik<br />
(Mikroreaktorik, Mikrofluidik) als<br />
unverzichtbare enabling technology für die photonische<br />
Instrumentierung.<br />
Damit sind intern bereits wichtige Weichen<br />
gestellt, um den Fokussierungsprozess des<br />
Bereiches forciert weiterzuführen. Zugleich sind<br />
diese Maßnahmen eingebunden in zentrale forschungsstrategische<br />
Aktivitäten der Universität<br />
und des Campus Beutenberg (z.B. Ernst-Abbe-<br />
Center for Photonics, <strong>Jena</strong>er Innovationscluster<br />
„Optische Technologien“). Insgesamt sieht sich<br />
der Bereich „Mikrosysteme“ daher gut aufgestellt,<br />
um die Herausforderungen der inhaltlichen Profilierung<br />
als Chance für die weitere wissenschaftliche<br />
und struklurelle Entwicklung des Bereiches<br />
zu nutzen.<br />
and instruments defining not only the future<br />
scientific profile of the division, but also a main<br />
research topic of the <strong>IPHT</strong>.<br />
For this reason, the second essential change<br />
within the last year was already addressed: the<br />
progress achieved in the discussion about the<br />
future orientation and positioning of the <strong>IPHT</strong>.<br />
The structure commission being established by<br />
the supervisory board submitted a strategic recommendation<br />
for a scientific focusing and structural<br />
adaption of the optical orientated parts of<br />
<strong>IPHT</strong>, hence, also for the microsystems division.<br />
The future scientific direction of the division is<br />
described by “Photonic Instrumentation” being<br />
one of the newly identified research fields “Optical<br />
Fibers” and “Photonic Instrumentation”.<br />
With respect to the research activities of the division<br />
the focusing process stands on the one hand<br />
for a steady continuation of those approaches<br />
which fit into the new scientific profile i.e. combination<br />
of optical based chip arrays, microanalytical<br />
systems and infrared sensors with laser spectroscopic<br />
methods. However on the other hand, a<br />
focusing on photonic instrumentation is associated<br />
with significant changes in some traditional<br />
areas like microsystem concepts not based on<br />
optical principles. Furthermore the establishment<br />
and strengthening of new research fields<br />
requires a build-up or extension of new expertise<br />
like e.g. plasmonics, molecular and functional<br />
imaging, and THz techniques etc. For these purposes,<br />
young scientists groups need to be<br />
installed.<br />
The division has changed its department structure<br />
in accordance to the recommended focusing<br />
process (see scheme given above). In doing so<br />
the various groups remained largely unchanged<br />
however are put into a new context due to the<br />
changed classification. This restructuring process<br />
mainly concerns the association between spectral-optical<br />
techniques and instrumentation as<br />
well as the emphasis on microsystem technology<br />
(including microreactors, microfluidics) as an<br />
essential enabling technology for photonic instrumentation.<br />
All these efforts are setting internally the course<br />
for a successful continuation of the department’s<br />
focusing process. Additionally, these<br />
decisions are embedded into central strategic<br />
activities of the university and the campus (e.g.<br />
Ernst-Abbe-Center for Photonics, <strong>Jena</strong> innovation<br />
cluster “Photonic Technologies”). Overall<br />
the microsystems division is in a very good position<br />
not only to face the challenges arising due<br />
to the new profile of the <strong>IPHT</strong> but also to use this<br />
profiling opportunity as a chance to further pursue<br />
the scientific and structural development of<br />
the division.

3.2 Scientific Results<br />
3.2.1 Spectral optical techniques and<br />
instrumentation<br />
(J. Popp)<br />
The main objectives of the department “Spectral<br />
optical techniques and instrumentation” are the<br />
development of innovative optical and spectroscopical<br />
techniques as well as the design and<br />
experimental realization of advanced spectral<br />
optical devices and instruments for material and<br />
life sciences applications. A fundamental understanding<br />
of the processes taking place when light<br />
interacts with matter is an indispensable prerequisite<br />
for such developments. The ultimate<br />
goal in life sciences is a deeper understanding of<br />
the molecular processes occuring inside living<br />
cells. Furthermore chemical reactions, metabolite<br />
or bioactive compounds driven functionalities<br />
of biological cells as well as cell-cell communication<br />
need to be studied. Optical and spectroscopical<br />
techniques are extremely capable methods<br />
to study the aforementioned processes on a<br />
molecular level. Based on such knowledge e.g. in<br />
the field of health care the origin of diseases can<br />
be resolved, therapies can be optimized, and the<br />
occurence of diseases might be prevented or at<br />
least minimized.<br />
Apart from the derivation of structure-property<br />
relationships, the derivation of structure-dynamic<br />
relationships is one of the most challenging topics.<br />
Utilizing advanced nanostructuring technologies<br />
artificial bioinspired materials with new<br />
promising properties can be realized.<br />
To achieve all the aformentioned ambitious goals<br />
in material and life sciences innovative optical<br />
components and sophisticated frequency-, timeand<br />
spatially resolved innovative laser spectroscopical<br />
methods and systems ranging from the<br />
UV to the THz with unparalleled functionalities<br />
need to be developed. Therefore, future research<br />
activities have to focus on the development of<br />
innovative optical spectroscopy techniques and<br />
instruments like e.g.:<br />
– Frequency resolved spectroscopical techniques<br />
exploiting novel spectral ranges to access<br />
innovative matter structures,<br />
– Time-resolved methods ranging from nanosecond<br />
to subfemtosecond time resolution to<br />
study the entire range of time dependent structural<br />
changes,<br />
– Functional and molecular imaging – e.g. CARS<br />
microscopy, TIP-SERS,<br />
– High-efficient spectral imaging for diagnostics,<br />
– Applied plasmonics for the ultra-sensitive diagnostics,<br />
– Lensless microscopes,<br />
– THz-spectroscopy and -technique.<br />
Another research topic together with the Department<br />
“Photonic Chip Systems” shall combine the<br />
achievements of photonics especially of biophotonics<br />
with those from micro- and nano-technology.<br />
The main goal is the realization of new industrial<br />
products, like e.g. the development of a new<br />
generation of optical and spectroscopical microchips<br />
for a powerful point-of-care diagnostics.<br />
A. Spectral optical sensing<br />
(R. Riesenberg)<br />
The annual report 2004 was entitled “Micro-aperture<br />
arrays in optics” and that oft 2003 “Ultra-sensitive<br />
optical sensing”. The annual report <strong>2005</strong>,<br />
presents innovative high performance optical<br />
sensing set-ups for spectral sensors, for a multisignal-reader<br />
and for micro-imaging.<br />
Future research topics might be high performance<br />
optical spectral and 5D-sensing architectures<br />
and lensless micro-imaging with synthetic<br />
apertures.<br />
Compact Raman spectral sensors<br />
(A. Wuttig, R. Riesenberg)<br />
The project “OMIB online monitoring and identification<br />
of microorganisms and bio aerosols”<br />
deals with a rapid identification of single microorganisms<br />
by means of micro Raman-spectroscopy<br />
in combination with statistical data evaluation<br />
procedures. Such a point-of-care detection<br />
demands compact high performance sensors.<br />
Therefore, two sensors based on new technologies<br />
were designed and manufactured: one<br />
for the UV-region and another for the NIR-region.<br />
For that reason, a special 2D-entrance aperture<br />
array implementing a set of 10 little different<br />
spectrometers in one design can be applied. The<br />
reconvolution of the different images avoids aberrations<br />
and increases the spectral resolution as<br />
well as the throughput (patent pended arrangements).<br />
The UV spectral sensor established in<br />
2004 has been successfully tested by recording<br />
Raman spectra of bacteria and minerals. More<br />
than 10.000 spectral points are detected by<br />
the UV-sensor exhibiting a detector-array of<br />
2048 × 512 pixels (spectral region 245 nm – 360 nm,<br />
spectral resolution up to 0.035 nm) simultaneously<br />
(see Fig. 3.1).<br />
A second NIR Raman spectral sensor (see<br />
Fig. 3A on color page) operates in the wavelength<br />
range of 780 nm to 1100 nm at a wavelength<br />
resolution of 0.3 nm (corresponding<br />
wavenumber resolution: 5 cm –1 at λ = 780 nm …<br />
2.5 cm –1 at λ = 1100 nm) using only a 1024 × 128<br />
pixel detector.<br />

MIKROSYSTEME / MICROSYSTEMS<br />
Unconventional micro-imaging<br />
(R. Riesenberg, A. Grjasnow, M. Kanka,<br />
J. Bergmann)<br />
a)<br />
The coherent illumination of a sample by a pinhole<br />
generates an interference image (inlineholography).<br />
Results are given by unconventional<br />
microscopic imaging by illumination with a pinhole<br />
array, see Fig. 3.2. The microscopy by multiplane<br />
interference detection uses three or more<br />
interference pictures to reconstruct the objects.<br />
The actual technique is adapted to microscopic<br />
imaging. No reference is needed and a sub-pixel<br />
algorithm is implemented.<br />
The lensless technique is applied for wide field<br />
imaging. The illumination by a pinhole-array<br />
leads to a homogenous illumination with more<br />
intensity and so with an increased sensitivity. The<br />
field of view can be extended without loosing resolution<br />
(see Fig. 3.3).<br />

Spectral-reader-technologies<br />
(G. Nitzsche, R. Riesenberg)<br />
A concept and an optical design of a fluorescence<br />
reader for real-time PCR was developed<br />
which enables for the first time the detection of<br />
four different dyes in 96 samples simultaneously.<br />
It uses fiber-arrays, a lens-array and microaperture<br />
entrance arrays for parallel illumination as<br />
well as for highly parallel spectral detection. The<br />
design of the multi-signal polychromator with<br />
the 2D-slit-array consists of 4 × 25 single slits<br />
to generate 4 × 25 spectra on the CCD-chip (see<br />
Fig. 3B on color page). The design was adapted<br />
to a CCD-camera with 1024 × 1024 pixels of a<br />
pitch of 13 µm.<br />
B. Thermal microsensors<br />
(E. Keßler)<br />
Two projects (ISEL and FANIMAT-nano) could<br />
be started in <strong>2005</strong> while the MICRO-THERM<br />
project was finished. All these projects fit in the<br />
strategic orientation of the Thermal Microsensors<br />
group aimed at research and development<br />
of miniaturized thermal sensors (in particular<br />
for sensing electromagnetic radiation in<br />
the infrared and neighboring spectral regions)<br />
with a high and relatively uniform sensitivity/<br />
detectivity in a broad spectral region and in a<br />
wide range of operating temperatures up to<br />
200 °C and more based on high-performance<br />
materials of the functional layers, e.g., the<br />
absorber, the thermoelectric transducer and the<br />
isolation/passivation layers.<br />
inalienable condition, the detector operating in a<br />
high-vacuum ambiance.<br />
The floating membrane pattern is generated by<br />
dry etching processes. Several chip designs and<br />
types of thermopiles comprising four and eight<br />
thermocouples with leg widths of 2 and 4 µm,<br />
respectively, deposited on stress-controlled silicon<br />
nitride, have been tested and provided for<br />
packaging (see. Fig. 3.4). Under vacuum conditions,<br />
responsivities of up to approximately<br />
3000 V/W and specific detectivities of 1.4 × 10 9<br />
cm Hz 1/2 /W were measured with the thermoelectric<br />
materials combination BiSb and Sb. Variations<br />
of the multi-layer absorber system aiming at<br />
the lowering of its thermal mass to decrease the<br />
thermal time constant resulted in responsivities of<br />
about 2400 V/W and time constants in the order<br />
of 40 ms for an optimized design.<br />
A significant potential for a further increase in<br />
responsivity and detectivity arises from substituting<br />
the p-material Sb by the high-figure-of-merit<br />
material BiSbTe and by the application of a new<br />
membrane technology based on SU-8. These<br />
efforts were continued after the termination of<br />
the project in September <strong>2005</strong>.<br />
The scaled-down geometrical dimensions of the<br />
micro-thermopiles connected to the accomplishable<br />
high detectivities are an important first step<br />
towards the development of thermopile arrays<br />
with high spatial resolution; hence, this project is<br />
of particular importance for the further development<br />
of thermopile sensors at the <strong>IPHT</strong>.<br />
New generation of micro-thermopiles<br />
with high detectivity (MICRO-THERM)<br />
(E. Kessler, V. Baier, U. Dillner, A. Ihring)<br />
The main goal of the project MICRO-THERM,<br />
started in July 2004, was the development of<br />
microthermopiles for high-resolution low-temperature<br />
radiation thermometry (spectral range 8 to<br />
14 µm). The work was carried out in close cooperation<br />
with Optris GmbH, Berlin and Mikrotechnik<br />
& Sensorik GmbH, <strong>Jena</strong>.<br />
Essential specifications of this new generation of<br />
detectors are reduced dimensions of the receiving<br />
area (diameters ranging from 100 to 150 µm,<br />
thus permitting the enhancement of the distance<br />
ratio and the optical resolution of pyrometers up<br />
to 1:200 even with small optics), high specific<br />
detectivities above 1 × 10 9 cm Hz 1/2 /W and comparatively<br />
low thermal time constants in the range<br />
of 100 ms. These features are achieved by a<br />
thermally optimized thermopile arrangement on a<br />
floating membrane with supporting bridges smaller<br />
than 10 µm and reduced thicknesses of active<br />
and passive layers, thereby reducing parasitic<br />
thermal conductances and masses, and, as an<br />

TO-5 base plate, wire-bonded.<br />
Infrared sensors having increased standards<br />
of performance (ISEL)<br />
(E. Kessler, V. Baier)<br />
Basically, the aims of this project are both to shift<br />
the long-term operating temperature of thermopile<br />
IR sensors beyond the limit of 180 °C,<br />
reached in the former project HOBI, towards<br />
250 °C and enhancing the responsivity of the<br />
sensors. This shall be achieved by replacing the<br />
65
MIKROSYSTEME / MICROSYSTEMS<br />
typically used thermoelectric materials BiSb and<br />
Sb with materials of higher thermoelectric figures<br />
of merit, which moreover have higher temperature<br />
stabilities. For the prediction of sensor properties<br />
by parametric thermal modeling the transport<br />
coefficients of these materials have to be<br />
characterized up to 300 °C. The according measurement<br />
equipment shall be built in 2006.<br />
The high-effective ternary BiSbTe was chosen<br />
as thermoelectric p-material. It was sputtered<br />
by dc technology under optimized conditions.<br />
Thereby a power factor of P = α 2 σ = 1.9 10 –3 W/<br />
(m K 2 ) (Seebeck coefficient α = 189 µV/K and<br />
electrical conductivity σ = 53 540 (Ω m) –1 ) was<br />
obtained at room temperature. In a first run sensors<br />
of TS 80 type were manufactured for high<br />
temperature applications with this technology<br />
using CuNi as n-material. However, some problems<br />
appeared in the wet-chemical patterning of<br />
the BiSbTe films, which can most likely be attributed<br />
to the specific sputtering conditions. The<br />
averaged responsivity S = 51 V/W is enhanced<br />
by a factor of 1.6 compared with BiSb/Sb and<br />
the temperature coefficient of responsivity is<br />
lowered by a factor of 2.7 in the room temperature<br />
range. Sensors of this type were delivered<br />
for testing and qualifying to the project partner<br />
Micro-Hybrid Electronic.<br />
in vacuum-tight sensor housings are planned to<br />
test the compatibility of the ceramic films with<br />
high-temperature interconnection and packaging<br />
techniques. Thus, the project combines the competence<br />
of the three partners HITK (ceramic<br />
nano-powders), <strong>IPHT</strong> (thermoelectric sensor<br />
functional layers) and MHE (interconnection and<br />
packaging techniques).<br />
In <strong>2005</strong>, first investigations concerning new<br />
absorber layers were carried out. The absorption<br />
coefficients of several high-temperature resistant<br />
layers supplied by HITK and based on different<br />
materials were measured at <strong>IPHT</strong> using a FTIRspectrometer.<br />
Moreover, the morphology of the<br />
layers was characterized by SEM (see Fig. 3.5).<br />
For layers of a special soot, absorption coefficients<br />
exceeding 90% were found in the wavelength<br />
range between 8 and 14 µm.<br />

Nanotechnologies for the functionalization<br />
of ceramic materials (FANIMAT-nano)<br />
(E. Kessler, U. Dillner)<br />
FANIMAT-nano represents one so-called “growth<br />
core” in the Program “Innovative Regional<br />
Growth Cores” launched by the Federal Ministry<br />
of Education and Research (BMBF). This is a<br />
development support program aimed towards<br />
regional cooperations with platform technology<br />
and important features which make them unique<br />
in their field of competence. The target region of<br />
FANIMAT-nano is the region <strong>Jena</strong>-Hermsdorf in<br />
the federal state Thuringia. Within the FANIMATnano<br />
growth core, the Thermal Microsensors<br />
group at <strong>IPHT</strong> <strong>Jena</strong> is involved in a project called<br />
“Structurable ceramic thin films for high-temperature<br />
stable infrared (HT-IR) sensors” which started<br />
in September <strong>2005</strong>. Our partners in this project<br />
are the Hermsdorf Institute for Technical<br />
Ceramics (HITK) and the Micro-Hybrid Electronics<br />
GmbH (MHE), also located in Hermsdorf.<br />
The development objectives of this project<br />
include the creation and characterization of<br />
structurable polyceramic or solgel thin film materials<br />
which can be integrated in the stacks of<br />
functional layers of thermoelectric infrared<br />
microsensors as high-temperature resistant<br />
absorber layers and isolation or passivation layers,<br />
respectively. Furthermore, the development<br />
of thermopile sensor chips with operating temperatures<br />
up to 250 °C employing those ceramic<br />
films is envisioned. Investigations of these chips<br />

resistant soot absorber layer.<br />
Calorimetric space debris detector<br />
(E. Kessler, V. Baier, U. Dillner, A. Ihring)<br />
A detector array of 16 × 16 thermopile sensors<br />
based on the TS100/Flow design was developed<br />
as an integrated part of a breadboard model of a<br />
new type of in-situ space debris and meteoroid<br />
detector to determine the impact energy of<br />
micron-sized particles by calorimetric measurements<br />
(see Fig. 3C on the color page). The partners<br />
of this project are the eta_max Space<br />
GmbH, Braunschweig, the Physikalisch-Technische<br />
Bundesanstalt, and the TU Braunschweig.<br />
The thermopile array is completed with an appropriate<br />
plate absorber array supported by small<br />
spacing columns of 20 µm height made of SU-8<br />
and thermally connected to the sensitive areas of<br />
the thermopiles each to convert the kinetic energy<br />
of the impacting particles into a temperature<br />
increase. An estimate of an average thermal<br />
effect gives temperature rises of 2…3 mK which<br />
can be clearly detected by the thermopiles. Initial<br />
tests using laser pulse heating were successfully<br />
performed.

3.2.2 Photonic chip systems<br />
(W. Fritzsche)<br />
The detection and manipulation of molecular<br />
ensembles as well as individual molecules based<br />
on miniaturized and paralleled photonic approaches<br />
represent the main objective of the department.<br />
It is therefore aimed at two main research directions:<br />
(I) molecular construction techniques in<br />
order to develop required novel methods for<br />
manipulation and detection at the molecular level<br />
and (II) chip technology to convert these developments<br />
into (bio)analytical applications.<br />
The ultimate goal for both ultrasensitive bioanalytics<br />
and other possible applications for molecular<br />
complexes (such as nano-electronics and<br />
-optics) is the control of the constructs at the<br />
nanoscale and the single molecule level. During<br />
the last years novel approaches for single molecule<br />
handling have been developed in the<br />
department. They address the integration problem<br />
by aiming at parallel approaches to position<br />
individual molecular structures in prestructured<br />
microsystem environments, such as microelectrode<br />
gaps. In <strong>2005</strong>, this development was<br />
advanced by the adaptation of dielectrophoretic<br />
methods. The last years witnessed also impressive<br />
results in the synthesis and optical characterization<br />
of designer metal nanoparticles, providing<br />
particles with defined spectral properties.<br />
Thereby, the main focus of the department<br />
shifted towards molecular plasmonics, a field<br />
that combines the effect of surface plasmon<br />
resonance at metal nanostructures, such as<br />
metal nanoparticles, with molecular components.<br />
These molecular structures can either be<br />
used to influence the optical properties, thus representing<br />
the analyte (bioanalytics), or to realize<br />
novel nanoscale hybrid complexes of metal<br />
nanoparticles and molecular components. In<br />
these complexes, the molecules act as backbone<br />
to realize a connection with defined geometry<br />
(distance, angle etc.) at the nanometer<br />
scale. This research field was massively pushed<br />
by the international symposium “Molecular Plasmonics”<br />
that was organized in May by the<br />
department and brought many of the world leading<br />
scientists in this field to the <strong>IPHT</strong>.<br />
In order to convert these developments into applications<br />
the established platform technologies for<br />
DNA arraying and model system evaluation has<br />
been further extended. These activities included<br />
the first successful demonstration of the electrical<br />
DNA chip detection system for a biological<br />
application and the further extension of partnerships<br />
with innovative bioanalytic companies in<br />
order to get market-driven and application-oriented<br />
impulses for future research and development<br />
in this promising field.<br />
A. Molecular nanotechnology<br />
and plasmonics<br />
Electrical manipulation of DNA<br />
(A. Csaki, A. Wolff, R. Kretschmer, W. Fritzsche)<br />
The control of a precise positioning of (bio) molecular<br />
complexes onto microstructured substrates<br />
is a key requirement for molecular nanotechnology.<br />
The application of electrical fields<br />
represents an interesting alternative for this purpose.<br />
Electrical fields are a well-established technique<br />
for molecular manipulation and they are<br />
easily directed with microscale precision using<br />
microelectrodes. Therefore, prestructured microelectrodes<br />
that will later act as contacts to the<br />
complexes were utilized to apply fields of alternating<br />
current in order to position polarizable<br />
molecular structures from solution by dielectrophoresis.<br />
Molecules of lambda-phage DNA<br />
(about 16 µm long) could be successfully positioned<br />
in electrode gaps as revealed by fluorescence<br />
and scanning force microscopy.<br />
Fig. 3.6: Defined positioning of DNA molecules in<br />
microelectrode gaps (100 nm gold) on silicon oxide<br />
substrates by dielectrophoresis using 300 ng/µl<br />

1 MHz. AFM-images (left and center) and fluorescence<br />

Substrate-controlled orientation of DNA<br />
superstructures<br />
(J. Vesenka, A. Wolff, A. Reichert, W. Fritzsche)<br />
Another approach for aligned positioning of (bio)<br />
molecular structures is the utilization of substrate-inherent<br />
patterns of e.g. electrostatic<br />
charges. The observed effect of alignment of<br />
DNA superstructures (G wires) on mica substrates<br />
following three major directions was characterized<br />
and studied. By resolving the substrate<br />
of such samples with atomic resolution in the<br />
same experiment, it was found that the G-wires<br />
seem to align with the next nearest neighbor<br />
potassium vacancy sites of mica. Such auto-orientation<br />
phenomena could be utilized to address<br />
the fine-positioning of molecular structures e.g. in<br />
network formation. The self-organization character<br />
and the massive parallelization are features<br />
that make this approach very promising for future<br />
applications.<br />
67
MIKROSYSTEME / MICROSYSTEMS<br />
particles with defined optical features are<br />
required. Therefore, core-shell particles consisting<br />
of Ag/Au or Au/Ag were identified as especially<br />
promising systems to tune the resulting plasmon<br />
resonance (see figure 3D on the color<br />
page).<br />
Moreover, optical characterization at both ensemble<br />
and single particle level are needed. The last<br />
year witnessed the set-up of a spectroscopy system<br />
with single particle capabilities in the department<br />
(see figure 3E on the color page). Experiments<br />
demonstrated the ability to yield UV-VIS<br />
spectra of individual nanoparticles, together with<br />
AFM and optical images of this structure.<br />

Metal nanoparticles for molecular plasmonics<br />
(A. Steinbrück, A. Csaki, W. Fritzsche)<br />
Utilizing the optical properties of metal nanoparticles<br />
in combination with molecular complexes<br />
represents a promising recent development in<br />
molecular nanotechnology with envisioned applications<br />
especially for bioanalytics but also in<br />
nanophotonic devices. This field is based on the<br />
surface plasmon resonance effect in the particles.<br />
In order to realize complex systems the optical<br />
properties of the nanostructures have to be<br />
tuned and approaches to synthesize designer<br />
Photonic nanostructures combined<br />
with metal nanoparticles<br />
(A. Csaki, A. Steinbrück, S. Schröter,<br />
W. Fritzsche)<br />
Photonic nanostructures, such as nanoaperture<br />
arrays, show promising novel effects regarding<br />
e.g. transmission of light. The established experience<br />
with nanoparticle handling and ultramicroscopic<br />
characterization was applied in order to<br />
position metal nanoparticles in nanoapertures.<br />
Comparison of the transmission characteristics<br />
of the apertures with and without particles<br />
showed a higher transmission in the case of particle-modified<br />
openings. This effect seemed even<br />
enhanced when the particle where enlarged<br />
using specific metal deposition.<br />

B. DNA-chip Technology<br />
Characterization of specific metal deposition<br />
at single particle level<br />
(G. Festag, W. Fritzsche)<br />
Specific reductive deposition of silver on gold<br />
nanoparticles has a tremendous importance for<br />
numerous processes in molecular construction<br />
as well as in various kinds of bioanalytical methods<br />
for signal enhancement. AFM was used to<br />
study this process at the single particle level in<br />
order to reveal the influence of parameters like<br />
particle size, composition of enhancement solution,<br />
length of incubation etc. Because on-line<br />
measurements were not feasible, techniques<br />
were developed to relocate certain positions at<br />
the sample in order to image particle arrangements<br />
after every enhancement step.<br />
Target DNA binding is detected by a significantly<br />
reduced resistance in the respective gap<br />
because binding of the labeled target DNA will<br />
lead to metal deposition in a subsequent signal<br />
enhancement step. The results showed that the<br />
electrical DNA chip detection is able to clearly<br />
differentiate between the different species and<br />
allows for a straightforward identification of<br />
microorganisms.<br />

chip visualizes the silver deposition (especially in<br />
the 1+2 row and the last one) that leads to the<br />
electrically detectable signal at these positions.<br />
Electrical identification of microorganisms<br />
by DNA-chip technology<br />
(T. Schüler, R. Möller, W. Fritzsche)<br />
The electrical DNA-detection system that has<br />
been developed at the <strong>IPHT</strong> was for the first time<br />
applied to biological samples (PCR fragments).<br />
In collaboration with the Leibniz Institute for Natural<br />
Product Research and Infection Biology –<br />
Hans-Knöll-Institute (HKI) <strong>Jena</strong>, the electrical<br />
DNA detection was utilized to identify species<br />
of microorganisms. Therefore, capture DNA<br />
sequences, specific for each of the studied<br />
species, were immobilized into the electrode<br />
gaps prior to incubation with the target DNA.<br />
3.2.3 Micro system technology<br />
(Th. Henkel)<br />
Photonic instrumentation strongly depends on<br />
the integration of micromechanical and microoptical<br />
components with critical dimensions in the<br />
nanometer scale. Furthermore, LabOnChip systems<br />
for integrated sample placement and sample<br />
preparation are required for high-throughput<br />
microoptical applications, the retrieval of spatialand<br />
time-resolved spectral information and localized<br />
photochemical activation of sample ingredients.<br />
The aim of the microsystem technologies<br />
department is the development and fabrication of<br />
components for photonic instrumentation and the<br />

application of LabOnChip based microfluidic<br />
devices for integrated sample preparation and<br />
placement in micro optical systems. The newly<br />
developed technology for the preparation of allglass<br />
microfluidic devices with coplanar faces are<br />
in compliance with the requirements of microoptical<br />
systems.<br />
A. Microfluidics of liquid-liquid<br />
segmented sample streams<br />
Liquid-liquid segmented flow based on highly<br />
integrated LabOnChip devices offers a powerful<br />
and versatile approach for high-throughput processing<br />
of linearly organized sample streams.<br />
Currently, these fluidic networks are built up from<br />
individual chip modules which are interconnected<br />
by HPLC-capillaries. Since all operations have to<br />
be in plug mode, micro droplets need to be large<br />
enough, to seal a given channel completely. For<br />
widely used HPLC capillaries with an inner diameter<br />
of 0.5 mm this critical volume is about<br />
64 nl. With respect to this, modular systems are<br />
limited in compartment size and thus in throughput<br />
and sample density. Processing of segmented<br />
sample streams uses interface-generated<br />
forces for the maniplation of the micro droplets at<br />
functional nodes with optimized geometry and<br />
wetting conditions. Miniaturization of the channel<br />
system and the droplet volume increases the curvature<br />
of the interfaces and thus the pressure<br />
drop generated at the interface. In conclusion,<br />
not only throughput and sample density, but also<br />
reliability of the processes benefit from miniaturization<br />
and integration. Considering this, our work<br />
in development of LabOnChip devices is focused<br />
on the development of integrated LabOnChip<br />
devices for segmented flow based application.<br />
Toolkit for computational fluidic simulation<br />
and interactive parametrization<br />
of segmented-flow based fluidic networks<br />
(N. Gleichmann, M. Kielpinski, D. Malsch,<br />
T. Henkel)<br />
The main objectives of this work are the application<br />
of principles of electronic design automation<br />
(EDA) to the model based design and parameterization<br />
of segmented-flow based micro fluidic<br />
networks. This approach will significantly increase<br />
the efficiency in development of highly<br />
integrated LabOnChip devices for custom fluidic<br />
and micro chemical protocols. By that way,<br />
research and development of micro chemical and<br />
screening applications will benefit of the promising<br />
micro droplet-based approach of segmented<br />
flow. Our toolkit is based on a computational network<br />
of fluidic nodes, which are interconnected<br />
by virtual fluid ports for the transfer of segment<br />
streams. The particular behaviour of a functional<br />
node may be given by user definable rules, which<br />
are derived from experimental data and Computational<br />
Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations of the<br />
functional element. The geometry is dynamically<br />
generated from photolithographic mask data and<br />
process parameters. Segmented sample streams<br />
are implemented as lists. For interactive inspection<br />
of the interface geometries inside a functional<br />
node a software interface to the surface evolver<br />
is implemented.<br />
Fig. 3.12: Geometry of a drop passing a T-<br />
shaped junction with nozzle.<br />
The surface evolver starts with a dynamically<br />
generated mesh of the node itself and the correct<br />
position of the micro droplets inside the element.<br />
Wetting conditions and local contact angles<br />
are non-constraints and dynamically calculated<br />
from the interface energies. Channel geometry is<br />
generated from the photo lithographical mask<br />
data and the parameters of the etch process. The<br />
parameterization is realized by interactively<br />
changing the mask geometry of the fluidic nodes<br />
and analysing the results of the fluidic simulation.<br />
A complete run for a dynamic simulation takes a<br />
view minutes only. The network can operate with<br />
pressure and volume flow constraints. Currently it<br />
is implemented for non compressible liquid/liquid<br />
two-phase flows and the micro system technology<br />
of isotropic wet etching. The Toolkit consists of<br />
a C++ class library of components for fluidic network<br />
simulation, for user interaction and network<br />
visualization and for interfacing the surface<br />
evolver. In a first test case it was successfully<br />
applied for modelling a double injector module.<br />
Conceptual work on self-controled fluidic<br />
networks for segmented-flow based applications<br />
(M. Kielpinski, D. Malsch, G. Mayer, J. Albert,<br />
T. Henkel)<br />
Functional elements for sample generation, dosing<br />
of liquid into droplets and retrieval of individual<br />
samples from the sample stack, generation of<br />
stacked sequences and controlled fusion of adjacent<br />
segments within it’s segment stream have<br />
been reported and successfully applied for highthroughput<br />
applications. These processes are<br />
mainly effected and controlled by the dynamics of<br />
interface evolution at functional nodes and spe-

cial flow dynamics inside the micro droplets.<br />
Additional functionality is requested and proposed.<br />
This includes controlled 1:N fusion of multiple<br />
droplet sequences and controlled 1:N segment<br />
splitting. Unfortunately, these operations<br />
require synchronization of the flow of multiple<br />
droplet sequences and seem to require integration<br />
of actors and sensors for closed loop flow<br />
control into the micro fluidic device. Application of<br />
these approaches to fluidic networks would<br />
require a huge amount of integrated sensors and<br />
actors, each of them interfering with the others<br />
and thus, the software for control of these networks<br />
would be very complicated.<br />
Analyzing a segmented flow based system we<br />
can recognize, that all prerequisites for application<br />
of self control to these special micro fluidic<br />
systems are available. There are mobile interfaces,<br />
which can be used to seal junctions of the<br />
main channels temporarily. Obstructions can be<br />
used to increase or widenings to decrease the<br />
pressure, generated by the curved droplet interface.<br />
By that way, segmented flow provides the<br />
basics for the implementation of self-controlled<br />
functional elements and their integration into<br />
micro fluidic networks.<br />
Actual development has been focused on a first<br />
implementation of these concepts for the selfsynchronized<br />
1:1 fusion of two segment sequences.<br />
The functional node consists of a Y-shaped<br />
junction, where each inlet is equipped with an<br />
obstruction. The two inlet ports are connected by<br />
a bypass. If one segment reaches the obstruction<br />
it stops and the carrier flow is guided along the<br />
bypass to the second inlet of the Y-junction. It<br />
remains at the obstruction until a second droplet<br />
from the opposite channel reaches the junction.<br />
After this, fusion occurs followed by ejection of<br />
the formed droplet.<br />
Microfluidic devices for investigation of the fusion<br />
process have been developed and fabricated.<br />
Fig. 3.13: CFD-Simulation (right column) and<br />
experimental data (left column) of self-synchronized<br />
1:1 droplet fusion at a Y-junction with integrated<br />
bypass. Two sequences of micro droplets<br />
are transported each with constant flow rate to<br />
the Y-junction. The droplet, which first arrives at<br />
the stricture stops (Part B) and the carrier flow is<br />
guided through the bypass until a droplet from the<br />
opposite sequence arrives (Part C). Now droplet<br />
fusion occures (Part D) and the coalesced volume<br />
is ejected from the element.<br />
LabOnChip based system for identification<br />
of cancer cells<br />
(J. Felbel, M. Urban, M. Kielpinski, G. Mayer,<br />
T. Henkel)<br />
Main aim of the collaboration between health professionals,<br />
molecular biologists and micro system<br />
experts is the development of a LabOnChip based<br />
analysis system permitting the partly automated<br />
execution of micro flow-through-RT-PCR for the<br />
detection and counting of cancer cells in samples<br />

72<br />
from cancer patients. The device combines techniques<br />
of segmented flow with thermal management<br />
of sample streams, according the given molecular<br />
biological protocol and real-time optical<br />
readout of the amplification process. The PCR<br />
reaction unit was developed as all-glass microchannel<br />
chip module, which is based on a patented<br />
flow-through thermocycler-chip. Thermal management<br />
is realized by a micro system made heat<br />
plate, providing thermal control and management<br />
for up to four thermal zones with minimized dimensions<br />
of the thermal gap between the heater<br />
zones. The PCR sample droplets are cycled during<br />
the flow over specific temperature zones (see figure<br />
3F on the color page). Main advantage of this<br />
LabOnChip module is the ability to process a high<br />
number of individual samples, each embedded in<br />
a single micro droplet by the serial flow regime.<br />
Possible fields of application of the RT-PCR are<br />
clinical diagnostics. For the establishment of the<br />
system disseminated tumour cells in the blood of<br />
patients with cervical carcinoma will be detected.<br />
A special characteristic of these tumour cells is<br />
the expression of oncogenes encoded by Human<br />
Papillomaviruses (HPV), which can be specifically<br />
amplified by this procedure.<br />
A successful PCR reaction of HPV targets in<br />
microchannels was demonstrated.<br />
B. Chipmodules for analysis<br />
of micro combustion<br />
(G. Mayer, J. Albert, T. Henkel)<br />
Chip modules for investigation of miniaturized<br />
combustion processes have been developed and<br />
successfully tested during an internal collaboration.<br />
Integrated static micro-mixers allow the efficient<br />
mixing of fuel gas and oxygen at macroscopic<br />
explosive conditions and the controlled combustion<br />
at the outlet nozzle. Up to 2300 K may be<br />
generated in micro-flames with a width of 2 mm<br />
and a height of 3 mm during micro combustion of<br />
Fig. 3.15: All-glass chip with integrated static<br />
mixer for analysis of micro flames.<br />
oxygen and hydrogen. Detailed results on the<br />
analysis of these micro chemical high temperature<br />
processes are shown in the contribution of<br />
the laser diagnostics department in this annual<br />
report.<br />

4.1 Überblick<br />
Der Bereich Lasertechnik nutzt Laser als subtiles<br />
Werkzeug (Laserchemie) und als kontaktfreie<br />
Sonde (Laserdiagnostik). Die Hauptanwendungen<br />
als Werkzeug betreffen die<br />
Laserkristallisation von Silizium-Dünnschichten<br />
hauptsächlich für Solarzellen und zunehmend<br />
die Präparation von Silizium-Nanodrähten. Die<br />
Laserdiagnostik dient im Wesentlichen zur Charakterisierung<br />
von optischen Materialien, Dünnschichten<br />
und Komponenten sowie von Flammen.<br />
Für die Flammendiagnostik unter Mikrogravitation<br />
wird für den Fallturm Bremen ein<br />
abstimmbares und gepulstes UV-Scheibenlasersystem<br />
entwickelt. In allen genannten Gebieten<br />
zeigen die konsequente Aufbauarbeit in der<br />
Lasertechnik und ihre hohen Qualitätsstandards<br />
sehr gute Erfolge.<br />
4.1 Overview<br />
The division for Laser Technology applies lasers<br />
as subtle tools and as remote probes. The most<br />
important applications as a tool refer to laser<br />
crystallisation of silicon thin films for solar cells<br />
and increasingly to the preparation of silicon<br />
nanowires. Laser diagnostics is essentially used<br />
to characterise optical materials, thin films, and<br />
components as well as flames. For flame diagnostics<br />
under microgravity in the drop tower Bremen,<br />
a tuneable and pulsed UV disk laser system<br />
has been developed. Overall, the thorough establishment<br />
of laser technology and high quality<br />
standards are putting forth very good results.<br />
The Laser Chemistry section at <strong>IPHT</strong> is dominantly<br />
active in the field of solar cells (design and<br />
preparation) and is well established in the photo-

Die Abteilung Laserchemie arbeitet zum größten<br />
Teil auf dem Gebiet der Solarzellen (Design und<br />
Herstellung) und ist in der Photovoltaik(PV) fest<br />
verankert, in F&E-Fachkreisen (z.B. PVUniNetz<br />
und Solar INPUT) und Industriepartnerschaften<br />
(z.B. Firma Ersol, Erfurt und Antec Solar, Arnstadt).<br />
Herausragendes Projektergebnis im Jahr<br />
<strong>2005</strong> ist die produktionsnahe Präparation von<br />
Silizium-Kristallkeimschichten mit einem industrietauglichen<br />
Diodenlasersystem, das neben<br />
einer deutlichen Kapazitätssteigerung durch eine<br />
Laserleistung von 0,7 kW gegenüber 10–20 W<br />
aus einem Ar + -Laser auch eine Kristallkeimvergrößerung<br />
von 0,01–0,1 mm auf 0,1 bis wenige<br />
mm bewirkt (s. Farbbildseite).<br />
In enger Zusammenarbeit mit dem Institut für<br />
Festkörperphysik der Friedrich-Schiller-Universität,<br />
dem MPI für Mikrostrukturphysik, Halle und<br />
der Uníversität Halle ist das neue Arbeitsfeld mit<br />
nanostrukturierten Halbleitern auf eine breitere<br />
Basis gestellt worden. Zu der bereits 2004 etablierten<br />
CVD-Methode sind zur Präparation von<br />
Nanodrähten aus Silizium die Elektronenstrahlverdampfung<br />
und die Laserablation hinzugekommen.<br />
Inzwischen gelingt es, Nanodrähte in<br />
Vorzugsrichtungen wachsen zu lassen (Abb. 4.2).<br />
Die Abteilung Laserdiagnostik hat ihre Methodenvielfalt<br />
um die Frequenzverdopplung (SHG =<br />
second harmonic generation) von Femtosekundenlaserpulsen<br />
an Grenzflächen erweitert (Doktorarbeit<br />
T. Scheidt „summa cum laude“, vgl. auch<br />
Abb. 4.6) und kann damit selbst monomolekulare<br />
Dünnschichten diagnostizieren. Die an optischen<br />
Massivmaterialien erprobten Transmissions- und<br />
Absorptionsmessungen haben mit der Doktorarbeit<br />
von Ch. Mühlig („magna cum laude“) einen<br />
neuen Qualitätsstandard erreicht (Abb. 4.4 und<br />
4.5). Absorptionsmessungen mit Teststrahlablenkung<br />
(LID = laser induced deflection) und die<br />
laserinduzierte Fluoreszenz (LIF) gelingen zunehmend<br />
auch an Dünnschichten und optischen<br />
Komponenten durch Empfindlichkeitssteigerungen<br />
und/oder Konzeptverbesserungen der Messmethoden.<br />
Die Entwicklung des Scheibenlasersystems<br />
(ADL-FT = Advanced Disk Laser für Fallturm)<br />
machte <strong>2005</strong> – in bewährter Zusammenarbeit mit<br />
dem IFSW (Stuttgart) und ZARM (Bremen) –<br />
große Fortschritte. Die Ergebnisse aus den<br />
ersten Fallturm-Abwürfen haben inzwischen zu<br />
Konzeptverbesserungen geführt. Im <strong>IPHT</strong> gelang<br />
mit diesem Lasertyp auch die kurzwellige Anregung<br />
von OH-Radikalen für die Flammendiagnostik,<br />
in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Bereich<br />
Mikrosysteme auch an Mikroflammen (ca. 5 mm<br />
breit, 35 mm hoch, Abb. 4.7). In Kooperation mit<br />
dem Bereich Optik gelang auch die Laserdiagnostik<br />
an Partikel-„beladenen“ Flammen, die beispielsweise<br />
zur Glassynthese dienen.<br />
voltaics R&D community (e.g. PVUniNetz and<br />
Solar INPUT) and in industrial partnerships (e.g.<br />
Ersol company, Erfurt and Antec Solar, Arnstadt).<br />
The prominent success in <strong>2005</strong> consists of the<br />
production relevant preparation of silicon crystalline<br />
seed layers with a laser diode system suitable<br />
for industrial application. Not only was<br />
the throughput increased by using a 0.7 kW<br />
diode laser instead of the previous 10–20 W Ar +<br />
laser but also an enlargement of the crystallite<br />
size from 0.01–0.1 mm to 0.1–several mm was<br />
achieved (cf. coloured page).<br />
In close cooperation with the Institute of Solid<br />
State Physics at the Friedrich-Schiller-University,<br />
the Max-Planck-Institute of Microstructural Physics<br />
at Halle and the University of Halle, the new field<br />
of nanostructured semiconductors has been put<br />
onto an enlarged basis. The CVD method available<br />
in 2004 for nanowire preparation has been<br />
complemented by electron beam evaporation<br />
and laser ablation of silicon. Meanwhile we manage<br />
to grow epitaxial nanowires into preferred<br />
directions (Fig. 4.2).<br />
The Laser Diagnostics section has added frequency<br />
doubling (SHG = second harmonic generation)<br />
of femtosecond laser pulses on surfaces<br />
to its variety of experimental methods (PhD thesis<br />
of T. Scheidt “summa cum laude”, also cf.<br />
Fig. 4.6) enabling to characterize even monomolecular<br />
thin layers. The transmission and absorption<br />
measurement methods established with optical<br />
bulk materials achieved a new quality standard<br />
(PhD thesis of Ch. Mühlig, “magna cum<br />
laude”, also cf. Figs. 4.4 and 4.5). Absorption<br />
measurements with laser induced deflection<br />
(LID) of a probe beam and the laser induced fluorescence<br />
(LIF) now can more and more be<br />
transferred to thin films and optical components<br />
due to sensitivity enhancements and/or improved<br />
concepts of the measurement methods.<br />
The development of the disk laser system (ADL<br />
FT = Advanced Disk Laser for “Fallturm”) showed<br />
– in the experienced cooperation with IFSW<br />
(Stuttgart) and ZARM (Bremen) – much progress<br />
in <strong>2005</strong>. The results of the first experiments in the<br />
drop tower meanwhile induced several conceptual<br />
improvements. At <strong>IPHT</strong>, experiments with this<br />
kind of laser were performed at short wavelengths<br />
suitable to excite OH radicals in flames, in<br />
cooperation with the division for Microsystems<br />
even in microflames (5 mm broad, 35 mm high,<br />
Fig. 4.7). In cooperation with the Optics division<br />
laser diagnostics could be shown for particle<br />
“loaded” flames suitable e.g. for glass synthesis.<br />
Due to the extraordinary efforts of all coworkers<br />
during <strong>2005</strong> the division for Laser Technology<br />
managed to nearly maintain its project funds,<br />
level of publications, and patents in spite of the<br />
tough situation with governmental funds and the

Dank besonderem Engagement aller Mitarbeiter<br />
konnte der Bereich Lasertechnik <strong>2005</strong> trotz der<br />
verschärften Situation bei den öffentlichen Fördermitteln<br />
und des allgemein geringen Wirtschaftswachstums<br />
sein Niveau bei den Drittmittelprojekten,<br />
Veröffentlichungen und Patenten wenigstens<br />
in etwa halten. Das Drittmittelaufkommen von rund<br />
1,0 Mio “ liegt merklich unter dem Niveau des Vorjahres<br />
(1,2 Mio “). Insgesamt haben jedoch die<br />
mit dem Umzug erreichten kurzen Wege zu den<br />
anderen <strong>IPHT</strong>-Forschungsbereichen einen deutlichen<br />
Zuwachs bei der bereichsübergreifenden<br />
Zusammenarbeit bewirkt.<br />
generally poor rate of economic growth. The project<br />
funds in <strong>2005</strong> of about 1.0 Mio are close to<br />
the amount of 2004 (1.2 Mio “). Overall the move<br />
to the Beutenberg campus yielded, however, a<br />
considerable strengthening of trans-divisional<br />
cooperation due to the short distances to the<br />
other <strong>IPHT</strong> research divisions.<br />
4.2 Selected Results<br />
4.2.1 Laser chemistry<br />
Laser chemistry at <strong>IPHT</strong> is essentially concerned<br />
with the deposition of thin films and thin film systems,<br />
their physicochemical modification (particularly<br />
laser crystallisation) and some special<br />
items like spectroscopic diagnostics of thin film<br />
processing, nanowire preparation, and fs laser<br />
micromachining.<br />
Laser crystallisation<br />
(Gudrun Andrä, Joachim Bergmann,<br />
Arne Bochmann, Fritz Falk, Annett Gawlik,<br />
Ekkehardt Ose)<br />
For several years, <strong>IPHT</strong> has been aiming at the<br />
preparation of thin film solar cells consisting of<br />
large grained crystalline silicon on glass. The<br />
development of this new cell type is based on the<br />
deposition of amorphous silicon either by plasma<br />
CVD from SiH 4 (13.6 MHz) or by electron beam<br />
evaporation of bulk silicon and its in situ laser<br />
crystallisation. In a first step large crystal grains<br />
are obtained from 300–500 nm thick amorphous<br />
silicon layers by cw laser crystallisation (seed<br />
layer formation). Subsequently the seed layer<br />
undergoes epitaxial thickening by pulsed Layered<br />
Laser Crystallisation (LLC), an <strong>IPHT</strong> patented<br />
method. So far laboratory cells with an open circuit<br />
voltage of 510 mV and a conversion efficiency<br />
of 4.8% based on an absorber thickness of<br />
5 µm were obtained. Recent work addressed the<br />
acceleration (industrial application) and optimisation<br />
of the seed layer formation by applying a<br />
700 W diode laser focused to a line and scanned<br />
across the substrates to achieve crystallite sizes<br />
of 0.1 to several mm (cf. coloured page). Additional<br />
progress for the solar cell performance is<br />
expected from improving light trapping, improving<br />
contact and shunt resistances as well as minimising<br />
charge carrier recombination. The related<br />
work benefits from the discussions and cooperation<br />
with the Hahn-Meitner-Institute (HMI) at<br />
Berlin, Solar-Zentrum Erfurt at CiS, Ersol company<br />
at Erfurt, and INPUT Solar, a Thuringian association<br />

Thin film deposition and nanowire growth<br />
(Gudrun Andrä, Fritz Falk, Herbert Stafast,<br />
Thomas Stelzner)<br />
The deposition of Si/C/N thin films for tribological<br />
applications by RF plasma enhanced CVD using<br />
single source precursors was performed within<br />
the DFG program SPP 1119 in close cooperation<br />
with TU Darmstadt and RWTH Aachen. <strong>IPHT</strong><br />
contributed to the understanding of the complex<br />
CVD processes by comparing Si/C/N thin films<br />
obtained from two precursors, hexamethyldisilazane<br />
(CH 3 ) 3 Si-NH-Si(CH 3 ) 3 (HMDS) and<br />
bis(trimethylsilyl)carbodiimide (CH 3 ) 3 Si-N=C=N-<br />
Si(CH 3 ) 3 (BTSC). Hard Si/C/N thin films were<br />
obtained on the RF powered, but not on the<br />
grounded electrode. Therefore a heating system<br />
for the RF electrode was developed which<br />
allowed to investigate the substrate temperature<br />
dependence of the thin film properties. As an<br />
example the temperature dependence of the film<br />
hardness is sketched out in Fig. 4.1.<br />

LASERTECHNIK / LASER TECHNOLOGY<br />
As a new field of research at <strong>IPHT</strong>, silicon<br />
nanowires are grown by thermal and plasma<br />
enhanced CVD from SiH 4 or electron beam evaporation<br />
via a gold nanodot supported vapor-liquid-solid<br />
mechanism. This work is performed in<br />
close cooperation with the universities of <strong>Jena</strong><br />
and Halle as well as the Max-Planck-Institute of<br />
Microstructural Physics at Halle. Evidently the<br />
nanowire growth conditions now can be sufficiently<br />
controlled to achieve well oriented epitaxial<br />
silicon wires with diameters ranging from<br />
50 nm to 1 µm (Fig. 4.2).<br />
Laser ablation<br />
(Gudrun Andrä, Fritz Falk, Joachim Bergmann,<br />
A. Bochmann)<br />
Femtosecond (fs) laser ablation for micromachining<br />
of hard metal tools as a spin-off from an<br />
InnoRegio project was presented at the LASER<br />
<strong>2005</strong> fair at Munich. The potential of fs laser<br />
micromachining could, in addition, be demonstrated<br />
in case of a diamond tip sharpened by fs<br />
laser ablation (Fig. 4.3). This result demonstrates<br />
the importance of nonlinear processes as diamond<br />
has an indirect bandgap of 5.48 eV (direct:<br />
7.3 eV) which is very large in comparison to the<br />
laser photon energy of 1.6 eV.<br />
Fig. 4.3: Diamond tip sharpened by fs laser ablation.<br />
4.2.2 Laser diagnostics<br />
The Laser Diagnostics section applies different<br />
types of lasers as remote and contactless probes<br />
particularly to characterise optical materials,<br />
components, and thin films and to investigate<br />
flames. Some years ago, the development of<br />
solid state lasers dedicated to flame diagnostics<br />
has been successfully established.<br />
Fig. 4.2: Silicon nanowires grown by CVD on<br />
Si(111), Si(100), and Si(110) surfaces (top to<br />
bottom).<br />
In <strong>2005</strong> two high ranking PhD theses were<br />
submitted to the Friedrich-Schiller-University:<br />
Ch. Mühlig could considerably improve the<br />
understanding of the ArF laser pulse absorption<br />
by fused silica and CaF 2 (magna cum laude). In<br />
both materials laser absorption is related to the<br />
generation and annealing of defects. T. Scheidt<br />
revealed 5 new laser induced effects at the technologically<br />
important Si/SiO 2 interface applying<br />
the surface second harmonic generation (SSHG)<br />
method using fs laser pulses (summa cum<br />
laude). He performed his experiments at the<br />
Laser Research Institute at the University of Stellenbosch,<br />
South Africa, after having built up the fs<br />
laser laboratory from scratch.<br />

LASERTECHNIK / LASER TECHNOLOGY<br />
UV optical materials<br />
(Alfons Burkert, Siegfried Kufert,<br />
Christian Mühlig, Wolfgang Triebel)<br />
UV laser lithography and other laser applications<br />
impose severe challenges on the optical quality<br />
and laser durability of bulk and thin film materials.<br />
<strong>IPHT</strong> has specialised for more than one decade<br />
on selected methods for their characterisation.<br />
Experience has been accumulated in close cooperation<br />
with Schott Lithotec company as the longstanding<br />
industrial partner as well as Jenoptik<br />
L.O.S. and Layertec companies and the FhG IOF<br />
within the last few years. The facilities, knowledge<br />
and experience of these institutions and<br />
<strong>IPHT</strong> complement each other to their mutual benefit,<br />
making <strong>Jena</strong> a place of high standards at the<br />
leading edge worldwide.<br />
The measurement methods at <strong>IPHT</strong> using<br />
excimer lasers at 248, 193, and 157 nm comprise<br />
(i) UV laser beam transmission, (ii) measurement<br />
of absorption by the laser induced probe beam<br />
deflection (LID) method, (iii) laser induced fluorescence<br />
(LIF), (iv) pulsed UV laser Raman spectroscopy,<br />
(v) vacuum UV spectroscopy, and (vi)<br />
wavefront deformation (S-H sensor). These have<br />
been complemented by (vii) surface second harmonic<br />
generation (SSHG) using fs laser pulses.<br />
small H values and unequivocally revealed a nonlinear<br />
dependence. This finding has a great<br />
impact on the extrapolation of the α(H=0) values<br />
which usually are used to estimate the materials`<br />
quality and laser durability. The α(H) data are<br />
reproduced by an empirical absorption model in<br />
the whole investigated H range (Fig. 4.4: solid<br />
line).<br />
In addition, the LID method can be calibrated<br />
absolutely and can separate laser absorption in<br />
the bulk material from that on surfaces. Bulk and<br />
surface absorption are calibrated by applying<br />
electrical resistance heaters introduced into the<br />
sample or attached to the selected sample surface<br />
area, respectively (Fig. 4.5). The method of<br />
sample surface heating has also been used to<br />
calibrate laser absorption in optical thin films, e.g.<br />
absorption in dielectric layers of highly reflective<br />
mirrors.<br />
The progress in investigating bulk absorption of<br />
excimer laser pulses by fused silica gained by<br />
applying the LID method becomes easily apparent<br />
in Fig. 4.4. Looking at the fluence dependence<br />
of the ArF laser absorption, it previously<br />
appeared to be a linear relation between the<br />
absorption coefficient α and the fluence H. These<br />
results from the Laser Laboratory Göttingen<br />
obtained by calorimetry were, however, limited to<br />
the high H region. The improved sensitivity of the<br />
LID method at <strong>IPHT</strong> (cf. e.g. annual report 2004)<br />
enabled us to investigate the α(H) behaviour at<br />
Fig. 4.5: Samples prepared for absolute calibration<br />
of laser absorption by using electrical resistance<br />
heaters introduced into the sample (bulk<br />
absorption) or attached to the sample surface<br />
(surface absorption).<br />
Fig. 4.4: ArF laser absorption coefficients α of<br />
fused silica as a function of the applied laser<br />
energy fluence H; α values in high H range<br />
obtained by calorimetry and α values in low H<br />
range by LID method (cf. text).<br />
The investigation of (inner) surfaces and thin<br />
films can be conveniently performed by SSHG.<br />
As an example Fig. 4.6 demonstrates that the<br />
SSHG signal obtained from the interface<br />
between silicon and its 5 nm thin natural oxide<br />
layer is sensitive to p-type doping of the silicon<br />
sample: The electric field induced SH (EFISH)<br />
signal at the beginning of irradiation is very small<br />
(no or low doping, upper part) or large (high doping,<br />
lower part). The signal development during<br />
irradiation shows how the doping induced field<br />

Fig. 4.6: EFISH signal development (cf. text) at<br />
Si/SiO 2 surfaces with oxidized silicon of low<br />
(upper part) and high p-type doping (lower part).<br />
across the Si/SiO 2 interface is steadily compensated<br />
and overwhelmed by laser induced electron<br />
injection into the SiO 2 layer building up an<br />
electric field of opposite direction. In addition the<br />
SSHG method was successfully applied to detect<br />
the damage of monomolecular surface layers<br />
induced by excimer laser irradiation.<br />
Further investigations of optical materials and<br />
components in <strong>2005</strong> refer to the laser durability of<br />
fused silica (undesired microchannel formation),<br />
CaF 2 (HELD = high energy laser durability project),<br />
optical layers (impurity and defect detection)<br />
as well as the performance of optical functional<br />
elements.<br />
Combustion processes<br />
(Dirk Müller, Wolfgang Paa, Wolfgang Triebel)<br />
Laser diagnostics is applied to investigate steady<br />
state and dynamic flames up to pulse repetition<br />
rates of 1 kHz. The well-established detection of<br />
OH radicals by LIF now has – in cooperation with<br />
the Optics division – also successfully been<br />
applied to flames of industrial burners containing<br />
particles (loaded flames) and used to determine<br />
local gas temperatures. On the other hand, the LIF<br />
method is capable of characterising very small<br />
flames created by microburners which were prepared<br />
in the division for Microsystems (Fig. 4.7).<br />
The breadboard model of the advanced disk<br />
laser system (ADL) at <strong>IPHT</strong> <strong>Jena</strong> was further<br />
improved and tested to generate 2D-LIF images<br />
of OH in flames. This required generating the<br />
third harmonic of the ADL pulses efficiently with<br />
sufficiently high pulse energy. Furthermore, some<br />
preliminary work has been performed towards<br />
fast wavelength switching of the ADL system<br />
using the available tuning components at the high<br />
laser pulse repetition rate.<br />
Moreover the ADL-FT (Fallturm) system was tested<br />
in several drops with maximum deceleration of<br />
about 35 g in polystyrene granulate: Evidently the<br />
laser system survives these procedures. Convection,<br />
however, is still present in front of the laser<br />
disk and changes when microgravity conditions<br />
start. These changes are small but sufficient to<br />
influence the laser operation so that some revisions<br />
of the laser system and operation are required.<br />

Tantalum pentoxide layers are particularly suitable<br />
for a variety of optical applications due to<br />
their high refractive index, low absorption from<br />
the visible to the infrared, good adhesion to glass<br />
and silicon substrates, and high resistance to<br />
acids and bases. Furthermore, nanoporous<br />
Ta 2 O 5 layers could be a promising material for<br />
optical sensors. We have investigated several<br />
fabrication technologies for optical waveguide<br />
grating couplers and two-dimensional resonant<br />
gratings in compact and nanoporous Ta 2 O 5 layers<br />
as devices for optochemical and biophotonic sensors,<br />
and characterised their optical properties.<br />
Because of the afore mentioned optical properties<br />
and the high melting point of about 1800 °C,<br />
Ta 2 O 5 has potential as an intermediate layer for<br />
thin film solar cells.<br />
Waveguide grating couplers<br />
Electron beam exposure (LION LV1) or DUV<br />
interference lithography at 244 nm were applied<br />
to the patterning of about 300 nm thick resist<br />
(ZEP or ARP610) gratings with periods of 410 to<br />
420 nm atop a NiCr/C/NiCr hard mask sputtered<br />
onto the Ta 2 O 5 layers on quartz or borofloat glass<br />
substrates. The resist gratings were transferred<br />
by a multi-step etching process into the bottom<br />
NiCr layer, and from this by Ar-IBE, 40 to 70 nm<br />
into the Ta 2 O 5 layer. An example is shown in<br />
Fig. E1.<br />
Fig. E1: SEM picture of a grating with a period of<br />
416 nm etched 67 nm into a 147 nm thick Ta 2 O 5<br />
layer. The visible surface texture is created by the<br />
gold coating for the SEM.<br />
For the nanoporous layers it was necessary to<br />
cool the substrate down to –20 °C during etching<br />
in order to maintain porosity. At higher temperatures<br />
it is supposed that a compaction of the<br />
material occurs. The sensor functionality for the<br />
nanoporous layers was also verified by considering<br />
the adsorption isotherms in water vapour as<br />
an example.<br />
Fig. E2 shows the transmission spectra of a grating<br />
coupler for the case of a grating with a period<br />
of 416 nm etched into a 600 nm thick nanoporous<br />
Ta 2 O 5 layer at two different water vapour<br />
pressures of 3.5·10 –2 mbar (dry) and 22 mbar<br />
(wet). The magnitude of the spectral shifts<br />
depends on the quantity of water molecules<br />
adsorbed in the nanopores and the related<br />
refractive index change.<br />
Fig. E2: Spectral shift of transmission minima<br />
with humidity due to the coupling of the normally<br />
incident TE polarised light with two different<br />
waveguide modes.<br />
The observed shifts of 8.5 and 9.3 nm for the<br />
short and long wavelength minimum, respectively,<br />
are in good agreement with a change in the<br />
refractive index from about 2.01 to 2.05.<br />
2D resonant waveguide gratings<br />
Resonance diffraction effects from 2D dielectric<br />
gratings can be used to create very sensitive<br />
angle and/or wavelength encoded sensors. Ta 2 O 5<br />
layers perforated with square or triangular lattices<br />
of air holes are suitable for this purpose. Gratings<br />
with a period of e.g. 620 nm exhibit, for hole<br />
diameters between about 200 and 400 nm, pronounced<br />
resonant diffraction properties at least<br />
within the spectral region from 700 to 1350 nm.<br />
The fabrication technology was essentially the<br />
same as for the grating couplers. The ARP671<br />
resist masks were created by e-beam exposure<br />
(ZBA23). In order to obtain steep edge profiles an<br />
ECR-RIE process with a CF 4 /CHF 3 plasma was<br />
applied to transfer the pattern from the NiCr mask
into the Ta 2 O 5 layers. Unlike for porous layers the<br />
samples of compact material had to be heated<br />
up to 150 °C for optimal results.<br />
An example of a triangular grating in nanoporous<br />
Ta 2 O 5 is shown in Fig. E3.<br />

620 nm and an average hole diameter of about<br />
230 nm at the top etched 150 nm into a 600 nm<br />

60°.<br />
The polarisation independent transmission spectra<br />
for normal incident light for the case of a dry<br />
and wet environment are displayed in Fig. E4.<br />
The pronounced transmission minima at λ ><br />
830 nm are caused by resonant diffraction<br />
effects.<br />

grating with the parameters given in Fig. E3,<br />
assuming cylindrical holes with a diameter of<br />
210 nm.<br />
A variety of different devices which include the<br />
square lattices of holes have been fabricated in<br />
compact and humidity sensitive Ta 2 O 5 layers and<br />
are currently under detailed investigation.<br />
The nanoporous tantalum pentoxide samples<br />
were provided by the Fraunhofer IOF in <strong>Jena</strong> and<br />
investigated here mainly because it could be possible<br />
selectively to measure the moisture content<br />
of other than water vapour analytes.<br />
The filling of the holes of two-dimensional gratings<br />
with metallic nanoparticles provides an<br />
opportunity for the biosensing of e.g. DNA molecules<br />
immobilised on gold nanoparticles. This<br />
method utilises the special plasmon scattering<br />
properties of the ordered arrays.<br />
Chemically activated samples with 2D-gratings<br />
were placed at an angle into preheated (80 °C)<br />
colloidal nanoparticle solutions (30 nm in diameter)<br />
with a concentration of 2 · 10 11 particles/ml.<br />
During the drying process the receding meniscus<br />
causes an influx of the metal nanoparticles into<br />
the holes, see Fig. E6.<br />
Fig. E4: Spectral shift of the transmission minima<br />
between dry and wet samples (∆λ min = 10.4 and<br />
13.5 nm for the first and second resonance wavelength,<br />
respectively).<br />
By simulating the transmission behaviour with a<br />
rigorous coupled wave method, a sufficient<br />
agreement with the experiment was obtained for<br />
150 nm deep cylindrical holes with a diameter of<br />
210 nm, see Fig. E5.<br />
A change of the refractive index from 1.97 to 2.01<br />
yields ∆λ min = 13 and 15 nm for the first and second<br />
transmission minimum, respectively, and all<br />
wavelengths of the transmission minima differ<br />
from the experimental values by less than 1.5 nm.<br />

The varying shades (spectrum from white to<br />
greenish-blue in a colour picture) indicate the different<br />
level of filling and positioning accuracy. In<br />
order to improve the homogeneity a further optimisation<br />
of this technique is required.<br />
Thin film solar cells<br />
For the first time layered laser crystallised (LLC)<br />
thin film solar cells were prepared on borofloat<br />
glass substrates covered with a tantalum pentoxide<br />
layer.<br />
Our standard cell structure is sketched in Fig. E7.<br />
Immediately on top of the borofloat glass sub-<br />
Fig. E7: Design of a standard LLC cell.<br />
strate a multicrystalline silicon layer system with<br />
grains exceeding 100 µm in size is deposited.<br />
The layer system consists of a p + -doped highly<br />
conductive seed layer, a p-doped absorber layer<br />
and an n-doped emitter layer. A metal electrode<br />
acts as a light reflector. The seed layer is prepared<br />
by cw laser crystallisation of amorphous<br />
silicon. The absorber and emitter are prepared by<br />
continuously depositing amorphous silicon on top<br />
of the seed combined with repeated excimer<br />
laser irradiation in order to guarantee epitaxial<br />
growth. In various papers it has been demonstrated<br />
that intermediate layers between the<br />
glass and silicon may increase the cell efficiency<br />
by reducing the reflection loss. Moreover, the barrier<br />
may act as a light trapping structure due to<br />
surface scattering and as a diffusion barrier<br />
against foreign atoms of the glass. In the case of<br />
LLC cells the intermediate layer has to withstand<br />
the laser crystallisation process. Standard layers<br />
usually applied in solar cells such as SnO 2 , ZnO<br />
or a-SiN x :H do not meet this requirement.<br />
Because of its suitable optical properties and<br />
high melting point of above 1800 °C we expect<br />
tantalum pentoxide layers to be an interesting<br />
alternative. Therefore, we tested the laser stability<br />
of this material. We demonstrated that on<br />
Ta 2 O 5 layers LLC solar cells can be prepared successfully.<br />
However, it turned out that Ta 2 O 5 layers<br />
require an excimer laser pretreatment. Without<br />
the pretreatment layer damage was observed<br />
after laser crystallisation of amorphous silicon<br />
due to the formation of gas bubbles. Moreover,<br />
due to the laser pretreatment the Ta 2 O 5 layer surface<br />
roughens so that increased light scattering<br />
is observed which is beneficial for the solar cell.<br />
In Fig. E8 a current-voltage diagram of a 2 µm<br />
thick cell with a tantalum pentoxide intermediate<br />
layer is shown, as compared to a standard cell. In<br />
both cases no metal reflector for light trapping<br />
was present. Even though the Ta 2 O 5 cell has inferior<br />
properties as compared to the standard cell it<br />
is still a positive result. It was demonstrated that<br />
the intermediate layer has the desired properties.<br />
In order to improve the cell parameters the<br />
excimer laser pretreatment has to be optimised<br />
so that the crystal quality of the silicon is<br />
increased to that of the standard cells.<br />
