Rattling and cracking noises spoil the joy of a new e-bike. Researchers at the Fraunhofer IWU Dresden have developed a test bench that detects annoying noises at the prototype stage. This enables manufacturers to optimize their premium bikes in a targeted manner and bring them to series production. | more
Diamonds with flaws as a tool for science: the new professor Aparajita Singha at TU Dresden uses special diamond sensors to measure magnetic signals from individual atoms. Her ambitious goal for the next five years is to carry out these measurements at room temperature - something that no one else in the world has yet managed to do. Her research in the Cluster of Excellence ctd.qmat is an important basis for future quantum computers and strengthens Saxony's position in quantum technology. | more
