Starting from February 2023, we will be offering monthly insights into our research on our YouTube channel. The first video shows the photolithographic production of an actuator membrane for a mid-ear actuator; presented by Eileen Müller.

The Magnetic and Biomedical Applications research group was involved, among other things, in research into a mid-ear actuator for the treatment of hearing loss. Various processes are used to manufacture such a system in our clean room. The focus here is on photolithography. This consists of the core steps of coating, exposure and development.
