Workshop in the framework of the M&MEMS project

Researchers from the European Horizon Europe project “M&MEMS – Magnonics Meets Micro Electro Mechanical Systems” recently met at TUM to present the latest progress in the development of hybrid micromagnetic devices for high-frequency applications. A major highlight of the workshop was the live demonstration of a newly developed multi-channel phase shifter fabricated within the project.

The demonstrator combines magnonic and MEMS technologies to realize a compact and energy-efficient phase shifter for future adaptive communication and radar systems. By electrically actuating micromechanical cantilevers, the device enables precise control of radio-frequency signal phases across four individually controllable channels while consuming minimal power. Such systems could play an important role in future 5G/6G beamforming applications, satellite communication, and radar technology.

The project consortium, coordinated by Philipp Pirro (RPTU Kaiserslautern-Landau), brings together partners from academia and industry across Europe. At TUM, the project involves researchers from the Professorship of Chip Based Magnetic Sensor Technology, including Markus Becherer and Johannes Greil.
