Heike Bartsch
Heike Bartsch received her diploma in precision engineering (Technische Universität Ilmenau) in 1994. The research field has developed along the lines of micromechanics and systems integration. Mayor topics are glass structuring, multilayer ceramics, implementation of functional materials, and system integration. After joining a start-up, the academic career was pursued in 2005, and finished with Ph.D. in 2009 in the field of microsystems technology with a focus on ceramic MEMS.
The focus during the post-doc period at the Institute of Micro- and Nanotechnologies MacroNano®, an interdisciplinary facility of TU Ilmenau, was on ceramic MEMS and Bio-MEMS. Since 2019 she is a senior researcher in the Electronic Technology Group at the same institute with major research interests in cutting-edge micro-structuring methods for ceramic green tapes, heterogeneous systems, and ceramic MEMS involving the fields of material science and system design. Teaching activities cover the field of electronic technology.
Session
An example of practical training in the field of microtechnology is presented. Students are first brought in contact with a process by a video tutorial, have then the chance to deepen their knowledge, and finally carry out their own works. The technological process of creating a low-temperature co-fired ceramic circuit board is the topic of the lecture and students learn know different equipment before they start their own hands-on work.
