Laura Fütterer receives Best Paper Award at International MID Congress

ITA | How can polymer optical waveguides be manufactured on 3D circuit carriers? This is what physicist Laura Fütterer at the Institute of Transport and Automation Technology (ITA) is researching. She received the Best Paper Award at the International MID Congress.

Mosquito waveguides on MID

“Ensuring reliable data transmission in highly electromagnetic inflicted applications is sometimes not possible with conventional electronic systems,” Laura Fütterer explained at the International MID Congress in Amberg, Germany, in June 2023. “Optical waveguides offer great potential to meet this challenge. In the context of miniaturization, it is also necessary to manufacture these optical conductors on three-dimensional circuit carriers, such as MIDs. Additive manufacturing can usefully address key problems such as optoelectronic coupling.” Laura Fütterer is conducting research on this topic in the 3D-MosquitOPrint project. Mosquito is a wet-on-wet process for creating optical waveguides.

Best Paper Award

For her paper “Mosquito-Dispensed Waveguides in Cavities on 3D-MID” Laura Fütterer received the Best Paper Award at the International MID Congress. In her paper of the same name, Laura Fütterer systematically dealt with the wet-on-wet Mosquito process. In this process, optical cladding and core are applied into each other in two dispensing stages. The 24-year-old, who is working closely with the Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V. (LZH) on her research project, is particularly interested in the questions of how the waveguides can be optoelectronically coupled and how end surfaces can be prepared using different processes. In the Cluster of Excellence PhoenixD, she is also responsible for the overall integration as well as the assembly and interconnection technology of a quantum cryptography demonstrator.

Not only scientifically fit

Beyond her scientific work, Laura Fütterer inspires the Institute of Transport and Automation Technology (ITA) with her soccer skills, which she shows at institute and network events as well as at the HSC Hannover. After her move from MF Göttingen to the capital of Lower Saxony, she is not only able to score on the pitch with a high hit rate. With her success at the International MID Congress, Laura Fütterer also proves her tackling strength rhetorically on stage as well as at the keyboard.
