Kamil Baranowski, a PhD candidate in our partner institution Wrocław University of Science and Technology (WUST), has been awarded 2nd Prize for the Best Presentation by a Young Scientist at the 18th International Conference on Electronic and Optical Sensors (COE 2026). The poster presentation titled “Characterization of a CMOS Image Sensor as an Electron Detector for the Measurements of Electron Beam Transmission Through Si3N4 Membrane” results from an ongoing Bavarian-Czech-Polish collaboration between Prof. Schreiner at OTH Regensburg, Prof. Michal Krystztof at WUST and Prof. Alexandr Knapek at ISI in Brno. Besides these three researchers, the paper was additionally co-authored by Michal Zychla (WUST) and Matthias Hausladen and Matthias Bartl (OTH). “The award is a welcome recognition of our work in the project and an additional motivation to continue the research,” says Kamil Baranowski.
COE 2026 was held jointly with the 47th IMAPS Poland Conference from 20 to 23 September 2026 in Bukowina Tatrzańska located in the heart of the Tatra Mountains in Poland. It brought together researchers, engineers, and industry experts working in microelectronics, photonics, packaging technologies, and sensor systems. The COE conference serves as an international forum for presenting recent advances in optical and electronic sensors, MEMS and NEMS devices, microsystems, and emerging sensing technologies.
