Sven Hermann

Senior Research Associate

Overview

My passion sits in Astrophysics, where my career is covering a wide range of wavelength, from low frequency radio over optical ground based to X-ray and Gamma ray space based observatories. I am an electronics engineer with more than 20 years of experience in the design of detector readout electronics. My engineering approach leverages multi-disciplinary teams, often utilizing novel technologies to carve out an instrumentation edge that translates to tangible scientific enhancements. 

Research Focus:

- Microelectronics for space applications 
- Radiation hard electronics
- Scientific instrumentation for photon and particle detection 
- Imaging systems in the UV/VIS/IR and X-rays
- low frequency radio spectrometers
- Software defined instrumentation leveraging programmable hardware and embedded systems
- Quantum sensing
