Title: Marlen Frohlich: Innovator in Microelectronics
Introduction
Marlen Frohlich is a prominent inventor based in Magdeburg, Germany. She has made significant contributions to the field of microelectronics, particularly through her innovative work on micro-electromechanical devices.
Latest Patents
Marlen holds a patent for a MEMS-microviscometer, which is a micro-electromechanical device designed for measuring the viscosity of fluids. This device features a measuring chamber with a micromechanical actuator that is arranged as a cantilever above a metallically conductive counter electrode. The actuator is elastically deformable towards the counter electrode and is surrounded by the fluid to be measured. The device includes a two-terminal RF voltage source that can be switched off, with one output terminal connected to the actuator and the other to the counter electrode. It is designed to output an RF voltage signal suitable for deflecting the actuator from its rest position. Additionally, a measuring device detects changes in the frequency, amplitude, or phase of the RF signal to determine the viscosity-dependent speed at which the actuator deforms.
