For the first time, world-class security IP for silicon Root of Trust is now available for academic research – thanks to a new collaboration between IHP – Leibniz Institute for High Performance Microelectronics, eMemory and its subsidiary PUFsecurity.

Researchers at Forschungszentrum Jülich and the Leibniz Institute for Innovative Microelectronics (IHP) have developed a material that has never existed before: a stable alloy of carbon, silicon, germanium, and tin. The new compound, abbreviated as CSiGeSn, opens up exciting possibilities for applications at the interface of electronics, photonics, and quantum technology.

From 2 to 4 July 2025, the fifth Free Silicon Conference (FSiC) took place at IHP – Leibniz Institute for High Performance Microelectronics in Frankfurt (Oder), one of the most important events in Europe dedicated to open design tools and the free ecosystem for creating integrated circuits, also known as open-source silicon.
