About this role

Your tasks

  • During your thesis, you will perform optical and FEM simulations to calculate the transmission of light through silicon wafers.
  • Based on the simulation results you will develop an optical wafer inspection strategy.
  • You will compare the simulation results with measurements on laser-treated wafers and identify relevant correlations.
  • Furthermore, you will collaborate on the setup of a new imaging stage for micrometer-level stress measurement in depth and on the surface.
  • The experimental correlation with other stress measurement strategies to characterize the optical measurement device also falls within your area of responsibility.

Your profile

  • Education: studies in the field of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) or comparable
  • Experience and Knowledge: of numerical simulation in optics; experience with commercial numerical simulation software such as ABAQUS, ZEMAX, and COMSOL; knowledge of Python; practical laboratory experience is a plus
  • Personality and Working Practice: you excel at tackling challenges with a solution-oriented mindset, working independently and with a high degree of motivation
  • Work Routine: your on-site presence is required (office and lab work)
  • Languages: fluent in English
