Missions
The Institut d' Electronique Microélectronique et Nanotechnologies (IEMN) is a joint research unit (UMR CNRS 8520).
The IEMN currently comprises 23 research groups and two technical platforms. The engineer will be assigned to the Optical and Photonic Microwave Characterisation (CHOP) of the labelled Multi-Physics Characterisation Platform (PCMP). The CHOP is a joint laboratory department whose mission is to meet the needs of the various research groups and to train PhD students in microwave, optical and photonic measurement techniques. CHOP consists of 4 engineers and a pool of instruments worth €7 million. The department has 5 areas of expertise: Millimetre-TeraHertz, DC-Low Frequency, Microwave, Nanocaracterisation and Power.
The design engineer will be responsible for the technical implementation of microwave/radio frequency measurements from DC to 110 GHz for the laboratory. He/she will carry out measurements of electronic components (transistors, diodes) with micrometric dimensions and of microelectronic systems. These measurements will mainly be carried out on a peak station for the characterisation of electronic components on wafer. Ultimately, he/she will be responsible for training users of the benches for which he/she will be responsible.
Main and associated activities :
- Carrying out microwave/radio frequency measurements on the CHOP centre's test benches
- Adapting and fine-tuning measurement benches to the experimental conditions required
- Draft the technical specifications, design and production documents and user manuals associated with these benches
- Implement and ensure compliance with safety rules relating to equipment (base stations, network analysers, spectrum analysers, oscilloscopes, etc.)
- Experimental assistance for doctoral students, teacher-researchers and researchers.
- Train and support users of the benches for which he/she is responsible
Profile required

- Notions/knowledge of electronics/microelectronics.
- General knowledge of electronic instrumentation: generators, oscilloscopes, spectrum analysers, impedance meters, vector network analysers (microwave and low-frequency).
- LabView-type programming language would be appreciated
Operational know-how
- Applying health and safety rules
- Know how to use office software (word processing, spreadsheets)
- English: understanding technical data sheets
Behavioural skills
- Knowing how to work in a team
- A sense of initiative
- Organisational skills
Desirable areas of training and experience
Physics, electronics, electricity
Minimum level of education required
LevelLevel 6 Bachelor's degree/equivalent qualifications
