Engineer in devices technology
General Information
|
The recruited engineer will join the " Microwave Power Devices " (PUISSANCE) group of the Institute of Electronics Microelectronics and Nanotechnology (IEMN). He/she will be recruited for a 12-months period starting January 1st, 2022 on a full-time basis. He/she must have a Master’s degree or an engineering diploma and have skills in the proposed research field. |
Environment and context of the work |
The IEMN is a Joint Research Unit associating the CNRS, the University of Lille, the Polytechnic University Hauts-de-France, Centrale Lille and the ISEN JUNIA. Its equipment for the design, fabrication and characterization of devices is at the highest European level. The institute employs 230 permanent staff (professors, researchers, engineers and administrative staff) and about 150 PhD students. The main activities of the IEMN are focused on micro and nanotechnologies for health, transport, communication and information applications.
For the proposed position, the candidate will integrate the group « PUISSANCE » of IEMN which is specialized in fabrication, characterization and modeling of devices dedicated to microwave power applications. The proposed activity is essentially oriented towards a work in clean-room at IEMN:
- The IEMN clean-room has an area of 1600m2, with all the required equipment for the fabrication of electronic devices (mask alignment machines for optical lithography, laser lithography, electronic lithography, deposition equipment (evaporation or sputtering metallization), annealing, ion implanter, scanning electron microscope, atomic force microscopes, electrical test benches, wet etching, RIE or ICP etching, component assembly...)
- The candidate will have specific training in safety related to clean-room work.
|
Missions and proposed activities |
- The candidate will be introduced to specific technological techniques to use the various resources available.
- The engineer's mission will consist of the fabrication of devices dedicated to microwave power applications. The candidate will have to work on the different steps constituting the process flow to fabricate devices. He (she) could be brought to optimize the existing processes and to develop new technological building blocks (optimization and development).
- The candidate will have to use all the equipment available in clean-room. He (she) will also have to carry out some simple electrical characterizations of the devices (resistances, transistors, hall measurements) in order to evaluate the quality of the technological processes.
|
Expected skills and knowledge |
The candidate must have a master degree or an engineering diploma with knowledge of devices dedicated to microwave power applications. He (she) must have knowledge of the work in clean-room.
The expected skills and knowledge are:
The skills and knowledge expected are
- Knowledge of technological processes in cleanroom
- Willing to develop new skills in technological processes within a fast-changing technical environment
- Knowledge of etching techniques (RIE, ICP, etc.) would be appreciated.
- Knowledge of semiconductor physics and applications
- Basic knowledge of characterisation (in-line characterisation): measurement of resistors, transistors, etc.
- Autonomy and thoroughness in carrying out tasks
- Ability to adapt and work as part of a team
- Good organisational and communication skills
