Postdoctoral researcher
Project
PREP0004207
Overview
This PREP position focuses on developing traceable standards for 5G, 6G, and beyond. The
position requires finite element simulations, programming, network analysis, dimensional
metrology, and other skills. The position will use on-wafer and resonator methods to develop
standards for mmWave industry to validate the authenticity of integrated circuits and materials.
Work Location is Physically at NIST (Boulder, CO).
On-wafer Complex Permittivity Measurements of Materials (CHIPS Funded Project)
Qualifications
- A PhD degree in Materials Science Engineering, or a related field.
- 2 years of relevant experience with microelectronic fabrication.
- Familiarity with programming in MATLAB and Python.
- Experience with finite element simulations in ANSYS or COMSOL.
- Strong oral and written communication skills.
- U.S. Citizen Preferred
Research Proposal
Key responsibilities will include but are not limited to:
- The PREP student will coordinate all stakeholder engagement to understand industries need and
coordinate regular updates to solicit feedback. - The PREP student will design, simulate, and assemble on-wafer electronics for mmWave test
and measurement. - The PREP student will design, simulate, and assemble resonator methods for mmWave test and
measurement. - With the measurement systems integrated, the PREP student will perform all measurements
and analysis on the data. - In coordination with NIST researcher, the PREP student will develop and carry out on-wafer
metrology.
