Postdoctoral researcher
Project
PREP0004210
Overview
This PREP position focuses on developing traceable on-wafer standards for 5G, 6G, and beyond.
The position requires finite element simulations, programming, network analysis, dimensional
metrology, web-based programming, and other skills. The position will use on-wafer methods to
develop standards for mmWave industry to validate the authenticity of integrated circuits.
On-Wafer Standards (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. - 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.
