Internship for electrical and physical characterization of integrated memory devices

Be part of change

• Electrical Characterization & Reliability Analysis: You perform electrical characterizations and reliability analyses on integrated memory devices and ferroelectric transistors, ensuring precise and reliable results.
• Data Evaluation & Process Optimization: You evaluate the obtained measurement data, identify optimization potential, and define improvements for processes.
• Development of Characterization Methods: You contribute to the further development and refinement of characterization methods to meet advanced requirements.
• Technology Development & Material Investigation: You participate in technology development, explore new materials and processes, and support innovation in the field.
• Test Structure Design & Characterization Coordination: You assist in the design of test structures and coordinate characterization requirements to ensure compatibility and efficiency.
• Reporting & Team Collaboration: You prepare professional reports of your results and actively discuss them within the development team to drive progress.

The tasks can be carried out as part of an internship or working student position, though it is also possible to pursue a Bachelor's, Master's, or Diploma thesis directly. Combining the thesis with an internship or working student activity is preferred.
