Project Goals: The primary objective is to characterize the material crystallography and local strain within devices and interconnects to enable direct correlation between materials structure and chemistry and device characteristics.The student will deploy modern 4D STEM methods for characterizing strain.
Job Responsibility:
Method Development: Developing next-generation 4D-STEM workflows, including multi-slice electron ptychography, and integrating them with smart scanning strategies
Advanced Characterization: Use STEM - PED techniques for local strain in devices and crystallography of interconnects and compare with existing methods
Correlative Microscopy: Correlate TEM structural data with spectroscopic measurements (electron energy loss spectroscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy), quantitative chemical measurements (atom probe tomography) and electrical data
Data analysis: Develop advanced data-processing methods and interpret complex datasets influenced by multiple interacting physical phenomena
Requirements:
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Materials Science, Physics, Electrical Engineering, or a related discipline
Strong analytical skills and creative problem solving, particularly in designing experiments, developing advanced data-processing methods, and interpreting complex datasets influenced by multiple interacting physical phenomena
Background in crystallography and diffraction physics, hands-on experience with TEM/STEM, or experience with Python or MATLAB is highly desirable
