Phd Thesis: Probing Crystalline Defects for
vor 1 Tag
The PhD will be part of two local teams of the HORIZON project AddMorePower (Advanced modeling and characterization for power semiconductor materials and technologies). AddMorePower aims to advance X-ray
- and electron-probe related characterization techniques for the power semiconductor industry and to refine modelling and data-management methods to enhance and efficiently use characterization data. The project brings together renowned research institutes with many years of experience in electron
- and X-ray characterization, emerging new research groups and company start-ups and researchers with a track record in multi-physics materials modelling as well as data engineering.
Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) can generally be used to characterize microstructural defects in crystalline materials. Electron Channeling Contrast Imaging (ECCI) allows the direct observation of crystal defects, such as dislocations in the sub-surface ( 100 nm deep) of bulk materials. This emerging technique has the potential to identify contrast changes at the surface using specific crystallographic orientation rules and use them to characterize defects in a non-destructive way. However, it is not yet explored for power electronics materials. Electrical properties can be probed as well in the SEM, using techniques like Electron Beam Induced Current (EBIC) and voltage contrast imaging. The goal of this thesis is to combine electrical and physical information retrieved in the SEM, eventually permitting non-destructive characterization of crystal defects for the semiconductor industry.
In your new role you will:
- Learn to understand the problem through the **exchange with experts **as well as **literature research**:
- **Simulate ECCI contrast **depending on the crystal orientation and correlate it with experimental data**:
- **Use EBIC to **measure **the **electrical behavior of defects **and associate it with defect type**:
- **Publish the produced results and prepare a **PhD thesis**
You are best equipped for this task if you have:
- A **hands-on personality**:
- Previous knowledge of **scanning electron microscopy**:
- **Experience with **data processing for modeling or simulation **(e.g. Python, MATLAB)**:
- **Good **English **skills (German or French skills are a bonus)**
- gross p.m. (full-time basis for students) is provided.**
More than 5.000 people work at five different sites in Austria.
