Our development programs help support your growth, shaping your future and pushing the boundaries of innovation to unleash potential.
Job's mission
The intern will support the planning and execution of Design of Experiments (DOEs) aimed at improving the material properties of key PECVD films.
What you will be working on
The intern will run baseline deposition recipes and assist senior process engineers in optimizing PECVD processes to enhance film quality, and productivity like defectivity, and film non uniformity.
The role involves hands on work in the cleanroom using state of the art deposition equipment and characterization tools. The intern will develop DOE plans and execute experiments under the supervision of ASM process engineers. Experimental results will be analyzed using in house metrology and characterization tools such as VASE ellipsometry, SP5, EDX, Hg probe, FTIR, AFM, XRR, and nano indentation.
What we are looking for
An ideal candidate will have a background in materials science and/or plasma physics with experience or coursework in thin film deposition techniques. It is preference of clean room working experience and vacuum chamber handling experience. Due to the technical depth of the project, candidates pursuing or holding a Master’s or PhD degree are preferred.
Apply today to be part of what’s next.
We make the tech that enables the chips in devices which improve lives around the world. We do this with an eye to the future, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible through cutting-edge innovation, and driving the next wave of technological breakthroughs that shape how we live, work, and connect.
