Master Thesis - Developing printing processes on an electrohydrodynamic (EHD) printer for advanced heterogeneous structures (f/m/d)

The topic of the master thesis is focused on experimental work on Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) printer. The EHD printer in question is a beyond state-of-the-art laboratory prototype and offers the possibility to be a part of the ground - breaking research activities. The objective of the thesis is to develop and establish printing process for different types of inks (conductive, semiconductive, dielectric) and to conduct a comprehensive DOE study with the goal to test EHD printer performance for the minimal resolutions, ink printability, printing speed etc.

Tasks

• Study influence of ink properties on the printer performance.
• Study influence of process parameters on the printer performance.
• Perform electrical, mechanical and optical measurements.
• Evaluate and compare the measurement results.
• Documentation and reporting.
• Support in publication writing.

Requirements

• Master student in microelectronics, microsystem technology, semiconductor technologies, material science, physics or similar fields.
• Experience in cleanroom would be beneficial.
• Experience with printing techniques (e.g. inkjet, EHD printing, spraying, jetting etc.) is desirable.
• Motivated and autonomous personality, well organized and enjoys working in a dynamic and multi-cultural environment.
• Good analytical and data processing skills.
• Good oral and written communication skills in English.

Benefits

• Start of Employment: Immediately.
• This position is endowed with a gross annual salary of 1.593.- / month, based on the collective agreement for research ( Forschungs-Kollektivvertrag ).
• Home Office possible
• 4.- /day food allowance in restaurants / 2.- /day in supermarkets
