Our May 2011 vacancy for a PhD is now closed; we are pleased to make public here our team has been strengthened by an enthousiastic new member.

(May, 2011 ) Vacancy for PhD candidate (CLOSED)

We currently have a vacancy for a PhD candidate. Field of research will be advanced physics-based bipolar device modeling and contribution to the continuous development of the Mextram model.

Focus will be on state-of-the art industrial bipolar transistor technologies for upcoming mm-wave applications. In this project we shall closely cooperate with NXP-Research (Eindhoven, The Netherlands).

Candidates must have an MSc degree in physics, mathematics or electrical engineering and apparent affinity with semiconductor device physics. Good communication skills in English are essential.

Interested? Please mail to: R.vanderToorn@tudelft.nl
