Description

Do you want to contribute to a research field that enables technological solutions for sustainability? Then join the power electronics community, as our research is key to reducing energy consumption and sustaining the energy transition.
This internship offers a unique opportunity to expand your knowledge in GaN High-Electron-Mobility Transistors (HEMTs), which are leading devices for reducing data center energy consumption. This is a critical challenge today, especially with the explosion of AI applications hosted in these data centers where we continue to rely on relatively inefficient silicon devices.
You will work alongside a multidisciplinary team specializing in semiconductor material engineering, device simulation, and electrical characterization. Your topic will be the study of charge carriers dynamics in order to better assess the reliability of HEMT power devices. Specifically, on-resistance and threshold voltage drifts due to charge trapping mechanisms are crucial for understanding the transistors' operation. By analyzing their electrical behavior, with the guidance of our experts, your work will enable the team to optimize the device architecture and achieve even greater efficiency.
By contributing to the development of GaN HEMTs, you will gain comprehensive knowledge in process engineering, electrical characterization, and TCAD (Technology Computer-Aided Design) simulation. If you are passionate about driving innovation, broadening your expertise, and taking on cutting-edge challenges, this role will significantly enrich your career!
