Laser-Based, Photon, and Thermal Emission Microscopy Analysis of GaN Power Devices

Master projects/internships - Leuven | More than two weeks ago

Semiconductor failure analysis: from evidence to root cause

Apply

The electrification of the automotive and energy sectors is driving rapid innovation in power devices, with wide-bandgap semiconductors, such as gallium nitride, leading the way. Thanks to these materials, electrical switches and converters can operate at higher switching frequencies and temperatures, greatly enhancing efficiency.  However, despite their remarkable performance benefits, WBG power devices also pose several fabrication and reliability challenges. This project will explore the application of laser-based, photon, and thermal emission microscopy analysis techniques for failure analysis.
 

Type of Project: Combination of internship and thesis 

Master's degree: Master of Science 

Supervisor: Claudia Fleischmann 

For more information or application, please contact the supervising scientists Kristof J.P. Jacobs (kristof.j.p.jacobs@imec.be) and Izabela Kuzma Filipek (izabela.kuzmafilipek@imec.be).
