About the position

The Faculty of Technology, Natural Sciences and Maritime Sciences has a vacancy for 2 positions as PhD Reasearch Fellows in Electronic Packaging and Interconnection Technologies from 01.08.2019. Appointment is for a period of three years. The position do not include teaching duties.

The position is at the Department of Microsystems and reports to the Head of Department. The place of employment is Bakkenteigen, Campus Vestfold.

The PhD fellow positions are included in a project enabstractJV_titled "Advanced packaging for photonics, optics and electronics for low cost manufacturing in Europe" with short name APPLAUSE, funded by the EU Horizon 2020 Programme and The Research Council of Norway. In this project, USN participates in User Cases 2: Lowcost thermal imaging systems. The purpose of this thremal IR user case is to develop a low-cost and high-performance thermal infrared sensor, with focus on hermetic wafer level packaging. The target is a camera capable for producing video-rate imagery with VGA resolution, and with factor 100 lower cost than state-og-the-art. The main fields of application for the camera are in thermography (Quality Assurance or Control, HVAC&R), in transport (Automated Driver Assisance System in cars and in Unmanned Aerioal Aircraft Systems) and in other surveillance, security and saftey applications.USN's main task in this user case i mainly to develof wafer level packaging of the MEMS/CMOS sensitive device and packaging of the image sensor. USN will also contribute in other tasks in the project, for instance defining the requirements ofr the IR camera to be developed and to participatein characterization of developed prototypes.

Qualifications

Applicants to the PhD positions must have av Master's degree or equivalent higher education qualifications in Micro- and Nanotechnologies or related fields with specific preference for applicatnat with an education experience focused on Electronic Packaging and Interconnection Technologies, Micro-Opto-Electronic Mechanical Systems (MOEMS) or Microsensors. The applicant mus have gained the degree before starting the position.

Admission to the USN doctoral programme Applied Micro- and Nanosystems is a condition for appointment as a reaserch fellow.

Our education should be research-based, both in terms of teaching practice and content. We therefore want our teachers to have experience from, or have the motivation to focus on, the development of teaching practices and the interaction between education and research.
