[Germany] PhD Candidates and Postdocs in Microelectronics, The University of Freiburg

The Department of Microsystems Engineering (IMTEK) at the University of Freiburg is unique in Europe. The scientific scope of the institute, with 18 faculty members and over 300 research and technical staff, encompasses nearly all technical fields relevant to the highly interdisciplinary world of microsystem technology. Through the depth and range of our activities, we are one of the internationally leading academic research departments in this dynamic and innovative field.

The Chair of Microelectronics at IMTEK, University of Freiburg offers positions of PhD Candidates and Postdocs in Microelectronics or Microsystems Technology

The positions are limited in time for 3-5 years with the possibility of an extension.

Our research focus lies in the design and development of low power, analog and digital CMOS circuits for applications in medical engineering, sensor- and communication tech-niques. Energy autonomous systems, A/D-converters, sensor readout and implantable interface electronics for biomedical applications are the main research areas. Current PhD topics are exemplarily found in but not limited to: high speed Sigma-Delta A/D converters, energy scavenging systems, neural stimulators, closed loop gyro readout, and more. Post-docs may be responsible for one of our research areas.

The chair is equipped with a variety of high-end, commercial IC development tools, a modern computer-infrastructure and a laboratory with measurement equipment for the analog and digital circuit design. We offer an interesting, independent and varied working assignment in a young, motivated team and you will have the chance to realise new ideas and to work in cooperation with leading european and american project partners.

We expect motivation in scientific work and willingness to cope with demanding challenges. Participation in teaching and in industrial projects may be part of your work. Good knowledge and interest in microelectronics and circuit design and being fluent in spoken and written english are desired.

The University of Freiburg aspires to increase the quota of women and so we call for quali-fied women to apply.
