Fraunhofer EMFT conducts cutting-edge applied research on sensors and actuators for people and the environment. The about 150 employees in the three locations in Munich, Oberpfaffenhofen and Regensburg possess impressive long-term experience and wide-ranging know-how in the fields of microelectronics and microsystem technology. The technology offering of the research institute ranges from semiconductor processes, MEMS technologies and 3D integration to foil electronics. These nano- and microtechnologies are the basis for the other competence areas at Fraunhofer EMFT: sensor solutions, safe and secure electronics, and micropumps. The interdisciplinary interaction of these competencies enables the development of truly novel solutions to meet the current challenges facing our society.
In our daily life, sensors play an increasing role. Nowadays, hydrogen sensors are required in clean and renewable technologies using hydrogen fuel as a key energy carrier of the future instead of fossil fuels. Unlimited efforts are dedicated by the scientific community to the development of H2 sensors based on various working principles. Work with us on inspiring solutions for the generations of tomorrow and set standards for the future. Become part of our team and write your Master Thesis with us!
What you will do
Within the Master Thesis in our department Silicon Technologies and Devices, the idea is to electrically characterize the hydrogen sensing of our innovative CMOS based gas sensor. Sensor devices have already been manufactured and electronic circuitry is available. Different parameters must be characterized while developing sensors such as: Sensitivity, Selectivity, Stability and response-recovery Speed of a H2 Sensor. The main challenge of this task is to develop an understanding of the performance of our innovative CMOS based H2 sensor.
Your tasks at a glance:
- Familiarisation with the topic and literature review
- Deposition of a hydrogen sensor material
- Electrical characterisation of the H2 sensor
- Investigation of the performance of the H2 sensor
- Documentation and presentation of the results obtained
What you bring to the table
- Enrollment in a Master program in the field of Electrical Engineering, Physics, Material science of Physics or Materials Science
- Scientific working techniques and high motivation to familiarise yourself with new topics
- An analytical and structured approach and the ability to work independently in an international team
What you can expect
- A challenging and demanding thesis with responsibility, practical relevance and creative freedom
- Insights into both worlds - applied research: a hybrid of science and business!
- Professional and personal development through state-of-the-art R&D work
- Integration into the research community through scientific and administrative support
- Flexible working hours to suit your studies
- Good transport connections and a central location in the heart of Munich
