CMOS Si-photonics Reliability Engineer H/F

Job description: Join us, Why? Silicon photonics technologies have recently emerged worldwide to ensure high-speed, reliable and massive data transfer notably in the frame of the AI development that requires large data centers and big data analysis, as well as for Quantum computing or optical sensors. Photonics Integrated circuits (PIC) are envisaged as a CMOS compatible solution to embed on-chip data transfer between electronic calculation poles.  Like CMOS transistors, PIC circuits are subject to scaling law, 3D integration and co-packaging. These levers also increase the need for reliable devices and components, optically and electrically. In the frame of an industrial partnership, we are looking for a reliability engineer dedicated to measure, understand and optimize the electrical and optical degradation of PIC devices such as photo-diodes and photo-modulators on 300mm Si-based wafers. What for? You will work with William and Krunoslav in the frame of an industrial partnership on the evaluation of the reliability of HSPM (High Speed Phase Modulator) and HSPD (High Speed PhotoDiode). Your daily work will include: Building Reliability setup under light (O/C Band laser sources) and under dark conditions for both devices to characterize degradation under aging conditions. Building an electro-optical 110 GHz characterization solution to access RF performance of the devices and understand the degradation of these FOMs Determine empirical and physical based degradation models from experimental data (dark/light conditions) Performing TCAD simulations to help understanding the aging physics of the devices Extract lifetime of devices under operating conditions Report/present the results with industrial partners during technical meetings Ensure a proper data/methods sustainability

Institute description: You will join a world-wide recognized international team dedicated to electrical characterization and reliability of microelectronic devices (CMOS, Power, Memory). Our lab is involved in institutional and industrial projects concerning the leading-edge technologies developed by the CEA-Leti. Our team develops software-based instrumentation to use state of the art methodologies and beyond concerning electrical characterization and reliability tests. Moreover, we focus on understanding the devices physics using also support of TCAD simulation team to ensure a fast and accurate feedback to device developments labs and cleanroom. In the frame of an industrial partnership, we are looking for a reliability engineer dedicated to measure, understand and optimize the electrical and optical degradation of PIC devices such as photo-diodes and photo-modulators on 300mm Si-based wafers.

Your profile: Vous êtes titulaire d’un bac+5 ou équivalent avec une première expérience significative - ou un doctorat - dans le domaine de la physique des semiconducteurs. La programmation en Python est un prérequis indispensable (instrumentation et analyse de données) ainsi que la connaissance des tests de wafers sous pointes. Vous appréciez le travail expérimental. Des compétences concernant les mesures optiques et/ou RF sont un plus, au même titre qu’une expérience en simulation TCAD. Vous êtes reconnu(e) pour votre proactivité, vos capacités de synthèse et de présentation orale. Vous êtes motivé(e) pour travailler en équipe, en combinant vos énergies pour atteindre un objectif commun. Vous avez encore un doute ? nous vous proposons : Un écosystème de recherche à la pointe, unique en son genre et dédié à des thématiques à fort enjeu sociétal, Des formations pour renforcer vos compétences ou en acquérir de nouvelles, Un équilibre vie privée – vie professionnelle reconnu, Un poste au coeur de la métropole grenobloise, facilement accessible via la mobilité douce favorisée par le CEA,  Une rémunération selon vos diplômes et votre expérience, Un CSE actif en termes de loisirs et d’activités extra-professionnelles, Une politique diversité et inclusion. Conformément aux engagements pris par le CEA en faveur de l'intégration des personnes en situation de handicap, cet emploi est ouvert à toutes et à tous. Le CEA propose des aménagements et/ou des possibilités d'organisation, rejoignez-nous!
