Thesis in Characterization of Microstructure Evolution Caused by Wire Bonding in SiC MOSFETs

Company Description

At Bosch, we shape the future by inventing high-quality technologies and services that spark enthusiasm and enrich people’s lives. Our promise to our associates is rock-solid: we grow together, we enjoy our work, and we inspire each other. Join in and feel the difference.

The Robert Bosch GmbH is looking forward to your application!

Job Description

• During your thesis, you will work on a project that addresses reliability issues related to assembly and interconnection technologies, helping us to understand the impact of manufacturing processes on predicting the lifetime of electronic components.
• As a part of our team, you will research and analyze relevant state-of-the-art approaches.
• In addition, you will prepare test samples, perform cross-sectional analysis and study microstructure evolution using scanning electron microscopy techniques to provide an experimental basis for your work.
• Furthermore, you will also investigate how mechanical quantities such as hardness or plastic deformation can be correlated analytically or phenomenologically with the microstructural evolution of Al-bonded wires.
• Last but not least, you will verify your theoretical results with nanoindentation tests.

Qualifications

• Education: studies in the field of Engineering, Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering or comparable
• Experience and Knowledge: fundamentals of materials science, especially in the field of metals; initial experience with laboratory work, measurement and analysis methods is desirable; knowledge of structural mechanics is an advantage
• Personality and Working Practice: innovative, enthusiastic, committed, reliable, communicative and team-oriented
• Languages: good German or English
