Research Associate (Circuit Design and Semiconductor Modeling) | wiss. Mitarbeiterin bzw. Mitarbeiter (m/w/d)
Technische Universität Dresden Arbeitsstätte Dresden
Job Summary
The Technical University of Dresden (TUD), a German University of Excellence, is seeking a Research Associate to join the Chair of Circuit Technology and Network Theory (PSN). This position supports the groundbreaking QUANTZ project, which aims to develop energy-efficient dual-channel tunnel transistors to revolutionize future microelectronics. The successful candidate will be responsible for implementing a physics-based fundamental model for these novel transistors. Key day-to-day tasks include developing and extending TCAD models, incorporating complex quantum mechanical effects, and transferring these into a compact model suitable for circuit design. Furthermore, the role involves the design and simulation of fundamental analog and digital circuits (e.g., inverters and differential amplifiers) using advanced Computer Aided Design (CAD) tools. Candidates must hold a very good or good university degree (Master's or PhD) in a relevant engineering or physics field, possess deep knowledge of circuit technology and semiconductor device operation, and demonstrate strong analytical skills and commitment. The role offers significant opportunities for further scientific qualification and interdisciplinary collaboration with leading research partners.
