Ph.D-position at Department of electronics and telecommunications within the area Micro machining – IME-063-2007.
At The Department of electronics and telecommunications (http://www.iet.ntnu.no/), The Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Trondheim, Norway, there is an open position for a PhD-student in micromachining. The position will be linked to the group on Materials and component technology and is funded by The Research Council of Norway (NFR) in a project entitled “Integration of electronics and mechanics in next generation ultrasound transducers in medical imaging”.
The project will focus on technology that will allow mounting of a special type of array transducers, CMUT transducers, for 3 D imaging at high frequencies, 30 MHz or higher. CMUTs are Capacitive Micromachined Ultrasound Transducers. The project will be run in close cooperation with the project SMIDA, see http://www.iet.ntnu.no/projects/smida/index.htm, where a group of PhD-students work on CMUT transducers for medical imaging, and adjoining electronics for three dimensional ultrasound imaging in the same frequency range.
Both will cooperate closely with and use MiNaLab, the silicon research foundry facility in Norway. We seek a highly motivated student with a masters degree in physics, electronics material sciences, or other relevant areas, which qualifies for enrollment as a PhD-student at NTNU.
Information on such studies may be found on http://www.ivt.ntnu.no/studier/doktorgrad/english/
It is required that applicants must qualify for admission to the PhD program at Department ofElectronics and Telecommunications. It is a prerequisite for the position that the candidateapplies for and is allowed access to a PhD program as soon as possible after the appointment.
