Your future responsibilities This master thesis focuses on the characterization of defects in a Silicon Carbide Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor. For this purpose, an optical experiment shall be set up to measure fluorescence from SiC-chips after laser excitation at cryogenic temperatures in a closed cycle He-cryostat. The work will involve working in a class-4 laser laboratory to set up the experiment and, subsequently, perform the measurements, first at room temperature and then in the cryostat.

Your responsibilities will involve the following activities:

• Setting up of the experiment in the optical laboratory
• Working with fs-lasers and a He-cryostat
• Perform the experiments
• Data analysis and presentation of results

Your profile

• Master student (enrolled in EU-University) in Physics, Optics, Electrical Engineering or similar fields.
• Self-organized and target-oriented working style
• Experience with electronic laboratory equipment (e.g., oscilloscope)
• Knowledge about optical measurements, and semiconductors
• Experience in data processing and evaluation
• Good oral and written English skills
