**Job title**:

- Colored X-ray spectroscopy dedicated to ultrathin inorganic materials H/F

**Subject**:

- For this internship/master thesis we are looking for a student who will dive into the world of X-ray nanocharacterization of ultrathin innovative materials investigated for advanced CMOS, photonics and energy.

**Contract duration (months)**:

- 6 nonths

**Job description**:

- The characterization of nanometric layers developed for advanced CMOS devices (gate-metal stack) and other innovative materials (transition metal dichalcogenides) is based in particular on state-of-the-art X-ray spectroscopy equipments (fluorescence, photoemission). Such tools combine multi-energy excitation and angle-resolved analysis to optimize sensitivity to ultrathin materials.- The objective of the internship is the development of quantitative analysis protocols by multi-energy angular analysis. The work required:
- will be carried out in a multidisciplinary international context (interaction with the characterization and process teams, collaboration with a Japanese equipment manufacturer)
- will be balanced between experience (50%) and simulation (50%)
- This 6-month internship will mainly focus on fluorescence analysis. It may be followed by a PhD contract which will extend the field of interest to the combination multi-energy and angle-resolved X-ray photoemission and fluorescence analyses.References:
