But we’re more than just a tech company. We value diversity, inclusion and sustainability as we strive to make a positive impact on the world. Our development programs help support your growth, shaping your future and pushing the boundaries of innovation to unleash potential.
Job's mission
The intern will analyze leakage mechanisms in flowable low-k SiOCH films using I–V measurements and structural analysis (FTIR/XPS). The project focuses on correlating material structure with leakage behavior, using only generalized or literature-based conditions to ensure compliance with ASM’s IP protection policy.
The intern will work with dummy samples simulating typical low-k films (SiOCH-based). They will perform I–V/C-V testing to identify leakage models (e.g., Poole-Frenkel, tunneling) and use FTIR/XPS to evaluate bonding states and composition. The experimental design would use a two-factor DOE (e.g., temperature × cure time). Data analysis will focus on model fitting and correlation between structural and electrical properties. All deliverables will be reviewed and masked to avoid IP-sensitive content.
What we are looking for
- A student with a background in Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, Applied Physics, or a related field. Experience with electrical measurements or materials characterization is preferred. Master’s or PhD’s level students are eligible.
Top 3 Skillsets:
- Electrical measurement (I–V testing)
- Materials analysis (FTIR, XPS)
- Data analysis and problem-solving
Apply today to be part of what’s next.
We make the tech that enables the chips in devices which improve lives around the world. We do this with an eye to the future, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible through cutting-edge innovation, and driving the next wave of technological breakthroughs that shape how we live, work, and connect.
