Project description
Enabler for smaller, more powerful, and more energy-efficient microchips Working for tomorrow today. Around 80 percent of all microchips worldwide are produced using ZEISS technologies. As the centerpiece of every electronically controlled system, they have become an integral part of our everyday lives – whether in smartphones, smart homes or smart factories. ZEISS is a technology leader in the field of semiconductor manufacturing equipment. With high-precision lithography optics, photomask systems and process control solutions, ZEISS enables the production of ever smaller, increasingly powerful, and more energy-efficient microchips, and thus plays a pivotal role in the age of micro- and nanoelectronics. Your RoleWith us, you have the opportunity to perfectly combine your studies with practical experience while actively contributing to exciting projects. This allows you to gain valuable skills, expand your network, and grow both professionally and personally. As part of this Master’s thesis, you will work on the analysis of masking effects of liquids on leaks at sealing interfaces. Your main responsibilities will include:Designing test components for different types of sealing interfacesPlanning and conducting an experimental study on masking effects of liquids on leaks under various conditions (e.g. leak detection method, type of liquid, etc.)Analyzing the results and developing strategies to reduce or avoid masking effects in leak testingYour ProfileEnrolled in a Master’s program in physics, mechanical engineering, aerospace engineering, or a related fieldInitial experience working with vacuum systems and ideally basic knowledge of fluid mechanicsStrong interest in the interaction of components in precision mechanical systemsStrong ability to understand complex technical components and systems, combined with curiosity and a quick grasp of new topicsCommunicative and well-organized personality, able to work independently and effectively at interdisciplinary interfaces, both within the company and with external partners Sounds exciting? Then become part of #teamZEISS and help us shape the future! Please provide your complete application documents (CV, transcript of records, etc.).
