Offer Description
The research project is positioned at the intersection of innovation in Materials Engineering and Semiconductors, with a central objective: to achieve heteroepitaxy, a process of epitaxial deposition of a crystalline material on a different substrate. This technique, long sought-after in the field of semiconductors, promises significant advantages, including substantial cost reductions through wafer-scale processing and monolithic integration of various materials.
As part of the Umicore Research Chair in Nano-Membranes for Semiconductors and Flexible Optoelectronics at the Université de Sherbrooke, the research topic aims to generate new knowledge in materials science and semiconductor engineering by exploring the PEELER process and developing defect-free engineering wafers. The anticipated results are expected to revolutionize the industry of shortwave infrared (SWIR) sensor devices with potential implications in various innovation domains: telecommunications, healthcare, and environmental monitoring.
Project Supervision and Location:
- Richard Arès, Professor - Department of Mechanical Engineering, Université de Sherbrooke, Quebec, CANADA.
- 3it-UDS Laboratories: Interdisciplinary Institute of Technological Innovation.
