Enschede, Overijssel, Nederland University of Twente Voltijd

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD candidate to contribute to our research team's efforts in laser-based manufacturing techniques for integrated electronic and photonic circuits. As part of the 'Groeifonds NXTGEN HIGHTECH' project, you will work closely with our interdisciplinary team to develop novel methods for laser-assisted soldering of circuit elements.

Laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) is an innovative Additive Manufacturing process that allows for the transfer of small volumes of material to a substrate via a laser beam. In this role, you will investigate ways to improve the precision and properties of the transferred materials, contributing to groundbreaking developments in next-generation high-tech equipment.

You will collaborate with researchers at the University of Twente and industrial partners within the consortium, leveraging our renowned research facilities to drive innovation. Your strong background in laser-material processing, material science, photonics, or engineering will be essential in advancing our understanding of ultra-short pulsed laser-material processing.

Your responsibilities will include developing a setup to enable laser-assisted transfer, analyzing printed materials, and collaborating with colleagues to accelerate your professional and personal growth. You will also have access to training programs through the Twente Graduate School, ensuring a suitable education and supervision plan.

To be successful in this position, you should have a Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Applied Physics, Photonics, Electrical or Materials Engineering, or a closely related field. Experience in surface characterisation technologies such as SEM, EDX, AFM, etc., would be advantageous. Excellent analysis skills, analytical mindset, and communication skills, including written English language proficiency, are required.

We offer a four-year full-time PhD position, starting salary of €2,770 gross per month increasing to €3,539 gross per month in the fourth year, annual holiday allowance of 8% of the gross annual salary, and an annual year-end bonus of 8.3%. The University of Twente provides a stimulating research environment, excellent mentorship, and access to world-class research facilities. If you are driven by curiosity, creativity, and dedication, we invite you to apply for this exciting opportunity.
