Undergraduate Researchers Needed For 2003/2004


National Science Foundation's Research Experiences for Undergraduates

Microelectronics/Opto-electronic Materials and Devices.

The goal is to improve micro-electronics and lightwave communications systems by the study of new semiconductor materials in improved devices used as building blocks. The method examines the growth of semiconductor materials, characterization of semiconductor materials, processing of electronic and optical devices, and testing of fabricated devices.

Help is encouraged from students wanting:

  1. to expand the ECE's semiconductor processing and characterization facilities by building or modifying existing equipment,
  2. to model materials or devices using sophisticated software packages, and
  3. to directly interact with graduate students on current research topics.
Knowledge of chemistry, computers, math, physics, optics and semiconductor materials (ECE 331) and devices (ECE 432) is helpful, but positions available at all levels.

Student may volunteer, work for hourly wage or be under the work study program.

Only students studying at American universities should apply for this undergraduate opportunity.
