Wageningen, (Gelderland), 38 hours per week
Job description
The patterning of silicon surfaces on a nanometer-scale with the aim to obtain biofunctionalized wafers is of great interest with regard to the development of novel biosensors and electronic circuits. The aim of the project is to achieve this in two ways: a) using laser beam lithography patterns will be made using high-end wafer-steppers from ASML. b) using a combination of mild, visible light-induced attachment developed in our laboratory, and contact printing. For part a) a close collaboration with ASML, the world's leading provider of lithography systems for the semiconductor industry (www.asml.com), is planned.
The project is part of a cluster of projects funded by MicroNed (www.microned.nl), and involves a variety of contacts between different academic and industrial partners.
