Internship in Acoustic Wave Modeling for Subsurface Warpage

Imec; Vlaams-Brabant; On-site; EUR 12,000 - 19,000; Full time

Benefits offered by this job

Imec allowance

Job summary

Imec in Belgium is offering a Master or PhD internship focused on physics‑based acoustic wave modeling and subsurface warpage reconstruction for advanced semiconductor packages. The project aims to extend one‑dimensional forward simulations to multi‑dimensional models and to develop edge‑correction techniques for robust ToF warpage mapping.

You will collaborate with KU Leuven promoter Houman Zahedmanesh and supervising scientist Jeffrey Gutierrez ([e-mail]).

Qualifications

• Strong mathematical foundation in wave propagation, acoustics, or physical optics.
• Proficient in Python (NumPy, SciPy, Matplotlib); experience with vector acoustics or finite‑difference time‑domain (FDTD) simulation is an asset.
• Interest in hands‑on cleanroom/lab metrology (SAM, surface profilometry).
