As part of a third-party funded research project, an intermediate substrate layer is being developed in collaboration with an industry partner for processing within standard printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturing processes. This layer integrates high-frequency waveguides for signal transmission as well as miniaturized cooling channels for liquid cooling.

The tasks at TU Berlin focus in particular on integrating this novel intermediate layer into state-of-the-art PCB processes and their associated electronic cooling systems. Another key focus lies on the coupling interfaces, especially for the low-loss coupling and decoupling of high frequencies into and out of the waveguides and onward to subsequent microelectronic system components.

• Successfully completed university degree (Master, Diplom or equivalent) in Physics
• Experience in leading interdisciplinary funded projects and the associated reporting
• Knowledge and experience in the following areas:
  a) PCB embedding processes
  b) High-frequency systems from the GHz up to the THz range
  c) Microchannel cooling systems
• Good German and/or English language skills required; willingness to acquire the respective missing language skills
• Knowledge of Laser processing of metallic materials for use as high-frequency conductors in electronic systems desirable
• Knowledge of CAD and preparation of manufacturing orders desirable
• Structured and independent working style desirable
• Willingness to take responsibility for sub-tasks desirable
• Ability to work in a team and readiness to document work results desirable
