TCAD Engineer
- Working area: R&D
- Facility: Landshut (Germany)
- Job time: Full Time
The TCAD
Engineer applies advanced process and device modeling tools during process and
device development aimed to feasibility studies and optimization or scaling, as
applicable. He/She works closely with Process Integration engineers to design
experiments based on modeling and/or existing experimental results. He/She interacts
with a variety of teams including process integration, characterization,
circuit design, reliability and product engineers to analyze and debug device
and circuit-related issues during process development
The incumbent carries out the
following activities usually:
|
TCAD simulation
·
Coding the process flow in the simulator tool (Synopsys
Sentaurus);
·
Coding the electrical test conditions in the simulator tool;
·
Optimization of simulation speed selecting the best trade-off
between accuracy and computational time;
·
Propose DOE based on simulations to optimize the electrical
performance of the device;
·
Analysis of electrical data from the experiments and comparison
with simulation results;
|
|
Electrical
test optimization for TCAD fine tuning
·
Setup specific test conditions on PCM structures for optimizing
the comparison between simulated and experimental device performance;
·
Defining collection of electrical data on other characterization
tool such as mercury probe;
·
Suggesting electrical tests on product to verify the device characteristics
predicted by TCAD simulation;
·
Proposing new PCM and new test methodologies for optimizing the
detection of device performance based on TCAD simulation;
|
|
Calibration
of TCAD models based on experimental data
·
Optimization of process flow models based on the comparison with
physical analysis (C-V, SRP, SIMS, TEM);
