1. Fully Funded PhD Programs in Ultrafast photoacoustics for semiconductor metrology
Summary of PhD Project
In this project you will work towards improving the signal-to-noise ratio in photoacoustics by using hitherto underexplored techniques, aimed at both increasing signal strength and decreasing noise. This can for example be done by optimizing the optical wavelengths used for the generation and detection of the strain waves and by using optical transitions to enhance detection sensitivity.

2. Fully Funded PhD Programs in Tribochemical wear with relevance to nanolithography
Summary of PhD Project
While enormous progress has been made in fundamentally understanding wear, it remains striking that the most widely applied wear law (Archard’s law) is empirical and includes a proportionality constant that lacks a clear physical meaning but can vary over many orders of magnitude. Increasing evidence suggests that stiff and wear resistant materials, i.e. ceramics or diamond, undergo tribochemical, atomistic wear in which passivating species in the environment may play a crucial role.

3. Fully Funded PhD Programs in Machine learning for semiconductor wafer metrology
Summary of PhD Project
In this project, you will develop a novel Machine Learning approach that integrates physical simulations of the measurement process with its inverse reconstruction. The resulting joint model will be capable of simulating measurements from given physical parameters and inferring those parameters from experimental data — all within a Bayesian inference setting.
