Master's Thesis: Chip-Level Aluminium Electroplating from Ionic Liquids

The Fraunhofer Institute for Electronic Nanosystems ENAS specializes in the development of smart systems – so-called intelligent systems for a wide range of applications. These systems combine electronic components, micro- and nanosensors, and actuators with communication interfaces. Fraunhofer ENAS develops individual components, the technologies for their manufacture, as well as system concepts and system integration technologies, and translates them into practical applications. Fraunhofer ENAS supports customer projects from the initial idea through design, technology development, or implementation using existing technologies, all the way to a tested prototype. We are offering the opportunity for a six-month Master’s Thesis on aluminum electroplating using ionic liquids (ILs), combined with a paid position as a student assistant. A particular focus of this project is on chip-level electrochemical deposition.
