Postdoc in Corrosion of Power Electronics Systems – DTU Construct

Kgs. Lyngby, Denmark

The Department of Civil and Mechanical Engineering at the Technical University of Denmark is seeking a candidate to join our team of PhDs and Postdocs. Our project focuses on corrosion of electronic components and systems caused by exposure to humidity and other corrosive gaseous conditions.

Responsibilities and qualifications
User environments, such as humidity and gases, influence the performance of electronic devices due to corrosion-related failure mechanisms. These mechanisms depend on operating parameters like voltage and power, for example, on PCBA. Increasing voltage/power to get better functional performance of power electronic systems today increasing the possibility of corrosion failure modes, while mechanisms are getting modified due to several synergistic effects. One key failure mode is electrochemical migration generating short circuits. However, dendrite morphology and chemistry is determined by the electrochemical process that occurs in thin electrolyte layer.

Salary and terms of employment
The appointment will be based on the collective agreement with the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations. The allowance will be agreed upon with the relevant union.The period of employment is two years. The starting date will be according to mutual agreement. The position is a full-time position.You can read more about career paths at DTU here.Further information
