BE GREAT TOGETHER WITH US.
Innovation, Efficiency and Ambition: this is what VAT has stood for over 50 years.
With this passion, VAT has grown to become the leading international developer, manufacturer and supplier of high-performance high-end vacuum valves and vacuum sealing technology, employing over 2000 people worldwide. The headquarters are located in Haag (Switzerland), the production centers in Switzerland, Malaysia, Romania and Taiwan.
Internship Objectives
Fueled by the ever-growing demand for computational power, the leading-edge technology nodes (≤7nm) require process control at the atomic scale. At VAT, we are developing the next generation of advanced sensing solutions for the semiconductor industry. Semiconductor manufacturing processes often utilize corrosive gases and plasma environments that pose a risk for VAT’s sensors and products. We are seeking a dedicated and enthusiastic intern to join our team and focus on advancing the corrosion protection strategies for our MEMS pressure sensor.
Description of main activities
- Support the development of protective measures to enhance sensor durability under extreme manufacturing conditions.
- Assist in the design, implementation, and testing of corrosion protection strategies for sensors.
- Conduct failure analysis and material testing to identify failure mechanisms.
- Design experimental set-ups for testing the durability of VAT’s products in plasma etching systems.
