Materials Science Intern

Your role at C12:

As part of the Carbon NanoTube (CNT) Growth team at C12, you will work on the key component of the quantum processors and search for ways to improve the quality and yield of their production process.

Your job will involve:

Getting familiar with the CVD setup, C12 processes and characterization equipment - e.g. SEM, EDX, AFM, mass spectrometer 

Designing an experimental protocol to assess the influence of the Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) parameters on the growth of carbon nanotubes - e.g. geometry, density of catalyst nanoparticles, position in the furnace - and on the overall performances of the CVD

Collaborating with the characterization and nanofabrication teams to characterize the catalyst nanoparticles and to determine the properties of the grown carbon nanotubes

About You:

You are pursuing a Master’s degree in engineering, physics, chemistry or any related field and are looking for an end-of-studies internship

You love experimental lab work, have a problem-solving attitude - a previous experience in a lab / cleanroom is a plus 

You are used to collecting, organizing and analyzing experimental data - programming skills are a plus (e.g. python)

You are result-oriented, organized and rigorous in your documentation

You can fluently communicate in English (verbal and written)

 

Preferred traits

Experience in materials characterization techniques (e.g. SEM, EDX, AFM)

Experience with small electronics and mechanical parts

• You want to contribute to achieving landmark results in quantum computing, making a difference in the emerging quantum technologies
• You want to work within a 80+ people team with various backgrounds in nanofabrication, quantum electronics, and carbon nanotube science to create a revolutionary quantum computing processor
• You want to thrive in an exceptional scientific environment with several industrial and academic partners
• You share our values (excellence, scientific integrity, diversity, curiosity, and care) and want to help us define our product-focused culture and ambition to accelerate
