Design of small shells: mechanical and electromagnetic properties   Centre for Microtechnology and Surface Analysis at the Danish Technological Institute is seeking a highly qualified person to work on the design and implementation of small shells that provides housing for small electromechanical devices. The key tasks will be design and implementations of housings adapted to individual shapes based on composite materials with embedded structures that provides for special electromagnetic properties.Your jobYour job will be to design and implement small housings for electromechanical devices. The shells are custom tailored and must fulfill stringent mechanical and electromagnetic requirements. Composite polymers will most likely be the primary material. However, conducting structures are envisaged to be embedded in the shells. These structures should shield against unwanted electromagnetic interference, but at the same time allow for signals that provides for wireless communication. The applications are products for health care, entertainment, and sensors.   QualificationsA Ph.D. or equivalent is required. A solid background within mechanical engineering and material science is essential. Knowledge about micro spatial lithography and ink jet printing of conductive elements is desirable and you should also have a strong motivation for devising applicable solutions. The position requires extensive collaboration with people of different backgrounds covering solid state physics, chemistry, information technology, electronics, and health care.  About the Danish Technological InstituteThe Institute is a private non-profit organization with a mission to promote growth, efficient use of resources as well as enhancement of the quality of life. The Institute performs evaluations, certifications and development work. Several activities are performed in connection with research projects with public support and industrial participation. The Institute is certified by the Danish government to perform technological service for industry and public agencies.The Centre for Microtechnology and Surface Analysis is actively involved in research projects, development activities and characterization tasks. The Centre project portfolio is steadily increasing evolving until new exciting grounds of nano- and micro technology including among other things clean room processes. The R&D work at DTI is always carried out in collaboration with companies and university partners with a strong focus on devising viable solutions to industrially relevant problems. That type of collaboration is surely challenging in its own right. Our next nano step and collaboration partnership may be defined by you!The Centre is well equipped for surface analysis, surface structuring, and surface treatments. Lately, the Centre has become heavily involved in surface engineering, sensors, and wireless technology. You can read more at www.dti.dk/6158.
