Job Description
Applied Materials’ team in the Silicon Product Group is searching for interns to join our team in summer 2027! The team closely works with the engineering groups in our business units to design the next generation plasma processing tools. The summer interns will be involved in projects related to forward-looking research and development, plasma and plasma – surface interaction model development, understanding the atomic-scale physics at surfaces in contact with plasma, and machine learning methods to accelerate plasma product and process design. Potential projects could include:
- Understanding and designing new plasma processing systems
- Use molecular dynamics simulation to understand fundamental processes at surfaces in contact with plasma
- Developing new capabilities in our internal plasma and feature scale models
- Use plasma and surface physics models to understand leading-edge plasma etch and deposition experiments
- Apply in-house plasma models to understand complex plasma behavior
- Explore machine learning methods to accelerate how 2-dimensional (2D) and 3D plasma and feature-scale models are developed and used
Requirements
- Student must be pursuing a Ph.D. degree in Engineering, Physics, Chemistry, Computer Science, or a related field
- Student must be in good academic standing at their university, with a GPA of 3.0 or above on a 4.0 scale
- Proficient in some of the following fields: computational physics, plasma physics, molecular dynamics, plasma chemistry, surface physics, density functional theory, reacting flows, fluid dynamics
- Knowledge of machine learning applications will be useful
- Quick learner, high degree of flexibility and problem-solving skills
