Master Thesis - Magnetic Positioning Systems
Silicon Austria Labs GmbHKI-Zusammenfassung
Bringing together applied science and industry, Silicon Austria Labs (SAL) conducts cutting-edge research in Sensor Systems, Microsystems, Intelligent Wireless Systems, Power Electronics, and Embedded Systems. As part of our Magnetic Microsystem Technologies (MMT) research unit, we are looking for a motivated Master's student. In this Master Thesis project, you will work in a team on magnetic positioning systems from design and assembly to calibration and testing.
Your future tasks include:
- Support of the assembly of positioning systems from digital twin models
- Taking field measurements from 3D magnetic sensors e.g. by operating a 6-degree-of-freedom stage with different magnet/sensor configurations
- Taking field measurements from printed demonstrator devices
- Analyzing measurements, helping with the calibration of demonstrators
- Testing/supporting the development of data inversion algorithms aimed at state detection of magnetic positioning systems
- Support improvement of such systems, investigation of system tolerances and environmental influences
- Collaborate with industry partner and actively contribute to the Chip2Sys program
- Preparation of progress reports and support the development of scientific outputs, e.g. conference abstracts, journal articles
Your profile:
- Enrolled master student (university in EU) in a related technical field
- Background in physics, mathematics, simulations, magnetics or electrical engineering
- Familiarity with Python as a scripting language for basic physics computations
- Experience with taking measurements from experimental physics/engineering lab courses
- Interest in learning about magnetic computations using Python libraries and learning how to operate a magnet-sensor positioning stage from a Python interface
- Excellent English communication skills
