You task is to develop next generation diffusion tight high temperature coatings on graphite. You will characterize and understand these materials, how they are synthesized and what properties they have. For example, its structure, ability to resist corrosive gases, combability to different semiconductors and its diffusion properties. For your work you will have access to a CVD machine and grow different types of coatings. For characterization you will have access to different tools such as X-ray diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscopy etc.
