Motorola Semiconductor Product Sector Work Values

Daily Duties at Motorola Semiconductor Product Sector:

Responsible for transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), and electron-energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) analysis for manufacturing support and technology development. Responsibilities and accomplishments include: - Close collaboration with film growers employing molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and physical vapor deposition (PVD). - Image processing and signal processing for TEM and EELS data analysis. - Critical assessment of the use of thin film perovskite buffer for GaAs-Si integration efforts. TEM/STEM/EELS analysis of hafnia thin films (candidate for alternative gate dielectrics). - Extensive microstructure evaluation of GaN films. - Demonstrated preparation of plan-view TEM samples of low-aspect-ratio micron-sized magnets through ultra-fine cutting with focussed ion beam (FIB). - Numerous TEM analyses in support of manufacturing and technology transfer. These include feedback for process control, assessment of critical dimensions, and identification of contaminants.

What they like about Motorola Semiconductor Product Sector:

Working in an organization that is technologically advanced, creative, and innovative is critical in your assessment of hiring companies. Less important to you are stability of the organization, the length of time an organization has been in business, and the business' plans for the future. You prefer a fast-moving company that will take risks to achieve its goals and objectives. The length of time the company has been in business is irrelevant. Maintaining status quo is unnecessary. You thrive on change, uncertainty and the upside of potential business risks, especially those associated with innovation. Stability for the long haul is not nearly as important as is working in an atmosphere that is charged with a sense of urgency and constant change.
