Internship Programming Under Python For Soft Electronics Characterization - Duration Of 4 To 6 Months H/F - 13

Joining Mines Saint-Étienne means committing to an institution where science and innovation build a more sustainable future. It is a school of excellence where everyone has the opportunity to unlock their full potential and contribute to tackling the challenges of tomorrow.

Ranked among the top engineering schools in France and recognized worldwide, our school, a member of the Institut Mines-Télécom, educates the talents of tomorrow while actively addressing major industrial, digital, and environmental challenges. By joining us, you become part of a community of 500 members of staff, 2,500 students and take part in an ambitious project: combining academic excellence, cutting-edge research, and positive societal impact.

The Institut Mines-Télécom brings together France's leading Grandes Ecoles to tackle major industrial, digital, energy, and environmental challenges. With its eight public Grandes Écoles and two affiliated Graduate Schools, it is the leading public institute dedicated to engineers and managers. Together, we imagine and build a sustainable future by educating the leaders who will shape tomorrow's transitions.

What we expect from you :

As an intern, you will perform innovation and research activities in the field of soft. Within this centre of Microelectronics and the flexible electronics department, you will combine your passion for science and for societal impact.

The flexible electronics department develops technological and scientific knowledge in the field of soft electronics. The department has a strong knowledge in the field of material and interface electrical and mechanical characterization. The activities of the department are regrouped in the 660m2-area platform. This technological platform regroups facilities and technological equipment for R&D activities in Micropackaging, micro and nano-electronics, in a clean room of 220m² 1000-class and 400m² 10000-class.

The objective of this project is to update one of our measurement benches. It is primarily a test bench for flexible and stretchable applications, equipped with a translation table and electronic acquisition systems (Keithley). More specifically, it consists of an X-Y table with an integrated optical system: a side camera for bending analysis and a microscopic objective for damage or break analysis when the device is under mechanical constraint.

For this bench, the existing programs were developed in LabVIEW, but we now want to migrate them to Python, with particular attention to the user interface.

To carry out this work, it will be necessary to:

· Understand the current LabVIEW code and verify the proper functioning of the characterization system.

· Transfer the LabVIEW code to Python.

· Test all the functionalities of the characterization setup, including bending, stretching, electrical measurements (4-point resistance), and camera control.

Experimental work and programming knowledge are essential.
