Singapore MDIS Pte Ltd Full time

Job DescriptionThe NISCM Cluster of the Solar Energy Research Institute of Singapore focuses on the research and development of cost-effective high-efficiency solar cells that are suitable for high-volume manufacturing. This includes both single-junction wafer-based silicon solar cells as well as perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells. Full-size n-type Cz silicon wafers are used as substrates and processed into either monofacial or bifacial solar cells. Selected research topics of the cluster include doped semiconductors (e.g. a-Si, poly-Si), tandem solar cell development, silicon bulk passivation, ultra-thin layers and new materials for passivated contacts, alternative doping methods (e.g. doped thin films), laser processing and advanced metallisation.
We are looking for a motivated candidate with proven expertise in heterojunction (HJ) silicon solar cell technologies to lead the technical development of large-area ( 400 cm2), 2-terminal (2 T) perovskite/silicon solar cells and reduce the barrier to manufacturing of 2 T tandem solar cells and modules.
Responsibilities include:Fabrication of 30% “industrially viable” and “stable” large-area ( 400 cm2) high-efficiency 2 T perovskite/silicon tandem cells using HJ and TOPCon silicon bottom cells.
Research focusing on the following:
Conceptualization, design, development and fabrication of low-cost methods for tandem solar cells with a specific focus on upscaling and commercialization.
Develop and drive an R&D roadmap for high-efficiency silicon bottom cells and/or tandem solar cells.
Develop a commercially relevant intellectual property (IP) portfolio.
Drive analysis and develop industrially relevant characterization methods and trackable performance metrics for complex industrial processes for tandem solar cells to accelerate commercialization.
Perform design-of-experiments (DOE) and advanced characterization to obtain optimized unit layers.
Design advanced patterning methods and/or masked/selective deposition.
Strongly contribute in the project team(s) for solar cell & module efficiency improvements.
Assist in developing new processes and improving existing processes.
Regularly present loss (and gain) analysis of tandem cells.
Be involved in roadmap discussions and contribute to the design and development of new processing tools and processes.
Lead, as well as conduct, the processing for high-efficiency perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells using tools such as: PECVD, PVD, ALD, sputtering, evaporation, slot-die coating, spin coating, wet-chemical baths, tube furnaces, laser tools, screen printing, annealing stations and curing/firing furnaces.
Develop key metrology metrics and workflows to enable in-line integration in future tandem solar cell production lines. This includes methods such as spectroscopic ellipsometry, contact resistivity, Hall, current-voltage (I-V) testing, quantum efficiency(QE), time-resolved photoluminescence (TRPL), photoluminescence quantum yield(PLQY), x-ray diffraction (XRD), x-ray fluorescence (XRF), mass spectroscopy (ICPMS), electron microscopy (SEM/TEM/FIB), contact potential, photo-electron spectroscopy(PESA, UPS, XPS) and other relevant characterization methods.
Assist the group with processing and characterization services for various industry funded and public-funded projects.
RequirementsPh D in Electrical Engineering/Materials Science/Physics or similar, with a specialization in heterojunction silicon solar cells.
At least 3 years of post-Ph D experience (5+ years preferred) in an industrial environment with full-wafer solar cell development and specialization in one or more among silicon bottom cell development, heterojunction / TOPCon technologies and/or full wafer ( 244 cm2) tandem solar cells, industrial characterization / metrology expertise or other relevant experience for tandem solar cell commercialization.
At least 2 years of proven project management experience in R&D and research translation for industrial PV technologies.
Must be a team player and possess excellent soft skills to lead and navigate large teams with diverse expertise and backgrounds.
Must be able to manage multiple stakeholders (internal and external) and work effectively on highly confidential projects.
Must be target-driven and well organized. Regular, reliable and predictable attendance and reporting is essential to this role.
Must be able to independently plan, initiate/execute and report on research activities.
Must be able to manage a team of process and equipment engineers supporting the R&D activities.
Researchers with prior experience in development of large-area 2 T perovskite/silicon tandem cells will be highly preferred.
Required to work in semiconductor cleanroom and characterization lab.
Expertise in relevant scientific software and/or scientific software development is a plus.
Excellent written and verbal communication (in English) skills required.
Excellent customer service skills required.
Must be able to work well with others in a collaborative team environment.
Effective communication of ideas and results to the team and/or other stakeholders is crucial.
