PhD researcher on flexible devices at M2i

The concerted research between M2i, TNOand the Holst Centre aims at developing the technology for modular ultra lightand ultra thin, flexible, easy-to-wear electronic products such as lighting andsignage devices, reusable and disposable sensor devices, deformable solarpanels and displays. An important aspect of this program is to gain
knowledgeabout the mechanical behavior, reliability and durability of these flexibledevices during production and during actual usage.

The scientific aim of the project is todevelop tools that enable to understand and predict the life-time of multilayerlaminates taking into account the effect of visco-elastic and/or plasticmaterial behavior during cyclic loading and the environment, in particular relativehumidity, on the development of the mechanical damage.

The tools to bedeveloped comprise suitable experimental methods to impose a known stress/ strain state on a chosen multilayer material and to understand theunderlying physical mechanisms. The location is TU Eindhoven.
