Computer Engineer Development of RF and Digital Systems

MIT Lincoln Laboratory’s Advanced Technology Division develops advanced materials, devices, and subsystems that have broad impact on U.S. Government, industry, and academia. The Division has made a wide range of important contributions during the Laboratory’s 70+ year history, including development of bulk and epitaxial crystal growth, charge-coupled device (CCD) imagers, 193-nm lithography, fully depleted silicon-on-insulator (FDSOI) CMOS electronics, semiconductor diode lasers and amplifiers, superconducting electronics and quantum bit (qubit) devices, and photonic integrated circuits (PICs). To enable this advanced technology development, the Laboratory has implemented vertically integrated in-house resources to facilitate design, lithographic mask layout, material growth and characterization, fabrication (e.g., silicon, compound-semiconductor, wafer bonding, flip-chip hybrid), packaging, and testing of electronic and photonic circuits. These in-house resources are used to fabricate a variety of devices and circuits including lasers, waveguide photodetectors, optical modulators, and CMOS and cryogenic electronics with applications in quantum computing, atomic systems, advanced laser sources, microwave photonics, communications, sensing, and other areas of interest to the U.S. Government, industry, and academia. Fabrication resources include:
• Microelectronics Laboratory (ML): Cleanroom housing a silicon-fabrication toolset operating on 200-mm-diameter wafers at a 90-nm lithography node, which represents the most advanced silicon fab in the U.S. Government lab system.
• Compound Semiconductor Laboratory (CSL): Facilities housing III-V and non-silicon material growth (molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), diamond chemical vapor deposition (CVD)) and fabrication
• Microsystems Integration Facility (MIF): Packaging and integration facilities for wire-bonding, vacuum-reflow soldering, flip-chip hybrid integration
