Thermal Energy and Temperature Transport during Laser-Semiconductor Interactions

Leuven | Just now

This is a simulation research project focus on the interaction between lasers and compound semiconductors(InP). This topic will contribute to the future development of heterogeneously integrated semiconductors.
This project focuses on the study of thermal energy generation and temperature transport processes during laser-semiconductor interactions, particularly in the context of III-V compound semiconductor integration. Efficient material transfer methods are crucial for advancing the integration of these materials, and laser transfer technology has emerged as a promising technique. However, the specific interaction mechanisms between laser pulses and semiconductors, as well as the energy and temperature transfer processes within the extremely short time frame of laser-material interaction, remain unclear. By simulating and analyzing the heat transfer mechanisms, this project aims to deepen the understanding of how laser-induced energy affects semiconductor materials at micro and nanoscale levels. The simulations will be performed using COMSOL and Matlab in combination. The expected outcome includes providing simulation results that will be experimentally validated, offering insights into the optimization of laser transfer processes for semiconductor applications.
