Description

Project MimeCodr is at the forefront of the development of revolutionary microfabrication technologies. Our latest project aims to develop ultra-thin capillaries capable of transforming low-cost 3D printing with submicron resolutions.

Responsibilities

You will be involved in all stages of micro-capillary development, from design to manufacturing and characterization of prototypes. Your main tasks will be:

– Research and innovation: take part in cutting-edge research to push back the limits of submicron capillary manufacturing methods.

– Design and micro-fabrication: conceptualize and conduct experiments to optimize the formation and photopolymerization of double droplets in a microfluidic channel.

– Experimental characterization of the devices produced (microscopy, flow tests, fluid analysis).

– Optimization of the manufacturing method: analyze data to refine the process of creating smaller channels and achieve the target submicron resolution.

– Analyze results and suggest improvements to optimize micro-capillary performance.

What we offer:

– Hands-on experience: work on a high-impact project with the potential to revolutionize the 3D printing industry.

– Mentoring and growth: receive guidance from researchers, a post-doc and an entrepreneur. Improve your skills in experimental physics applied to microfluidics.

What we’re looking for:

– Academic background: currently enrolled in a degree program related to fundamental physics, materials science or a related field.

– Analytical mindset: strong problem-solving skills and keen interest in experimental design and execution.

– Team spirit: ability to work collaboratively in a multidisciplinary team environment.

– A genuine passion for innovation: a burning desire to contribute to groundbreaking technologies and an entrepreneurial spirit.

How to apply: Send your resume with a cover letter detailing your interest in the internship to matthieu.labousse@espci.fr and joshua.mcgraw@espci.fr. Include “Application for an internship in submicron additive micro-fabrication” in the subject line of your e-mail.
