The Quartz Corp ansetter studenter til sommerjobb i forbindelse med deres studentprosjekt. Mer info her

For the student choosing master project

TEM INVESTIGATIONS OF NATURAL QUARTZ FOR TECHNOLOGICAL SOLUTIONS

Time and duration

June - August 2016, 4 weeks.

To get a kick start on the project work TQC/NTNU propose that the student start training in sample preparation and TEM operation during June/July when the capacity at lab facilities and personnel is better at NTNU.

Place

Trondheim and/or Drag (Tysfjord)

Tasks

During the summer job the student will work with relevant projects for the company and collaborate with the R&D group in TQC. The summer job will be related to method development, characterization, sample preparation and other R&D related tasks.

Required from the student

Background in materials physics (solid state physics) and interest in materials science would be an advantage. The student should be interested in experimental laboratory work using the TEM, and learning new practical skills. The student should take an active role with respect to putting the observations in to quartz material context, and need to obtain knowledge about quartz and quartz sand processing through this project.
