</b></h3><div><div><p>Development of metrics and application benchmarks for Daffodil, a new memory device characterization platform being developed at NIST. Daffodil is a versatile test vehicle capable of accommodating all types of two-terminal memory devices for rapid characterization. In collaboration with Western Digital, we have already demonstrated its applicability spin transfer torque magneto-resistive random-access memory (STT-MRAM) technology. While the initial version of Daffodil provided a proof-of-concept demonstration, we are continuing to develop Daffodil into a plug-and-play, open-source analog memory characterization and benchmarking platform that offers a turnkey product suitable for both academic and industrial settings. The candidate will develop metrics and application benchmarks in close collaboration with the engineers working on the hardware platform and with feedback from many industrial and academic groups. The project will involve machine learning and machine learning training, physical device modeling, programming and FPGA programming. The position is based in NIST, Boulder but will also involve travel and collaboration between NIST Boulder and NIST Gaithersburg (2-4 trips per year).</p>
