Photonic Curing
Photonic Curing is the high-temperature thermal processing of a thin film using pulsed light from a flashlamp. When this transient processing is done on a low-temperature substrate such as plastic, paper or glass it is possible to attain a significantly higher temperature than the substrate can ordinarily withstand under an equilibrium heating source such as an oven.

About Us
WHAT WE DO
NovaCentrix offers industry leading photonic curing tools, conductive inks, material and expertise enabling development and production of next generation printed electronic devices – some already on the market. PulseForge® tools utilize photonic curing which is a cutting edge technology that dries, sinters, and anneals functional inks in milliseconds on low-temperature, flexible substrates such as paper and plastic. PulseForge tools can save time and money, and enable new types of products in applications like solar, RFID, display, packaging, and circuit. Our Metalon® conductive inks capitalize on advanced materials and formulation to provide conductivity options for additive manufacturing of printed electronics with stretchable, solderable, resistive, and magnetic qualities.
NovaCentrix partners with you to take ideas from inception to full production. Our PulseForge tools continue to revolutionize the printed electronics industry through photonic curing, enabling product innovators and manufacturers the option of flexible, low cost substrates and functionality not possible with conventional ovens and lasers.

Location: North Austin-Round Rock, Texas
As an Application Engineer, you will be engaged in three specific areas of work. First you will collaborate with our scientists and engineers to develop the next series of applications that use the PulseForge equipment to enhance processing capability. This includes writing reports and creating marketing collateral around the discoveries. Second, you will work with current or potential customers to conduct hands-on experiments and demonstrate the functionality of the PulseForge tools in their applications. Third, you will travel to customer sites, tradeshows or technical conferences to serve as the company technical representative. As part of the travel, you will be asked to train customers on ink and tool usage to maximize efficiency and safety or to make public presentations or demonstrations of the latest developments at NovaCentrix. This is a customer-facing role and sales is always relevant. To prepare you for the research and customer contact, you will be mentored for an initial time period to more quickly gain knowledge and confidence.To apply, please send your resume to: mike.webb@novacentrix.com
