Internship Opportunity: Optical Simulation and Sensor Performance Analysis
Introduction
Are you a bachelor or master student in Physics, Maths, or Engineering looking for an internship? Are you challenged by demanding projects in a multidisciplinary context? Do you have some experience with programming and data analysis using MATLAB and Zemax? Are you able to cooperate in a technical team of professionals to realize customer requirements? Do you have some optical simulation experience? Then we have an exciting opportunity for you.
Background Information
The Sensors department of the Development & Engineering sector develops the sensors which are key for ASML. ASML lithography machines need to continuously improve to produce even more powerful computer chips. These machines use DUV or EUV light to print the chip design into a photoresistant layer which is only a few 10s of nanometers thick and gets even thinner.
Your Assignment
Our process requires positioning the wafer on which the chips are printed at exactly the right height. In order to do so, the Level Sensor will have to measure the height of the wafer with around 1 nm error at ever-increasing speed. We are exploring all kinds of different concepts to enable this. With this assignment in the Level Sensor group, you are the interface between optical and physics sensor performance.
Your assignment tasks include, but are not limited to:
- Exploring how to optimize the Level Sensor properties.
- Simulation and modeling will be part of the work.
- Determine wafer height map with 1nm accuracy.
- You will be a fully integrated member of the project team, join us in the office, and be the owner of your own topic.
Your Profile
To be a perfect match for this internship, you:
- Are busy with your Bachelor's or Master's in Physics, Maths, or Engineering.
- Are results-oriented and have a pragmatic attitude.
- Have some experience with programming and data analysis using MATLAB and Zemax.
- Have experience with optical simulation.
- Have good communication skills in English (verbal and written).
This is an internship for 3-5 days a week with a duration of 3 to 12 months. The start date is as soon as possible.
Please note that we can only consider students who are enrolled at a school for the entire duration of the internship.
Benefits
- Monthly internship allowance of maximum €600 (plus a possible housing or travel allowance).
- Practical guidance from experts in the field.
- The chance to work in and experience a dynamic team environment.
