**Work Activities**: Background Advanced semiconductor devices are produced using extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light at just 13.5nm wavelength. The recent revolutionary introduction of EUV lithography (EUVL) was the culmination of several decades of collaborative work between industry and science - a Project Apollo of the digital age. EUVL is powered by light...

For this position, we are interested in investigating the influence of microbial activity on carbonate biomineralization Location: Amsterdam FTE: 1 Job description Specifically, the main goals are to determine the mineralogical, chemical and microbial composition of carbonate minerals that have been formed under a wide range of physicochemical...

**Work Activities**: In semiconductor device manufacturing, metrology tools are required for wafer alignment, overlay and device inspection. As devices become more complicated and as stronger light sources are being used to get sufficient signal from samples covered with optically opaque layers, optical damage can occur. Catastrophic damage is easily...

**PhD-student: Nonlinear metaphotonics for UV semiconductor metrology**: **Work Activities**: How do you design optical metasurfaces that efficiently radiate UV light by nonlinear frequency conversion? How do the geometry of meta-atoms and their arrangement in the metasurface translate into beam structuring, i.e., control over the amplitude, phase and...

**PhD-student: Nanophotonics and quantum physics with electrons and light**: **Work Activities**: Did you know high-energy electrons can serve as efficient sources of optical excitation of matter?
