Physics Internship: Modeling of Alignment Marks

2 weken geleden


Veldhoven, Noord-Brabant, Nederland ASML Voltijd

Introduction

Are you a Bachelor or a Master student in physics or mathematics or a related field looking for an apprentice or graduation internship? Are you familiar with semiconductor processing technology and do you have a strong understanding of the MATLAB programming language? Then this internship might be interesting for you

Background information

The Business line Applications provides integrated solutions with computational metrology and control technology for extendibility and improved efficiency of lithography products. Within Development & Engineering of the Business Line Applications, the Alignment Performance and Integration group (Align P&I) is part of the Process Window Control (PWC) Alignment department. The group is responsible for the development of wafer fab applications that optimize the alignment between layers on product wafers of our customers in order to improve overlay performance, where alignment is considered in a holistic sense with constituents such as wafer fab environment and way of working, sensors, algorithms and supporting SW applications. The Align P&I group is a team of 26 highly engaged and motivated people, that value open communication and informal interaction.

Your assignment

Alignment accuracy is highly impacted by asymmetries of alignment markers induced by processing. A promising method is to use physics-based process modeling to predict the impact and optimize the alignment marker design accordingly. In general, you will be contributing to developing, calibrating and validating the physics-based process models, which will be used to simulate and understand the process impact on alignment. Together with the team, you will also help to develop a solver which can be used for numerical optimization of inverse problem. Running simulations on HPC (High Performance Computing) is also a part of the assignment. At last, you will document and present the learnings to ASML internal stakeholders.

Your Profile

To be a perfect match for this internship, you:

Are a Bachelor or Master student in physics, mathematics or a related study. Are familiar with semiconductor processing technology and have knowledge in method or algorithm for solving an inverse problem (nice to have). Have a strong understanding of the MATLAB programming language. Have strong problem solving skills and mindset together with the ability to take initiative. Have great communication skills and you are a demonstrated team player.

​This is a Bachelor or Master internship with a duration of a minimum of 6 months, for 4-5 days a week, starting as soon as possible.

Please note that we can only consider students who are enrolled at an educational institution for the entire duration of the internship.

Change the world – one nanometer at a time

Become an intern at a Dutch company that's a global industry leader. You'll gain valuable experience in a highly innovative environment – one that sparks your imagination and creativity. In addition to a monthly internship allowance of maximum €600 (plus a possible housing and free public transport), you'll get practical guidance from experts in the field and the chance to work in and experience a dynamic team environment.

ASML - be part of progress

ASML is a high-tech company headquartered in the Netherlands. We manufacture the complex lithography machines that chipmakers use to produce integrated circuits, or computer chips. What we do is at the heart of all the electronic devices that keep us informed, entertained and connected. Every day, you use electronics that simply wouldn't exist without our machines.

Behind ASML's innovations are engineers who think ahead. The people who work at our company include some of the most creative minds in physics, electrical engineering, mathematics, chemistry, mechatronics, optics, mechanical engineering, computer science and fields which are not technical oriented.

We believe we can always do better. We believe the winning idea can come from anyone. We love what we do – not because it's easy, but because it's hard.

Students - getting ready for real-world R&D

We're a global team of about 39,000 people of 140 different nationalities and counting. Headquartered in Europe's top tech hub, the Brainport Eindhoven region in the Netherlands, our operations are spread across Europe, Asia and the US.

In such an environment, your colleagues may be sitting next door, or they could be thousands of kilometers away in a different country – or even working for a different company.

An internship at ASML is the opportunity to get to know not only the world of industrial-strength R&D, but yourself – you'll discover just what excites you most. Will you design a part of the machine, or make sure it gets built to the tightest possible specifications? Will you write software that drives the system to its best performance, or work side-by-side with the engineers of our customers in a fab, optimizing a system to the requirements of the customer?

How will you be part of progress?
