ASML

Introduction

In the ASML cleanroom inhouse performance tests are executed on all scanner types. The supporting wafer processing (e.g. coating and developing wafers) and wafer cleaning occurs in the Service Lab. In order to guarantee quality, for each performance test maximum delay times are defined wherein wafer processing should be performed. As a result, some wafers need to be processed again because delay time are exceeded.

Your assignment

The main challenge for your internship will be to preserve high quality standards, while targeting to reduce costs and lower material waste. We want to enable more efficient Service Lab operations by optimizing process delay times, while preserving high quality.

Your tasks will include:

• Investigate how two different process delay times can be optimized for the most relevant used wafer processes within ASML;
• Work on test plan creation and process selection;
• Experimental work in ASML's cleanroom;
• Analyse results and write a report;
