Plasma modelling engineer within DE
Introduction to the job
In the position of Plasma Modelling Engineer at ASML, you are responsible for modelling plasma in Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) Scanners. ASML owns a 3D hybrid Particle-In-Cell (PIC-fluid) model, dedicated developed for EUV-induced plasma. In this role you are responsible for maintaining and further developing this code as well as applying modelled results for developing solutions in scanner. This covers processes in the scanner volume and on the surfaces related to plasma, electrostatics, etching, particle charging and other related processes. You will also further develop and sustain this knowledge with the Competence team and provide input to Hardware and Competence projects in the area of plasma effects on particle release and transport, material degradation and EUV optics. Furthermore, you are responsible for identifying gaps in modelling roadmap and securing work to close these gaps via literature review, setting up academic collaborations or formulation of experimental verification of hypothesis.
Role and responsibilities
Education and experience
Academic background, MSc or PhD in physics, chemistry, applied mathematics.
Knowledge of plasma modelling methods, electrostatics, plasma technology and/or surface chemistry. Proximity to PIC models is highly preferred. Hands on knowledge with C, C++, and/or Python.
Experience: 3-7 years
Skills
Working at the cutting edge of tech, you’ll always have new challenges and new problems to solve – and working together is the only way do that. You won’t work in a silo.
