Responsibilities

Visual inspections are used throughout the optics industry for optical quality and damage assessments. At Cymer, these rapid assessments are critical to our understanding of failure mechanisms and laser performance. But our ability to record this visual data for sharing and archiving is insufficient, suffering from easily addressed issues with lighting, fixturing, and standardization. We want to implement ISO standards for optical inspections within our Engineering and Reliability workspaces to facilitate reliable, non-contemporaneous comparisons of optics damage for new and field-returned optical components. This internship project is to build an optics inspection workstation based on industry standards and to qualify this workstation with images of new and used optical components, establishing criteria for uniform damage assessment.
As part of this internship you will learn about working in a corporate setting and get hands-on experience solving real world problems working alongside experienced engineers.
Interns will typically be required to document and present their findings as well as making an end of summer presentation to the group about what they achieved during their internship.
This job description subject to change and other duties may also be assigned.

Mission & Purpose

Who are we? ASML is an innovation leader in the global semiconductor industry. We make machines that chipmakers use to mass produce microchips. Founded in 1984 in the Netherlands with just a handful of employees, we’ve now grown to over 40,000 employees, 143 nationalities and more than 60 locations around the world. What do we do? We provide chipmakers with hardware, software and services to mass produce patterns on silicon through lithography. Our lithography systems use ultraviolet light to create billions of tiny structures on silicon that together make up a microchip. We push our technology to new limits to enable our customers to create smaller, faster and more powerful chips. Who are our people? While you may think that only engineers and mathematicians work at ASML, you'll be surprised to find out that our people come from a wide variety of backgrounds. Across ASML, we have dedicated teams that manage customer support, communications and media, IT, software development and more. Every team in the company is essential for pushing our technology and the industry forward. If you love to tackle challenges and innovate in a collaborative, supportive and inclusive environment with all the flexibility and freedom to unleash your full potential, ASML is the place to be.
