ASML: Where Chemistry Matters
The world of ASML, the world of semiconductors in general, is largely a world of physics, mechanical engineering and mechatronics.
This world evolves around accurate optics, high speeds, and nanometer precision and stability. Smaller and faster microchips enable the developments of the future.
This future is both jeopardized and enabled by chemical reactions. High-lighting some of ASML’s technological challenges and achievements, I will guide you through the chemistry taking place in the semiconductor industry. Contrary to popular belief: chemistry matters!
CV
Maarten ter Heerdt completed his Master’s degree at Utrecht University. He then pursued a PhD at TU Delft, focusing on low-temperature chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of copper on plastics.
Following this, he continued in research at the University of Georgia in the United States.
Over the past 20 years, Maarten has held various roles at ASML and he currently works as an engineering materials specialist.
We hope to welcome you in Veldhoven on Monday, June 29th!
