Internship Electrical Engineering

Introduction

ASML is one of the worlds leading manufacturers of lithography systems that help enable Moores Law and the creation of increasingly powerful and capable electronic devices. Our San Diego-based light source division Cymer is renowned for developing both deep ultraviolet (DUV) lithography light sources and next generation extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light sources. As the worlds leading semiconductor equipment manufacturer ASML enables chipmakers to produce cheaper speedier chips and to produce them faster thereby enabling all the technology you use today. The systems we produce integrate several large and sophisticated machines themselves each a feat of engineering innovation precision and speed.

We are a multinational company with over 70 locations in 16 countries headquartered in Veldhoven the Netherlands. We have 18 office locations around the United States including main offices in Wilton CT Chandler AZ San Jose CA and San Diego CA (DUV laser and EUV light source creation). We are currently recruiting for internships located at our office in San Diego CA.

In the Cymer Light Source (CLS) division in San Diego we design and manufacture Deep Ultraviolet (DUV) lasers used directly in the chipmaking process. Far from a basic consumer laser these machines are complex powerful and flexible. The lasers we make require: durable and high-speed precise motion-controlled optics to maintain wavelength to femtometer accuracy under high laser powers; advanced materials to endure the harsh Fluorine-rich environments and high powers; clever mechanical designs to allow high performance and fit all the parts within a confined space but still allow easy manufacturing and servicing; very fast high power electronics and electrical designs to deliver short high voltage pulses at precise timing to control pulse energy within hundredths of a percent; gas flows at hurricane speeds to keep the laser discharge area clear; cutting edge controllers and algorithms to deliver stable and consistent performance and automate all operations; and advanced real-time electronics firmware and software to control the laser and interact with other equipment. The laser needs to minimize use of expensive or rare resources like energy or Neon gas. It needs to actively control temperatures pressures gas concentrations timing and voltages precisely to maintain good performance. It must react instantly to changing customer demands and environmental conditions. And it needs to do all of this operating continuously and reliably for months while producing billions of perfect light pulses without any human intervention or downtime.
