On Tuesday, November 10th, Joris Scheers successfully defended his thesis Charge-state-resolved spectroscopy of multiply-charged tin ions at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Scheers did his doctoral research in the EUV Plasma …
Extreme ultraviolet light (EUV light) does not naturally occur on earth, but it can be produced. In the latest nanolithography machines, that is realized using an immensely hot tin plasma.
“We were amazed that we could see light shine through a sheet of liquid tin”, says group leader Oscar Versolato. The EUV Plasma Processes group at ARCNL studies tin microdroplets …
On Thursday, December 19th Francesco Torretti (from the ARCNL group EUV Plasma Processes) defended his PhD thesis ‘Spectroscopy of highly-charged Sn ions for extreme ultraviolet nanolithography’ at the Vrije Universiteit …
Group leader Oscar Versolato has been awarded tenure. He will be employed by Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, partner of ARCNL, as ‘Universitair Hoofddocent’ (Associate Professor) while working as permanent group …
On June 21st Mart Johan Deuzeman successfully defended his PhD thesis ‘Generation and interactions of energetic tin ions’ at the University of Groningen. Deuzeman did his doctoral research in the …
On April 4th, Dmitry Kurilovich defended his PhD thesis ‘Laser-induced dynamics of liquid tin microdroplets’. Kurilovich is the first PhD student to start and finish his doctoral studies at ARCNL.
ARCNL group leader Oscar Versolato has received a Starting Grant of 1.5 million euros from the European Research Council (ERC). The ERC uses the Starting Grants to support talented scientists …
Ronnie Hoekstra (ARCNL group leader) received EU funding for his work on the dynamics of the electron beam driving an X-ray light source. The grant was awarded to the consortium …
ARCNL group leader Oscar Versolato has been awarded a NWO Vidi grant. This grant enables Versolato to study the physics of plasma sources of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light for nanolithography.
