ASML

Who remembers our ASML HQ replica? 🏗️ A year ago, ASMLer Rick Lenssen’s masterpiece offered a detailed look at our vibrant campus, complete with gardens, a rainbow crossing, and even a falcon nest perched on top of one of our towers. 🦅 The massive display, consisting of 25,000 building blocks, now resides within one of our buildings – talk about a campus-ception! Have you seen it in person? What other hidden details have you spotted? ✨

What fuels innovation? 🤔 At ASML, it's a combination of pioneering ideas and expert execution. Our diverse teams unite the thinkers and tinkerers, the architects and artisans – all working together to keep powering technology forward with you.

Whether you're a long-time follower or just getting to know us, it's time to bust a few myths about ASML and the semiconductor industry. Do you have more to share? Let us know in the comments! 👇

As we celebrate 40 years of ASML, we reflect on not just our technology milestones, but also our digital evolution. 🖥️ Our website transformed significantly between the 1990s and 2010s. What's your earliest memory of exploring it? 🤔 Share your stories with us!

This poll is for all the Tolkien geeks out there! Our High NA EUV systems offer the world's highest resolution lithography. 🔍

Did you know that there are now over 1,000 YieldStar systems operating at our customer fabs? 🤯 Developed by ASML researcher and Corporate Fellow Arie den Boef, YieldStar quickly gained industry adoption and remains a crucial part of our holistic lithography product portfolio today. As chip designs became more complex in the 2000s, the need for precise measurement solutions became critical. YieldStar automates the measurement of wafer pattern quality with advanced optics and sensor technology, providing real-time feedback to optimize the semiconductor manufacturing process. 📈

As we celebrate four decades of ASML, we honor Henk Bodt, our key supporter in the 1990s. Bodt's contribution was pivotal in securing a crucial investment from Philips, closing the final funding gap needed to produce the PAS 5500. His belief in ASML during a period of financial uncertainty helped us not only find our footing in the semiconductor industry, but also proudly repay Philips in the same year. Reflecting on the unwavering confidence leaders like Bodt had in us, we're inspired to keep driving innovation and stay committed to keep powering technology forward with you. When was the last time you believed in an idea, and it actually worked out?

What does it take to stay on the cutting edge of lithography innovation for 40 years? 💡 Our journey from the PAS 2000 to High NA EUV has been driven by a unique focus on system architecture and integration. But in the fast-paced chip industry, focus is not enough. Discover how we’ve adapted, evolved and remained agile to meet the ever-changing needs of our customers. 👇

Fun fact: ASML refurbishes around 30 DUV lithography systems every year! ♻️ Refurbishing these machines helps to extend system lifespans, provides cost-effective options for customers and reduces waste from scrapping materials. It’s just one of the many ways we’re supporting a circular economy in the semiconductor industry. http://ms.spr.ly/6043lniRv
