“What I find extremely important is to keep things light. We all experience pressure at work, but if you can keep yourself emotionally detached through a bit of humor, it frees the mind to come up with solutions faster.”
Antoine has used his expertise in chemistry and materials science to combat contamination and develop breakthrough cleanliness technology in the EUV (extreme ultraviolet) light source and optics, resulting in increased parts lifetime.
He has also made significant contributions to the lifetime of DUV wafer tables – developing coatings and reconditioning strategies that ultimately enable ASML’s overlay roadmap.
