(author)Nowadays most overlay metrology tools assess the overlay performance based on marker features which are deposited next to the functional device features within each layer of the semiconductor device. However, correct overlay of the relatively coarse marker features does not directly guarantee correct overlay of the much smaller device features....conference paper 2016

van Es, M.H. (author), Sadeghian Marnani, H. (author)Inspection of EUV mask substrates and blanks is demanding. We envision this is a good target application for massively parallel Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). We envision to do a full surface characterization of EUV masks with AFM enabling 1nm true 3D resolution over the entire surface. The limiting factor to do this is in the sensor itself:...conference paper 2016

Bijster, R.J.F. (author), Sadeghian Marnani, H. (author), van Keulen, F. (author)Optical near-field technologies such as solid immersion lenses and hyperlenses are candidate solutions for high resolution and high throughput wafer inspection and metrology for the next technology nodes. Besides sub-diffraction limited optical performance, these concepts share the necessity of extreme proximity to the sample at distances that...conference paper 2016

Nanda, G. (author), van Veldhoven, E. (author), Maas, D.J. (author), Sadeghian Marnani, H. (author), Alkemade, P.F.A. (author)The authors report the direct-write growth of hammerhead atomic force microscope (AFM) probes by He+ beam induced deposition of platinum-carbon. In order to grow a thin nanoneedle on top of a conventional AFM probe, the authors move a focused He+ beam during exposure to a PtC precursor gas. In the final growth stage, a perpendicular movement of...article 2015

Nieuwland, M. (author), Bouwman, W.G. (author), Bennink, M.L. (author), Silletti, E. (author), de Jongh, H.H.J. (author)Mechanical behavior of a protein gel plays a large role in sensory properties. Despite the large amount of research on caseins, the origin of the mechanical behavior is not well understood yet. To determine the length scales that are relevant for the mechanical behavior of casein gels, casein micelles were crosslinked with increasing amount of...article 2015

Fischer, H.R. (author), Cernescu, A. (author)Bitumen and bituminous binders are a mixture of a wide variety of molecules with different size and nature; a-polar as well as polar, aromatic as well as aliphatic, chain-like as well as two-dimensional in nature. However, most of the bitumina display at ambient temperatures a spontaneous formation of micro-phases displaying different mechanical...article 2015

(author)Carcinogenic chromates are phased out as corrosion inhibitors in organic coatings, and are replaced by benign alternatives. Cerium-based compounds are excellent corrosion inhibitors in an aqueous environment. However, whether they are effective as corrosion inhibitor in an organic coating also depends on their interaction with the coating matrix...article 2014

Fischer, H.R. (author), Dillingh, E.C. (author)The occurrence of discrete cracking of bitumen and asphalt is difficult to observe/analyse mainly because of the viscous nature of the bitumen binder. Many techniques simply do not have the required resolution or analysis techniques do not get a good response from the highly dissipative bitumen. In this study, an attempt is made to visualise...article 2014
