This week we set our sights on Dasha Negri, recently appointed leader of the Optical Metrology Division¡¯s Advanced Development Team in Migdal HaEmek, Israel. Dasha joined us 16 years ago, while she was a student in the optics department at the Technion. There, she collaborated on her final graduate project with her lecturer, one of Íæż½ã½ã¡¯s Principle Scientists. When a student position in optics opened at Íæż½ã½ã, she applied and started her career with us. After finishing her degree in physics, she joined on a full-time basis.
Dasha enthusiastically explains: ¡°The heart of our metrology tools is high-end optics and advanced algorithms. We measure displacement between different structures on the wafer up to sub-nanometer accuracy, far below the optical diffraction limit. Our technology enables us to support our customers¡¯ ever-increasing needs to reduce the dimensions of their integrated circuits (ICs) while keeping a production-worthy yield.¡±
¡°I’m constantly exposed to new challenges.¡±
Today, Dasha manages a group of research scientists in the fields of physics, electro optics and data science. She explains that beyond being multi-disciplinary, the best part about working at Íæż½ã½ã is the stimulating environment. ¡°I’m constantly exposed to new challenges.
¡°Many times, we are conducting research to help solve the complicated challenges we face where high uncertainty is involved. This really energizes me every single working day. I storm on the challenges and prove to myself, day after day, that we can solve them and provide the solutions for our customers¡¯ needs.¡±
