ARCNL appoints Professor Dr Marcelo Ackermann as Director

Prof. Dr. Marcelo Ackermann will start this November as the director of ARCNL, the Advanced Research Center for Nanolithography in Amsterdam. He will succeed Dr. Wim van der Zande. Ackermann brings over 20 years of experience in academic, industrial, and contract research in applied physics and engineering, and has a strong track record in both academia and industry.

Prof. Dr. Marcelo Ackermann is currently a professor at the Faculty of Science and Technology at the University of Twente and chair of the Industry Focus Group X-ray and EUV Optics (XUV). This fall, he will move to ARCNL. His responsibilities will span multiple domains, including efforts to strengthen collaboration between academic research and industry, with special emphasis on EUV technology partners.

I am confident that Marcelo’s experience will greatly contribute to further strengthening the collaboration between our researchers and industry partners.
