Actually, there's debate about whether Femto in Berserk is the correct spelling for the character. It's highly probable that the spelling is supposed to be "Phemt" after the technical concept of high-end-electron-mobility transfer with one of it's names being pHEMT. The concept is that it's a psudomorphic HEMPT.  This violation of a normal HEMPT is achieved by using an extremely thin layer of one of the materials – so thin that the crystal lattice simply stretches to fit the other material. This technique allows the construction of transistors with larger  bandgap differences than otherwise possible, giving them better performance. There are some who believe this is a metaphor for Femto's transformation, going from a weak human to a strong demon by melding itself to it's former human skin.

This is also brought to you by wikipedia and TV Tropes/Berserk forums.

But yeah, either way, Femt might've been the wrong spelling for the character. The only other thing I've managed to find with that name (as an acronym) is known as the Forensic Evidence Management Team.
