Building an integrated circuit (IC) requires various physical and chemical processes to be performed on a semiconductor (e.g., silicon) substrate. Millions of transistors can be fabricated and wired ...

The growing demand for heterogeneous integration is driven by the 5G market. This includes smartphones, data centers, servers, high-performance computing (HPC), artificial intelligence (AI) and ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Photolithography, the standard workhorse employed in today's semiconductor industry, has been the driver behind the ability to print increasingly smaller features at a lower cost.

Unlike traditional methods, NIL simplifies the process by eliminating complex optics, making it ideal for semiconductor memory applications with resolutions better than 10 nm. However, NIL faces ...

Yuliangsheng should be able to produce the first lithography system prototypes that are suitable for chips with structure widths of 28 to 7 nanometers: 28 nm chips are therefore possible with single ...
