China's reported development of its own extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography machine to make advanced semiconductors for ...

In semiconductor manufacturing, lithography is a critical process that uses light to transfer intricate circuit (IC) patterns onto a silicon wafer. This process enables the creation of tiny ...

Extreme ultraviolet lithography extends photolithography to much shorter wavelengths and is a cost-effective method of producing more-advanced integrated circuits. Although some infrastructure ...

Over the past few years we’ve seen several impressive projects where people try to manufacture integrated circuits using hobbyist tools. One of the most complex parts of this process is lithography: ...

Soft lithography is a family of non-photolithographic techniques used for fabricating micro- and nanostructures using elastomeric stamps, molds, and conformable photomasks. Unlike conventional ...

Belgian research lab Imec has revealed advances single-print high numerical aperture EUV lithography at the ‘SPIE Photomask Technology + EUV Lithography’ conference in Monterey California: Line ...

In lithography, optical proximity and process bias/effects need to be corrected to achieve the best wafer print. Efforts to correct for these effects started with a simple bias, adding a hammer head ...

Ion beam lithography is used to create fine nanostructures on a surface, such as circuit boards. It can be used to directly write on the material, rather than using a photomask, as in photolithography ...

Lithography, based on conventional ink-printing processes, is a technique for patterning a variety of layers, such as conductors, semiconductors, or dielectrics, on a surface. Nanopatterning stretches ...
