I can spot bs from 10 miles away when "analysts" talk about this business now. Like bruh... I watched every Asianometry video..... It's amazing how many people get to come on TV or other places as "experts" who don't have 1/5th the knowledge on the subject as what's been presented here. This is the future, it's insane how many people are half ass learning about this when it matters so much for so many different fields. I don't understand how people in finance can talk about tech without having a decent understanding of semiconductors as it drives most companies now.

I appreciate these technical level videos you’ve put out there. They have the same tone and ‘flavour’ as the old articles from pre-1995 Scientific American. They aren’t meant for technical specialists already in the industry but they aren’t fluff videos which give little new understanding, the audience are more sophisticated non-specialists willing to use their brains to learn something new. Your videos require the viewer to actually ‘think’ about the material and do a little work at trying to grasp the content. Well done.

One small correction: As you said, first came contact printing, and then they provided a small gap between the mask and the wafer. This is call proximity printing. This greatly reduced defects. But to get to even more resolution, they moved the mask away from the wafer and put a lens in between the mask and the wafer. This is what is called projection printing or lithography. The image of the mask is projected onto the wafer. This was done at first across the whole wafer. To further improve resolution, they made step and repeat systems to project onto a small area of the wafer at a time. These are the steppers that we have to this day, but of course with increasingly higher resolution with every generation of the steppers.

There is actually one more historical shift and that is from steppers to scanners. The former projects the entire die/mask image onto the wafer and then steps to the next one. Modern scanners only illuminate a narrow slice (due to limitations of the 193nm lasers) and simultaneously translate the mask and the wafer to expose the entire die design.

I work on photolithography equipment and personally never thought the day would come that EUV - with high cost/insane optic specs/stochastic defects/relatively low throughput - would be a mass market tool. Which really it isn't - there are only 3 or 4 companies using it at scale - due to "the 'juice not being worth the squeeze". It's simply too expensive and too few applications exist where EUV somehow improves the chip performance enough to justify the price. Plain old i-Line/248/193/193i DUV still makes the vast majority of chips you use today and will use in the future. I suspect we're nearing the end of the road where we can keep making chips faster/cheaper by making them smaller. EUV will probably be the last generation of chip making equipment intended to go smaller and smaller, and quantum tunneling issues will determine at what size we stop.

As you acknowledge, staying across this stuff requires a ton of research, and that's a tremendous gift to pass on - and you have a tremendous gift for conveying it. Your coverage is more than just insightful - it's an antidote to the frustration I share with many downstream consumers, to whom today's market conditions often elicit a certain cynicism of ignorance, which is a burden - "enlightening" would be a better word. I appreciate that you have to consider viewership in choosing the topics you invest so much time on. In light of that, I pledge to increase my level of support on patreon and perhaps others who would wish for a continued focus on these less popular topics can do so too (and let you know).

The amazing thing about all this is the extent that sub-wavelength litho engineering really saved the day. Don't get me wrong, I am amazed when I look at the opening sequence and see that huge stainless proto EUV tool at ASML. Huge, klunky, lots of nuts and bolts and round doors sealing up various vacuum compartments. and to think that somehow they compressed all that crap into a standard footprint of any 193 tool. Just nuts. But beyond the notion of immersion, without the wild masks, or the various apertures or the super-clever OPC software, or the other many techniques and damn-near tricks - EUV progress would never have had enough time to meet up with Moore's Law. My hats off of course to the EUV geniuses. But more-so - to those who extended 193 beyond what was imaginable in the 1990s - extending a lifeline to NGL for at least another decade.
@Gameboygenius
@Gameboygenius Жыл бұрын
I'm almost more impressed with 193 than EUV tbh. I feel like everyone knew EUV would work, and the battle was always economical viability. (Then we perfected tin droplets which tipped the scale and the rest is history.) However, the sub wavelength patterning done with 193 blows my mind. Are we talking half the wavelength? No, try 1/5, and that's apparently _before_ taking multiple patterning into account. Learning about this broke my assumptions about the physics of light.

... maybe less popular, but probably the most important. I was a coder in the early 80’s, writing the code that controlled the wafers traveling into and out of the quartz tube (on a quartz ‘boat’) to be heated,exposed to various gasses,etc. I moved on, but still code (a lot). It’s beyond remarkable how so many tools I wished I had access to then and over the years, are now so available. Knowing the historical steps, ie, the what,why,when and where, etc, is hard to bring together. But you are serving up that history in a way that’s easier to digest than most sources. I’ve been surprised when you present other topics in such a similar way. They are all fascinating ... please don’t avoid this one though. It’s really the center pin so much advancement in every other arena.

Your channel is awesome! I love this video as well. One comment though I think the biggest reason it's called EUV instead of soft x-ray is because at the time x-ray lithography at these wavelengths was tried many times but highly unsuccessful. So many PI's were most likely tired of hearing people wasting their time with this. So I think the decision was more to make it sound more appealing and avoid the large stigma towards x-ray lithography. Kinda a sales decision rather than an accuracy one if that makes sense.

Lithography is so interesting because it's a rarefied field where things like science and engineering rub up directly against geo-politics and global economy. And it's not a quantity-based technology like oil or minerals in terms of it's impact, but it's purely an industry expertise factor that directly effects global issues. This Dutch company that makes the x-ray lithography machines has this lynchpin position based purely on their exclusive in-house tech wizardry. That's really amazing.

It was very interesting, that alternatives like electron and ion beam lithography are long time discussed. On the first view electron beams, like in REM microscopes looks to be ideal. Light the chip like an TV screen without any complicated optics etc.. But that it is much to slowly to result in high enough production numbers. For me a comparation appears: Look on Uranium enrichment. There are multi thousands of centrifuges working parallel. So you get the needed throughput. So perhaps multi thousands of electron beam machines used in parallel may have a chance to follow the EUV technique. When making electron or ion beam lithography on laboratory scale. Meaning throughput is no theme, how small the nodes can be made ? A node of 3 nm means, that such a structure consists of around 30 layers of silicon etc. atoms. Where is the physical end of smallness of an transistor on an semiconductor crystal ? Ten layers or more / less. This would be the end of Moores Law. Than perhaps more 3D stacking of 1 nm devices can help to continue Moores Law. So the physical borders of size reduction would be a video worth.

I wonder if the next (waaaay next) gen tech will be a form of additive construction rather than subtractive lithography. Like how we're starting to print metal rather than machine a billet.

I'm doubtful because it seems like it would be difficult to use a mask that way. You could essentially sputter coat but, put a mask between the source and the substrate. But this would likely clog the mask real quick, making the mask essentially single use. Or, you could not use a mask, but instead use a focused ion beam to draw a vector image. I've heard of FIBs used in silicon reverse engineering where they can draw a conductive track between two points, basically a nano scale patch wire. This works in principle, but it would probably take years to finish a single die with billions of transistors. Just like with 3D printing it would be slow as hell because you can only process one tiny spot at a time.

The speed would be ridiculously slow. I suppose it might have some use in prototyping, but that's it: No-one wants a fab that pops out a chip every few hours.

No masks, just adding the material. Think of things like resin or powder fusing machines, lay down material, fuse it with photons, wash away unfused material. Or direct material deposition, at the atomic level. Not a single beam either, think millions of elements, each can manipulate those atoms. Hell, at some point it'll be a commodity item in your home and HP will remind you that your rare earth cartridge is low.

Maybe I'm weird, but I like listening to your videos while I'm at the gym. Finished this one in the middle of a really gnarly shoulder superset. Thanks man, your videos are always fascinating.

the dutch firm Mapper (now absorbed into ASML) was developing the multiple electron beam writing approach, but this was not a sucess. TSMC's flirt with Mapper was probably intended to motivate ASML to speed up EUV ...
