Optical lithography is the only volume-manufacturing technology that the IC industry has ever used. The cumulative advances in optical lithography have been nothing short of astounding, and no ...

In comparison, there are 40 lithography layers for at 22nm/20nm chips, 19 of which are critical layers. In total, there are 52 lithography exposures at 22nm/20nm, 31 of which are immersion exposures ...

Lithography never ceases to amaze me. True, there is some neat science going on in other areas of semiconductor process technology, but with the possible exception of ion implant, it is in the litho ...

In optical lithography, light shines through a mask–a type of stencil–onto a substrate, such as a silicon wafer, that’s coated with a light-sensitive chemical called a photoresist.

The result suggests that optical techniques can be extended through the 45 and 32 nm technology nodes. What's more, IBM now believes that the high-index immersion approach buys the industry seven ...

PORTLAND, Ore. — Optical lithography can be extended to 12 nanometers, according to Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers who have so far demonstrated 25-nm lines using a new technique ...

Given that the alternatives all have challenges, it looks to me that optical lithography will have to deliver the 16 nm and most likely the 11 nm node. In my last blog, I reviewed the news from SPIE’s ...
