Extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) lithography at 13.5 nm is expected to be introduced in high-volume semiconductor chip production over the next three years. Research is now underway to investigate sub-10 ...
Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography is the next step in this trend. It uses radiation of wavelength 13.5 nm, thereby offering significant potential to extend the resolution of photolithography.
Each low-numerical aperture (NA) extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography system costs over US$100 million, making it one of the most expensive semiconductor manufacturing tools in history.
