The new technology also enables applications such as automated driving, 5G, Artificial Intelligence and other future innovations.

Lithography is shining exceptionally narrow beams of light with a EUV machine onto silicon wafers that have been treated with “photoresist” chemicals. The patterns which were laid beforehand are created on the wafer where the light comes into contact with the chemicals. Leading to the formation of the transistors that enable electric current to flow around a circuit. More transistors on a chip mean more power and efficiency. and above with leading optical lithography processes so far.

But it's not exactly super new. Smartphones using this advanced technology have been available since the fall of 2019. But how were they developed?ASML the leading semiconductor manufacturer is working on a new ultraviolet lithography machine. An ASML spokesperson that the company's new EUV machine will be bigger and more complicated than its current machine. The new EUV machine has a higher resolution due to its novel optic designs enabling it 1.7 smaller chip features and 2.

The manufacturers are beginning to mass-produce 5-nanometer node devices and starting to develop 3-nanometer node EUV machines by the end of next year.
