Science and Technology Hegemony Text Volume 378 Chapter 378 The corporate world is also making big moves in the national team. In general, the technical indicators of the fourth-generation lithography machine are about 20 times that of the third-generation euV.
This is like the iteration of a horse-drawn carriage and a train. The gap is all-round, and the shorter wavelength is just an appearance. The most amazing innovation is that Star Technology has broken through the physical limit of exposure power.
Ordinary people may not know that from the first generation to the third generation of lithography machines, they are all the result of miracles.
Taking the third-generation euV as an example, the extreme ultraviolet light is a super-powerful electric tiger. The 250w machine consumes up to 30,000 degrees of electricity every day of work, and it also needs a set of cooling system with an astonishing size. auxiliary.
Insufficient technology, combined power, has always been the logic of the development of lithography machines. Before Xingchen Technology, no company has really solved this problem. The ideas of engineers are usually simple and rude. They want more accurate exposure effects. Just continue to increase the power, manufacture larger light source generators, and polish more sophisticated lenses.
The reason why Xingchen Technology was able to completely solve the problem is because they did not continue the tradition of overexplosive high-power light sources, but directly used lasers.
Essentially speaking, Star Technology’s fourth-generation lithography system is a laser scattering platform. This thing can not only etch silicon wafers, but also develop laser weapons after the process is improved.
Of course, there is still a long technological tree to climb from the laser etching platform to the laser weapon, and it cannot be accomplished overnight.
“It’s laser scattering! The Chinese used laser technology!”
“Laser etching of 0.5 nanometers? Doesn’t that mean that Star Technology has the ability to advance the index of the chip to 0.1 nanometers, or even lower?”
“It’s completely unimaginable. If the design side keeps up, they can manufacture as many cores as they need. It is no longer a dream to put a 128-core processor into a mobile phone.”
“Is this awesome?”
“Star technology is awesome!”
Although most people who eat melons cannot understand the technical parameters reported by Luo Jia, professionals quickly understand the power of this lithography system.
The lithography technology, which has lasted for decades, has been reborn since then. Ultraviolet lithography is about to withdraw from the stage of history, and the future will definitely belong to the laser etching technology of Xingchen Technology.
Chip, the top product that dominates human technology, will reach a new height in terms of technology. Chip products of one nanometer, one-tenth one nanometer, or even one-tenth one nanometer will replace the existing seven-nanometer technology. Power consumption, processing power, and heat generation will all be improved by leaps and bounds.
The future has come, Huaxia’s science and technology colleagues are cheering for it, but the western world is in deep fear. They never imagined that what Star Technology has come up with today is the real fourth-generation technology. Moreover, the technical level is so high that it can almost be described as a miracle.
“I don’t understand it at all, but so many people are posting barrage, does it mean that it is very powerful?”
As Luo Jia’s introduction continued, the people who eat melons didn’t know what was going on, and asked about it one after another.
“It’s more than amazing, Xingchen Technology is awesome! The fourth-generation lithography technology can be used not only for silicon wafers, but also for the development of more advanced graphene wafers and polymer carbon wafers in the future! Yes! Technology for decades to come!”
Science and technology enthusiasts have exclaimed that the invention of any great technology will bring more than just a little change to human beings, but an uproar.
Just as the advent of the Karman vortex street technology has completely changed the global energy landscape, Russia and the Middle East have been affected by the sharp drop in oil prices and have suffered extremely heavy losses, and the people are going crazy.
From the three eastern provinces to the inland, more and more beautiful Russian girls come to China to work. Visas, they had to continue pouring into Europe.
A huge change in culture and religion is brewing in the land of Europe. The rapid increase in the number of refugees has caused the European authorities to complain. It is too late for them to regret it now. , has been unstoppable, the future of Europe, everything is full of unknowns.
Luo Jia paused, with a gratified smile on his face.
This is a lonely speech, there is no host on the scene, and there is no crazy cheering from the audience, but Luo Jia still devotes himself fully, giving full play to his imagination, from science to trade disputes It talked about the rolling history.
“How accurate is the high-precision laser etching?” Luo Jia said with a smile: “It is so precise that even the air cannot be tolerated. During the exposure process, no gas can even intervene. According to the original method, Use ultra-pure deionized water to fill the gaps between chips. This is the famous immersion lithography technology. The HiSilicon Kirin cPu, Intel cPu, and Qualcomm Snapdragon cPu you are using now all use immersion lithography technology. Made.”
“Immersion lithography technology is very powerful, but it is also a pity that the patents for this technology are all in the hands of Dutch asmL and Neon Nikon. It is difficult for late-developing technology companies to do so. Obviously, Nikon and asmL would not sell us the patent, so we had to develop our own exposure-fill technology.”
“Do you know what is more nonsense? If you want to achieve high-precision isolation filling technology, you first need ultra-precision step-scanning technology to monitor the constantly flowing water molecules!”
“So, we sent another team to work on the scanner…”
Luo Jia talked eloquently. There were many dry things in his speech, and there were also many interesting stories. These stories were not all joyful, but also a lot of sad.
The difficulty of research and development is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. In order to bypass Western patents, the lithography team has done countless work. Engraved products, because the West does not enforce a technological blockade against South Korea.
In our country, many technologies cannot be bought with money, and many patents will never be authorized to us by the West.
“Okay, I’m here today, not to complain to everyone. Xingchen Technology is a group of tough guys, no matter how hard it is, we can bear it. It’s just that some netizens scolded the scientific research community for their incompetence. I can’t accept it, I have to say a few words.”
“We are different. Neon and South Korea only need to pay 80% of their efforts in scientific research, while we have to pay 1,000%! This is the most real status quo. Hostility and malice, and for many years to come, there will be no change.”
“Okay, this is the end of today’s speech. I said so much nonsense, but I actually talked about two things. First, there is no successful case of kneeling and licking a nation in this world, so it is very important to maintain self-confidence. , we manufactured the world’s first fourth-generation lithography machine, laying a foundation for China’s semiconductor road.”
The conversation suddenly changed, and Luo Jia said in a mysterious tone, “When it comes to the basics, you may have heard that the Ali Group took the lead and vowed never to take the opportunity to poach Huawei’s talents, and their own talents are willing to go to Huawei.” Huawei, they will let it go.”
“Maybe you have also heard that many companies in China have jumped into the bottomless pit of the semiconductor industry without hesitation in order to win a breath. Tencent, which has a hardware gene, also gathered a team of people and rushed to surround audio solutions.”
“You have also seen with your own eyes today that Star Technology is not idle~ Soverse.com~ After solving the problems of passive components and lithography machines, the next step is to make masks and make the underlying machine language in Chinese , chip logic, description pipeline, execution unit, command register, etc.”
“However, these actions are all from the corporate world, China’s real big boss. So far, there seems to be no action.”
After that, Luo Jia laughed, with a mysterious smile.
The people who eat melons have speculated that the real big boss of Huaxia naturally refers to the national team.
The national team is different from the folks. Once the state machine starts, it cannot stop and will crush everything!
What does Luo Jia mean? Could it be that the national team is about to move! ?
These words immediately aroused everyone’s great curiosity, but Luo Jia made a fool of himself and said: “Actually, I just got the news that the national team will make a big move, half an hour before the live broadcast begins.”
Finally, Luo Jia raised his wrist, glanced at the time on the Huawei smart watch and said, “In ten minutes or so, the official announcement will be made at 9:00 tonight. Please wait and see.”
