Shown here in the form of ASML's "NXE: 3400B" tool, the first generation of production EUV lithography systems operates with a numerical aperture of 0.33. ASML is working closely with imec to accelerate the applicability of high-NA reflective optics to pattern even smaller feature sizes into semiconductor circuit designs. Photo: imec. |
