SPIE Advanced Lithography 2011 showed few new tools or techniques, but many new materials and integration tricks to extend 193i into double-patterning for IC HVM, while EUV and DSA developments continue according to expert Dr. M. David Levenson of BetaSights.

The 2010 SPIE Advanced Lithography conference is where we first get glimpses of the future of nano-scale patterning technology for manufacturing. Sometimes, many fuzzy blobs come into focus as a picture in a single moment, and Yan Borodovsky of Intel showed how to do 22nm node litho the day before SPIE officially started. At both […]
