Great video from Chris Mack, the man who probably taught the most people in the world about lithography and modeling. He only got into it cuz his first day at the NSA, they had a litho tool being delivered and they didn't have anything for him to work on. youtu.be/k6z8RfvTxDg?si…


This is the example from ASML to see the world-wide cooperation for the most advanced scanner. If someone restrict components from solo supplier in supplier chain, then there will be no integration and no tool can be delivered.

My opinions: 1. IFS is still in infant stage and need "Mother" to carry on. In IDM, usually designer is dominate and fab supports design for manufacturing. But in foundry, it "typically" does not proceed that way. 2. intel tested "selected customers" fou…lnkd.in/gC8kxXQu

There are lots of published papers about SEM image "Denoising" using DL/ML/AI to improve image quality for pattern CD/roughness metrology or reduce frames to improve SEM productivity recently. For more than 2 years working on CD metrology, I fully agreed…lnkd.in/gmy4mrPe


Just curious about the cost added for BPR and found the paper published by imec in 2019 VLSI conference. The Ball Park estimation for these data: for BPR cost increase will be ~4%. The power track area saving could be ~10%. Total cost saving could be ~5%…lnkd.in/gsx9W2-Z
