Coherent Axon laser won the 2023 Business Innovation Award from the British Physical Society

Recently, Mycronic AB received its first order from SK Electronics in Japan to upgrade the installed display mask writer from a gas laser to a solid-state laser. The upgrade is scheduled to be delivered within the next two years.Image source: MycronicIt is reported that Mycronic's "Pattern Generators" department provides mask writers for display manufacturing and semiconductor production. So far, ...

The beam emitted by almost all laser systems follows the Angle pattern of Gaussian distribution. The Gaussian irradiance distribution means that irradiance has a smooth peak at the center point and slowly declines toward the edge. In theory, the irradiance level of a Gaussian distribution can never reach zero, which means that the distribution can expand indefinitely. This phenomenon in the laser ...

On December 11th local time, New York State announced a partnership with companies such as IBM, Micron, Applied Materials, and Tokyo Electronics to jointly invest $10 billion to expand the Albany NanoTech Complex in New York State, ultimately transforming it into a high numerical aperture extreme ultraviolet (NA EUV) lithography center to support the development of the world's most complex and pow...
