TSMC's first European wafer fab receives € 5 billion subsidy for construction

The researchers estimate the period from 2023 to 2028. EUV lithography will address the limitations of traditional optical lithography, which has reached its physical limits in terms of resolution. The shorter wavelength of EUV light allows for the creation of smaller features and tighter patterns on silicon wafers, enabling the manufacture of advanced microchips with greater transistor densities....

Researchers have made breakthrough discoveries in the field of nanophotonics. They have successfully developed a locked mode ultrafast laser using lithium niobium, a material known for its excellent optical properties. This breakthrough opens up new possibilities for revolutionary applications, including telecommunications, data storage, and ultra fast imaging.A mode-locked laser is a type of lase...

Super-resolution fluorescence microscopy surpasses the diffraction limit of what used to be a barrier by using fluorescent probes and specific excitation and emission programs. Most SR technologies heavily rely on image computation and processing to retrieve SR information. However, factors such as fluorescence group photophysics, chemical environment of the sample, and optical settings may cause ...

On February 7th, at the Wuhan Semiconductor Laser Equipment Industry Innovation Joint Laboratory located in the HGTECH Technology Intelligent Manufacturing Future Industrial Park, Huang Wei, the technical director of the laboratory and the director of HGTECH Technology's semiconductor product line, gestured with his hands to introduce the principle of "glass through-hole technology" to Changjiang ...

According to reports, the Linac Coherent Light Source II (LCLS-II) X-ray laser at the Stanford SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in the United States has just completed an upgrade that took more than a decade. After a facelift, it has become the world's brightest X-ray facility and emitted the first record breaking X-ray, allowing researchers to record the behavior of atoms and molecules in bio...
