Chapter 1404 Ultraviolet light source lithography machine
With [-] million US dollars in place, Huaqing Computer Research Institute ushered in the busiest time since its establishment.
For two full days, no one was free from the director Li Xueqian to the general researchers.
Everyone is preparing nervously for the upcoming renovation.
The lithography machine is a necessity for computer chip manufacturing. Once the transformation is successful, Huaxia's chip manufacturing level will surely make a breakthrough.
In the laboratory, Li Xueqian pushed the door and entered, and he brought good news to Lin Qinglan.
"Professor Lin, we have contacted Kemax, the supplier of ASML, and they have agreed to provide us with parts. Now the parts are on the way and are expected to arrive in China this afternoon." Li Xueqian said with a smile.
In order to get these parts as soon as possible, Li Xueqian can be said to have spent a lot of money. He spent an extra $6500 million on the parts that should have been 500 million US dollars, just to get the parts faster and complete the research.
It is true that money cannot buy time, but money can shorten time.
Hearing this, Lin Qinglan nodded, and picked up the folder on the test bench: "Professor Li, this is the transformation plan I have compiled in the past two days. Take a look, we will implement it like this if possible."
"No need, I'm just a layman when it comes to lithography machine technology, and you are an expert in this field." Li Xueqian waved his hand and said with a smile: "We will do what you say."
To say that Li Xueqian is an expert in computer materials science, but he doesn't know much about lithography machine manufacturing.
In this regard, Lin Qinglan is an expert among experts.
"How about this, Professor Li, let me tell you briefly to see if there is any improvement." Lin Qinglan nodded and said with a smile: "This time we mainly improved the light wave frequency of the lithography machine, as well as the optical lens and The alignment system and other parts, under ideal circumstances, once the transformation is successful, this infrared lithography machine can be successfully transformed into an ultraviolet lithography machine, and its accuracy can be greatly improved..."
Infrared light source, one of the original products of asml company, but with the increasing demand for chips, infrared light source recording can no longer meet the needs of the manufacturing industry, followed by ultraviolet light source, which has higher energy and can be extremely Greatly improve the recording accuracy.
Due to the international blockade, let alone an ultraviolet light source, even an infrared light source lithography machine is extremely rare in China.
An ultraviolet light source lithography machine, this is something that Li Xueqian could not even imagine.
"Professor Lin, can we really have our own UV light source lithography machine?" Li Xueqian held back the excitement in his heart, and tentatively asked.
"If my idea is correct, I think it is." Hearing this, Lin Qinglan nodded.
As the chief researcher of asml, he has worked in asml company for 6 years and participated in the iterative work of all products of asml company.
He is already familiar with every detail of the upgrade and transformation of the lithography machine.
If her plan is correct, the upgrade should go smoothly.
"Thank you, Professor Lin, Huaxia will remember your contribution." Li Xueqian said excitedly.
