Chinese scientists discover method to cut defects by 99% with DUV chipmaking equipment, but it destroys EUV pattern fidelity — analyzing photoresist clustering with cryo-ET at 105°C

Chinese researchers have visualized how photoresist polymers cluster during development using cryogenic electron tomography and found that slightly raising post-exposure bake temperature could reduce defect density, but the finding has limited practical impact since this temperature is already typical for DUV processes and unsuitable for EUV lithography, where it would harm resolution and yield.

New Project Brings Strong Linux Compatibility To More Classic Windows Games

Now, a new open source project is seeking to... Read more

It's wonderful in the winter - like wearing a yeti hug - and yet I rarely wear it. The problem with this glorious coat is that it's not something to throw on if it's... Read more
