Chapter 303 Prepare to make chips!(2/2)
Of course, they are just happy. After all, their chip with only X engraved on it is not difficult at all and has a 100% yield rate. It is really normal.
However, this also proves that their photolithography machine can work to meet the established requirements.
In addition, after a while, all ten silicon wafers have been photolithographed, and the work efficiency has also reached the set goal!
This is what really makes them all happy.
Now they can definitely say: Asmail's lithography machine is just like Tuyile. If you really want to see the world's top lithography machine, it has to be their X-ray plan!
Everyone present was excited and turned their attention to Lin Xiao again.
"Chief Master Lin, what should we do next?"
Lin Xiao smiled slightly, walked to a photolithography machine, then stretched out his hand and gently touched the X mark on it.
Then, he turned to look at them and said with a smile: "In three days, we will sign an agreement with Warwick. Then, I will explain to you what a surprise is!"
…
Three days later, in the conference room of the Dingguang Research Institute, Lin Xiao had a "secret conversation" with Ren Zhengfei and his group, who had come all the way from Warwick, and then obtained the design drawings of the Huawei Kirin 9000.
Then, he began to purchase "furniture" for their dust-free workshop: oxidation furnaces, deposition equipment, etching machines, packaging machines, ion implanters, etc.
These things are indispensable equipment in the wafer manufacturing process.
The photolithography machine is only the most sophisticated equipment among them, and it is also the only equipment that is stuck in China. As for other equipment, it can be purchased in China.
Of course, Lin Xiao had placed an order for these things long ago, so these things can basically be shipped within a week.
While waiting for these things to be shipped, Lin Xiao finally revealed the answer to the mystery for them and took out the 5nm process chip technology of the X-ray lithography machine that he had redeemed, which shocked everyone in the X-ray plan.
Days later, it was not until a week later that all their equipment was available that they recovered.
Then, everyone was filled with excitement and began to learn the process proposed by Lin Xiao. A process includes many links, mainly photolithography and etching.
A silicon wafer requires repeated photolithography and etching many times to create the final product. After repeated photolithography and etching, the final complex integrated circuits can be formed.
And this process is the time to test the technology.
What makes TSMC better than Samsung is that the repetitive photolithography and etching process they designed is better than Samsung!
As for how powerful the technology Lin Xiao suggested, no one in the X-ray Project knows, but it is better than nothing.
So, time passed quietly again.
And perhaps by accident, or perhaps on purpose, news of the "secret conversation" between Lin Xiao and Warwick quietly leaked out.
Suddenly, the industry was in a state of excitement.
All kinds of strange news spread throughout the industry, and the core of each news is——
