Someone watches asianometry here, or at least you should watch his channel if you're interested in the chipmaking process. He has a great video on zeiss and their mirrors. He also goes in much greater depth on EUV and other technologies in the process.

@@dreckman69 yep i've subscribed to it and watched most of the documentaries but i still think we need a few more videos on Zeiss. Content related to it is pretty much scarce.

Like most things that "can't be copied", you can be sure the chinese are working on it.

@@RetroJack they are trying for decades now. They've tried to make an exact copy of the ones they have, but it didn't work. And the chinees are experts in copying stuff ;-)

that is the theory. In Practice to do it is a completely different story. My PhD Thesis in antiferromagnetic domains studied by PEEM using synchrotron light was based on one sample. I have produced 70. But all but one were completely useless. I new the exact conditions how it was produced. Or did I? that is the difference between theoretically knowing how to do something and actually doing it. Working on a production line does not make you an expert in the technology.

Brainport. If anything we should appreciate as dutchies is the way this country provides incredibly efficient and advanced hubs.

Interesting, it is the Belgium research facility called IMEC that has pushed ASML to the company it is today and their partnership since 1991. ASML builds the machines but the knowledge and tools are done by IMEC.

IMO, it’s actually the EUV laser because the design of such was incredibly difficult due to the possibility of liquid tin explosions fowling optics.

@@12time12 isn't laser would require lenses?

@@gurbanguliberdimuhamedov4228 yes, but there are lense manufacturers in Japan and the US who can develop similar lenses. That doesn’t take away from the incredible Zeiss lenses. The laser was easily the most difficult part of EUV, there is very little room for error. I encourage you to watch the Asianometry video about EUV, he gives a quick explainer. If you want more in-depth discussion then Google scholar has the best work.

The EUV systems dont use lenses, becaus most of the euv light would be absorbed that way. Instead they use hightech mirrors

@@12time12 , incorrect, you don't know what you're talking about. There aren't anyone that's able to build perfect on an atomic scale mirrors like Zeiss does. These mirrors are grown in labs for half a year, and if something goes wrong you lose basically twice as much money while growing it, it's a risky business so no one attempted it other than Zeiss thanks to their partnership with ASML. Edit: apparently the person I answered deleted the comment in question. Originally, the comment I answered was something in the lines "Anyway, there are countries like Japan that can manufacture such mirrors".

@@tiemen9095 nah, not the whole country, but a huge part of the world. I work in California and ASML has a huge stamp here as well.

You got paid though right???

We got paid for the work we'd done, and got paid statutory redundancy, but that wasn't much of a consolation without a job. Our customer contracted another company to finish off the project, who then hired all of the team, except me. They were more interested in the hardware than the software, and my software was mostly waiting on the hardware anyway. Since I wasn't there, I don't know the full details of what happened in the years after, but my understanding is that the customer invested the same amount of money again, but the project was still cancelled due to budget overruns before it was completed. If they'd paid us what we originally told them it would cost, rather than trying to cut costs, the project would have been much more likely to succeed, and the once world leading company would still be probably still be making those machine today, having had a decades head start on ASML.

What, you mean refrigerator that can't even run skyrim? Pathetic!

@Trevor Phillips chips are not making your refrigerator more efficient, its only make it spy on you, and spying cost electrical energy.

They didn’t, that’s why the micro chips are important.

@@henryh95 Both did and didn't. Refrigerators did perfectly fine and were no less efficient. All the efficiency comes from how well insulated it is. No microchip management needed. Cars on the other hand...

What's different is, when the old machines broke, you could fix them. Now we throw them away and buy another one. 51% of Americans buy a new smartphone every year. Lots of money changing hands.

False. The first lithography techniques were developed in the USA. Japan miniaturized chip PCBs into microchips, but the most advanced lithography techniques are developed inhouse in ASML's labs. Furthermore the founder of the first lithography machines, Philips, droped what was linked to that business long ago since they were a multirole company, from home appliances to medical machines, and what's important is what came after, which no one is able to copy even after a decade - the EUV machines every silicon foundries use to make the chip in your phone. Next step will be X-Ray lithography and this will imply using even harder to work with materials and ingenuity in building X-Ray "mirrors".

This is the whole puzzle without missing a part.

I'm sure the market is too small to justify a second company. It's actually quite common for a company to be the sole manufacturer of a machine when they are custom-made and only a very few are ordered each year.

China also lacks the metalurgy to do some things aswell, i can almost guarantee theres reasons why the old models wernt just improved. I guess the question could even be “what needs improving?” Because without learning how to get to where the machine is now, but not sure where it was generations before, you cant see the full thought process, and on top of that, your looking to improve the whole system which could be endless in decision making and trade offs.

I believe that even if they copy it, the machine would soon be out of date because constant updates and upgrades are made. It can really only be made by people who know exactly what they are doing. It would really require many years of planning, training and investing before they have the people that can succesfully operate such a company. Eindhoven has been a technology center for more than a century driven by Philips and it has its own Tech University. They invented things like the Cassette Tape, CD Player (together with Sony) and even the DVD. You cant just copy a culture like that.

China does not have TALENTED ENGINEERS!

asml has hundreds of suppliers that are at the top tech of their fields, most of the 100k parts come from outside the company
