SPIE Advanced Lithography and Synopsys!

SPIE Advanced Lithography and Synopsys!
by Daniel Nenni on 02-01-2017 at 7:00 am

SPIE is the premier event for lithography held in Silicon Valley and again Scotten Jones and I will be attending. EUV is generally the star of the show and this year will be no different now that TSMC has committed to EUV production in 2019.

Last year at SPIE, TSMC presented the history of EUV development from the beginning in 1985 as Soft X-Ray to the name change to EUV in 1993. TSMC forecasted that they will “exercise” EUV at 7nm and will introduce EUV for production use at 5nm. TSMC now says they will in fact insert EUV into 7nm in the second year of production (2019) in preparation for EUV at 5nm in 2020. So finally we will have EUV in production after more than 30 years of R&D and so many false starts!!!!!

This year Intel will again keynote SPIE and present “EUV readiness for HVM” and Samsung will again present “Progress in EUV Lithography toward manufacturing”. Scott will do thorough blogs on the conference as he has in the past. You can read Scott’s very technical event related blogs HERE. If you are attending SPIE it would be a pleasure to meet you, absolutely.


A new event at this year’s SPIE is the Synopsys Technical Forum where you will learn the latest on Synopsys Manufacturing’s mask synthesis, mask data prep and lithography simulation solutions. The Tech Forum is peer-to-peer, giving you the opportunity to hear how your lithography colleagues have addressed the challenges of 10nm and 7nm.

Overview

Synopsys provides industry-proven EDA solutions to meet the demands of today’s advanced IC manufacturing processes while setting the standard in platform flexibility to enable innovative and custom solutions for next-generation technology nodes. Synopsys’ comprehensive Mask Synthesis, Mask Data Preparation, TCAD, and Yield Management tools provide leading edge performance, accuracy, quality, and cost of ownership for all your production and development needs.
