I am waiting for yields reached 100% due to musk watching the line and yield dropped when he stopped watching them.

With Elon's entry, I wonder if this culture would be altered.

Dan, you should be so thankful that 99.99% of the mainstream financial press knows practically nothing about the semiconductor industry...

In mid-2024, TSMC apparently indicated that they prioritized throughput over curing stochastics. TSMC "optimized the EUV exposure dose...

There are a lot of SPIE litho papers on this - in particular on resists and how they've helped keep dose under control. I think TSMC has...

TSMC obviously - but these issues with stochastics are not new. It was covered in depth in the 2022 IRDS Lithography roadmap...

My pet apocalyptic scenario is some unfathomable aging mechanism in sub-2nm devices causes a massive chip casualty event that brings...
