Technology company, I will become the light of China!

Chapter 65: Lithography factory, chip initially closed loop!
Is this a red talent in lithography?
Chen Xing couldn't believe it!

Although his reason told him not to judge people by their appearance, this guy's image was too "street kid", right?
American spiked yellow hair style, tight ripped jeans, if paired with a will-o'-the-wisp, he would be a spirited young man standing at attention.

"oi!"

The moment Lin Tian saw Chen Xing, he said hello from a distance.

Passengers exiting the station behind him saw the energetic young man's dress and hairstyle, subconsciously distanced themselves a few steps away, and looked at Chen Xing with strange eyes.

It's like saying...

What's the matter with this?
Facing the strange eyes, Chen Xing stepped forward to greet him: "Welcome back to China, Lin Tian, ​​right? Let's go back to the car and talk."

"and many more."

Lin Tian shook his head and asked, "President, do you have a lithography machine?"

"Not yet."

"That means no more. You can advance my salary for one month and come back to me when you have a photolithography machine."

"You shouldn't make..."

Before Chen Xing finished speaking, Lin Tian chuckled and said, "Mr. President, you don't think I can rub the photolithography machine for you, do you?"

"This... seems to be what you said..."

As far as photolithography machines are concerned, no country in the world can manufacture them alone, not even the United States.

It is currently the most precise instrument that humans can make. Before its birth, who would have thought that sand could be turned into chips, and who would have thought that a chip of 100 square millimeters could depict transistor circuits on the order of tens of billions?

Lithography machines and chips have always been considered to be products of alien civilization.

Hand rubbing lithography machine?
That is basically unrealistic!

Chen Xing did not force anyone to make things difficult, but changed the question: "I've heard of lithography machines. What is a lithography factory?"

He noticed that Lin Tian's main area of ​​expertise was also marked by a photolithography factory.

He had never heard of a photolithography factory.

Speaking of the photolithography factory, Lin Tian's eyes suddenly lit up and he said with interest: "You said the photolithography factory, that is a backup plan for photolithography. It is my theoretical conjecture to bypass the photolithography machine to produce chips."

"Bypassing the photolithography machine to produce chips?"

Chen Xing couldn't help but be stunned, this simply overturned his cognition.

You know, from the birth of mankind's first chip, the lithography machine has been highly bound to the chip.

Without a photolithography machine, you cannot create a chip. The concept that a chip is the product of a photolithography machine is already a recognized truth.

Bypass it?
How to make a chip?
Lin Tian seemed to see Chen Xing's doubts and said casually: "To put it bluntly, the lithography machine uses extreme ultraviolet light to project the circuit pattern of the mask onto the silicon wafer. Solving the light source problem is the same as solving the lithography problem." Got the chance?"

This guy has a point!
Chen Xing was finally sure that this was the red talent he was waiting for.

If the photolithography problem can be solved, then Longxing Technology's chip manufacturing may really be able to achieve a preliminary closed loop.

Currently, the instruction set uses open source RISC-V. Open source means that companies around the world can use it for free, and there is no technology patent blockade or blackmail.

The EDA software is self-developed by Longguo, with seven academicians in charge. It is impossible for one to restrict oneself, right?

In the final step, chip lithography, as Lin Tian said, no matter what method is used, as long as extreme ultraviolet light is solved, it is equivalent to solving the lithography machine.

Because the photolithography machine only has one function: to provide a stable extreme ultraviolet light source!

Once these three steps of EDA software, chip design, and chip manufacturing can all be domestically produced, it will definitely shock the world and make the gangsters in the West feel scared.Chen Xingchang thought about the day of closing the loop, while Lin Tianze continued to explain his photolithography factory:
"We can't build a photolithography machine anymore. It combines the top technologies of dozens of countries, and the components have high precision and are small in size. It's too difficult to replicate them one-to-one."

"Since we can't make it, let's bypass it and build a photolithography factory directly!"

"Since it's a factory, the parts must be a few hundred million points in size. In the past, our domestic factory equipment may not be precise enough to manufacture parts the size of a fingernail, so fist-sized parts can be used, right? If not, basketball-sized parts can be used. Alright?"

"The demand for manufacturing precision of parts has decreased, which makes it easier to overcome. Then, we need to solve extreme ultraviolet light."

"According to Maxwell's equations, electrons will emit electromagnetic waves as long as they accelerate. When the electrons are restrained by a magnetic field in the accelerator, they will make the electrons rotate in circles in the ring memory to form accelerated motions and radiate electromagnetic waves. To put it simply, you want To emit extreme ultraviolet light, as long as the electron's acceleration is large enough and the energy is high enough."

"Does the president understand?"

Chen Xing took a deep breath and responded calmly: "I understand roughly. You bypass all the precision parts of the lithography machine and just deal with extreme ultraviolet light, right?"

Lin Tian's eyes flashed with surprise, and he gave a thumbs up and praised: "The CEO is awesome, he actually understood it so quickly. As I said before, the lithography machine is simply a device that emits extreme ultraviolet light. We just need to solve it." Extreme ultraviolet light is equivalent to solving the problem of photolithography machines."

Chen Xing was amazed by the idea of ​​abandoning the photolithography machine and rebuilding the photolithography factory.

This is equivalent to a fantasy novel. In the past, the way to become a god was to practice Qi, but there happened to be a fool who chose to practice physical training and became a god in the flesh, and took a different path.

But whether practicing Qi or physical training, becoming an immortal is the ultimate goal.

In the same way, the lithography machine is to emit extreme ultraviolet light, and the lithography factory is also to emit extreme ultraviolet light. You use various small and sophisticated instruments. I directly use the accelerator magnetic confinement. Although the process is different, the purpose is the same. That’s it!

Chen Xing was shocked by his idea and couldn't help but ask: "You just mentioned the accelerator, which means that our photolithography factory needs to buy an accelerator for you, right?"

"More than that, I'll give you a list later. Let's prepare a billion dollars first."

Lin Tian smiled lightly.

Chen Xing: "..."

Billion!

This is killing him!
He only made a few bucks after working hard to sell mobile phones. When this guy opened his mouth, he prepared one billion first. Those who didn't know better thought he was talking about Zimbabwe dollars?
"No money?"

Lin Tian chuckled, stretched out his hand and said, "Since the president doesn't have the money to build a factory, then give me a month's salary in advance, and I'll go indulge in it first, and then call me when you have the conditions."

Chen Xing did not speak, but missed Gao Zhengqian in the chip laboratory.

How come there are two red talents, one is as reliable as a towering tree, and the other is like a local gangster?

"Why don't you say anything, CEO? One month's salary is not enough, half a month's salary is enough, [-], [-] is enough, right?"

Lin Tian was still chattering, thinking about using money to be cool.

Faced with the salary advance for the red-quality talents he selected, what else can Chen Xing do? Those who can be satisfied will definitely be satisfied.

He took out a bank card and handed it to Lin Tiandao: "There are 500 million in the card, and the password is six eights. Save some money. If the company needs it, you have to rush back immediately."

"Don't worry, just add WeChat first."

Lin Tian took the bank card, added Chen Xing's WeChat account, then waved his hand and said, "Let's go, CEO, please give me news if you have anything."

"Well, let's go."

Looking at the departing figure, Chen Xing still couldn't believe that this guy was actually a red-quality talent.

Chen Xing sighed, shook his head helplessly and murmured: "Sure enough, people cannot be judged by their appearance, and sea water cannot be measured."
