A promotional fly-through of ASML's TWINSCAN EXE High NA EUV lithography machine, showing its internal optics and chipmaking capabilities.

Step into the future of advanced chipmaking with our High NA EUV platform: the TWINSCAN EXE. Committed to keep powering technology forward, together with our ecosystem, we're innovating lithography to improve the performance, functionality and energy efficiency of tomorrow's chip technology. Featuring advanced anamorphic optics and significantly faster stages, the TWINSCAN EXE platform supports 8-nanometer resolution and improves imaging contrast by 40% (compared to NXE), while delivering high productivity, lower costs and fewer defects in chip manufacturing. The EXE sets new benchmarks for transistor density and chip performance to enable multiple future nodes in logic and memory.

On “US startup Substrate announces chipmaking tool that it says will rival ASML”

LOL, I recommend highly to everyone who thinks a startup can challenge ASML this 1.38min video: link to this video Its an industrial flight video through a ASML TWIN Exe HighNAV. Here is also a presentation of ~45min at CCC / Germany (in English language) which I highly recommend to watch: link Especially the explanation how they use two milisecond laser shots to first molt the tin and then distribute it symetrically(!!!) with a second shot across the surface. There IS NO chance that this startup will be able to somehow compete, if even Chinese state actors cant do it (yet).

On “China's chip capabilities just 3 years behind TSMC, teardown shows”

I just found this one. link to this video Edit: I didn't realize that the droplets are hit twice by different lasers. link

On “ASML Twinscan EXE:5000 Lego Set”

Fly-through promotional render of the real thing: link to this video Incredible technology - the light-source works by generating droplets of molten tin, firing them through a chamber at around (IIRC) 200mph, and hitting each droplet with two laser pulses... at 50kHz. How they achieve that using Lego is beyond me.

On “Dutch Align with US Export Controls on Some ASML Chip Tools”

…cy, but again and again in exactly the same place after removing and returning the wafer. Oh, and the wafer stage is pretty fun too; it uses an electrostatic chuck that induces a charge in the wafer and therefore holds it firmly in place without needing any kind of suction that could distort the wafer. Promotional fly through video from ASML here: link to this video Asianometry video about the stage: link Another short video about the light source: link…
