Of course, it's useless for these people to itch in their hearts at this time, after all, this information still belongs to others, and the only thing they can do is to continue to study.

This is followed by the collection of radiant energy from EUV light sources.

Due to the extremely short wavelength of radiation from the EUV light source, the absorption of substances is very strong, so it is completely impossible to use the previous transmission optical system to collect radiation, so this is indeed a major difficulty of EUV lithography technology, but the grazing incidence light source collection system they developed has basically solved this problem.

Next, when studying the scheme given in this data, Nikon's researchers now give a plan that is very similar to their research, but it is more complete. Some small details can better solve the optical problem of this system in the short wavelength of the EUV light source.

This undoubtedly gave them new ideas and inspiration. But just when they even forgot about the passage of time, and saw the most critical place with relish while constantly discussing, Nima, these energy tolerances were once again directly covered up!

That's right, just when the most critical and exciting time is the most exciting, there are only rows of uneven thick black bars left on the data! All the important content is buried under the black bar! This is really - what a cheat!

For these researchers, this is like an elderly man, who was finally aroused by a wolf-like woman, and the two of them thundered to the most critical time, the woman pushed the man away, put on his pants and prepared to leave, which was unacceptable! I've been toyed with like this a few times, and there's a possibility that I'll get impotent.

Someone even wanted to pull out a coin. It's good to scrape off the places where the thick black bars have been hidden. But this is not a lottery after all, and the monitor is a public finance. If it is scratched, it will be compensated, which makes the group stop their resentment.

However, this also makes many people know that the next part of this material may be more exciting. It's more valuable, but I don't want to continue researching. This is too tricky, every time I move the knife in the most critical part, don't bring such a playful person, right?

Of course, this kind of affection can only be complained about in the heart. After all, everyone is working, so naturally you can't just take the burden away, but then again, aside from the fact that the key points of the data were rudely crossed out, this information is also very attractive to these researchers, at least it can open up ideas for them, right?

Next, how to increase the intensity of the light source and other issues are discussed in detail. Even at the end of the document, a flawless solution to the mask template is given, and of course the most critical parts are also masked.

However, even so, no one dares to underestimate Tianshu Technology, or the Huaxia Lithography Machine Research Process represented by Tianshu Technology. However, after browsing and discussing these materials with the researchers, Tatsu Yamaguchi didn't understand what kind of medicine Wang Zhengyu was selling.

With these technologies, Tianshu Technology seems to be fully capable of producing its own lithography equipment. Although the key parts of the new EUV lithography technology have been hidden, it is impossible for him to judge whether the data has really completely solved these difficulties. However, the production of the 193nm immersive lithography technology that is available today is completely free of any technical obstacles. Why did he specifically find Nikon to buy lithography equipment? This person must be bored enough to come to Hijima to tease Nikon, right?

Thinking of the meeting not long ago, he seemed to have excitedly mocked the young man opposite for thinking too simple about lithography technology, and now it seems that it is not that he thinks about lithography technology too simply, but that he thinks about him too simply.

The shock of the two documents and the doubts in his mind were added. Even Tatsu Yamaguchi lost track of time. He didn't even realize that he had been in the research department for sixteen hours, and it was already early the next morning.

"Mr. Yamaguchi, the analysis report on the two materials has come out. Let's see if it's time for everyone to go back and rest. After staying up all night, everyone was tired. The person in charge of the laboratory, Fujita Motoichi, opened his mouth and handed a sorted out document to Tatsuya Yamaguchi, who was sitting on the sand.

"Oh? It's been all night? What time is it? Tatsuya Yamaguchi came back to his senses from his contemplation. He asked.

"It's already eight o'clock in the morning? Oh, it's been a long time since time has passed so quickly. Tatsuya Yamaguchi sighed, and then said, "Okay." Let them all go to rest. But Mr. Fujita, I'm afraid you'll have to take a break. I'll come with me to today's board meeting to make a presentation. ”

"No problem. Wait for me to arrange today's work first, and we can come out at any time after the arrangement! Fujita nodded in agreement.

"Okay. Hurry up, the board will start at nine o'clock. Trouble Mr. Fujita! Tatsuya Yamaguchi nodded.

After Fujita finished his work in the research department and the two took a break, Tatsuya Yamaguchi took Fujita Motoichi to Michiro Kantana's office first, and briefly made a brief report on the research results of the two materials with Michiro Kanya.

"What? What do you mean is that with those two pieces of information, you can judge that the Chinese people are not lagging behind us at all in lithography technology? After listening to the report, Michiro Kantani was quite shocked, and it seemed that the whole person was not very good.

This is understandable, in fact, who among the researchers, including Tatsuya Yamaguchi, is not shocked? It's nothing more than that they are studying the material step by step, and half of their minds are attracted by the content of the material, and the other half of their shock is a gradual upward process, like boiling a frog in warm water, so it is not like Michiro Kantani who is so out of shape after hearing the results directly.

"Actually, not falling behind is already the most optimistic estimate. If the key parts that have been crossed out in the second material can really solve the problem, it can show that the research of the Chinese people in EUV lithography technology has passed us! Fujita said with the usual rigorous posture of a technical person.

"Have you ever had us?" Michiro Kantani said astringently, "Are you saying that it is very likely that Tianshu Technology's lithography machine manufacturing technology has passed us?" So what exactly does that young man mean by coming to Nikon specifically to buy our S62OD? ”

"Or as he said, he just doesn't want to waste that time, it seems that there is only this explanation!" Tatsuya Yamaguchi spread his hands and said.

Michiro Kantani closed his eyes and was silent for a moment, and after steadying his mind, he opened his eyes and said: "Then in fact, he only needs to give us the information of 193nm immersive lithography technology to impress us, why do you want to give us a second information, have you thought about it?" ”

"Huh?" Tatsuya Yamaguchi was stunned when he heard this, or he had been shocked by the technology contained in the two documents, and his head became sluggish after a night of sleep, he really didn't think about this problem, and only after a moment did he hesitate to ask, "What do you mean?" ”

Michiro Kantani did not directly answer Tatsuya Yamaguchi's question, but turned to Motoichi Fujita and asked: "Mr. Fujita, please give us a professional judgment, how much help are the key parts of the second technical information you just described about the difficulties of EUV lithography technology in the current research process of our EUV lithography technology?" Or how valuable is the full version of this document to us at Nikon? ”

Michiro Kantani's question made Fujita Motoichi hesitate for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, he replied carefully: "Because the key part is hidden, I can't answer this answer in the affirmative." But that material basically touches on all the technical difficulties of EUV lithography, and many of them are bothering us. If the key parts of that document are really perfect for solving these problems, then I can only say that with the full version of this material, our new EUV lithography machine will be produced in as little as three months. ”

Saying this, Fujita Yuan paused, thought for a moment, and then continued: "However, based on the previous content of the information, I think those hidden parts may really be the key to the solution. And solving these difficulties involves at least hundreds of technologies that have not yet been patented, and if we turn these technologies into our patents before ASML, you should understand what Nikon thinks. And given the breakthrough of EUV lithography technology, which has greatly promoted the microelectronics industry, I really can't estimate the value of the full version of this information. ”

"Alright! I understand! Michiro Kantani raised his hand and pressed his temple, stood up and said, "It's almost time, and today's board of directors is about to start, so come with me." Mr. Monichi Fujita, I would like you to make a presentation at the board meeting, and after the report, I will tell you about your current analysis to the directors. ”

"Okay, President Kanya!" Fujita Motokazu nodded and said.

An hour later, Fujita presented the results of his all-night study to the board of directors at a meeting of Nikon's board of directors, and at the same time, according to Michiro Kanya's instructions, he re-reported his judgment on the value of this material to Nikon.

When Fujita Motoichi's report was completed, the entire conference room was silent for a moment, and then it began to boil, except for Michiro Kantani, who had already received the news, and Tatsuya Yamaguchi, who participated in the data analysis, who could maintain a relatively calm look, the other directors were naturally all kinds of doubts and shocks.

After all, Nikon, as one of only two companies in the world that can produce high-end lithography equipment, has always been an unbreakable leader in the industry. Now a Chinese company suddenly popped up, and it actually has more advanced technology than them, is this sure not an April Fool's joke?

If it weren't for Motoichi Fujita's engineer in Nikon's EUV lithography equipment, I'm afraid there would have been people who scolded him directly. (To be continued!)
