Chapter 233: Su Yuanshan's Little Wish
Joint Research Center for Lithography Machines.
Su Yuanshan was called here directly by Zheng Zhenchuan's call to Ai Ai - in the phone, Zheng Zhenchuan just said that there was friction between the light source team and Lin Benjian's team in Silicon Valley.
At that time, Su Yuanshan was scared enough, went downstairs and grabbed a bicycle and rushed to the light source laboratory.
However, when he heard the so-called friction, he breathed a sigh of relief.
......
"It means that Lin Benjian said that according to his technical intuition, KBBF crystals cannot be used on DUV light sources?" Su Yuanshan looked at Zhao Kaidong and asked.
Zhao Kaidong was smoking cigarettes one by one and nodded: "Yes, but KBBF's frequency doubling technology has appeared abroad...... There has also been a breakthrough on our side. ”
Su Yuanshan pursed his lips and frowned deeply. He knows that KBBF is now exportable, and the state even provides ...... We want to share our technology with foreign countries.
"Is there an intuition on Lao Lin's side?"
"It's not...... Judging from the existing light source, the KBBF crystal is not enough to meet the continuous and high-power laser output of the lithography machine. Zhao Kaidong looked at Su Yuanshan: "But we believe ...... High power is definitely possible. ”
Su Yuanshan sighed softly: "Of course I also believe in ......"
Su Yuanshan knew that KBBF had not been used in lithography machines in later generations - or rather, to add a mainstream. At the beginning, he asked Zhao Kaidong to engage in KBBF, but he also had a fluke, hoping to complete a breakthrough from KBBF, so as to break the shackles of 193nm in one fell swoop, coupled with the immersion type, it will be easy to rely on DUV to go down to the 5nm process.
Now that he is directly opposed by Lin Benjian, an optical master, Su Yuanshan really doesn't know how to judge for a while.
But one thing he believes is that KBBF's technology will definitely be useful - learn about high-power lasers.
After pondering for a long time, Su Yuanshan said softly: "In this way, Lao Lin's team ...... This is because investment is limited, and policy factors must also be taken into account under extreme conditions. So we can't put our eggs in one basket, and we still walk on two legs. ”
"The school recruitment season is coming soon, and Yuanxin is also recruiting a group of graduate students engaged in optics to enter Yuanxin, and you should also apply to it. ”
Zhao Kaidong also sighed softly.
As a person engaged in technology, of course, he sees technology, and when he sees difficulties, he must break through. But he also knew that Su Yuanshan was in a dilemma, if KBBF really couldn't be used on the lithography machine in the end, then the money Su Yuanshan invested would really be wasted......
Yuanxin is an enterprise no matter how it is said, and it is not a good habit to engage in business when it is clear that there is a big man who proposes that this road is not working, rather than being cautious.
"Okay, let's walk on two legs. ”
"Well, then please Uncle Zhao. ”
Su Yuanshan said and turned back to Zheng Zhenchuan and said, "Uncle Zheng, how is the situation on your side?"
"We are very good here, the ordered parts have been approved, and it is estimated that they will be fully delivered within three months. Compared with Zhao Kaidong, Zheng Zhenchuan's mood is much better, and the lithography machine he designed here uses ultraviolet light, which can theoretically handle the 0.5 micron process.
Hearing this, Su Yuanshan's mood also improved a lot: "The first step of the Long March has come out. ”
"Well, that's the first step...... I don't want to be able to achieve mass production quality, I just want to be able to run stably. Zheng Zhenchuan said with a smile.
The lithography machine dragged by Yuanxin from Chengguang is indeed a bit difficult to explain. After continuous debugging, it was able to barely fulfill its mission of being able to build components on a 1-micron process.
But that's all there is to it, and it's a fantasy to make money from it.
Therefore, Zheng Zhenchuan's requirements are not high now, as long as it can be stable, and then the next one will start to strive for listing, and then the next one will strive to catch up with the mainstream.
Leaving the office, Su Yuanshan looked at the time, he was really embarrassed to talk to Lin Benjian, so he returned to the office and sent an email to Lin Benjian to ask about the situation.
The next day, Lin Benjian replied to the email with a lot of techniques and theories telling him that KBBF is a nonlinear deep ultraviolet crystal, which is very good...... And according to the existing technology, the volume of KBBF is not yet able to meet the needs of lithography machines. Therefore, it may not be the most suitable light source crystal for lithography machines.
So Su Yuanshan had no choice but to tell him to let him follow his own thinking.
(According to ASML's engineers, KBBF does not match the light source of the lithography machine.) In fact, I mainly want to be rigorous when I write this paragraph...... )
......
May passed quickly.
In this month, Duan Yongping began to officially lead the promotion of Yuanxin mobile phones, and it was the kind of promotion that seemed to be calm, but in fact it was a turbulent undertide.
He first applied for the Vidoo trademark brand, and then invited the popular international movie star Schwarzenegger to endorse the phone - these are all first actions.
You know, Vidoo has just finished finalizing, and even the engineering machine has not yet been able to come out.
At the same time, he has been watching the factory, and has solved many production problems with the technicians he brought over, so that the efficiency of the production line can be improved.
It can be said that this person is really a talent.
Then, Professor Su Xinghe, who had been waiting for a long time, finally waited for an invitation from the capital.
The Chinese Academy of Sciences has been officially approved by the National Academy of Sciences to establish a new National Academy of Engineering, and Professor Su Xinghe is the only "new" academician of the Academy of Engineering.
It should be noted here that in later generations, some people generally believed that the Chinese Academy of Sciences was more advanced than the Academy of Engineering...... If we look at it purely from the date of establishment, this is indeed the case. But in fact, the selection rules of the Chinese Academy of Sciences are too strict, so it is particularly unfair to engineers who have made great contributions to engineering.
In this case, a group of people with lofty ideals in the Chinese Academy of Sciences have been running for the end of the 80s, hoping to establish an engineering academy, and the academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering are mainly engineers.
It's a reward.
Moreover, in order not to make people feel that the "grade" of the Academy of Engineering is low, the first academicians of the Academy of Engineering are all from the big men of science!
As a result, there are more than 30 "academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences", who are both academicians of the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering, not for "more glory", but entirely for the purpose of establishing the "forced qualifications" of the Academy of Engineering.
And Professor Su Xinghe was able to enter the first class of groundbreaking academicians of the Academy of Engineering, which shows that he ...... He actually qualified to enter the Academy of Sciences.
But because his major is in the direction of integrated circuits, he was "deprived" of the "glory" of an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and gave him the glory of the first batch of academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering.
For Su Xinghe, he is already very satisfied to be able to be juxtaposed with so many seniors and even idols.
Su Yuanshan was also very satisfied......
However, Su Yuanshan also has a small wish......
He also wanted to be an academician.
