UT Austin Shrinks Semiconductor Printing to Research Scale

UT Austin researchers have developed a more accessible method for semiconductor printing that scales down Extreme Ultraviolet lithography technology for research purposes. This breakthrough could enable more universities and institutions to conduct meaningful semiconductor research without the prohibitive costs of commercial-scale manufacturing equipment.

Semiconductor manufacturing sits at the foundation of modern electronics, yet the barrier to entry is so extreme that meaningful research remains out of reach for most institutions. Extreme Ultraviolet lithography, the dominant technology for printing circuits onto silicon, relies on machines…
