Abstract
The article discusses on the extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) lithography to be introduced in the semiconductor chip manufacturing. It describes the characteristics of EUVs including easy absorption by air, optical elements needed to be reflective, and need for a bright light source. It states that the technology could become an alternative solution for the sub-13.5-nm lithography.
