Beaten, bruised, and a bit smarter than it was on opening day, the old buck slowly moves from his bed. The sun just set, but he’s not anywhere close to a big field yet. Keeping it in low gear, the ...

When I first began working on double-patterning (DP) tools back in late 2010, there was already talk that it might be a fruitless, or at a minimum, very short-lived project, as extreme ultraviolet ...

Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography finally is moving into production, but foundry customers now must decide whether to implement their designs using EUV-based single patterning at 7nm, or whether ...

Neural activity in the spinal cord enables an animal to sense and respond to stimuli from internal organs and external sensory structures. Broadly speaking, neurons in the ventral half of the spinal ...

Double patterning is a class of technologies developed for photolithography to enhance the feature density of computer chips. The resolution of a photoresist pattern begins to blur at around 45 nm ...

Self-aligned lithographic process techniques are playing an increasingly important role in advanced technology nodes. Even with the growing use of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography, ...

Researchers have introduced a novel technique that allows for the direct patterning of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor materials onto substrates without the need for complex processes. The ...

Background Precise and accurate field methods for body composition analyses in athletes are needed urgently. Aim Standardisation of a novel ultrasound (US) technique for accurate and reliable ...
