Intel Will Use Immersion Lithography to 11 nanometers, EUV litho is late, Junctionless Transistor Will Simplify 10 nanometer Work

1. EETimes reports that Intel will be able to extend 193 nm immersion lithography to 11 nanometers, as Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) lithography is late again Intel hoped to use EUV at 22-nm, which is due out in 2011. The problem is that EUV will not be ready in time for 22- or 15-nm in production–at …

Trihydrides Appear to be a More Promising Path to Superconducting Metallic Hydrogen

High-pressure researchers, including Carnegie’s Ho-kwang (Dave) Mao, have now modeled three hydrogen-dense metal alloys and found there are pressure and temperature trends associated with the superconducting state—a huge boost in the understanding of how this abundant material could be harnessed. Computer modeling indicates that superconductivity for trihydrides (Hydrogen compounds with 3 hydrogens) set in at …
