Chapter 457 How long have you been planning this?
When the two heard Chen Yang's words, they were silent again!
They wanted to persuade Chen Yang to take a break, but when they thought of the 1-nanometer chip, the two were silent again!
At present, chips are the lifeline. Every year, the high-end chips imported by Longguo exceed 300 billion meters of gold. In addition to these, there are other products due to chip restrictions. These alone are enough to reach trillions of dollars!
And every minute that delays, the market in Long Kingdom is eroded by them!
"We won't say much extra words. We can only wish you success. If you have anything you need to do, you must tell us and let us do something too!" Minister He said.
"There are quite a lot of things! We will definitely not use so many of them when we produce twenty units at once!
Let’s leave ten units ourselves, and sell the other ten units. Take a chance to occupy a wave of market first. Next, we will produce more. As for how much each unit sells, it depends on your pricing!" Chen Yang said to the two.
"Sell it?" The two of them were a little unexpected!
They have always been looking for high-end things like this everywhere, and there is no reason to take out.
"In terms of performance and quality, we absolutely pass the test. The production capacity efficiency is definitely 50% higher than the existing Asmi." Chen Yang said confidently.
"Okay! I'll feel relieved if you say this! Let's sell these as soon as possible!" Minister He said with a smile.
He now trusts Chen Yang's words very much!
After finishing the conversation with the two, Chen Yang returned to the office again, started the design of the new chip, and assigned some of the work to Zhang Zhenxing.
Seeing some of the plans distributed by Chen Yang, Zhang Zhenxing couldn't help but walk up and expressed his doubts.
"Professor Chen, isn't it a bit radical for us to build 1nm chips now? According to the current theory, if silicon chips are less than 2nm, they will directly "lead" electrons will pass directly through the gate, and they will no longer be able to realize the function of "switch". If they lose the characteristics of the diode, they will theoretically not be able to be made." Zhang Zhenxing said to Chen Yang.
"This is indeed a technical problem, but it will not become the limit of silicon-based chips. 10 years ago, it was said that the limit of silicon-based chips was 68 nanometers, 5 years ago, it was said that the limit of silicon-based chips was 22 nanometers, 3 years ago, it was said that the limit of silicon-based chips was 10 nanometers, before it was said that it was 7 nanometers, 5 nanometers, and now it is said that it is 2 nanometers.
These are just speculations!
Regarding the gate breakdown problem faced by 1 nanometer, we can change the gate structure, from the original three-dimensional or fin-shaped structure to become a sphere! or a hemisphere! In the sphere or hemisphere structure, different substances are used, which seem to be two channels, but in fact four channels, which can effectively block the passage of electrons, but these increased channels do not significantly increase the transmission distance of electrons!"
"If this happens, wouldn't it increase a lot of energy consumption?" Zhang Zhenxing asked Chen Yang again.
Just the three-bit three-dimensional gate has increased a lot of energy consumption, which is very reflected in mobile phones!
Although the latest 5-nanometer chip designed not long ago is known as 5-nanometer, its actual computing performance has not been improved much, and its power consumption is several times that of the original! The most intuitive experience is that when using the mobile phone, it is extremely hot due to excessive power consumption, and it can even be used as a hand warmer!"
"This problem is raised to a point, but we have solved it."
Then he handed over a test report.
"This is the experiment we just did. We use spherical gates to replace the current fishfin gates. Moreover, using multi-point pressurization, a 1-nanometer process can be achieved, the number of transistors can reach 20 billion, and the computing speed can be increased by more than 60% compared to the 5-nanometer one, but the power consumption is saved by 30%.
Zhang Zhenxing immediately picked up the report on the table, and after reading it, he looked shocked!
"Two-dimensional single crystal graphene material? 140 vitreous meters?" Zhang Zhenxing said.ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ
"Yes, the thickness of the two-dimensional single crystal graphene material is almost negligible, and the bond length is 142 picometers. Because it belongs to the same group as silicon element, it has a good fit with single crystal silicon with a purity of 20 nickels, because its conductivity just reduces resistance, compensates for the heating problem of silicon, and can improve the running speed."
"However, in this way, the intensity of ultraviolet light increases exponentially, and because of the optical properties of carbon, it is absorbed more. Can the original laser light source meet the requirements?"
Hearing Zhang Zhenxing's words, Chen Yang couldn't help but sigh that he is a chip researcher, and the questions he asked were all pointed out!
"To enable high-intensity lithography, we use the ultimate ultraviolet light with shorter wavelengths and more "sharp"."
"What? Ultimate UV Light?" Zhang Zhenxing looked puzzled.
"That's right. The wavelength range of ultraviolet light is between 10-216 nanometers. The light source used before was 197 nanometers deep ultraviolet light. Now the lithography machines use 13.5 nanometer extreme ultraviolet light sources, but that's not enough. The ultimate ultraviolet light we use is the ultimate 10-nanometer ultraviolet light."
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Zhang Zhenxing blurted out.
"Now, using laser to bombard tin droplets to obtain extreme ultraviolet light of 13,5 nanometers has reached its limit, and the power consumption has reached an amazing degree of terrifying. If you want to obtain the ultimate ultraviolet light with a shorter wavelength and greater intensity, then the power consumption is much higher than what you are now! Moreover, it is also required to reach an outrageous level of optical mask emitters, and these... are all..."
"It has been broken through! Didn't you find that our chip factory is built next to the Heilong base? When the controllable nuclear fusion power station is running, the power is not a problem at all."
"As for the optical mask with higher requirements, look at this." After saying that, Chen Yang sent a sample to Zhang Zhenxing.
"This is a mask with a flatness of ±10 picometers that we use to grind under a mustard scanning microscope and dynamic chemical method. It is equivalent to glass as large as a Pacific Ocean. The concave and convex error is less than 10 picometers! It can greatly reflect the ultimate ultraviolet light, but it can absorb all other light!"
Hearing this, Zhang Zhenxing was shocked!
Looking at those things, I realized after a while!
"You really have all of these technologies broken through?"
How many technological innovations do you need? How many innovative achievements do you need?
Light source, gate structure, optical mask...anything is a major breakthrough, and it was all done by Professor Chen alone?
"Or what? Otherwise, we don't have to make a lithography machine with a 1-nanometer process point." Chen Yang said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll send all these tasks right away, and I'll guarantee that within one week! No! Three days! I'll hand you the results within three days."
"Okay! Thank you for your hard work!"
Chapter completed!
