#17 - China Built Its Own EUV Scanner. But Can It Work?
Published 10 Aug 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] The current generates a magnetic field, crushing the vapor into plasma that's incredibly hot and dense. We are talking hundreds of thousands of degrees. And that plasma emits 13.5 nanometer UV light. Same light, but radically different engineering with some compelling advantages. No giant CO2 laser. No need to hit 50,000 moving droplets every second, which means way higher chances to hit the target. So it's potentially way more efficient and mechanically simpler machine. So why didn't ASML build the EV machine this way? Well, 20 years ago they actually tried. The challenge wasn't creating UV light, it was creating enough of it. […]
