The Technology Tree of Xueba

Chapter 37: Etching machine difficulties

On June 5th, Zhou Yu came to a construction site in Daxing District of Yanjing. The plant under construction is Xinghuo's graphene chip plant.

The building next to it has been completed. It looks grey and has a simple appearance. The 12-story small building is the R & D center laboratory.

厂房 These workshops are assembled using prefabricated modules. The construction speed is very fast. The outer wall of the R & D center is sprayed with a layer of protective paint on the cement surface.

Yuan Keqing led Zhou Yu to visit the construction site, and also invited the contribution: "Zhou, see if my suggestion is good. Directly building a house with prefabricated modules can save 90% of time.

外面 The exterior of the house can be painted directly, and the interior can be covered with wallpaper. People can go directly to work without affecting health.

This is a laboratory, not a house you live in, so you don't need to finish it. "

"Your idea has always been very positive, and I am satisfied with the speed of construction here.

I saw that most of the houses in the chip factory have been closed. In another week or so, they should all be completed. Zhou Yu said with satisfaction.

"As long as there is sufficient funds in Huaxia, these construction companies can complete the construction for you with the quality and quantity. If it is an ordinary prefabricated module factory building, it can be built already.

芯片 Our chip factory has some high requirements. It needs to be built into a dust-free workshop, and some workshops must be built into a vacuum workshop.

This requires the use of advanced prefabricated modules, and some modules need to be customized. "Yuan Keqing explained.

"The holographic bracelet and virtual icon Xianghua continue to provide cash flow to our company. The company has no shortage of funds, and the chip factory must be completed with quality and quantity.

In particular, the level of anti-vibration should be high. The absolute stability of the equipment must be guaranteed. Even if a low-level earthquake does not make people feel much, the processing equipment will produce displacement.

Even if the chip is processed by one nanometer, the entire wafer will be scrapped. Zhou Yu solemnly explained.

Please rest assured that I, as the supervisor, understand the quality of the chip factory. We have written this requirement into the contract. It is highly earthquake-proof, and earthquakes below magnitude 6 will not affect chip processing. Yuan Keqing introduced with a smile.

"The chip factory has not yet been completed. Let's go to the R & D center to see. They are responsible for developing chip processing equipment.

Academician Putian Kai designed graphene chips and explored the process of preparing graphene chips.

Puppet Labs can also produce finished chips, and now he is developing chip instruction set.

The true industrial production of chips depends entirely on whether the R & D center can produce qualified processing equipment. Zhou Yu said expectantly.

Sunda and Yuan Keqing walked into the R & D center, where a total of thousands of people served Xinghuo's scientific research.

After Ma Shangshu saw Zhou Yu's arrival, he immediately came to greet him.

"Zhou, welcome to inspect the R & D center. We are now setting up hundreds of scientific research projects and more than 80 laboratories.

Scientific research projects from basic science to future scientific exploration. "Ma Shangshu proudly introduced.

"Don't put together these useless things, you can't figure out what I'm going to do. Now where has the graphene chip processing equipment been developed?

Academician Putian Kai has figured out the theory and also explored the three main processes of graphene wafer processing. Zhou Yu asked immediately.

Ma Shangshu wiped the fine sweat on his forehead and hesitated a little: "This, Mr. Zhou, the reactor for refining graphene wafers has been successfully developed.

接到 We received data from the institute to optimize the reactor we studied.

Now we have formed the production parameters and handed it over to Xinghuo Precision Manufacturing Co. to produce the reactor and the packaging equipment for graphene wafers. We have also made a breakthrough, which is better than the 25% yield of the research institute. "

"Don't avoid the heavy and light, these devices can be researched with the help of a few people in the research institute. It is not normal for these people to do research in the research and development center.

最 The core equipment of graphene chip manufacturing is an etching machine. It needs to etch a graphene wafer with a 0.1-nanometer hydrogen atom beam, and divide a square meter of graphene wafer into standard chips.

The graphene chip is divided into different units by the hydrogen atom beam. This is also the process of coding the graphene chip. What is the progress of its research? Zhou Yu asked directly.

这个 "This, this, the processing difficulty of the etching machine is too high. We are now investing a huge amount of manpower and material resources and are overcoming difficulties." Ma Shangshu said entangled.

"Take me to the lab where the etching machine was developed. What difficulties did you encounter that could get stuck for so long?

Academician Putian Kai told me that he chose to etch this solution because the domestic etching technology is relatively advanced and will not be stuck. Zhou Yu asked puzzledly.

Putian Kaikai Institute has insufficient scientific research personnel and technical reserves to complete the etching machine.

He thought that the research center could make a breakthrough here, but he did not expect that they would be stumped by this technology.

At that time, Zhou Yu chose to let the institute and the research center go hand in hand to develop graphene chip processing equipment. This method of wasting manpower and material resources was to prevent a unit from being stuck by a certain difficulty.

I didn't expect that the research institute and R & D center were bothered by the etching technology.

一行 The group came to a huge laboratory. A group of scientific researchers in white coats pointed at a machine about two meters high and 1.5 meters long and wide.

Zhou Zhouyu saw that Yu Zhenfeng was also in the crowd. He waved to Yu Zhenfeng and greeted him.

"Director Yu, it is difficult for your R & D center to be etched."

When Yu Zhenfeng heard Zhou Yu's question, he immediately explained: "General Manager Zhou, I and Academician Tian Kai's institute have always been in communication, and the problems we encountered were very similar.

This is not a problem of the principle of etching technology, but a problem of processing in reality.

Academician Putian Kai designed a solution for processing graphene chips based on the most advanced etching technology in China, www.uukanshu.com.

Academician Putian Kai did not understand mechanical principles. He designed this standard. In theory, the etching machine can process chips, but it is difficult to control it in the actual processing process.

Because the standard graphene transistor needs to be processed into a pattern that meets the requirements, the duration and bombardment of the hydrogen atom beam need to be adjusted.

In the lab, plutonium can make several different hydrogen atom beam emission guns, each of which processes only one type of transistor.

Etching machines cannot use this method. Once this method is adopted, it is like engraving printing. Each etching machine can only process one chip, and a transistor changes. The etching machine worth hundreds of millions of dollars is completely Discarded.

Even the richest company cannot build such a luxurious production line. "

When Zhou Zhouyu heard Yu Zhenfeng's explanation, he immediately understood and smiled: "You just want to change the engraving printing to movable type printing, but you can't break through the technical difficulties."

Yu Zhenfeng smiled bitterly: "Zhou Zhou, meaning this meaning, but the difficulty is completely different, not to mention other processing difficulties, that is, the hydrogen atom beams of different properties interfere with each other, and the high-frequency fluctuations of hydrogen atom beams, both of these problems cannot be solved. . "

Zhou Zhouyu pondered for a moment, his eyes lit up and said, "I have an idea. You can design multiple emission sources and prepare hydrogen atom beams with different properties.

The tritium atomic beam emission gun is like a movable type printing, which can connect multiple emission sources.

The firing guns connected to each launch source work at the same time, and then switch different firing guns at once, so that the problems encountered cannot be solved perfectly. "

Yu Zhenfeng was pleasantly surprised: "Zhou Zhou, this solution is very clever, so that only the etching machine is larger, and the cost is acceptable."
