ELMIC aims to advance the basic science driving the integration of new materials and processes into future microelectronic ...

EUV, extreme ultraviolet lithography, is nearly completely associated with the Dutch company ASML, the only maker of EUV ...

The project aims for the next evolution of EUV lithography, centered around the lab-developed driver system named the Big ...

In the case of the MIT project, a 1.9 μm thulium laser produces a beam tuned to water vapor at power levels that are not harmful to your eyes. The water vapor around your ears — and there is a ...

Less common, but still valuable, is thulium's role in doping a special type of garnet, yttrium aluminium garnet or YAG. The crystal is used as the active medium in a laser with a wavelength of around ...

Decades of cutting-edge laser, optics and plasma physics research at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) played a key role in the underlying ...
