Abstract :
Moore´s Law needs a hero. This year, we´ll see if the chip business´s designated savior-extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography- is really up to the task. After decades of bringing us the incredible shrinking transistor, chipmakers are now hard up against the limits of their printing technique: Trying to use today´s ultraviolet lasers to print the next generation of circuits would be like trying to trace a fine line with a preschooler´s crayon.
