This week, Intel began to receive its first ASML’s extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography tool with a 0.55 numerical aperture (High-NA), which it will use to learn how to use the technology before deploying the machines for a post-18A production node in the next couple of years or so. By contrast, TSMC is in no rush to adopt High-NA EUV any time soon, and it might be years before the company jumps on this bandwagon in 2030 or beyond, according to analysts from both China Renaissance and SemiAnalysis.

“In contrast to Intel’s use of High-NA EUV soon after its shift to GAA (planned for [20A] insertion), we expect TSMC’sHigh-NA EUV insertion in the post N1.4 era (the inflection likely at N1, scheduled for post-2030 launch),” wrote Szeho Ng, an analyst with China Renaissance.

“I like it when this was just a little country town, and this was it,” said Louis Guillaud. “This downtown area here was it.”

Multiferroics can possess multiple ferroic orders, for example, electric polarization and magnetism, and are of interest for new device applications. Here thermal control is shown to manipulate electric and magnetic orders in a single-phase quasi-two-dimensional halide perovskite.

The GeForce RTX 5,090 will be NVIDIA’s next gaming flagship, doubling down on memory, cache, and cores. Multiple sources have shared their findings on the Blackwell top gun, which we’ll discuss in this post. RedGamingTech claims that the RTX 5,090 will feature 204 SMs for a total of 26,112 cores. On the memory side, we’re …
