Via Multipatterning Regardless of Wavelength as High-NA EUV Lithography Becomes Too Stochastic

Via Multipatterning Regardless of Wavelength as High-NA EUV Lithography Becomes Too Stochastic
by Fred Chen on 09-28-2025 at 10:00 am

Fred Chen EUV 2025

For the so-called “2nm” node or beyond, the minimum metal pitch is expected to be 20 nm or even less, while at the same time, contacted gate pitch is being pushed to 40 nm [1]. Therefore, we expect via connections that can possibly be as narrow as 10 nm (Figure 1)! For this reason, it is natural to expect High-NA EUV lithography as the go-to
