InnoVac has applied for a patent for a droplet target generator for EUV light sources, which can produce stable, large-spaced, monodisperse droplets.​

Information from the State Intellectual Property Office shows that InnoVac. has applied for a patent called "A droplet target generating device for EUV light source", publication number CN120404072A, and the application date is May 2025.

The patent abstract shows that the present invention relates to the field of fluid mechanics technology, and in particular to a droplet target generating device for EUV light sources, comprising: a liquid supply component, a droplet ejection component and a piezoelectric drive component; the present invention utilizes an air pressure controller to apply positive pressure to the solution in the liquid reservoir, supplies the solution to the nozzle to extrude the jet, and then switches to negative pressure to force the jet to terminate, and the nozzle mouth maintains an inward meniscus; the piezoelectric element is then driven by a drive signal controller, and the deformation of the piezoelectric element is utilized to generate alternating positive and negative acoustic pressure waves in the liquid in the capillary, and the acoustic pressure waves are transmitted to the nozzle mouth to eject droplets; and the device can obtain the generation of stable droplets of different frequencies by setting the parameters of the drive signal controller. It has simple operation, precise control, and a large adjustable range, and can generate stable, large-spacing monodisperse droplets, which is suitable for the generation of droplet targets in EUV light sources.

IEEE Integrated Circuit Symposium opened at 9:00 AM on August 6th in Putrajaya, Malaysia.

A simple way to fact check this is to just search for the IEEE IC Symposium in Putrajaya. The only event I can find is scheduled for Nov 24/25th. Nothing came up for August 6th. I could be wrong as I didn’t put too much effort into the search, but it’s not that difficult to do some basic due diligence before reposting commentary from unknown sources.

Jingsheng Co., Ltd. launches SCML320A silicon carbide epitaxial furnace.​

Jingsheng Co., Ltd.'s official Weibo account announced the successful development of a new generation of SCML320A series horizontal 8-inch silicon carbide epitaxial furnace.



Jingsheng Co., Ltd.'s SCML320A silicon carbide epitaxial furnace boasts a growth rate of ≥60μm/h, film thickness uniformity of <1%, and doping uniformity of <2%, reaching internationally advanced levels. Furthermore, it supports both N and P doping types to meet diverse product requirements. It utilizes a mature growth process with controllable edge parameters and strong process adjustability. A newly added doping gas process enhances production stability.

Founded in 2012, Jingsheng Co., Ltd. specializes in semiconductor crystal growth equipment. In 2016, it successfully developed the first 12-inch semiconductor-grade single-crystal silicon furnace. In 2018, it officially delivered the first third-generation compound semiconductor silicon carbide single-crystal furnace to a customer. The company plans to list on the Shanghai Stock Exchange's Science and Technology Innovation Board in 2023. Jingsheng Co., Ltd. primarily engages in the research, development, production, and sales of crystal growth equipment, focusing on the semiconductor industry. It provides customized products such as semiconductor-grade single-crystal silicon furnaces, silicon carbide single-crystal furnaces, and other equipment to semiconductor material manufacturers and other material customers.

Silicon carbide epitaxy is a crucial link in the manufacturing of silicon carbide devices, and its quality directly determines the performance, reliability, and cost of the devices. With the rapid development of new energy vehicles, photovoltaic power generation, and other fields, continued innovation and breakthroughs in silicon carbide epitaxy technology will become a key driving force for the large-scale application of silicon carbide devices.

Like Intel doesn't have enough troubles. I don't wish bad to Intel but I have my doubts that this company will survive. Which will be ironic give that the US has been trying to kill Huawei for almost half a decade.





I can imagine the hearing already.

Tom Cotton: Mr. Tan are you citizen of the P.R.C.?
Tan: No senator I am a born Malaysian US citizen.
Tom Cotton: Mr. Tan are you a member of the See See Pee?
Tan: No senator I think you have to be a Chinese citizen and I am...again... a Malaysian Born US citizen.
Tom Cotton:
Tom Cotton: Mr. Tan did you know that Malaysia is close to China?
Tan:
