Kong Bai stayed at Zhonghai Guangke Semiconductor for an hour and roughly understood the manufacturing progress of the 1nm lithography machine.
At present, Zhonghai Optics Semiconductor has formed a production line with an annual output of 12 sets of 1nm lithography machines. However, this production line, or based on the previous 90 nm lithography machine production line of Zhonghai Guangke Technology transformation, a lot of process equipment, in fact, is not suitable for the production and assembly of 1 nm lithography machine this ultra-precision scientific instrument, there are many auxiliary equipment are temporarily processed by technicians according to needs, therefore, the production capacity is very limited, 24 hours of continuous rotation, can only barely ensure the production speed of 1 unit per month.
Not long ago, Zhonghai Lithography Semiconductor has been supported by the strong computing power of their own artificial intelligence "little magic core", newly designed two ultra-high-precision extreme ultraviolet lithography machine production lines, the design capacity of each line, about 30 1 nm lithography machines per year, and now has begun to transform and build a large-scale clean plant, and it is expected that in more than two months, one of the production lines can be put into production. And the realization of simultaneous production of two lines is also in the near future.
Fortunately, there are ready-made clean machine rooms that can be transformed, otherwise, it would take at least a year to put these two production lines into use.
At the same time, the ambition of optical semiconductors is not only here, they have a larger clean machine room construction project has broken ground, and plan to add six new ultra-high-precision ultraviolet lithography machine production lines in about two years.
This newly designed precision instrument assembly production line will use the concept of operations research, boldly adopt the new design concept of three-dimensional intersection space, fully increase the utilization rate of vertical space, so that its production efficiency can be increased by at least 50%, after reaching production, a single line can achieve an annual output of 50 sets of 1 nm lithography machines, 6 lines all reach production, can form an annual output of 370 advanced process lithography machines of huge production capacity, will greatly alleviate the "lithography machine hunger" in Longguo.
Zhonghai Guangke Semiconductor's parent company, Zhonghai Guangke Technology, originally built a large-scale clean workshop for the production of the highest precision 90 nm lithography machine, at present, Guangke Technology has transferred these clean workshops, and even the entire Zhonghai Guangke Industrial Park, all to the subsidiary Guangke Semiconductor.
In addition, the newly purchased industrial park of Guangke Technology is located in the Magic Island Development Zone, less than 3 kilometers away from the Demon King Building, covering a large area, leaving enough space for further development in the future.
At the same time, considering the issue of prohibiting intra-industry competition between parent and subsidiary companies, Guangke Technology intends to completely abandon the lithography machine manufacturing industry and fully transform into a semiconductor industry chain technology and equipment supplier, and a professional value-added service provider.
At the same time, Guangke Technology has also invested heavily in the establishment of a strong R&D department, organized a crack force, and specially developed a vapor deposition (CVD) reactor for the production of large-size diamond wafers, as well as special equipment related to diamond wafer polishing, cutting and testing.
Guangke Technology also got an artificial intelligence from the magic cave, named "Little Magic Light", focusing on the design and manufacture of semiconductor equipment. Guangke Technology in her strong computing power blessing, has designed a 12-inch diamond wafer CVD reactor, is currently in the process of yield climbing, if according to their design yield after production, the cost of diamond chips, will be greatly reduced, can achieve a single chip core of about 400 yuan, in this way, the cost of a 256-core new architecture server chip, will be greatly reduced to about 130,000, the cost of each standard configuration of supercomputing server, It can be greatly reduced to about 5 million, which is at least 75% lower than the original!
Kong Bai was surprised by the rapid development of optical science and technology!
At that time, when he fully licensed the technology related to diamond chips to Guangke Technology, he told them a little long-sightedly that if the design of the CVD reactor is reasonable enough, the cost of diamond wafers can be reduced to about 40% of the current cost, coupled with the increase in the size of a single wafer, if the price of supercomputing server chips can be greatly reduced to about one-third, it will be very economical and competitive. Then Zhonghai Guangke Technology and Optical Semiconductor will turn around and turn a profit just around the corner!
I didn't expect to start seeing the light of day so soon!
Chief Engineer Zhang Xingshi said a little excitedly:
"The most important thing is the parameter setting of production equipment, now with artificial intelligence into micro-level tracking and analysis, we used to feel that the equipment parameter control that was extremely difficult has now become a small problem!"
"Artificial intelligence obtains data through various sensors, almost the entire diamond wafer production process, femtosecond analysis, to point us to the next direction of adjustment and improvement, so that those previously seemingly difficult process parameters, no matter how difficult, try a few more times, you can get it!"
"I finally thoroughly understood why Academician Kong said that with a nanometer lithography machine, the dragon country will enter the big bang of technology!"
"Academician Kong is so right! As long as the computing power can keep up, artificial intelligence is really omnipotent!
"Now not only our optical science technology, but even the north and south of precision machine tools are also developing day by day!"
"They have bought a large area of land in the Magic Island Development Zone, built their own industrial parks, and moved all their technology research and development centers to Zhonghai!"
"However, they do not have their own artificial intelligence, and can only borrow our 'little magic light' from time to time, so as to comprehensively optimize the control system of their precision machine tools, and on the basis of no major improvements and breakthroughs in hardware, the processing efficiency and precision have been increased by more than 30%!"
"They are simply coveting our artificial intelligence, and they say let me be a lobbyist, intercede for them in front of you, and sell them each an artificial intelligence system, hehe!"
"Academician Kong, precision machine tools are the parent industry of our precision device processing industry, and how they develop will directly determine the future of our downstream enterprises!"
"Moreover, they also drew a big pie, saying that they have begun to plan and design the next generation of ultra-fine micro-automatic machining centers, which will fully adopt the latest intelligent control system, to put it bluntly, they want to use quantum communication units as data transmission mechanisms, so that artificial intelligence to control each machine tool in detail, will definitely be much better than those artificial intelligence control systems!"
"So, Academician Kong, look..." Kong
Bai smiled and pointed at Qiao Changsheng while replying,
"You don't have to be so polite in the future!" You know me, I'm busy all day, not idle for a while, what things will definitely not be considered, what are your requirements, although contact Director Qiao, he is now my big housekeeper, or the chairman and general manager of the Demon King Guard Company, what business needs, you will find him, now he has the final say, I have to work for him! Hahaha!
"High-precision machine tools, like 1nm chips, are the basic industries of modern high-tech enterprises, and all your needs should be met in the first time!"
"Director Song and Director Qiao are here today, we don't need to engage in any false ceremony, we will form a strategic alliance, what business needs the allies have in the future, just put it forward, we will go all out to help solve it!"
"After you discuss, sign a memorandum, and build the shelf of the strategic alliance, we must only seize the day and wait for time to do our business, so we must establish a multi-party coordination mechanism with close ties and efficient operation, let Director Song serve as the general coordinator of this mechanism, seize time, race against time, and make our cause bigger and stronger as soon as possible, and create brilliance again, hahaha..."
