Zoomed in on a single transistor. ASML’s photolithography machines build your CPUs. 10,000x smaller, 1,000x faster since the 1940s.
A SINGLE TRANSISTOR UNDER THE MICROSCOPE That insane zoomed-in video? It reveals one lonely CPU transistor, the building block of every chip. Transistors are crafted using photolithography, where ultraviolet light etches microscopic patterns into silicon, repeated hundreds to thousands of times to build a full CPU. Only one company on …
