I have a Black Tech Ball

Chapter 98 90 Crown Jewels of Industry

They have no intention of selling it to you, the core technology can't be bought, you can only rely on your own research!

The West signed a Walsen Agreement, and photolithographs were not allowed to be sold to our country.

Tech Ball Institute, with the help of Little Ball, Zhang Zion produced the photolithography machine step by step.

"Little Ball, check how far the precision of the photolithography machine I made has reached?" Little Ball wiped the sweat from his face and said.

He had been at the institute for over a month now, and his theoretical knowledge of photolithography had already been eaten up, now it was time to translate the theory into practice.

"Master, the precision of the photolithography machine you've developed now has reached fifty nanometers." Little Ball said.

Zhang Zion shook his head after hearing that, "Or not, Little Ball help me check what's wrong."

"The alignment system of the photolithography machine you made has some flaws, so much so that the accuracy has only reached fifty nanometers." Little Ball straightforwardly pointed out the problem to Zhang Zion.

"I see." Zhang Zion revised it once more.

Zhang Zion's factory was bringing him wealth in an endless stream, but saving money was impossible, and only by spending it could it be of proper value!

Now Zhang Zion has been building a chip production factory, it can be said that this time the factory built is one of Zhang Zion's largest investment, after all, the production of chips is very demanding on the environment, there are great restrictions on the temperature as well as humidity inside the factory.

The chips produced at different temperatures were different.

And it must be dust-free production!

In order to build the technology ball chip factory, Zhang Zion has invested tens of billions into it, it is all worth it, to know that the chip market is incomparably vast, worldwide, the output value of the chip has reached a staggering two billion, and is still rising, with the intelligent robot this big engine, is bound to rise greatly.

The future trend robots may develop a human hand share, the same as mobile phones, maybe at that time robots can replace mobile phones!

There were two beautiful and dazzling pearls in the industrial crown, the first one was the space shuttle's engine, and the other one was the lithography machine.

For the engine, Zhang Ziang had already developed an electric motor that would be applied to the space shuttle in the future, and the most crucial part had been developed, and was now working overtime to build his own space shuttle.

Zhang Ziang was confident of this, and would definitely be able to build it within three years!

The photolithography machine... under the guidance of the little ball, the precision of the photolithography machine is increasing....

"Twenty-two nanometers..."

"Ten nanometers..."

"Five nanometers..."

"1nm..."

"Master, congratulations, the photolithography machine you've created is now the most advanced photolithography machine in Waterball, even those so-called developed countries, their photolithography machines are not as precise as yours." Little Ball said happily.

"No..., that alone is not enough!" A mere 1 nm is not what Zhang Zion is aiming for, Zhang Zion said stubbornly.

Keep researching!

"0.5 nanometers!"

"0.3 nanometers!"

"0,05nm!"

........

"0.0001 nanometers!"

Three months later, Zhang Zion's hair can already be tied small, beard scruffy, eyes full of blood, but the eyes are the brighter and brighter, he excitedly looked in front of the photolithography machine clapped his hands: "So far, has researched the precision of 0.0001 nanometers photolithography machine, sloppy it.... ..."

"It's not that they're not selling to us this time, it's that we're not selling to them!" Zhang Zion said, In the past, if you bought a foreign lithography machine, not only would you say all the good things and voluntarily act as the little white sheep to be slaughtered by the other side.

Even if they finally sold it to us, it would still be a ten-year old photoresist!

"Xiaoyu, what's happening with our chip factory now?" This was the first time that Zhang Zion was concerned about the construction of his own factory, he had immediately invested in research after he had sent the money over, and had no time to ask about it at all.

Now that a lithography machine that satisfied him had been developed, he naturally thought of his own factory.

"Boss, after you threw a lot of money into it, our first assembly line for the chip has already started production, and in the next five months, our other assembly lines will start to come into production one after another."

Zhang Zion nodded after hearing this, "Our company has already developed a high-precision lithography machine, so call someone to pull it."

"Really, boss, you're so strong." Zhang Xiaoyu said squealingly.

She knew that here it said that the company had developed it, but it was actually Zhang Zion who had developed it!

For the photolithography machine, Zhang Xiaoyu also had a lot of knowledge in his head, knowing that the most important thing in manufacturing chips was the photolithography machine, watching the chip factory change a little every day and a lot every three days, while being pleased, he was also worried for Zhang Zion.

What if... what if the factory was built and there was no advanced photolithography machine, and the chips were not produced, or the chips produced were not qualified at all?

Now that leader Zhang Ziang had developed the high-precision lithography machine as well, a big stone in her heart had finally fallen, although she didn't know how high that precision was, but she believed that Zhang Ziang's product would be a fine product!

Soon there were people from the Techno Ball Factory coming to receive the photolithography machine, and now there was only this one, but Zhang Zion was going to work overtime to make ten more.

It was believed that having these eleven units would be enough to satisfy his factory's needs for the time being.

"Master, what about these photolithography machines?" The little ball said it was those failures.

"Destroy them all, they have no value to me, but they can't fall into the hands of anyone else!" Zhang Zion said.

"Yes, master."

One by one, the nanobots were released by the small ball, and they got inside these photolithographs, and before ten seconds had passed, these photolithographs were broken down into a single particle, like sand.

Seeing this kind of scene, Zhang Zion felt a little terrifying.

........

Inside the tech ball chip factory, the photolithography machine is in place and getting busy, constantly transforming quartz sand into monocrystalline silicon.

Then the single-crystal silicon is processed into silicon wafers, and then the wafers are coated with photoresist film in order to increase the temperature resistance of the wafers as well as antioxidant capacity.

This is followed by wafer photolithography, ion implantation, wafer testing, encapsulation.......

Every step of the process is done in a dust-free environment, and a single error in the process can affect the quality of the chip, or even scrap it!

Dozens of staff members in white coats were constantly recording data and sampling the chips from time to time to check the quality of the chips to avoid bulk problems.

These staff members were filled with excitement: "I've never seen such a high-precision chip before, it's incredible!"
