Hyper-NA EUV: The Next Extension Beyond High NA Lithography (Carl Zeiss, ASML)
What happened
Researchers at Carl Zeiss SMT and ASML published a technical paper titled “Hyper-NA: a system with a numerical aperture of at least 0.75.” The paper examines Hyper-NA EUV lithography with a numerical aperture of at least 0.75 as a path beyond current 0.55-NA High-NA systems, covering the optical architecture, resolution potential, and reticle 3D effects. This is a research publication; it involves no volume, price, or production plans, and the source does not state any cause or implementation timeline.
