High-NA EUV
The ~$380M next step: bigger optics, finer features, halved field size.
You're looking at a technology record: a building block of AI hardware — what it does, who makes it, and which chips and systems use it.
High-numerical-aperture EUV (0.55 NA) resolves ~8 nm features in one exposure. Intel took the first production tools for its 14A roadmap; TSMC adopts more cautiously. Each system ships in multiple aircraft and costs around $380M — the most complex machine ever sold.
