Chapter 96 Further Research
Liu Sen entered the studio and began to systematically look through books related to chip manufacturing. The design content was really huge. No wonder high-end chips are so difficult to manufacture.
The foreign company arrogantly said, "I can't make it even if I give you the drawings."
In the next few days, Liu Sen kept researching and found that there are many types of chips, including carbon-based and silicon-based. The current mainstream is silicon-based, with mature technology and low price.
Liu Sen checked the types of silicon-based chips again and found that there are glass chips, but the technology is not mature, and the advantages and disadvantages of the material are obvious.
Glass chips have many advantages:
1. Good chemical properties
2. Excellent optical properties
3. Easy to photolithography and etching
4. Diverse bonding processes
The disadvantages are very large: very fragile and high processing costs.
Seeing this, Liu Sen had an idea in his mind. Glass was the material he played with first and the material he knew best.
The disadvantages of traditional glass are not present in Yidian Glass, and these disadvantages have been transformed into advantages. It is very strong, and under his catalyst, it is very easy to process and has strong plasticity.
And the cost is very low, suitable for large-scale use.
In addition, Yidian's glass has very strong heat dissipation performance, almost constant temperature, which can ensure that the performance of the chip will not be affected by temperature.
In this way, his special glass material can be fully used for the application of new glass chips.
Thinking of this, he immediately established a new company, Yidian Semiconductor.
He directly invested 50 billion yuan and set up a factory at the junction of Rongcheng and Jinling. The semiconductor factory is only 10 kilometers away from Yidian Glass, which is convenient for the connection between the two factories.
And he directly spent a lot of money to buy a 54-nanometer domestic lithography machine, which will be delivered in 1 month. At that time, the semiconductor factory can also be completed.
He bought another 90-nanometer lithography machine, which was directly placed in the laboratory of Yidian Group.
Liu Sen needed to verify his idea and used a 90-nanometer lithography machine to start processing this kind of glass. During the processing, he found that the catalyst he had used in the glass factory before could be used directly as photoresist, and there was almost no big difference in the efficacy and use of photoresist.
This was something Liu Sen had never expected. At that time, the catalyst developed could be used as photoresist because the special glass was too strong to be processed and recycled.
And because of the use of this catalyst, the difficulty of chip processing has been reduced a lot.
Because this catalyst makes special glass easy to process, after processing, after removing the catalyst, the glass chip is extremely strong.
Liu Sen's expected progress was greatly improved at once.
After many debugging, the first piece was finally completed.
After packaging and testing, it was found that the performance was twice as strong as that of chips of the same specifications.
This made Liu Sen know that Yidian's special glass can be used directly as a wafer, which is much easier to process than silicon wafers and the cost is much lower.
Yidian Glass can be directly expanded again, a dust-free workshop can be built, and glass wafers can be produced.
Liu Sen directly used the gold finger to change the performance of the glass chip that had just been produced, and then adjusted the progress of the 90-nanometer lithography machine to 9 nanometers.
Then he began to absorb the knowledge in his mind. There was too much knowledge. Even though Liu Sen had read a lot of professional books before, the knowledge of lithography machine manufacturing was like a vast ocean, plus there were new processes and designs for chip glass production.
Before leaving the laboratory, Liu Sen restored the lithography machine to 90 nanometers again to prevent others from seeing it.
Yidian Semiconductor kept recruiting researchers from all over the country, but it was too difficult to recruit people. After all, the domestic semiconductor industry was indeed too backward and there were few practitioners.
After paying a high price, it finally recruited thousands of people from all over the country, and many of them were poached from scientific research institutes.
As long as everyone came to Yidian, they would be given 2 million yuan for settling in, and the monthly salary was as high as 100,000 yuan. If they made achievements in research, they would have extra bonuses.
After arranging everyone to the laboratory to study according to Liu Sen's ideas, Liu Sen would not care about it for the time being.
Just check every now and then to prevent their research from going astray.
As the temperature gradually rose, Liu Sen began to swim in the rooftop pool again, and then lay on the lounge chair on the rooftop to relax, teasing Liu Ying, Yin Dan, and Lu Lu.
Looking at the night sky and feeling the depth of the universe, Liu Sen thought that one day he would enter the deep space of the universe.
Seeing a very bright object passing by in the sky, ordinary people might see stars, but Liu Sen saw it very clearly. It was a little blurry at first, but after he wanted to observe carefully, the picture in the starry sky instantly became clear and felt like it was magnified.
Finally, Liu Sen confirmed that it was the space station launched by China.
Space stations are spliced together one by one. If his wireless charging system is used in space stations, then it can save a lot of space and reduce the total amount a lot.
His later plan is that Yidian Company needs to launch satellites into space, and it will launch a lot of them.
Satellites in space can use wireless power transmission. In this way, all functional parts on the satellite have power receivers, which saves a lot of space and weight, and is also very convenient for maintenance. In case of problems, the functional parts can be directly replaced, which is very convenient.
In this way, satellite construction will be very simple and the cost will be greatly reduced.
The money that could only make one can make two. The manufacturing cycle that takes one month can be completed in just one week.
And the worry-free electricity APP can also assist in checking faults.
If any accessory is not connected to the power supply or the power supply is abnormal, it means that there is a problem with that accessory and it can be repaired or replaced.
And in the future, can spaceships, fighters, etc. also use this method to make all functional accessories independent.
What functions need to be used can be directly assembled or replaced directly if they are damaged.
Liu Sen thought of this and immediately told Liu Ying about his ideas.
"Ying'er, you will call a meeting with the heads of various research groups tomorrow morning."
"Okay, Brother Sen."
Liu Ying agreed and picked up her phone to start editing the memo.
The next day, in the large conference room in the laboratory of Yidian Group.
"Everyone, I have an idea, that is, in the future spaceships, space fighters, satellites, etc., can each functional module be independent, and each module can be directly disassembled, so that production and construction will be very simple."
Liu Sen looked at everyone who had gathered and spoke.
Hundreds of heads of various disciplines in the conference room were stunned when they heard Liu Sen's idea.
This jump is too big, the company has not involved in this business.
Why do we suddenly have to study space fighters and satellites?
"Why did you suddenly think of this aspect?" Qian Guoli, the head of the laboratory, hesitated for a moment, but still asked.
"Isn't this for the future development to be anticipated in advance? Is it possible to do this? Will this method become the direction of future development? After all, our wireless power transmission provides this possibility." Liu Sen explained directly.
The development of a company cannot be buried in hard work, but also needs to look up from time to time to see the future.
After hearing Liu Sen's words, everyone began to think about the possibility of this happening.
Everyone realized that this situation is not a possibility but a necessity for future development.
Everyone was impressed by Liu Sen again. Liu Sen is not only a top expert in scientific research, but also has forward-looking ideas for the future.
