This is the most insane tech company in the world, ASML. Every single computer chip on earth is made using their machines. In video, Apple, Intel, Samsung, none of them can make any chips without ASML. But here's the craziest part. The way these ASML machines work is completely insane. If you like tech, this is going to blow your mind. This is how computer chips actually get made. First, the ASML machines fire tiny droplets of molten tin, each thinner than a human hair. They then shoot a laser at each individual droplet, which vaporizes the tin into a plasma. That plasma is hotter than the surface of the sun. It's so hot that when the plasma gets created, it also emits extreme UV light. And this is where the process gets even crazier. The ASML machine guides that light through a series of hyper precise mirrors that beam it onto a stencil that has the pattern for the chip design. That pattern is then projected on a super thin slice of silicon that's coated with light reactive chemicals, essentially using the light to print the pattern onto the silicon. The machine then repeats this light printing process thousands of times to build layer upon layer of silicon that stacks together to create a fully functional chip. Now here's where it gets wild. These chip design patterns are super intricate. They have billions of transistors spaced only a few atoms apart. And that means the accuracy of these ASML machines is the equivalent of shooting a laser from the moon and hitting a penny on Earth. How insane is that? So in layman's terms, the process to make a computer chip is vaporizing molten tin to create invisible light that beams atomic patterns onto thousands of layers of silica. Shout out science!
