We now know what Pat Gelsinger’s project is after leaving Intel: particle accelerators for making chips.
Very roughly speaking, this light source generates EUV radiation using high-power lasers capable of instantly heating tens of thousands of tiny tin droplets in a single second to temperatures of half a million degrees Celsius. This interaction produces an extremely hot plasma that emits ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 13.5 nm. It seems like
