Key facts
- Invisix, a startup spun out of ASML, has raised €20 million.
- The company aims to develop technology for inspecting semiconductor chips.
- Current optical tools face limitations in resolving structures in complex, multi-layered chips.
As semiconductor chips become increasingly complex with 3D stacking and nanometre-scale structures, traditional optical inspection methods are becoming insufficient. This creates a significant challenge in ensuring the quality and functionality of advanced chips. Invisix's technology aims to address this gap by providing a new way to 'see' inside these intricate designs.
