Carl Zeiss, Explained: Germany’s Semiconductor Optics Master

Germany-based Carl Zeiss AG is a fascinating company. Fascinating, even if you do not take into account that they make lenses and optics for some of the coolest systems in the world.
When you are etching patterns as wide as a small virus, you have graduated beyond simple lens. Now we refer to them as "optics systems". These massive multi-component systems are at the very heart of the multi-million dollar photolithography machines that ASML makes. Without them, ASML has no machine to deliver to TSMC, Samsung or Intel.
In this video, we are going to continue with our deep dive into the semiconductor industry’s critical suppliers with a look at one of ASML’s closest partners. The makers of the optics systems that let high-energy UV light etch wafers. And a company with an utterly fascinating history. Carl Zeiss.
Error: The video shows that Zeiss died in 1866. He died in 1888.

    Zeiss had fantastic story. Outside of the semiconductor work I like the story of the camera optics in the USSR and the Helios 44 lenses which are descended from the Zess Jena Biotar lens. Also in the interwar period Nikon lured some engineers to Japan to help with optics and kickstart the Japan optics industry. A huge part of the modern world is built directly and indirectly on the early work of Zeiss.

    That the mirror system in the EUV system are some of the most extremely complicated and finely tuned things you've ever run in to, I'm quite willing to believe. I've heard and read some things about other parts of the EUV machine myself, like the light source, and those create the exact kind of feeling in me as well. As some of the most insanely sophisticated pieces of engineering you've ever heard of. Probably quite a few things in the EUV machine are like that I guess and it really explains why the costs of developing it were so high, or why unit prices so high. And yeah, it really makes you wonder if anyone else can any time soon afford to develop a competitor device. Frankly, especially with hindsight on the costs and extreme engineering involved, it wouldn't have been that surprising if the semiconductor industry had failed to make this jump and just stalled out at around 10 nm or so for a good long while. They almost didn't make it as it is, what a different semiconductor world that would have been.

    Supposedly the better German optics were an important advantage to Germany in WWII, so it’s not surprising that the Soviets were keen to scoop up as much of Zeiss as they could.

    I accidentally stumbled upon this video - it is really nicely made, even though the technical (read 'the cool one') part is not going too deep (though one can find some more videos on YT that offer that). I can only agree with what other commentators have mentioned already - the rather unique type of ownership of the company makes is less susceptible to market fluctuations and makes it easier to overcome times like 2008/2009 when revenue dropped sharply.

    @@codycast Oh no nothing is wrong with it. You just get a nicer sound if you record with a few panels like I suggested - less room reflections, less frequency doubling etc. Specifically you get less positive interference of higher frequencies which means the sound becomes warmer. Also reduces vibrational undertones which come from when the lower frequency sound waves hit the walls and other flat objects in the room. To be honest I don't think without a decade of sound work you will notice it, but I do. It's not a criticism only a suggestion.

    Excellent content and your pronunciation is super-clear! When unsure how to pronounce German names (e.g. "Carl Zeiss Jena"), you can always enter them into "google translate" and ask it to pronounce them a couple of times -- every other time it will do it slowly, making it easier to catch the nuances. (This works for many other languages as well, of course.)
