Lacey(@LaceyPresley):Terafab is not merely a larger fab. It is a thermodynamic rewrite of chipmaking. By replacing point-of-use laser-produced plasma with utility-scale ERL-FEL infrastructure, the consortium turns lithographic light into a shared utility generated centrally and distributed across the fab. That breaks dependence on the physical limits of tin-plasma sources and creates a tunable path toward 6.7 nm Beyond EUV: adjust the accelerator’s electron energy, shift the photon wavelength, and drive the next generation of patterning. The old model installs a light source inside every machine. The Terafab model builds a photon power plant. This is not just semiconductor scaling. It is the industrialization of light.
