I was trying to say that a system that kills itself is suicidal and that in as much as I participate in it then I too will be killing my field and aught to be in another. My hope is in doing things differently in keeping with the obvious words of Christ: "Neither do men light a candle (the candle of science), and put it under a bushel, but upon a candlestick, that it may give light to all that are in the house." -- Douay Rheims Chip fabs depend on smart well educated people to operate and design them. If they wall off the knowledge as to how they work the brains of the smart people will either take interest in another field, atrophy, or arrive at the plants will little knowledge of what to do or how they work. I've tried to find books on the subject. Look at the current material like "Silicon Processing For The Vlsi Era": These are ebay used books: $4.57 293115019126 Volume 1: Process Technology $5.60 143211754813 Volume 2: Process Integration (ExLib) $6.08 143179464527 Volume 3: The Submicron MOSFET And finally on amazon used books: $499.51 ISBN: 978-0961672171 Volume 4: Deep-Submicron Process Technology That price for a book of 822 pages *used* is HUGE!!!! I can get a *new* book with ~2x as many pages for $130, namely, my Bible. Read the comments (highlights mine): "This book provides a great amount of information on a field where there isn't much information to be found.[SIC] It is easy to read and very descriptive - highly recommended. It is a 2002[SIC] book though, talking about a field which evolves too quickly. Some of the "future" things the book talks about have already happened or the industry decided to move in a different direction, but in general this is not much a problem.[Unless you want to learn how to do this.]" Or "This well written reference book is highly recommended to anyone interested in the technology used to manufacture deep-submicron MOSFETs, i.e., MOSFETs requiring lithography in the 1/4 to 1/8-micron[SIC] range. ..." 1/8th of a micron is 125nm! 125nm! We're at 7nm, with 6nm risk production IIRC, and 5nm is in an alpha state! ...Sigh... Feel free to ask for clarification if needed. I'll try again. I'm not mad at you, at them, rather like Faust, I suffer from "care". And a bad case of it at that.
