The X-Ray Tech That Reveals Chip Designs

Cars That Think

Our first technique, ptychographic X-ray computed tomography, was tested first on a portion of a 22-nanometer Intel processor constructing a detailed 3D image of the chip’s interconnects. Then, magnetic fields deflect those electrons, inducing the production of the desired X-rays. SLS-USC Chip-Scan team.
