N3 Layer Manufacturing
Explore how a chip takes shape, from silicon fins and transistor contacts to the M0–M16 metal stack. Step through 94 illustrated stages, or jump directly to a layer.
A conceptual guide to an N3-style FinFET stack. Cross-sections are schematic and not to scale; they do not represent a foundry process recipe.
