xLight

xLight is developing a particle-accelerator-based light source as a domestic alternative to ASML's EUV lithography machines. The company aims to produce a free-electron laser that can generate more EUV power than current plasma sources, targeting advanced chipmakers. This funding round is significant as it includes federal backing through the CHIPS Act.
