Transcript
00:00Molten tin drops fall into a sealed vacuum chamber 50,000 times every second.
00:05High-powered lasers smash each falling droplet twice to flatten and instantly vaporize the metal.
00:12This violent explosion creates extreme ultraviolet light needed to carve microscopic circuits onto silicon wafers.
00:21Magnetic fields catch the remaining debris, while robotic mirrors bounce the invisible light beams through total darkness.
00:28Every advanced computer processor on Earth depends entirely on this chaotic laser show inside sealed vacuum chambers.
