Welcome[edit]

Hello Guiding light and welcome to Wikipedia! I'm glad you've chosen to join us. This is a great project with lots of dedicated people, which might seem intimidating at times, but don't let anything discourage you. Be bold!, explore, and contribute. If you want to learn more,

The following links might also come in handy:

Float around for awhile until you find something that tickles your fancy. One easy way to do this is to hit the random page button in the navigation bar to the left. You can write new articles, add to existing ones, or edit any and all pages that appear. There are also many great committees and groups that focus on particular jobs. My personal favorite stomping grounds are Wikipedia:Translation into English and Wikipedia:Cleanup for sloppy articles, but they may not interest you. Finally, the Wikimedia Foundation has several other wiki projects that you might enjoy more, but Wikipedia is the most popular by far.

There are a few crucial points to keep in mind when editing. Be civil with users, strive to maintain a neutral point of view, and show good etiquette like signing your comments with four tildas like this: ~~~~ If you have any more questions, always feel free to ask me anything on my talk page or ask the true experts at Wikipedia:Help desk. Again, welcome! Draeco 03:06, 27 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Photomask[edit]

I am very sorry; The only thing I wanted is to revert your deletion of the word "vol." from biblio ref. I was careless not to notice that you had other important contribution. mikka (t) 18:29, 27 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Proximity effect[edit]

Thank you for your recent addition to Proximity effect! I created the article (there was a stub about a comic book there before) and so I watch it, but as I'm not a physicist I lack the expertise to bring the article up to par. Your addition is much appreciated. KillerChihuahua 13:19, 3 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your additions to phase-shift mask and the overall nice work you are doing in semiconductors-related articles. I have a question. Do you know where we could get a picture for the photomask article? I added a diagram there, but having also a picture of a real mask could be helpful. (I don't expect that you'll just deliver the picture, just wondering. :) Thanks. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 14:54, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Oleg, thanks for your support. I do not have a photomask picture (yet), but if I do get one, I will still need to ask for permission to post. Will be looking...Sincerely, Guiding light 04:25, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Cool. I cropped the Image:80 nm pitch contact.jpg from phase-shift mask and moved one of its diagrams under the other one (as opposed to the original side-by-side alignment). Hope that's fine with you. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 04:58, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
(If the image looks odd in the article after my resizing, you may need to do a hard reload to refresh the page.) Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 05:00, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi guiding light. I wonder if you could comment on my comment at Talk:Double patterning. Thanks. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 05:34, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Resolution vs. DOF.JPG listed for deletion[edit]

I noticed that the image Image:Resolution vs. DOF.JPG was blurry because it was stored as JPG. I converted it to PNG, Image:Resolution vs. DOF.png and listed the jpg version for deletion. I hope you don't mind. Boilerplate text follows.

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Resolution vs. DOF.JPG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Han-Kwang (t) 08:31, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It seems that you take this conversion/deletion a bit personally; If I had known, I would have discussed it with you beforehand. If you want, I can try to retract my IfD proposal.
One reason for changing to PNG is that compression artifacts are especially noticeable in Wikipedia's thumbnails because of the low JPEG quality setting used there. I thought it'd be more useful to fix the problem rather than slapping a {{badJPEG}} on the image. WP:PIFU gives some advice how to reduce the image file size. You mentioned that JPEG is smaller than PNG. However, Image:Resolution vs. DOF.JPG was 28 kB, while Image:Resolution vs. DOF.png (the version I uploaded originally) was 19 kB. I didn't even convert it to indexed mode rather than truecolor, which reduces the size to just 6 kB (16 colors), as does your new PNG version. Han-Kwang (t) 15:35, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the information. I had not done a thorough comparison before, but after viewing the link you had earlier, it makes more sense. The resolution vs DOF had to be updated for content anyway; following your suggestion, I used PNG format this time.Guiding light (talk) 01:14, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Resolution vs. DOF image[edit]

Hi Guiding light. Thank you for making Image:Resolution vs. DOF.png prettier than before. I have a couple of suggestions, for future uploads, if you don't mind. First, it is good to crop the whitespace around the borders as much as possible, not for reason of making the picture smaller, but because pictures usually show up as thumbnails, and then a picture with less empty space around it can show up a bit bigger and clearer. Second, if possible, pictures of a bit higher resolution are preferred. In this picture the text appears kind of pixelated.

Lastly, I read your comment here. I do agree PNG is a higher quality format. I think we should select for that, rather than for which picture takes less space. A PNG picture of a few hundreds pixels is very small in size anyway. Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 03:08, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, no problem, thanks for the suggestions.Guiding light (talk) 12:33, 20 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on File:Jumping to NGL.PNG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

File:Jumping several nodes.PNG listed for deletion[edit]

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Jumping several nodes.PNG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

E-beam lithography write time?[edit]

Hi, was wondering if you would happen to know what the source of the equation for electron beam lithography write time on the page would be. Is there a book? A paper? I've been trying to trace it and can't seem to find it. Thanks a lot! Shaztaz (talk) 17:25, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It is given in many places, but some sources have been removed. Here is one I found still available online: http://usstepper.com/IDI-SPIE%20paper.pdf I will also put the reference in the article. ThanksGuiding light (talk) 13:25, 7 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

16 nm "design rule?"[edit]

Sorry, but there's an edit you made to the 16 nanometer article that I've been curious about since the first time I saw it. What does it mean when you say "the design rule" for 16 nm is 30 nm? What design rule exactly? If you could clarify this for those of us not conversant in industry jargon, that would be awesome. 146.6.208.13 (talk) 15:47, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It should mean the half pitch for that referenced statement. I can change it to say that, if that is clear enough. Guiding light (talk) 23:25, 25 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification[edit]

Hi. When you recently edited Extreme ultraviolet lithography, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page ASML (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

16->14nm, 11->10 etc[edit]

Is there a reason you are moving these pages? The table and articles were following nodes that were specified by the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors as seen in this table on the left. Unless ITRS has updated their vision, you will need to undo your changes. 14->10->7->5nm is Intel's current roadmap, which is NOT what these tables and articles are defined by. Other fabs will be sticking with plans originally made by ITRS or their own. Colinstu (talk) 09:56, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Intel Litho Landscape 2013.png[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Intel Litho Landscape 2013.png. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

Replaceable fair use File:CD 3s uniformity vs. dose.png[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:CD 3s uniformity vs. dose.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 21:18, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Re-organized page[edit]

Removed material dated before 2013. Also the "Unexpected Resolution Limits" section was split and separated into different sections, relating to resist, secondary electrons, EUV optics and throughput. If there is any deleted material you like put back, please let me know, thanks.Guiding light (talk) 08:03, 18 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on File:Increasing litho steps for advanced nodes.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
