🇨🇭 Washerwomen scrub linen on a stone bank, a boat brings more bundles, and a wooden washhouse with a heavy red roof floats on the Rhône. Behind it, the old town of Geneva climbs to the towers of Saint-Pierre Cathedral, with the Salève in the distance. Geneva's first floating washhouse, or bateau-lavoir, was set up in 1691 by the merchant Théophile Thelusson to give the washerwomen shelter. Laundry was done on the Rhône this way until 1918. The English watercolourist Samuel Prout drew the scene on stone. The print was then hand-coloured; the Swiss National Library dates it to 1839. #Geneva #Genève #Switzerland #Suisse #Rhône #Europe #Lithography #HandColoured #vintage #art #artwork

“China has built its first domestic prototype of an #EUV #lithography machine. The national effort pulled together so many resources that many compared to China's Manhattan project. But one detail stood out immediately. The #prototype reportedly occupies an entire factory floor.” — Anastasi In Tech #AnastasiInTech / #EE / #ASML / #silicon / #UV / #China / “China Just Built What ASML Feared Most”

“China has crossed a milestone that many in the semiconductor industry once viewed as years away. A #Chinese state-backed company has begun mass producing homegrown immersion deep ultraviolet #DUV #lithography machines, marking the country’s first commercial manufacturing effort for one of the most advanced and tightly controlled pieces of #chipmaking equipment. The move gives Chinese chipmakers their strongest domestic alternative yet to Western lithography systems and marks another step in Beijing’s campaign to reduce reliance on #ForeignTechnology after years of export restrictions from the United States and its allies. The development was first reported by #TheInformation, which said the Shanghai-based manufacturer has already started production and expects to deliver its first systems to leading domestic chipmakers later this year.” #28Nm / #7Nm / #5Nm / #lithography / #silicon
