Intel Capital has made an equity investment in Italian optics manufacturer Media Lario International for the development of key optical components for extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography, due for commercialisation by 2009 (32nm node).

Several technical hurdles have to be overcome for the timely delivery of the technology. In particular, some of the most stringent technical requirements are to be addressed through the design and manufacturing of very high accuracy reflective optical components, the core capability of Media Lario.

Media Lario has a ten-year history in the manufacturing of high-accuracy optical components and systems on the basis of a proprietary process based on electro-forming. The company’s core technology allows for high-volume production of reflective optical components. Among its many achievements, Media Lario was a key contributor to the success of the European Space Agency XMM mission. This resulted in the 1999 launch of the most powerful x-ray telescope ever built.
