Why was ASML founded?
In 1984, Philips spun off its photolithography division and became ASML. Due to backward technology, the EUV lithography machine that Intel has developed for many years has not yet been launched, and it has been decided not to have an EUV lithography machine made by an American company.
Rapidus will be TSMC’s strongest rival in the near future
Rapidus is a chip foundry supported by the Japanese government. It has been given only one mission–to revitalize Japan’s semiconductor industry, which was once the world’s number one but was strangled by the United States.
How does Lam Research, top chip equipment vendor, make money?
In terms of supplying equipment for semiconductor factory production, Lam Research is on par with Applied Materials. The two hold the core equipment for the production of all semiconductor factories in the world. Without equipment from either of them, semiconductor factories would be almost unable to produce.

The TSMC cost, sell price, and R&D cost of chip foundry
This post will discuss the semiconductor industry and the cost, sell price, and R&D cost of chip foundry that most Taiwan stock investors are concerned about
Zyvex and sub-nanometer semiconductor processes, will Zyvex threat TSMC?
Zyvex and sub-nanometer, However, the disadvantage of this technology is that the output is very low, and it cannot meet the needs of large-scale manufacturing of chips. It is only suitable for small-scale production and cannot meet the large-scale demand for chips in the market. It seems that it does not pose a threat to TSMC. Moore’s position is irreplaceable.
