Moore's Law means that the semiconductor process will advance every generation for 18 months. As the transistors become smaller and smaller, the line width of the circuits becomes narrower and narrower. This has almost reached the physical limit, causing the industry to worry that semiconductor advanced processes will be unable to continue to upgrade. The problem.
Hago Valley, head of technology research at JPMorgan Chase, pointed out that Asmore’s firmer Moore's Law can be extended to 1.5 nanometers to support the semiconductor industry at least until 2030.
In addition, Asmell will use high numerical aperture (NA) optical systems at 3nm and more advanced processes; in the past Esmol for the development of the NA system, the acquisition of Carl Zeiss subsidiary Zeiss Semiconductor in Germany. Now foreign-funded news further confirms that Moore will expand the following 3 nanometer technology.
According to Yang Kangchao, chief consultant of the Yikang Group and Qingxing Capital, Asimore’s technological progress is a major breakthrough for the semiconductor industry, which benefits the entire industry. In the 7-nanometer process, TSMC and Samsung, which have already started the arms race, will face even more fierce competition.
Chen Huiming, partner and fund manager at Substance Capital, pointed out that TSMC's ability to maintain its leading position in the industry depends on continuous progress in the process. Therefore, Esme's 1.5-nanometer manufacturing process not only helps TSMC to consolidate its advantages, but is also 'best for first place'. Also eased the market's original concerns, process technology can not break through, the red supply chain will catch up.
TSMC plans to introduce a 7-nanometer enhanced version of EUV into mass production next year. With 5 nanometers of ultra-violet light, production will begin in 2020.
