The patent abstract shows that the present invention provides a projection objective optical system and a lithography machine. The projection objective optical system includes in order from the object surface to the image surface along its optical axis direction: a first lens group, a second lens group, Diaphragm, third lens group and fourth lens group. Wherein, the third lens group and the second lens group are symmetrical about the aperture, the fourth lens group and the first lens group are symmetrical about the aperture, and the projection objective optical system is symmetrical structure, and all lens groups in the projection objective optical system have positive refractive power, which can increase the field of view size of the exposure system and increase productivity on the basis of improving imaging quality..

rather interesting one here. Chinese company is investing 200m RMB at a SiC project in Russia. This might be first one of the type i heard.

based on news from last year, this is to produce 42k ton of SiC. 70% for export to China and ASEAN countries
this will be handy if china invades taiwan as taiwan/nato will likely target chinese fabs to economically harm china.

Isn't BYD also a supplier for phonemakers as well? As phonemakers increasingly localise their suppliers, it seems prudent for BYD to expand in that area.

I think you are on the right track here.
Audio amp chip is a cheap commodity thing. I think TI is one of the major suppliers.
Why BYD would “waste” time with such a development would be because they probably want to run the fabs at full capacity. They can supply these chips to handset makers and other electronics makers (speakers, etc.) looking to domesticate the supply chain.

Network printers have always been a critical concern for information security. With domestically controllable printers, there is now more assurance in terms of security...

I think the biggest danger with printers is honestly just people printing things they shouldn’t or leaving them lying around.

Looks like this is for advance packaging, that patent show very wide field of view and 1/1 image projection.

This one is more for IC patterning, the projected image is reduced like 4X.

I don't think we need to speculate about reasons for byd building it's own fabs.

Byd just likes to build all its own stuff. It's the most vertically integrated company.

China Yida capital continues to expand their investment into semiconductor equipment parts and supplies.​

Yida Capital continues to invest in Star Micro Technology to help localize semiconductor equipment parts​


Recently, Yida Capital completed its investment in Wuxi Star Micro Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Star Micro Technology"). This is also Yida Capital’s second round of investment in Star Micro Technology since its first investment in 2021.
Star Micro Technology was established in 2015, mainly providing precision motion control products for the semiconductor equipment field; it began the design and development of wafer transfer system products in 2017; it developed and produced the core product of the wafer transfer system, the wafer transfer robotic arm, in 2019; starting in 2020 , the company's precision motion platform and transmission system have been shipped in batches for semiconductor quality inspection, pan-semiconductor precision manufacturing and other equipment.

"Semiconductor equipment is composed of thousands of parts. The performance and accuracy of these parts directly affect the reliability and stability of the equipment. It is also a key factor in upgrading and iterating my country's semiconductor manufacturing capabilities." Director of Star Micro Technology Chang Lu Minjie said that from the beginning, the company has chosen two core products, ultra-precision motion platform and wafer transmission equipment, to help localize the "stuck" semiconductor equipment.
Among them, wafer transfer equipment is used to transfer wafers between various semiconductor equipment. It is an essential and key component of all semiconductor manufacturing processes and testing equipment. Star Micro Technology has now achieved the independence of its core components. As domestic substitution of domestic semiconductor equipment parts accelerates, its advantages over overseas brands after mass production will be highlighted in terms of price, delivery time, and service.
The ultra-precision motion platform control system is the core module of wafer lithography, defect detection, chip packaging and other equipment. Its main function is to carry a series of extreme movements such as high-speed and high-precision positioning of wafers and chips according to specified movement trajectories. Compared with the direct sales or agent model adopted by most overseas manufacturers, Star Micro Technology's high-precision motion platform has the advantages of higher cost performance, support for customization, and shorter delivery cycle.
