It's probably UMC.65nm is sufficiently good for military applications. I heard Russia has hired a lot of Taiwanese (TSMC?) engineers to help them build fabs in Russia, paying over $200K a year per person.

So I just take a look at the original paper (not that I would understand)90nm is the single feature resolution, it can be described as a simple equation based on the characteristic of the dry SMEE DUV machine, the light source is 193nm wavelength, the NA of the optics is 0.75, so the resolution is k * LS / NA 0.35 * (193 / 0.75) = 90 nm, this is the maximum resolution without any other enhancement like multiple pattern or computational lithography. Add better optics and you can get a better resolution. Add an immersion system and you can increase the resolution even more, but most of the resolution increase in DUVL after 45nm comes from the software, not the hardware, so ASML is right to worry about the boost of lithography from China because computational lithography is an area that the Chinese are really hard at work.
Taiwan treats the Taiwanese like slaves. And they are.It's probably UMC.
Korea semiconductor will not move ahead, due to China taking most of the sales from the Koreans. The Korean semiconductor industry will crumble further very soon due to lack of scale and resource.Germany/France/Belgium/Netherlands/Italy/Austria/Swiss are niche? CERN is in Europe.
There are alot of Russian and East Europeans work in Western EU tech environment.
this only known example of former employees of IMEC making a fab tech. now this mapper Dutch part is acquired by ASML.
Intel saved by Israeli design and manufacturing. Israel is part of EU horizon and have association agreement.
Korea will keep moving ahead of Japan and Taiwan. It has the money and political skills.
If Taiwan keep itself attached to Japan only and not create business with Korea than Korea will use EU/ Russia to kick both of them. they will not know what happened.
The point is EU and Russia are very sophisticated. it is not very apparent.
Nothing to worry.@horse @Overbom and @FairAndUnbiased bro I'm been thinking with our topic regarding on Taipei and Seoul Spring, is the American cajoling the Chinese to launch a Pearl Harbor type attack? the situation may not be serious like that of the Japanese before WW2 but the tactics are eerily similar, replacing oil with chips. Maybe I'm been over thinking it and at least the Chinese leaderships are all student of history and may had studied it.
no because unlike oil, you can make chips. Japan also had zero domestic reserves of oil but China has significant domestic production of chips.@horse @Overbom and @FairAndUnbiased bro I've been thinking with our topic regarding the Taipei and Seoul Spring, is the American cajoling the Chinese to launch a Pearl Harbor type attack? the situation may not be serious like that of the Japanese before WW2 but the tactics are eerily similar, replacing oil with chips.

@FairAndUnbiased @Micron thanks brother, yup I'm overthinking it , just like you said Chip is manmade and China can produce it , appreciated.no because unlike oil, you can make chips. Japan also had zero domestic reserves of oil but China has significant domestic production of chips.
That is important because if your production is exactly zero, then no amount of rationing, saving, increased production, etc. can save you. You can't produce some oil from zero oil reserves.
But since China has nonzero and indeed, significant chip supplies, the result of total semiconductor embargo is actually Chinese companies attain 100% market share in China. Same with actual oil. China actually produces more oil than UAE. So the result of an oil embargo is not China running out of energy but actually 100% domestic market share goes to Chinese oil companies and incentivizing NEV production. There's nothing they can do about China.
