: Don’t install it anymore? ASML officially "changed its face", engineers changed their attitude: China can also make it
After the United States revised the chip rules many times, the development of my country's Huawei and other technology companies was directly blocked; although Huawei can independently develop advanced 5n m HiSilicon Kirin processor chip, but because Huawei has no layout in the field of chip production, and there are no domestic manufacturers that can OEM for Huawei, Huawei's self-developed HiSilicon Kirin chips can only be reduced to paper; and the reason why China cannot produce advanced 5nm chips is mainly because we lack advanced EUV lithography machines!
Currently in the global market, the only manufacturer that can produce advanced EUV lithography machines is , the Dutch ASML company , and the United States has long restricted the shipment of ASML's advanced EUV lithography machines. , so even if we have money, we can't buy an EUV lithography machine; since we can't buy it, we can only develop it independently. When ASML saw that China was going to enter the field of EUV lithography, ASML's executives directly made a big statement: Even if the drawings of EUV lithography machines were made public, China would not be able to build them; but is this really the case?
You must know that although ASML can produce advanced EUV lithography machines, an advanced EUV lithography machine has more than 100,000 parts, and these parts come from thousands of suppliers around the world, so ASML is just an assembly; if you want to master the production of EUV lithography machines, We still need to secure the supply of parts; but ASML has also forgotten that EUV lithography machines are man-made, not made by gods, and China is still the world's largest manufacturing base. As long as we are determined to independently develop it, there is nothing we can't handle; now ASML is no longer pretending, and has begun to "change its face", and the attitude of its engineers has also undergone a 180-degree change: China can also make it!
After China decided to develop its own semiconductor industry chain, our country formulated a five-year plan for the development of domestic chips. It will achieve a 70% self-sufficiency rate for domestic chips by 2025. In order to achieve this goal, many domestic technology companies have begun to accelerate their development and layout in the semiconductor field. According to Data shows that in the past few years, the number of new semiconductor-related companies in China has exceeded 20,000. my country's Chinese Academy of Sciences, Tsinghua University and other institutions have also launched research and development of lithography machines, and have made breakthroughs in the three core parts of the lithography machine: the double workbench, the objective lens and the extreme ultraviolet light source. This means that we can indeed build a lithography machine!
It is worth mentioning that in addition to developing advanced photolithography machines in China, we are also developing more advanced optoelectronic chips and quantum chip technology. Compared with traditional silicon-based chips, electronic chips, photonic chips It has the advantages of fast speed and low power consumption, and the country's first "multi-material, multi-size" photonic chip production line is also under construction; with optical quantum chip technology, we can also bypass the limitations of EUV lithography machines, so this also makes ASML unable to install, and began to change its face, wanting to please the Chinese market, in exchange for more market share !
You must know that the Chinese market is the world's largest semiconductor chip consumer market, and it is also the world's largest lithography machine market. Under the restrictions of the United States, the shipments of many of ASML's lithography machines have been restricted, and now the United States wants to further restrict the shipments of ASML's DUV lithography machines, which are ASML's main products. It needs a source of revenue, so ASML has refused, saying that ASML is a European company, not controlled by the United States, and its engineers have also changed their attitude: China can also make it, but it will take more time; obviously ASML is also anxious now, and can only use the method of pleasing the Chinese market in exchange for more market share, but we cannot be paralyzed by ASML. Domestic products can only go further by insisting on independent research and development; I don’t know what you think of this?
