"Every step requires a permit ... High-NA EUV tools are significantly larger than the current-generation Low-NA EUV tools, so TSMC will have to once again change design of their fabs.

ASML has had (at least until recently) a monopoly on extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography ... Nonetheless, TSMC has established a technical lead in chip production, allowing it to claim 62% ...

With chipmakers like Intel and TSMC broadly adopting EUV technology for advanced chip manufacturing processes, Intel said investments by TSMC and Bain Capital will provide IMS “increased ...

EUV stands for extreme ultraviolet, the wavelength of light used by ASML’s most advanced machines. “TSMC will bring in high-NA EUV scanners in 2024 to develop the associated infrastructure and ...

The visit by Fouquet and other ASML officials also aims to encourage TSMC to accelerate and increase its orders for the costly extreme ultraviolet (High NA EUV) equipment, priced at about US$380 ...

Its rivals Samsung and TSMC were the first to adopt extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography technology. Now, Intel is making sure that it is the first to adopt the second generation of the EUV tools ...

However, wider adoption of these machines is likely years away. TSMC has indicated it doesn't currently need high-NA EUV technology to manufacture current-generation high-end chips. ASML ...
