On October 31, 2024, NATCAST, an operator of the US Department of Commerce and the National Semiconductor Technology Center (NSTC), jointly announced the first chip research and development based on the US "Chip and Science Act"(R & AMP; D) The construction plan for flagship facilities will be created in the Albany Nanotech Complex operating in Ny Creates, New York States State, New York State, to create a ChIPS for America EUV.It is expected to receive support for US $ 825 million in support for federal investment.
According to reports, this EUV accelerator will focus on promoting the most advanced EUV technology and relying on the research and development of this technology.At the same time, the EUV accelerator will also bring together NSTC members from the entire ecosystem to accelerate semiconductor research and development and innovation by providing technical, capabilities and key resources for NSTC members.
It is worth noting that on December 11, 2023, Kathy Hochul, Governor of New York, USA, announced that it has announced that with IBM, Micron, Applied Materials, Tokyo Electronics (Tokyo Electron and other semiconductor plants reached a cooperation agreement, which is expected to invest $ 10 billion in the construction of the next-generation High-NA EUV semiconductor research and development center in the Olbannan nano-technology complex in New York to support the worlds most complex and most powerful semiconductor.R & D.
Obviously, the US Department of Commerce and NSTC are further supporting the project, and the project is made into the development of American chip technologyFlagship facilities.
Gina Raimondo, USA Minister of Commerce, said: "Through the first proposed flagship facilities, the chip bill provides NSTC the opportunity to obtain cutting -edge research and tools for NSTCIts launch represents an important milestone that ensures that the United States maintains the worlds leading position in innovation and semiconductor research and development.Where is the place. Thanks to President Bayeng and Vice President Harris, we have not only produced the worlds most advanced semiconductor; we are building a flexible ecosystem to provide motivation for everything from smartphones to senior artificial intelligence to maintain the United StatesNational security and make the United States compete in the next decades.Entrepreneurs, researchers, and engineers in the field of R & D, the leadership position of the world -class centers of the research and development, "said the national economic adviser Lyle Brened.
EUV lithography technology is essential for manufacturing smaller, faster, and more efficient micro chips.With the limits of Moores Law in the semiconductor industry, EUV lithography technology has become a key technology, which can achieve a large number of more advanced transistor production below 7nm that cannot be achieved before.With the development capabilities and plans of NSTC, obtaining EUV lithography research and development is very important for achieving its three main goals: 1) expanding the leading position of the United States; 2) reducing the time and cost of prototype production; 3) establish and maintain semiconductor labor forceEcosystem.
Laurie E. Locascio, deputy minister and technology of the Ministry of Commerce, said: "NY Creates has 20 years to promote effective public and private partnerships for 20 years to promote effective public and private partnershipsThe mature experience, since its establishment, has invested more than $ 25 billion in the development, manufacturing and labor development of semiconductor, has unique advantages. It can support the mission of NSTC, that is, to provide an open environment to accelerate research, shorten commercialization time, and in the time of commercialization, and in the timeThe United States develops sustainable semiconductor ecosystem.Hanford said."By cooperating with Ny Creates, NATAST and Nstc members will be able to obtain basic EUV lithography tools and processes to promote wider research and accelerate the commercialization of future technology."
Natcast and Ny Creates (a non -profit organization operating an Olbannan nano -technology complex, committed to promoting semiconductor research and development and labor development) is expected to establish EUV accelerators for NSTC members to carry out the next -generation semiconductor research and development activities.EUV accelerators will begin operations in 2025, which will enable members of NATCAT, NY Creates, and NSTC to cooperate with R & D activities, which is essential for the faster commercialization of innovative semiconductor technology and strengthening US technological leadership.The main features of the EUV accelerator are expected to include:
Get the cutting -edge EUV photoresal tool and the next generation of research and development capabilities, including high -value aperture (NA) EUV system. It is expected to reach 2025 to reach 2025Standard NA EUV, will reach High Na EUV in 2026.
Call and promote cooperation with industry, academic and government partners to promote technological innovation.
Special NSTC on -site office to support Natcast and Nstc member researchers.
Support, cultivate, and develop a plan to provide, train and develop talented employee teams.
Strive to increase Nstc members and participation, and at the same time create an open and collaborative R & D environment with all NSTC facilities.
Chips for America Nstc prototype manufacturing and national advanced packaging manufacturing plan (NAPMP) advanced packaging facilities and Chips for American administrative and design facilities are still being launched.The department and NATCAST are expected to announce information about the selection of the subsidiary technology center process in the next few months.
Natcast and Ny Creates signed a memorandum of unreasonable understanding (MOU), which is expected to be expected to be 10 years.The final contract needs to be investigated, continuously negotiated, and improved certain terms.The terms contained in the final contract may be different from the provisions of the memorandum announced.
