Not news, Japan was already doing 2nm since the late 1990's.... They are not rushing useless less than 12nm products when the game that pays more are the 45-90nmfor space satelites or vehicles that are resistant to atmospheric disruptions.... People are not interested in hyper frequency devices and what is availiable nowvis more than adecuate for 95% of the people, we are more interested in more security on ous devices and the elimination of bugs and errors thst make our life more secure.... We would like more software perfection on existing devices and quantum encription to connect with our banking needs isolated from the surfing or telephone streems....
Japan's semiconductor ambitions take a significant leap as Rapidus plans to deploy 10 advanced EUV lithography systems. The chipmaker aims to begin 2nm chip trial production by April 2025, challenging established players like TSMC and Samsung in the cutting-edge semiconductor manufacturing space.
