In the past two years, my country's semiconductor industry has developed rapidly. However, compared with technology giants such as the United States, the technology is still lagging behind others. However, the self-developed technology and equipment produced by domestic manufacturers can reach the world's leading level. level. The most successful case is etching machine equipment. The etching machines developed by domestic chip companies have broken overseas technology monopoly.
Many people don’t know that the etching machine is no less important than the photolithography machine. Both are key equipment for the production of high-end chips.
However, my country's photolithography equipment has always been in a very backward state, making it difficult for domestic semiconductor manufacturers to produce high-end chip processes. However, etching machines are particularly advanced in our country and are more than sufficient for the production of next-generation new high-end process chips.
It is understood that the high-precision etching machine developed by China Micro Semiconductor has reached 5nm, which is the top of domestic high-end semiconductor equipment and a force that cannot be ignored in the international semiconductor industry. In the global semiconductor equipment company satisfaction survey, AMEC ranked third in the world, which also shows that many customers highly recognize AMEC's ??products.
You must know that the great achievements that China Micro Semiconductor can achieve today are completely inseparable from Yin Zhiyao, the founder of China Micro Semiconductor. Yin Zhiyao holds more than 200 patents from various countries and 86 U.S. patents, and in Silicon Valley in the United States He is also one of the Chinese people with certain influence. At the age of 60, Yin Zhiyao was honored and decided to return to China with his team to start a business.
Yin Zhiyao returned to China with his team, founded China Microelectronics Semiconductor Company, and started research and development of etching machine equipment. In just a few years, China Microelectronics Semiconductor Company developed the first-generation dielectric etching machine. The etching machine uses dual reverse stages that operate independently. The efficiency of this equipment is 30% higher than that of other etching machines. China Microelectronics has also gained a good reputation in the market.
As China Micro Semiconductor’s innovative technologies continued to be produced, for a period of time, China Micro Semiconductor was resolutely blocked by the United States’ technology. It was not until 2015 that the United States gave up on China Microelectronics’ technology. blockade.
In the 11th year since the establishment of China Micro Semiconductor, China Micro Semiconductor once again developed the first most advanced 5nm etching machine. Since then, China's 5nm etching machine has established 5nm etching machine technology in the world. leading position.
Today, AMEC's ??5nm etching machine equipment has been purchased from chip foundry companies such as TSMC. Currently, from the perspective of the domestic chip industry chain, AMEC can already maintain long-term supply technology.
