, according to industry insiders, TSMC will start a pilot plan, and it is expected that the latest 2nm (1nm) process will be located in Taoyuan Longtan Park under the Hsinchu Science Park. TSMC responded today (31): It does not rule out any possibility, and continues to evaluate the land suitable for semiconductor factory construction in Taiwan.
According to the Taiwan media "Business Times", industry insiders said that since TSMC already has two advanced packaging and testing plants in Longke, coupled with Zhuke's geographical and talent support, "this is the best location." The report predicts that TSMC's 1nm process will be mass-produced in 2027.
In this regard, according to the Taiwan media "Central News Agency", TSMC responded that there are many considerations in choosing the location of the factory. TSMC will continue to invest in advanced manufacturing processes in Taiwan, China, and will not rule out any possibility. It will continue to evaluate the land suitable for semiconductor factory construction in Taiwan. . Everything is based on the company's official announcement.
It is reported that the Longtan Park Base under Zhuke has about 7,000 employees and an overall annual turnover of more than NT$50 billion. The projects in which are mainly integrated circuits, , optoelectronics and biotechnology industries, etc., have included TSMC, Hejing Technology, Apple Branch and other industries have settled in.
In 2021, TSMC, National Taiwan University and MIT jointly developed a new semiconductor material, bismuth, claiming that it can greatly reduce resistance and increase transmission current, which will help to break through the Moore's Law limit in the future. This research result was jointly completed by Wu Zhiyi, a professor of the Department of Electrical Engineering and Institute of Optoelectronics, National Taiwan University, and the research teams of TSMC and MIT. It has been published in the international journal Nature, and it will help meet the challenges of semiconductor manufacturing processes below 1nm.
