>U.S. Undersecretary of Energy Ernest Moniz said, “if the EUV technology proves viable, ASML has agreed to build a factory in the U.S., similar to its Netherlands facility, as well as to establish an American research and development center. The factory will supply 100 percent of all ASML's sales in the United States.”
Did this actually happen? Does Intel buy ASML machines?
- throwawaysea 5y agoI am not actually sure, but ASML does have a US R&D and manufacturing presence. Their largest site is in CT (https://www.asml.com/en/company/about-asml/locations/wilton-ct https://www.asml.com/en/company/about-asml/locations/wilton-...). As for Intel, they bought a 15% stake in ASML in 2012 (https://www.reuters.com/article/us-intel-asml-idUSBRE86819B20120709 https://www.reuters.com/article/us-intel-asml-idUSBRE86819B2...) and ASML is have suspected to have sold machines to Intel subsequently (https://www.kitguru.net/components/graphic-cards/anton-shilov/asml-sells-15-euv-lithography-scanners-possibly-to-intel/ https://www.kitguru.net/components/graphic-cards/anton-shilo...). However, Intel may have not needed as many machines because they were able to avoid depending on EUV for some nodes (https://www.reuters.com/article/asml-intel-idUSL8N1AY2H4 https://www.reuters.com/article/asml-intel-idUSL8N1AY2H4).
