- impulser_ 4y agoMost semiconductor equipment manufactoring companies don't really compete with anyone. This includes ASML, Applied Materials, Lam Research, and KLAC. They might overlap a bit but their main business are usually monopolies due to how advance and specific the technology is. You aren't going to find many companies wanting to join in because they are just going to be WAY far behind the leaders and in this field only the best get their equipment bought because of how expensive mistakes can be.
