You actually most likely can't afford the risk of running a contaminated fab.
You just can't get economically viable yields under contamination; if you could, why would all those fabs care about keeping a very clean environment in the first place?
- waste_monk 3y agoSure, I get that. I meant that China has ~1.4 billion people and one of the largest economies in the world. If they really wanted to get a contaminated fab back into operational condition they could throw effectively unlimited manpower and resources into cleaning it up. Thus it would be better to blow the place up and not have to worry about it.
