TSMC plans to begin 16nm finfet production early 2015.. although they're doing it so they can supply apple and keep up with samsung (who also supply apple and have plans for 14nm/16nm).
nvidia's parker is suppose to use finfet and they're a customer of TSMC.. but parker will be a 64-bit arm cpu for servers/mobile devices.
