      For people like me who didn’t know what it is:

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_ultraviolet_lithography

      > Extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL, also known simply as EUV) is a technology used in the semiconductor industry for manufacturing integrated circuits. It is a type of photolithography that uses 13.5 nm extreme ultraviolet light from a laser-pulsed tin plasma to create intricate patterns on semiconductor substrates.

      > As of 2025, ASML Holding is the only company that produces and sells EUV systems for chip production, targeting 5 nanometer and 3 nanometer process nodes, though Reuters reported in December 2025 that China had developed its own prototype EUV system.

      Physics and science work the same no matter where you are. Technological advancement is a function of investment in terms of people, resources and time. Given how laser focused China is with chipmaking, it’s not a surprise that this will eventually come.

      There’s little that can be done to stop China from designing its own chip technology.

      I hope for the world’s sake that this is true. For too long the progress in anything semi conductors was held back by the lack of cheap fabs.

      Just look at the DRAM prices.

      Lithographer here – this is one small step forward, so not a large concern…yet.

      it’s called a Woozel

      every article is quoting the same CCP statement

      USA falling behind yet again. Guess that’s what happens when the population gets dumber and lazier

      ASML had already moved onto EXE machines so china is still 10 years behind the rest of the world, but this is a huge jump for them regardless.

      For all it’s faults, a big focus of China’s government is advancement. Both funding and subsidising new tech and production.

      You cannot say the west can hold a candle to their determination. Here in Australia, the core focus of the gov is to pump house prices and enrich mates. Pump immigration as high as people will tolerate (3x oecd average). That’s it. Instead of throwing money at progress we only throw it at the housing bubble. The rest of the world isn’t too distant just focusing on fringe woke issues and cutting taxes for the rich.

      The long run isn’t going to work out well for the West. We already cower and hide whenever China makes a push.

      The stock market’s reactions basically shows that this is a big deal. ASML down 3.81% today.

      „Reportedly“ says the CCP which can totally be trusted in every way. Right? RIGHT?

      China is investing heavily in STEM and very forward looking. Meanwhile the GOP in the US, the republicunts are too must pillaging what they can now and trying to dismantle the department of education.

      The US is doomed, it’s fallen too far behind. I fear there is no way to fix it.

      idk why governments thought ASML is the company that can ever make EUV machines. They’re only strengthening China.

    18. Chr1sUK on

      ASML is Dutch, not American. Article seems to suggest China catching up on American chip manufacturing, which in the EUV instance is wrong.

      Whilst i absolutely believe this can be true, i take this with a grain of salt given the recent reports that they tried to reverse engineer an asml machine and then broke it, calling the company for repairs

    20. SquishedPea on

      Maybe stop shuffling that $15Billion among these few top companies just dumping into OpenAi maybe invest in R&D

    23. smudgeonalense on

      According to Reuters they reverse engineered this machine using Chinese former employees of ASML. So ya know maybe we in the West need to be more selective in our hiring processes.

    24. fromkatain on

      It was made by former chinese asml employees and they used fake names on their id badges but recognised eachother.
