From a report: The Tokyo-based company&#8217;s new chipmaking machines can produce circuits equivalent to 5-nanometer scale when using extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUV), a field dominated by industry leader ASML Holding NV. Canon expects its device to reach next-generation 2nm production with further advances and improvements, it said in a statement on Friday. Like domestic peer Nikon Corp., Canon has fallen far behind ASML in the EUV race, but its nanoimprint lithography approach may help it close the gap. <\/p>\n<p>Canon&#8217;s machinery may also add a new front in the US-China trade war, as the import of EUV machines &#8212; so far the only reliable method for fabricating 5nm chips and smaller &#8212; into China is prohibited by trade sanctions. The Japanese firm&#8217;s technique skips photolithography altogether and instead impresses the desired circuit pattern onto the silicon wafer. Because of its novelty, it&#8217;s unlikely to be expressly forbidden by existing trade curbs.<\/p>\n<p \/>\n<div class=\"share_submission\" style=\"position:relative\">\n<a class=\"slashpop\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/home?status=Canon+Begins+Selling+Chip+Machines+To+Rival+World's+Best+by+ASML%3A+https%3A%2F%2Ftech.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F23%2F10%2F13%2F1521226%2F%3Futm_source%3Dtwitter%26utm_medium%3Dtwitter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/twitter_icon_large-503.png\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a class=\"slashpop\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftech.slashdot.org%2Fstory%2F23%2F10%2F13%2F1521226%2Fcanon-begins-selling-chip-machines-to-rival-worlds-best-by-asml%3Futm_source%3Dslashdot%26utm_medium%3Dfacebook\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/facebook_icon_large-251.png\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tech.slashdot.org\/story\/23\/10\/13\/1521226\/canon-begins-selling-chip-machines-to-rival-worlds-best-by-asml?utm_source=rss1.0moreanon&amp;utm_medium=feed\">Read more of this story<\/a> at Slashdot.<\/p>\n<p>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Slashdot &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/tech.slashdot.org\/story\/23\/10\/13\/1521226\/canon-begins-selling-chip-machines-to-rival-worlds-best-by-asml?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Canon Begins Selling Chip Machines To Rival World&#8217;s Best by ASML<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Canon has begun selling its nanoimprint semiconductor manufacturing systems, seeking to claw back market share by positioning the technology as a simpler and more attainable alternative to the leading-edge tools of today.
