Semiconductor Performance Bottleneck
The global semiconductor industry faced a significant bottleneck due to the limitations of ASML's EUV lithography machines, which were the only equipment capable of printing chip features below 7 nanometers. This led to a performance gap between China's chips and those of leading manufacturers like TSMC. The industry relied on a 60-year-old performance metric that became outdated.
