Samsung Reportedly to Advance MPW Process to 2nm Next Year

According to Korean media reports, Tae-joon Song, Vice President of Samsung Electronics' Foundry Business Division, stated today that the division will expand its Multi-Project Wafer (MPW) process to 2 nanometers next year. The 2nm process is currently the most advanced commercially available process. Due to its extremely high manufacturing complexity, it is currently only used in specific ultra-high-performance semiconductor fields such as AI and HPC. This move is expected to accelerate the development of ultra-high-performance AI semiconductors by domestic fabless companies in South Korea.
