The first ArF photoresist production line by Nanda Optoelectronics has been officially put into production. It is estimated that the annual sales will reach 1 billion yuan after the project is fully operational.
Photoresist 光刻胶 is the core material for the production of integrated circuits, which mainly plays the role of “transferring the designed image from the template to the appropriate position on the wafer surface”. Therefore, the quality and performance of the photoresist have an important impact on the final product and performance of the chip. High-end types such as ArF photoresist almost rely 100% on imports.
