U.S. startup Substrate claims to have developed a chipmaking tool that can rival ASML's advanced lithography equipment. This innovation is the first step in their plan to establish a U.S.-based contract chip-manufacturing business, aiming to significantly reduce chipmaking costs and compete with TSMC. The company has secured $100 million in funding and attracted interest from government officials.
