According to the Zhiyun Finance APP, Frank Rohmund, head of the Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology Department at Zeiss, stated in an interview that the company is confident in meeting the surge in demand and has initiated a "real, long-term" capacity expansion project. This expansion not only concerns Zeiss's own performance growth but directly determines the upper limit of capacity for the world's most advanced chip manufacturing. The German group Zeiss, the sole manufacturer of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography machines, is responding to widespread concerns about supply chain bottlenecks for AI chips with a decisive capacity expansion and a 15-year technical roadmap.
