IBM and Rapidus announced a joint development partnership to advance logic scaling technologies as part of Japan's initiative to become a global leader in semiconductor research, development and manufacturing. Rapidus researches, develops, designs, manufactures and markets advanced logic semiconductors, and was established with the support of major Japanese companies. As part of the agreement, Rapidus and IBM will further develop IBM's breakthrough 2 nanometer (nm) node technology, to be implemented by Rapidus' facilities in Japan.
This effort will leverage IBM's decades of expertise in semiconductor research and design. in 2021, IBM announced that it has developed the world's first 2 nm node chip, which is expected to achieve 45 percent better performance or 75 percent better energy efficiency than the leading 7 nm chip. IBM has a long history of successful joint development with Japanese semiconductor manufacturers in advanced logic and memory technologies partnerships, as well as Japanese equipment and materials suppliers. As part of the agreement, Rapidus scientists and engineers will work with IBM Japan and IBM researchers at the Albany NanoTech Complex, owned and operated by NY CREATES in Albany, N.Y., one of the world's most advanced semiconductor research facilities. Rapidus is the latest entity to join the Albany NanoTech Complex ecosystem the newest entity to join the Albany NanoTech Complex, which includes IBM, Applied Materials, Samsung Electronics, Tokyo Electron, SCREEN, JSR, State University of New York (SUNY) and others. Rapidus is planning to deploy differentiation strategies in manufacturing, including automation and efficiency, to ensure speed to market and competitiveness. This 2nm technology is designed to be a market leader and will be compatible with industry standard products. rapidus expects to begin mass production of its 2nm technology in the second half of the 2020s.
