ABSTRACT
After the explosion of new fab activity in the
closing months of 2003, it is not surprising that new fab announcements
have fallen. However, this quarter is remarkable in defining the
Japanese renaissance in semiconductor manufacturing with a flurry of
300-mm fab announcements that now compete in number with Taiwan and the
United States. Contrary to traditional scale and cost trends, Japanese
IDM's have implemented the ‘mini fab' concept almost on mass.
