Japan's Semiconductor Team Rapidus Claims Successful 2nm Chip Trial, Raises Skepticism from South Korea

Japan's semiconductor national team, Rapidus, recently announced the successful trial production of its 2nm chip, achieving this milestone in just one-third of the time taken by TSMC and Samsung. This announcement has elicited strong reactions from South Korea, which expressed skepticism about the reliability of Rapidus's claims, criticizing the high costs and lack of customers. Many experts believe that Rapidus may eventually sell its technology to TSMC.
