Für den weltweiten Klimaschutz spielen die USA im "Super-Wahljahr" 2024 eine herausragende Rolle. Denn nach bisher dreieinhalb Jahren, in denen Präsident Joe Biden immense Erfolge im Klimaschutz gelangen, könnte ihm nun laut aktuellen Prognosen Donald Trump folgen. Trump nutzte bereits seine...

Spätestens seitdem Russland nordkoreanische Artillerie und ballistische Raketen gegen die Ukraine eingesetzt hat, ist offensichtlich, dass Pjöngjang weit über Nordostasien hinaus Konflikte schürt. Die Qualität, mit der Nordkorea Europas Sicherheit und Stabilität mittelbar bedroht, ist...

Der US-amerikanische Halbleiterkonzern Intel plant, zwei hochmoderne Chipfabriken in der Nähe von Magdeburg zu bauen. Mit knapp 10 Milliarden Euro wurde diesem Projekt die größte industriepolitische Förderung versprochen, die die Bundesregierung je einem einzelnen Unternehmen zugesagt hat....

Since the beginning of the pandemic in 2020, the European Union has experienced unprecedented disruptions in the semiconductor value chain. To respond to the crisis and enhance the resilience of the supply chain, the European Commission has proposed the European Chips Act, which includes the...

In this article, we present an analysis of how East Asian states (specifically, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan) are adapting to the emerging geopolitical contexts of the "great powers competition" between the United States and China. To the extent that the previous literature on GPN/GVC...

The US semiconductor company Intel is planning to build two ultra-modern chip factories near Magdeburg. This project was promised the largest industrial policy subsidy that the German government has ever approved for an individual company: almost 10 billion euros. Is this money well-spent? To...

A shared-use semiconductor research infrastructure can be studied as a local innovation ecosystem consisting of the infrastructure operating company and the user companies. The level of open innovation for sustainability activities possible to initiate in the infrastructure is affected by the...

This article uses a nonparametric production frontier approach to investigate the operating efficiency differences by the impacts of capital expenditure and business model in the global semiconductor industry. Handling the impact of capital expenditure as a fixed input by the directional...

Subsidies to the semiconductor industry have been massive ever since chips were created in the 1950s. Yet, semiconductor subsidies have never been challenged in the GATT or WTO, and rarely in bilateral commercial relations. Reasons suggest a permanent vacuum of subsidy discipline for this and...

This study, which focuses on Chinese semiconductor companies, explores the relationship between government support (GS), proactive market orientation (PMO), science and technology (S&T) employees input (STEI), S&T employees management (STEM), and innovation performance (IP). In addition,...

Wie EU-Kommissionspräsidentin von der Leyen bei ihrem Besuch im Weißen Haus ankündigte, will die EU ihre Exportkontrollen für Dual-Use-Produkte und neue Technologien erneuern und enger mit US-Maßnahmen abstimmen. Da die EU-Staaten China zunehmend als sicherheitspolitische Bedrohung...

With the launch of a new Korean government in May 2022 that places importance on future cooperation with Japan, cooperation between Korea and Japan in the so-called economic security field, including semiconductors, is expected to emerge as a new cooperation agenda. However, the agreement in the...

The semiconductor supply chain (SSC) was examined in this study for the effects of interruptions like the Covid-19 epidemic, and the resilience factors related to it were determined. With the use of Anylogistix's digital twin (DT), a simulation model was created using real-world disruption...

This study deals with the scheduling problem to minimize makespan at a wet clean station in semiconductor fabrication. The wet clean station is comprised of sequential chemical and rinsing baths for cleaning wafer lots and multiple robot arms for lot handling. In the station, wafer lots are...

Purpose – This study addresses the development of China’s semiconductor industry in the context of the U.S.-China trade conflict, and analyzes the impact on other industries.Design/Methodology/Approach – Based on the multi-regional input-output table industry splitting method, the...

Semiconductors are a critical input to production of information and communication technology and many other goods. The major economies want to be able to produce chips at home to avoid excessive dependence on supply chains in an increasingly unpredictable world, where trade is being compromised...

The sharp confrontation between the US and China in high-tech industries continues. Securing and protecting the competitiveness of advanced technologies such as semiconductors and artificial intelligence (AI) are emerging as key issues in external economic security, and the US government...

■ Korea's semiconductor exports have been heavily concentrated in the highly volatile memory sector, making the industry more vulnerable to downturns.- As of 2022, the proportion of the highly volatile memory semiconductor sector within Korea's semiconductor market was more than twice that of...
