ASM International
ALD deposition leader for GAA transistors
ASM International is the global leader in atomic layer deposition (ALD), the enabling process for gate-all-around (GAA) transistors at 2nm and below. As the industry moves from FinFET to GAA nanosheets, ASM's ALD tools become indispensable to every leading-edge foundry, making this second Dutch equipment champion a quiet complement to ASML in the sub-2nm transition.
