$400M R&D center to be built in Albany.Gov. George E. Pataki in his 11th Annual State of the State Message, announced that ASML Holding ASML is a Dutch company and the world’s primary supplier of lithography systems for the semiconductor industry. Of all the major chip producers worldwide, more than 80% are ASML customers. NV and IBM (International Business Machines Corporation, Armonk, NY, www.ibm.com) The world's largest computer company. IBM's product lines include the S/390 mainframes (zSeries), AS/400 midrange business systems (iSeries), RS/6000 workstations and servers (pSeries), Intel-based servers (xSeries) Corporation will create a $400 million nanochip research and development at the Albany Center of Excellence in Nanoelectronics. The new International Multiphase Mul´ti`phase a. 1. (Elec.) Having many phases; Adj. 1. multiphase - of an electrical system that uses or generates two or more alternating voltages of the same frequency but differing in phase angle Partnership for Lithography Science and Engineering (IMPLSE) is ASML's first R&D center outside Europe and will bring together a network of over 50 high tech companies from across New York New York, state, United States New York, Middle Atlantic state of the United States. It is bordered by Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and the Atlantic Ocean (E), New Jersey and Pennsylvania (S), Lakes Erie and Ontario and the Canadian province of . The new center will bring together global technical expertise and state-of-the-art resources in nanoscale lithography to the ever expanding 300mm wafer Albany NanoTech complex, home of the UAlbany Center of Excellence and the recently created college for nanotechnology, the most advanced such complex of any university in the world. Lithography is the complex printing of circuit patterns on silicon wafers to create nanochips, and is universally recognized as the most important technology driver in the nanoelectronics industry. The agreement between New York, ASML ASML Abstract State Machine Language ASML Anisotropic Shielded Microstrip Line , and IBM includes approximately $400 million in State and industry support over the next five years. The $75 million State investment will be primarily for capital construction, equipment and specialized tools for research. |
