Tech war: China leads US in quantity, quality of semiconductor research, report finds | South China Morning Post
Chinese scholars published 160,852 semiconductor-related papers from 2018 to 2023, more than the next three ranked countries combined.
China is producing twice as many research papers as the US on chip design and fabrication, laying the foundation for a possible leadership role in next-generation semiconductor technology, according to a US think tank. While China is behind in advanced semiconductors and is restricted from buying high-end chipmaking tools such as the extreme ultraviolet lithography system developed by Dutch firm ASML, Chinese scholars published a total of 160,852 chip-related papers from 2018 to 2023, more than the next three ranked countries combined, according to the Emerging Technology Observatory (ETO) at Georgetown University. China’s lead in chip research comes amid the country’s push for self-reliance in the semiconductor industry to counter sanctions imposed by Washington over national security concerns.
