Moreover, Samsung Electronics has been in contact with at least 4 potential suppliers, all of which are Japanese manufacturers, including the world’s largest photoresist supplier Tokyo Ying Chemical Industry, but sources revealed that none of them meet the requirements of Samsung Electronics.
The sources mentioned in the report that Samsung Electronics has contacted Japanese photoresist suppliers many times to find new suppliers, but they have never been able to meet the requirements in terms of thickness.
Tokyo Ying Chemical Industry and other manufacturers are unable to request it, which means that Samsung Electronics will still use DONJIN SEMIKEN’s photoresist when producing 3D NAND flash memory in the future. It will remain the exclusive supplier for some time to come.
