Japan is attempting to gradually render thousands of operational DUV lithography machines in Chinese chip factories obsolete. This is not an exaggeration.

Imagine this: In a top Chinese wafer fabrication plant, a Nikon or Canon immersion DUV lithography machine, worth hundreds of millions of dollars, suddenly stops working. The entire production line grinds to a halt.

After investigation, engineers discover the problem is simply a critical laser component that has reached the end of its lifespan.

Previously, this was easily resolved with a phone call and an email; engineers and spare parts from the Japanese manufacturer would arrive on-site within days.

But now, the application process is indefinitely delayed, and the only response received is: "Still under review."

Consequently, this piece of equipment, which could still operate efficiently, becomes the most expensive and frustrating roadblock on the entire production line, all because of a component that could be easily replaced.

The current situation shows that Japan initially underestimated China's capabilities and response strategies.

So, will Japan's plan truly succeed?

And what countermeasures has China adopted?
