Huawei Plans 1.4-Nanometer Chip Production by 2031 Using New Technology

Huawei Technologies announced plans to produce 1.4-nanometer chips by 2031 using its new 'LogicFolding' technology and the 'Tau Scaling Law,' aiming to narrow the gap with industry leader TSMC, which targets similar chips by 2028. This approach seeks to enhance chip performance without relying on advanced lithography equipment restricted by US sanctions. Huawei has developed hundreds of chips based on this principle and aims to advance China's semiconductor self-sufficiency amid export controls.
