    "excerpt": "Qnity opens new US facility to expand CMP materials production.\n\nUS semiconductor materials supplier Qnity electronics has opened a new manufacturing facility in newark, delaware, aimed at expanding production capacity for chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) materials used in chip fabrication.\n\nThe 385,000-square-foot site forms part of a multi-year investment programme to strengthen the company's domestic manufacturing footprint and address growing demand for semiconductor materials driven by artificial intelligence, high-performance computing and advanced connectivity applications.\n\nThe facility's first manufacturing line will produce components for CMP pads - polishing discs used during wafer processing to smooth the chip surface between manufacturing steps. The company said the line is designed to support the increasing requirements of advanced semiconductor nodes.\n\nCMP materials are expected to see rising demand as AI processors and other advanced chips require more polishing steps during fabrication, increasing the number of CMP processes performed per wafer.\n\nAccording to Qnity, expanding its US manufacturing capacity is intended to improve supply reliability and support customer demand as semiconductor production continues to grow globally.\n\nIndustry forecasts suggest the global semiconductor market could approach USD 1 trillion in annual revenue in the coming...",
