航空发动机和光刻机分别代表了人类科技发展的水平，都可以算得上是工业皇冠上的夺目的明珠。目前，我国航空发动机已经有了长足的进步，那么，我国的光刻机发展现状如何？这种誉为新时代“两弹一星”级别的“神器”我国能赶超欧美吗？

由于光刻机技术极端复杂，经过多年竞争，目前由原荷兰飞利浦公司发展而来的ASML（阿斯麦）公司一家独大，占据大部分市场份额，日本的两家光刻机公司（尼康和佳能）苟延残喘，基本上已退出光刻机市场 。面对飞速发展的国际半导体行业，我国却被远远甩在了后面。

▲ STEKI电磁元件在光刻机领域迎来阶段性突破

众所周知，华为在芯片领域的成就非常喜人，但是即便是自己能够研发出芯片了，但是没有光刻机还是不能批量生产。近中美贸易冲突下，中国芯片产业如何突围?

进入21世纪后，我国重新开展了光刻机的研发工作，并成立了专门的研发公司——上海微电子装备有限公司（SMEE）。目前，STEKI上海公司与上海微电子公司建立合作伙伴关系，工程创新团队联合攻关，在其中一类关键零部件电磁元件领域已获得多项突破性成果，并予以实际应用成功，即将进入量产阶段。

随着上述关键技术的研发成功以及再给我国5至8年时间，我国光科技技术将站上地位，那时，我国芯片产业将迎来一片曙光。

STEKI electromagnetic components made a breakthrough in the field of lithography

Aero-engine and lithography machine represent the top level of human technology development, and can be regarded as the dazzling pearl of the industrial crown. At present, China's Aero-engine has made great progress. So, what is the current status of China's lithography machine development? In this kind of "two bombs and one star" class "artifact" in the new era can China catch up with Europe and America?

Due to the extremely complicated lithography technology, after years of competition, ASML (Asma), which was developed from the original Philips of Netherlands, is now the dominant company in this area, occupying most of the market share, while the two Japanese lithography companies (Nikon and Canon) are still struggling, and have basically withdrawn from the lithography market. Facing the rapid development of the international semiconductor industry, China is far behind.

As we all know, Huawei has made great achievements in the chip field, but even if it can develop the chip itself, it still can't be mass-produced without lithography machine. Under the recent Sino-US trade conflict, how does China's chip industry break through?

After entering the 21st century, China has restarted the research and development of lithography machine and established a special research and development company -- Shanghai microelectronic equipment co., LTD. (SMEE). At present, STEKI Shanghai has established a cooperative partnership with SMEE, and the engineering innovation team has worked together to solve key problems. In the field of one of the key electromagnetic components, STEKI Shanghai has achieved a number of breakthroughs, which have been successfully applied in practice and are about to enter the mass production stage.

With the successful development of the above-mentioned key technologies and five to eight years time for China, China's optical technology will stand on the world's leading position, at that time, China's chip industry will usher in a dawn.
