Samsung Boss Lee fled Germany to discuss potential partnerships with ZEISS. The official toured to ZEISS headquarters in Oberkochen and discussed cooperation in the nanometer processes field.
Per the announcement, Samsung plans to lead the sub 3nm ultra-fine process in the foundry market and start mass production of 6th-generation, 10-nanometer DRAMs using EUV processes by the end of the year.
This news comes right after TSMC revealed its roadmap of production on the 1.6nm process. The Korean tech giant is confident that its Gate-All-Around (GAA) tech will make it the market leader in the 2nm process.
“Collaboration with ZEISS will enable us to improve the performance and production processes of next-generation semiconductors and increase yield,” Samsung Electronics said.

Galaxy Camera x ZEISS
ZEISS-branded camera come in vivo smartphones, hence, this collaboration is unlikely as Samsung doesn’t want any other branding for Galaxy’s camera. The company uses ISOCELL and Sony image sensors in Galaxy devices.
Previously, it was rumored that Samsung considering collaborating with Olympus. However, we haven’t seen any further development in the story and the company’s plans on promoting camera with unique branding.
Lee’s visit to ZEISS is all about partnership in process technology. Samsung Foundry is looking to attract clients as it already left behind TSMC in the market as well as losing consumers like Qualcomm.

TSMC will commence 1.6nm semiconductor production in the second half of 2026. The company’s Co-Chief Operating Officer, Y.J. Mii, announced (via NikkeiAsia) in the US that the new A16 chip manufacturing technology will begin production in the second half of 2026.
South Korea’s Samsung Electronics is also working on 1.6nm process tech, called Backside Power Delivery. Taiwanese chipmaker said that 1.6nm is an area where they are competing with Intel, racing to boost the speed of AI semiconductors.
Demand from AI chip companies led TSMC to develop the new A16 chip manufacturing process faster than expected. High NA EUV, the next-generation extreme ultraviolet exposure equipment for drawing ultra-fine circuits, is unlikely to be used.
Samsung previously revealed it plans to mass produce 2nm in 2025 and 1.4nm in 2027, which is similar to TSMC. Meanwhile, Intel could start mass production of the 1.8nm process later this year, with 1.4nm expected to be announced in 2027.
