TSMC, Intel, Samsung diverge on 1.4nm chip production roadmaps

TSMC, Intel, and Samsung are all producing chips using 2nm-class process technology, with Samsung and TSMC having started mass production in mid-to-late 2025. Their future roadmaps diverge significantly: TSMC prioritizes predictable scaling and specialization, Samsung focuses on yield improvement with iterative node variants, and Intel pursues an aggressive strategy with advanced technologies like gate-all-around transistors and backside power delivery, aiming for 1.4nm nodes by 2027-2028.
