What it does

Dutch maker of deposition equipment, the machines that lay down atom-thin films on silicon wafers, best known for atomic layer deposition (ALD) and epitaxy.

Why it matters

Its ALD and epitaxy tools are used to build gate-all-around transistors at 2nm, the leading-edge logic nodes that AI processors move to, and it cites the multi-year surge in AI data center demand as a driver.

How it makes money

Sells wafer processing equipment and spare parts and services to chipmakers and foundries.

Geography

Netherlands (Almere)

AI stack position

Semiconductor manufacturing equipment. The highly specialized machines and design software used to create advanced chips in the first place. Without these tools, no chip maker in the world — including the ones building NVIDIA's chips — could produce anything.
