Sudden!Export control of important chip materials!

In the latest news, the Ministry of Commerce and the General Administration of Customs issued the "Announcement of Export Control of Guan Qian and Correctional Items", which mentioned that according to the "Export Control Law of the People's Republic of China", "The Foreign Trade Law of the People's Republic of China", "China", "China China", China ChinaAccording to the relevant provisions of the Customs Law of the People's Republic of China, in order to safeguard national security and interests, it was approved by the State Council to decide to implement export controls on the relevant items of 镓 and 锗.


Among them, the correlation items include nitride, arsenide, and arsenic, etc.; The correlation items include phosphorus zinc, the pyrite extension of the substrate, and the dioxide.The announcement was officially implemented from August 1, 2023.

Both 镓 and 锗 are important semiconductor materials. As the world's largest metal reserves and output countries in the world, the country with the highest output in the world, this export control will undoubtedly have a significant impact on the global semiconductor industry.

The announcement pointed out that the items that meet the relevant characteristics shall not be exported without permission.Among them, metal tadpoles, nitride, oxidation, phosphorized, arsenidized, arsenids, selenium, 锑 镓, and metal, zinc phosphoric zinc, and pillar extension growth bases, Cynesses and other related objects.

Public information shows that 世界 is one of the scarce metal elements in the world at present, and it is also an important raw material for manufacturing semiconductor materials. It is an indispensable material in the chip production process.According to statistics, the total output of the world metal cricket in 2020 a total of 300 tons and 290 tons of Chinese products, accounting for 96%of the global output; in terms of reserves, the world metal reserves are only 279,300 tons, while China's reserves are as many as reserves.190,000 tons, accounting for more than 68%of the world reserves.

It is reported that Japan and the United States are the top two in the world's metal cricket consumer market, and the EU consumption is high.Because the resources are very scarce, these countries have protected the metal crickets in their own territory and instead imported to a large country like China.

In addition, 是 is also an important semiconductor material. Although the amount of use is not large, due to the scarce content, it still becomes scarce resources.It has extensive and important applications in semiconductor, aerospace measurement and control, nuclear physical detection, optical fiber communication, infrared optics, solar cells, chemical catalysts, biomedical and other fields.
