Key Facts
Project Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce has awarded Corning up to $32 million in direct funding to support the company’s expansion of its existing manufacturing facility in Canton, New York.
Economic and National Security Impact
The CHIPS investment will enable Corning to increase production of High Purity Fused Silica (HPFS) and EXTREME ULE Glass (Ultra Low Expansion Glass) and scale of novel technology manufacturing process in Canton. HFPS and ULE materials are key components of deep ultraviolet (DUV) and extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography machines and photomasks, which are important for the manufacturing of leading-edge semiconductors, and this new technology would improve EUV performance with a lower carbon footprint. The investment in Corning is expected to enable a reliable domestic supply of these important components in the United States and help advance U.S. technology leadership in the lithography supply chain.
