Inpria Co-Developing Metal Oxide Resist with SK hynix to Reduce Complexity of Patterning for Next-Generation DRAM

JSR Corporation announced today acceleration of its co-development with SK hynix Inc. to apply Inpria, a JSR company’s Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) metal oxide resist (MOR) for manufacturing advanced DRAM chips. Inpria’s broadly-patented metal oxide photoresist platform for EUV enables customers to efficiently pattern advanced node device architectures.

Inpria material solutions provide the performance needed to significantly reduce the cost of EUV patterning and are compatible with proven processes and equipment configurations. Inpria’s MOR can be applied by a standard spin coating process.

“EUV manufacturing is complex and requires cutting-edge materials,” said BK Lee, head of R&D process at SK hynix. “Tin-oxide resists show promise to deliver both on performance and also on lower manufacturing cost for the next generation of state-of-the-art DRAM.”

“JSR’s technology has always been based on materials innovation,” said Tadahiro Suhara, Managing Officer at JSR. “We are committed to accelerating SK hynix’s technology roadmap by enabling efficient printing of the smallest features. The science is pioneering but so are the economics.”

EUV is already in use in commercial production in the most advanced lithography processes used in semiconductor manufacturing and, as the industry moves to smaller critical dimensions in chip manufacturing, its use is expected to increase substantially.

Inpria is the leader in metal oxide EUV resists and has achieved the world's highest resolution using EUV exposure systems. JSR acquired Inpria in 2021 and, as EUV adoption continues to increase, is investing in expanding production capabilities and customer support services for high volume manufacturing.

80% of IT Leaders Say the Digital Workplace Is Critical to AI Success, Yet Only 10% Have Fundamentally Redesigned It, Lenovo Research Finds10.11.2026 15:00:00 CET | Press release

Global study of 1,200 IT leaders identifies five connected dimensions of workplace readiness and shows where organizations can focus to turn AI ambition into measurable business value Eight in ten IT decision makers say the digital workplace is critical to successful AI-led transformation, yet only 10% report fundamentally redesigning it for AI, according to Lenovo’s sixth Work Reborn report, The AI-ready workplace. The findings expose a significant gap between deploying AI tools and the operating capabilities needed to integrate them into how work gets done across an organization. The report frames workplace readiness as a connected system spanning people, workflows, technology, support and governance, with each contributing to how enterprises translate AI ambition into business outcomes at scale. Based on an August 2026 survey of 1,200 IT leaders at organizations with at least 1,000 employees across 12 countries, the report examines the workplace conditions needed to translate AI dep

The $63.4 Billion Innovation Drain: Study Finds Unexpected Tech Costs Force Cuts into AI Investment and Hiring10.11.2026 15:00:00 CET | Press release

New economic research reveals how unpredictable infrastructure costs are constraining innovation, with potential savings that could support more than 111,000 jobs and generate $20.4 billion in long-term growthAI/ML infrastructure overspend is the most of any technology category at 37% ($23.4bn) of the total, and nearly twice as hard to forecast84% of organizations made at least one cost-driven trade-off over the past year Businesses across eight major economies incur $63.4 billion annually in technology infrastructure overspend attributable to opaque, unpredictable or difficult-to-forecast provider charges, forcing companies to scale back investments in artificial intelligence, hiring and new product development, according to new economic research from the Centre for Economics and Business Research (CEBR), commissioned by Wasabi Technologies.
