Reference News website reported on April 24 that according to a report on the Hong Kong South China Morning Post website on April 22, as the United States continues to step up restrictions on chip exports to China to curb China's access to advanced semiconductors, Chinese researchers are working hard. The report said that in recent years, Chinese universities have been at the forefront of world-leading research in chip design and manufacturing. They are conducting much fundamental research that may affect the next generation of semiconductor technology. A report published in March by the Emerging Technology Observatory Project at Georgetown University stated that from 2018 to 2023, nine of the top ten institutions with English-language chip research output were Chinese institutions. In order, they are the Chinese Academy of Sciences, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Tsinghua University, Nanjing University, Xi'an Jiaotong University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Zhejiang University, and Peking University. Eight of the top ten institutions with cited papers are Chinese institutions. They are the Chinese Academy of Sciences, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Tsinghua University, Nanjing University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Zhejiang University, University of Science and Technology of China, and Peking University. Only two research institutions from other countries entered the above rankings: France’s National Center for Scientific Research ranked third in terms of published papers and tenth in citation volume; Singapore National University ranked ninth in research citation volume. The report said that the United States - the second largest country in chip design and manufacturing research - did not have any institution enter the top ten in either published papers or citation volume. Chip research is an area of intense competition between China and the US as both countries strive to take the lead in next-generation semiconductor technology. The report said that the U.S.-led measures to restrict China's access to high-end chip manufacturing tools have hindered China's advanced semiconductor production. However, the author of the Emerging Technology Observatory Project report told Nature magazine that the U.S. may not be able to maintain its competitive advantage through export controls. Zachary Arnold, chief analyst of the Emerging Technology Observatory Project, said that research mainly targets new chip technologies rather than commercial progress, and the analysis of global chip research does not consider internal industry research or patents. Arnold said that China leads in the growth areas of chip research in terms of the number of published papers.
