About Canon Semiconductor
This record covers the semiconductor lithography equipment business of Canon Inc., not a separate company. Lithography machines print circuit patterns onto wafers. Canon makes conventional light-based systems and also nanoimprint lithography, which presses a patterned mold into resist on the wafer like a stamp instead of projecting light. Canon introduced its nanoimprint systems in October 2023 and says they are simpler and cheaper than extreme ultraviolet machines. Canon Inc. became a company in 1937 and is headquartered in Tokyo.
Canon Semiconductor was founded in 1937 and is based in Tokyo, Japan. It is listed under Custom Silicon. Its shares trade as 7751.T on TSE.
