Another piece is Musk’s proposed “Terafab” – a 100-million-square-foot semiconductor complex in Texas that could dramatically expand America’s ability to manufacture advanced chips.
Intel's 14A defect density improvement is best since 22nm; CFO says customers shifting from evaluating data to competing for capacity — BigGo Finance
Musk described 14A as "the most advanced process still in development," and said he expects that by the time the campus reaches full production volume, 14A "should be mature and ready for high-volume manufacturing." The Terafab campus reportedly carries a construction cost of approximately $25 billion, with planned AI compute capacity at the terawatt scale once fully operational.

The highlight of the Terafab plan is the focus on a new lithography method. Lithography is a process that uses light to print intricate circuit patterns onto silicon wafers, which are the base material for semiconductors. The finer the circuits, the shorter the wavelength of light needed; thus, state-of-the-art chips require EUV light with a wavelength of 13.5 nanometers (nm).
