Overview
Lam Research is an American semiconductor equipment company founded in 1980 that specialises in the deposition and etch steps used to build transistors and memory cells. Its tools are central to three-dimensional NAND manufacturing, where hundreds of layers must be etched through in high aspect ratio channels, and to the atomic layer deposition and selective etch processes required at advanced logic and DRAM nodes. Headquartered in Fremont, California and listed on Nasdaq, it also runs a large installed base business supplying spares, upgrades and service, which smooths the sharp cycles in equipment purchasing.
