The possible effects of the Ukrainian-Russian war on the world of technology (Research)

Currently ongoing UkraineRussia The war is causing serious tension in Europe. Many Europe own country flight zone Russia closed to aircraft. Also USA and EU also Russia To the federation, even directly Putinin began to impose sanctions on himself. But how can this ongoing war affect the world of technology? Can giant technology companies be affected if sanctions continue? Let’s go Ukraine and Let’s analyze Russia’s place in the world of technology and Let’s talk about the possible effects of this on the world of technology.

Today, one of the factors of power difference between countries “High Technologies” and “Mines used in the development of high technologies”is. The two countries produce the most and one of the metals that are important in chip production Paladium-stop. Paladium metal is mainly on average 2200-2400 dollars sold around (Note: Russia-Ukraine Paladium 2400-2600 due to the war dollars rose to the range. This is a record for the last 6 months). Especially this metal NAND flash chips and some of sensors in preparation, in the packaging of processor chips is used. Let’s note for those who do not know that, NAND flash chips are memory devices used in all devices, from smartphones to computers and used in the manufacture of frames. Right now South Korea and China The volatility in the NAND flash chip market, where it is a leader, is significantly higher. For this reason, prices rise sharply when there are obstacles to production.

Western countries, EU and Russia because the United States imposes sanctions on Russia snowas a step Paladium may freeze exports. When this happens, it is possible to say that there may be effects on chip production. Also note that, Among the customers of Paladium metal exported by Russia American-based chip companies also has. However, Russia is not the only choice for Paladium exports. Demand for Paladium 55%by other countries still snowşılanır. Therefore, Russia’s suspension of Paladium exports could have a significant impact on chip production, although not a serious blow. In this case, the requirements of the manufacturer snowthey will have to find new sources that, for this, they invest heavily and will take time. If the current problem of chip shortage is compounded by the Paladium problem, it is possible to see a sharp increase in the prices of technological devices. That’s it according to Russia’s position on Paladium exports is also very important.

As we wrote above, Russia is the only exporter of palladium 45%meets the demand. Most of the remaining 55% South Africa and Zimbabwefalls to the share of. But many of these countries are China serious debts var. The end 20 When we look at African countries in China 150 billion dollars it is possible to see that it is borrowed close. When Russia froze Paladium exports, the first countries to turn to chip companies were South Africa and Zimbabwe will be. These countries are originally from China due to debts (China has large investments in these countries) and Given that China is also subject to US sanctions, the United States and It is safe to say that China will face each other again. Assuming that China does not want to lead the chip production, it is very expensive for US companies to find Paladium and will be a time consuming process.

The most advanced production method in chip production It is lithography. Lithographic devices are man-made by some engineers the most complex is considered one of the devices. It is also one of the materials used in the production of chips by lithography Neon gasis. Neon, mainly used in lighting devices gası directly to Russia and Exported by Ukraine. Russia is also one of the most important sources of demand for American companies and It shows that Ukraine. Thus, Neon, obtained as a by-product in the production of steel in Russia gasIt is refined in Ukraine and made suitable for use in chip production. Neon gas is used in lasers in lithography devices. These lasers cut silicone substances to make new chips and is important in the division. That’s it according to Neon gas is also very important. Sanctions on Russia could affect the export of Neon gas, as well as Paladium and In this case, the first companies to experience material shortages are US-based firms.

You can see what the lithography method is and what lasers do in the video below.

Currently recognized as the largest chip manufacturer in the world of technology TSMC Taiwan, the company’s home country, has a partially different interpretation of the news. Taiwanese officials say that, For a shortage of potential production material from a giant company like TSMC A, B, C and s. such plans are available. To the Taiwanese media according to TSMC If there is a shortage of materials, the company will have no difficulty in finding new mines. Let `s note that, The Chinese state of Taiwan due to the Russian-Ukrainian war weather and entered the sea space. Currently in Taiwan and There are also tensions between China. We hope so that, while one war continues, the other does not begin.
