Neon Gas (High-Purity) SUPPLY CHAIN TRACE

RAW MATERIALS🇺🇦 Ukraine

High-purity neon is a critical gas in the argon-fluoride (ArF) excimer lasers that generate the 193nm deep-ultraviolet light used by DUV lithography machines — the workhorses of chip production at 14nm to 5nm nodes. Ukraine historically supplied roughly 70% of the world's semiconductor-grade neon; the 2022 invasion triggered an emergency supply-chain scramble that accelerated diversification toward U.S. and European producers.
