Samsung and CXMT Face U.S. Legal Fight Over DRAM Trade Secrets
Korean prosecutors are investigating former Samsung employees accused of taking DRAM trade secrets to CXMT after joining the Chinese DRAM maker. Testimony claims CXMT sought Samsung’s core manufacturing know-how, including detailed steps underpinning its 10-nanometer-class DRAM mass production in 2023. Under U.S. Section 337, the trials could support import exclusion, as major PC makers and Apple supply scenarios are reportedly in play.
