Lam Research

Lam Research inaugurated a new $65 million R&D facility in Tualatin, Oregon, expanding its “Silicon Forest” presence. The 120,000-square-foot building will house up to 700 employees, boosting the company’s development of advanced semiconductor manufacturing equipment. This investment reflects Lam’s commitment to the growing semiconductor market, particularly in AI-related technologies like SABRE® 3D and VECTOR® TEOS 3D. The expansion strengthens Lam’s position as a key supplier of fabrication equipment and reinforces Oregon’s role in semiconductor innovation.
