Vermont is rapidly becoming a key player in the semiconductor industry with the official opening of the V-GaN Test and Characterization Lab in South Burlington.
隨著佛蒙特州南柏林頓的「V-GaN 測試與特性分析實驗室」正式啟用，佛蒙特州正迅速成為半導體產業的關鍵參與者。
Launched in July 2026 at the OnLogic headquarters, this facility plays a crucial role in the Vermont Gallium Nitride (V-GaN) Tech Hub.
該設施於 2026 年 7 月在 OnLogic 總部啟動，在「佛蒙特氮化鎵 (V-GaN) 技術中心」中扮演至關重要的角色。
Rather than manufacturing chips, the lab provides essential high-power testing and validation services, helping researchers bridge the gap between laboratory prototypes and commercial production for next-generation GaN semiconductors.
該實驗室並非負責製造晶片，而是提供必要的強功率測試與驗證服務，協助研究人員跨越實驗室原型與商業生產之間的鴻溝，開發下一代氮化鎵 (GaN) 半導體。
The broader regional effort is bolstered by a massive $16 billion investment by GlobalFoundries in its Essex Junction plant.
更廣泛的區域性發展則獲得了格羅方德 (GlobalFoundries) 在艾塞克斯章克申廠區投入高達 160 億美元資金的支持。
Supported by the federal CHIPS and Science Act, this initiative focuses on advanced technologies like silicon photonics and GaN, which are vital for electric vehicles and 5G communications.
在聯邦《晶片與科學法案》(CHIPS and Science Act) 的挹注下，這項倡議聚焦於矽光子與氮化鎵等先進技術，這些技術對於電動車與 5G 通訊至關重要。
With a commitment to training over 500 new workers and extensive K-12 STEM outreach, Vermont is effectively positioning itself as a hub for efficient, high-performance semiconductor technology through a powerful blend of academic, private, and government partnerships.
透過培訓逾 500 名新員工的承諾以及廣泛的 K-12 STEM 教育推廣，佛蒙特州正透過產、學、官強大的跨界合作，有效地將自身定位為高效能半導體技術的中心。
