Sherman

Nvidia-backed photonics vendor Coherent plans to quadruple indium phosphide (InP) wafer production at its Sherman, Texas, facility to meet rising AI interconnect demand. The expansion, funded by $650 million including Nvidia's $2 billion investment and government grants, aims to double the factory's size and create 1,000 jobs. Nvidia has also invested in Lumentum and Marvell to bolster optical component supply chains for AI systems.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang claims AI can revitalize U.S. manufacturing, with a Texas factory partnership with Coherent testing this vision. The factory will produce materials for high-speed data transmission between computer chips, aiming to create more powerful systems. The initiative faces scrutiny over job displacement concerns and regulatory shifts under President Donald Trump.

Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang pledges that AI will boost U.S. manufacturing jobs, with a test case in a Texas factory partnered with Coherent. The factory will produce laser materials to enhance AI infrastructure, aiming to create a unified, high-performance chip system. President Donald Trump's administration is shifting toward stricter AI regulation, including export controls and potential government stakes in AI companies.
