Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the potential misconduct of a former TSMC executive, Luo Wei-ren, who allegedly took confidential technology information to Intel after retiring, raising concerns about corporate espionage and legal implications [1][3]. Group 1: Allegations and Legal Implications - Luo Wei-ren, former senior vice president of TSMC's technology research and development, has reportedly taken a large amount of confidential information related to advanced process technologies (2nm, A16, A14) to Intel after his retirement [1][3]. - TSMC has not yet filed a lawsuit, and the legal status remains unclear; however, if TSMC does file a complaint and confirms the involvement of 2nm secrets, legal actions similar to previous cases of technology theft may be pursued [3]. - The Taiwanese law enforcement is currently gathering evidence to determine if any illegal activities occurred, with a focus on whether Luo's actions constitute a breach of trade secrets [3]. Group 2: Background of Luo Wei-ren - Luo Wei-ren joined TSMC in 2004 and held various senior positions, including vice president of operations and senior vice president of corporate strategy development, during which he led the technology team to secure over 15,000 patents [4]. - His leadership in advanced process upgrades has been significant for TSMC, making his transition to Intel, a direct competitor, particularly concerning for TSMC [3][4].

业界传出罗唯仁退休前，动用本身高阶主管职权，指派属下帮他影印大批台积电 2nm 、 A16 、 A14 及以下等先进制程技术相关机密资 料，还要求相关下属对他简报。 国芯网[原:中国半导体论坛] 振兴国产半导体产业！ 不拘中国、 放眼世界 ！ 关注 世界半导体论坛 ↓ ↓ ↓ 11月19日消息，据台媒报道，台积电前技术研发资深副总经理罗唯仁，日前退休后跳槽到竞争对手英特尔任研发副总！ 业界盛传， 罗唯仁退休前利用职权要求下属对他简报并影印大批2nm 、 A16 、 A14 等最先进制程技术机密，带往英特尔！ 台湾地区执法部门 18 日表示，已在搜证了解中，将厘清是否涉及不法。 据报道，由于台积电尚未提告，目前事实不明，因此检方先分「他案」搜证，涉案罪名尚不明，但如果台积电提告，并确认与 2 nm机密 有关，检方可能比照先前 3 名台积电工程师窃取核心关键技术，依相关法律展开侦办。 业界传出 ， 75 岁的罗唯仁，在 7 月退休后，于 10 月底已赴英特尔任职，掌管研发到落地量产前的先进设备暨模组发展领域，这攸关英 特尔最需要提升的生产良率。 据悉，台积电正在搜集证据并评估罗唯仁的动向，毕竟英特尔既是台积电的竞 ...

2011年，台积电创始人张忠谋时任CEO，颁发台积电内部最高荣誉"TSMC Medal of Honor"，称罗唯 仁"勇于承担，做出重要技术决策"，对他技术贡献高度肯定。 罗唯仁是协助台积电突破当年研发10nm制程瓶颈的关键人物。他当时提出"夜鹰计划"，打造结合"日 鹰"与"夜鹰"，24小时运作的先进制程研发中心，并与设备商组成全天候应变小组，联手开发新设备， 助力台积电跨过10nm研发难关。 罗唯仁"带枪投靠"说法仍待釐清，且已引起台积电与政府相关单位注意，一切静待后续调查。 中国台湾高检署知识产权分署已分案侦办，釐清是否违反营业秘密法等行为。中国经济部门仅回应称， 已请同事了解实际状况，但尊重台积电，还是要由台积电说明。 根据台积电相关资料，罗唯仁拥有美国加州大学柏克莱分校固态物理及表面化学博士学位，2004年加入 台积电，21年来历任多项重要职务，带给客户更全面、创新的解决方案，领导团队突破技术瓶颈，在全 球获得超过1500项专利。 业界11月18日传出，台积电前技术研发暨企业策略发展资深副总经理罗唯仁今年7月退休，10月转战英 特尔，但疑似退休前利用高级主管职权，要求员工制作台积电2nm、A16、A ...
