Why this edge matters
ASML is recorded as a monopoly in lithography and lists TSMC as a customer; TSMC lists ASML as a supplier. ASML's one-liner says it is the sole supplier of EUV lithography machines required for leading-edge chips; TSMC is the foundry that runs those tools. The edge is where a single-source tool vendor meets the foundry the rest of the named leading-edge customers sit on.

Concentration / risk note
ASML is positioned as a monopoly in Equipment (Front End), so this edge is harder to replace than a challenger or niche supplier.
Basis: supplier position. Omitted on edges where the graph does not back a concentration claim.
The two companies
ASML (supplier)
Sole supplier of EUV lithography machines required for all leading-edge chips.
