- Semiconductors, crucial to nearly every modern electronic device, bridge the conductivity gap between conductors like copper and insulators like glass.
- Examples include silicon, germanium, gallium arsenide, and elements near the “metalloid staircase” on the periodic table.
- Semiconductor chips contain integrated circuits (ICs) that consist of numerous electronic components, including transistors, diodes, resistors, and capacitors, all fabricated onto a small piece of semiconductor material.
- Chips serve as the “brains” of electronic devices, performing a wide range of functions such ....
