Display Fabs and Compound Semiconductors
Display fabrication facilities (Fabs) and compound semiconductors are key enablers of modern electronics, powering digital devices, telecom, renewable energy, defence, and advanced manufacturing. In India, they are promoted as high-value sectors complementing silicon-based chips, supporting technological self-reliance and strategic electronics capability.
Basic Concepts
- Display fabs manufacture flat-panel displays used in smartphones, televisions, laptops, automotive dashboards, and industrial control systems.
- Compound semiconductors are made from two or more elements, such as gallium, nitrogen, arsenic, or silicon carbide, and exhibit superior electrical and optical properties compared to conventional silicon.
- Together, these technologies support high-brightness displays, high-frequency communication, power electronics, and optoelectronic applications, expanding the ....
