Categories Related to Semiconductor Materials
Semiconductor materials encompass all substances used in creating semiconductor devices, ranging from wafers, which form the chip's main body, to photomasks, gases for etching and cleaning, and components for chip packaging. Wafers are central to semiconductor material, usually referring to silicon or compound semiconductors like silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN).
These materials find applications across various fields, notably in producing electronics such as low-cost silicon-based devices, high-frequency gadgets, LEDs, and optical communication tools. Their diverse functionalities stem from the distinct properties of single-element and compound semiconductors.
The manufacturing process begins with the refinement of silicon into high-purity polycrystalline silicon. This material then undergoes a single-crystal pulling process to form single-crystal ingots, which are subsequently sliced into wafers and polished for use in semiconductor devices.
Semiconductors are categorized based on their integration level into discrete semiconductors, integrated circuits (ICs), and large-scale integrated circuits (LSIs), each serving different functions in a myriad of applications from automotive to personal computing devices.
