The semiconductor industry belongs to the electronic information industry, the hardware industry, the foundation of the information age and the semiconductor-based industry.
1, the semiconductor industry is mainly engaged in integrated circuits, consumer electronics, communication systems, photovoltaic power generation, lighting applications, high-power power conversion and other fields. For example, diodes are devices made of semiconductors. No matter from the perspective of science and technology or economic development, the importance of semiconductors is enormous.
Today, most electronic products, such as computers, mobile phones or digital recorders, are closely related to semiconductors. Common semiconductor materials include silicon, germanium, gallium arsenide, etc. Among all kinds of semiconductor materials, silicon is the most influential one in commercial applications.
