Some examples of semiconductors are silicon, germanium, gallium arsenide, and elements near the so-called "metalloid staircase" on the periodic table. After silicon, gallium arsenide is the second-most common semiconductor and is used in laser diodes , solar cells , microwave-frequency integrated circuits , and others.
A compound semiconductor is a semiconductor compound composed of chemical elements of at least two different species. These semiconductors form for example in periodic table groups 13–15 (old groups III–V), for example of elements from the Boron group (old group III, boron, aluminium, gallium, indium) and from group 15 (old group V, nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, bismuth).
Semiconductors are materials whose electronic properties can be controlled by adding small amounts of impurities to them. Subcategories This category has the following 10 subcategories, out of 10 total.
Samsung announced that it had begun mass production of multi-level cell (MLC) flash memory chips using a 10 nm process in 2013. [120] On 17 October 2016, Samsung Electronics announced mass production of SoC chips at 10 nm. [121] TSMC began commercial production of 10 nm chips in early 2016, before moving onto mass production in early 2017. [122]
The table below shows some of the parameters of common superconductors.X:Y means material X doped with element Y, T C is the highest reported transition temperature in kelvins and H C is a critical magnetic field in tesla.
The manufacture of semiconductors controls precisely the location and concentration of p- and n-type dopants. The connection of n-type and p-type semiconductors form p–n junctions. The most common semiconductor device in the world is the MOSFET (metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor), [1] also called the MOS transistor.
