It sat inside of a big box whose job was to take silicon wafers in on one side and spit out integrated circuits on the other. [BrendaEM] never really divulges how she got her hands on something so ...

For that reason, the direct epitaxial growth of high-quality III-V optical gain materials selectively on large-size silicon photonics wafers remains a highly sought-after objective. The large ...

The chip starts out as a thin wafer of P-type silicon. This is then coated with a layer of silicon dioxide -- kind of a silicon rust, which doesn't conduct electricity. On top of this is placed a ...

MILPITAS, Calif. — May 2, 2022 — Worldwide silicon wafer area shipments in the first quarter of 2022 surpassed the previous record high set in the third quarter of 2021, rising 1% quarter-over-quarter ...

Imec has demonstrated electrically-driven GaAs-based multi-quantum-well nano-ridge laser diodes fully, monolithically fabricated on 300 mm silicon wafers in its CMOS pilot prototyping line. Achieving ...
