Specialty devices are the unsung heroes of modern life. For many in the semiconductor industry today, the spotlight is on the SiC and GaN power devices used in automotive, green energy, fast-charge ...

The big picture: Infineon has developed the world's thinnest silicon power wafers, measuring just 20 micrometers in thickness – about the same as a human hair. These wafers promise significant ...

Wind power. Rail. Solar energy. And, perhaps most significantly, electric and hybrid vehicles. Together, these four forces are among the major demand drivers for power devices. While silicon (Si) ...

This is a fragment of a small silicon wafer, on which are etched several integrated circuitsl, which performed the basic logic of the Apollo Guidance Computer. Creating an integrated circuit was a ...
