Semiconductors are the key elements for the majorityof electronic systems, serving communications, computing, signal processing andcontrol applications in both the industrial and consumer markets.
Semiconductors are employed in the manufacture ofdifferent kinds of electronicdevices, including transistors, integrated circuits and diodes. Due totheir compactness, reliability, power efficiency, and low cost, suchdevices have found broad application.
As discrete components, they have found usein power devices, light emitters and optical sensors, includingsolid-state lasers. They have current- and voltage-handling potential and,more significantly, make themselves to integration into complex butreadily manufacturable microelectroniccircuits.
