Tecnología de Semiconductores

Technología de Semiconductores, or semiconductor technology, refers to the branch of technology that deals with the development and application of semiconductor materials, which are substances that can partially conduct electricity. These materials have electrical properties that fall between those of conductors (like metals) and insulators (like rubber). Semiconductor technology is foundational in the manufacturing and design of electronic components, including transistors, diodes, and integrated circuits, which are essential for modern electronic devices such as computers, smartphones, and various communication systems. The ability to control electrical conductivity through doping (adding impurities to the material) enables the creation of precise electronic components that form the backbone of virtually all electronic systems. Semiconductor technology encompasses various disciplines, including materials science, electrical engineering, and physics, and is constantly evolving with advances in nanotechnology and quantum computing. The ongoing development of semiconductor technology has a significant impact on industries ranging from consumer electronics to telecommunications and automation.
