Semiconductors are materials that have electrical conductivity between that of conductors, such as metals, and insulators, such as ceramics. They are typically made of crystalline solids and exhibit unique properties that allow them to conduct electricity under certain conditions, such as the presence of impurities (dopants) or changes in temperature. Semiconductors are essential in modern electronics, as they can be used to create a variety of electronic components, such as diodes, transistors, and integrated circuits. They serve as the foundational elements for devices like computers, smartphones, and solar cells, enabling the control and manipulation of electrical signals. Common semiconductor materials include silicon, germanium, and gallium arsenide, among others. The ability to control their conductivity makes semiconductors crucial for the development of technology, impacting various industries and everyday life.
En los últimos años, las sanciones de Estados Unidos han mantenido a la industria de semiconductores de China en un estrangulamiento. Aunque las empresas chinas aún pueden fabricar chips para…
