Unlike other crucial materials, the U.S. government hasn’t stockpiled gallium—which means tariffs and export limitations could impact the future production of GaAs wafers.
Read MoreInP reclaim wafers are a great material for high-speed communications and RF applications for their high hole mobility. Here, we’ll explain this concept.
Read MoreSilicon wafer processing is a crucial step in creating semiconductors we use daily, but there are some risks associated with this practice. Here’s how we avoid them.
Read MoreLaser marking is a key step in silicon manufacturing, but it can be dangerous and affect product quality if the right safety measures aren’t taken.
Read MoreTo ensure the surface of a Si wafer is free of flaws, manufacturers employ various surface control methods. Here, we’ll go over them, exploring their use and advantages.
Read MoreSmartphones use several thin silicon wafers to perform all of their functions perfectly, but have you ever wondered how many of them there are?
Read MoreOur General Manager, Ronnie Phelix, has been nominated by the SFMA for Employee of the Year. We want to say congratulations, Ronnie, from everyone at Wafer World!
Read MoreTo manufacture a GaAs wafer, gallium and arsenide first must be procured. Here, we’ll explore how GaAs is crafted—and if the USA can make it domestically in the future.
Read MoreAn InP wafer can find several uses, but it’s currently used in large quantities in quantum computing. Here, we’ll break down why.
