With a thickness of only 20 µm and a diameter of 300 mm, Infineon’s silicon power wafers are the thinnest in the industry.

The thinness of silicon wafers is important because it reduces resistance and power loss. Current-gen wafers measure 40 to 60 ...

In silicon wafer and cell production, the surface of the wafer is usually given a texture of tiny pyramid shapes, which serve to reduce reflection and trap more light in the cell. This texture is ...

The chip starts out as a thin wafer of P-type silicon. This is then coated with a layer of silicon dioxide -- kind of a silicon rust, which doesn't conduct electricity. On top of this is placed a ...

Infineon has unveiled the world’s thinnest silicon power wafers, with a thickness of 20 micrometers and a diameter of 300 millimeters. The company said the newly produced wafers are half as thick as ...

Strong silicon wafer shipment growth is expected to continue through 2027 to meet increasing demand related to AI and ...

Each week, Quartz rounds up product launches, updates, and funding news from artificial intelligence-focused startups and ...

Doping is the process of adding impurities to silicon wafers in a controlled manner to alter the electrical properties of the semiconductor. [Zach]’s doping method is a more localized version of ...

It is prioritizing 12-inch silicon wafers while transitioning smaller-sized products to improve operational efficiency. Wafer ...

This kind of silicon offers the advantage of enabling the production of ultrathin and flexible wafers with lower impurity ... effectiveness of the front bSi texture.

Infineon Technologies AG announced it has unveiled an advance in handling and processing "the thinnest silicon power wafers ever manufactured," with a thickness of 20 micrometers and a diameter of 300 ...
