Chip Manufacturing - How are Microchips made? | Infineon

How are microchips made - from sand to semiconductor: Microelectronics usually is hidden to society - however, it is a constant companion in our daily lives. It tremendously contributes to the ongoing development and digitization of our world. But what is actually behind this technology?
This is how semiconductors work! In this video we explain how microchips are made and what conditions are necessary for manufacturing.

    Also mass production, even with billions of dollars being put into r&d - they can recoup the cost with mass sales (keeping in mind, these chips are tiny and you could have hundreds per wafer and there are multitude of machines in operation at any given time. Yes yields are an issue, but from a wafer, and modern processes - you could be looking at upwards of 70% of the chips being usable. There are methods of compensating by repeating parts of the chip (like adding extra cores) and omitting them from the end product - as a fail safe for if there is a defect, they can still use the chip, And of course binning of different skews, (let's say half the cores came out defective, if you have a good product line, you can sell it from let's say an 8c model to a 4c - remember how all of them to produce cost the same though, which is why aiming for the best product and then binning from the bad yields is the best option for maximising profits)

    I am speechless. Just to think 100 years ago the best technology was a vacuum cleaner. I really have a new-found respect for computer engineers and an appreciation for the small things in our everyday lives that we take for granted. We have found new ways to push the boundaries of what makes us human. The other day I dropped my phone on the ground, after seeing this, I am astounded at how none of those tiny components were damaged because if one of those little capacitors or transistors, microchips, etc. broke, the entire thing could stop working. I am going to be more careful now with my devices, also after seeing this I won't feel so bad about paying really high prices for a little RAM chip.

    They aren't damaged because chips are actually covered with an epoxy liquid that hardens before they're packaged, so there is no room for movement of any of the transistors on the chip as they're all sealed in a resin. The electricity can still get through the wires though of course.

The way the field effect turns on a MOSFET, the steps in which a photoresist or oxide layer or sputtering or etching generally happens compared to the others. This is fascinating stuff, and a nice explanation, although even now I _still_ have to check over somethings to remember the process better. Maybe read some then watch some more Asianometry content 😅

    I think they explain that part poorly though, I think the holes refer too a lack of electrons for bonding leading to a lack of negative charge randomly distributed as holes. The lack of negative charge causing the net positive charge, that the absence of electrons leading to these positively charged holes. I largely liked and understood the video, but the chemistry parts seemed poorly explained to me, so I guess it's from an electric engineering POV. By poorly explained I mean it came across to me that the videomaker was switching between treating the audience as laymans to trying the audience as having a decent knowledge of chemistry. Or that the videomaker has an inadequate understanding of chemistry, or both. I think the aminations were clear accompaniments though.

    They were just bigger - so one grain of dust in a million grains of air would not affect it. As for 'the first chip', machinery ran on thermionic vacuum tubes/valves in the early days, and you could make transistors and diodes out of them. Memory was provided by ferrite cores. The early chip-producing machines did not need to be fast, they just needed to create a functioning end product. Refinement, miniaturization and speed came later when the machinery itself was upgraded to solid-state (silicon transistors and semiconductor memory).

    You answered your own question. Historically speaking, the first ever machine that produce transistor is very big. Like a Barn. And then they decided to make technological advances out of transistors that already been made into making a Smaller transistor than the first one. And repeat. That process went for tens of years from 1947 to this day. Everything literally went through Trials and Errors. To the point where Transistor can no longer be made out of something purely Conductive because it will gets easily overheat, the scientist need to came out with solutions. This is the point where semiconductive Transistor ideas came out. The scientist need to find a way to make a transistor able to withstand overheating until they experimented with the Sand aka Silicon. Now regarding your question about how did they make nanometers scale of transistors? How did they actually cut it or sculpt it .Like have you ever tried to burn something using Magnifying Glass and Sun light? That's how they experimented with.
