CMOS Fabrication
CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) fabrication is a process used to create electronic components like microchips, which power devices such as smartphones and computers. It involves layering materials like silicon, metals, and insulators on a semiconductor wafer. By using light to define patterns on the wafer and etching away unwanted materials, engineers create tiny circuits that control electrical signals. CMOS technology is favored for its low power consumption and ability to integrate multiple functions on a single chip, making it essential for modern electronics.
