Environmentally Friendly Semiconductor R&D
The extraction and processing of the materials from which semiconductors are crafted (silicon, gallium arsenide, and other precious metals) are often energy-intensive and environmentally harmful. Sustainable technology in semiconductor R&D seeks to develop more efficient processes that reduce resource consumption and waste. With the increase in the global population, the demand for electronic devices has also increased, which puts immense pressure on semiconductor manufacturers to produce more while minimizing their environmental impact.
Sustainable Solutions for E-Waste
Energy consumption in semiconductor R&D is substantial, especially in fabrication plants, which also involves the release of greenhouse gases, contributing to climate change. Sustainable technology in semiconductor R&D aims to enhance the energy efficiency of semiconductor manufacturing processes, from chip design to production, exploring cleaner and more environmentally friendly production methods, reducing emissions and the industry's carbon footprint.
