Chinese scientists have developed a novel method for the mass production of high-quality "golden semiconductor" indium selenide, paving the way for manufacturing a new generation of chips that outperform current silicon-based technology. The team successfully produced 5-centimeter-diameter indium selenide wafers and constructed large-scale arrays of high-performance transistors, suitable for direct use in integrated chip devices, said Qiu Chengguang, a researcher at Peking University's School of Electronics. Liu added that this breakthrough opens a new pathway for next-generation, high-performance, low-power chips expected to find broad applications in artificial intelligence, autonomous driving and smart terminals.
