FROM INNOVATION TO ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Our innovations in wafer production have a strong impact on increasing the energy efficiency of chips. This has a particular impact on smartphones, computers including servers, household appliances and electric vehicles.
Siltronic AG
Hyperpure silicon wafers are the basis for almost all semiconductor devices and consequently represent an essential basis for the world’s electronics industry.
Manufacturers of semiconductors
Our wafers are very closely linked to computer chips because our customers – the manufacturers of semiconductors – transform wafers into chips through physical and chemical processes.
End markets
The most important end markets for demand for our wafers are smartphones, computers, servers, consumer electronics including household appliances, industry and automobiles. Almost all of our wafers go to these six end markets.
