From Sand To Silicon: The Making of a Chip | Intel

[@CryptonGamingofficial]

0:11 - siO2 (quartz) crystal goes under refining process to convert impure si into metallurgical grade si, then using Czochralski process electronic grade si is obtained which is a ultra pure si crystal also known as si ingot ( cylindrical shape - 0:28 ). 0:34 - si ingot is cut in nano meter size width & having disc shape 0:47 -doping is done and diodes & transistors are fabricated using VLSI technology to create billions of logic gates on a single si chip. 1:18 - finally wafer dicing is done & resulting IC chip is known as microcomputer or more specifically a microprocessor ( name given by INTEL corporation ). 1:36 - ic chip is encapsulated in a metal case also called package and your INTEL core i7 processor is ready..

[@zenith9969]

Thanks Bro, by seeing the video, I understood only the refining process.

Not really. ENIAC was.. how do I say it? Beyond obsolete. More of an extreme artifact than anything else. In fact, you could probably fit the entire ENIAC on a tiny silicon wafer slightly larger than a grain of sand. Modern technology can render 3D graphics at thousands of frames per second. (Ironically, this is wasted on the crappy 60HZ monitor you have.)

The is a mask that is used to create the pattern. Uv light is used and shined upon the mask, areas that are covered on the mask then no UV light gets through. THere is a photoresist on the substrate. Whenever UV light shines on the photoresist areas that are exposed become soluble in a NaOH solution. Once the exposed photoresist in removed there is an etching that happens, like HF hydrofluoric acid.The remaining photoresist actually resist the etching of HF. THis process is repeated many times.
