crazy how human built the machine that makes this computer chips. this is alien tech already.

Yeah well it's like it's building itself creating itself

Yeah, robots making robots.. then sentient AI gets integrated.. ❤❤ we're approaching singularity, no doubt!

As a man involved in the manufacture of these beautiful wafers, i can tell you that this video is as authentic as possible without delving into proprietary information. P.S.: Pleased as punch to be 👍#400!! 👨‍💻

[@Process-X]

Thank you so much for your kind words! It means a lot coming from someone who is involved in the industry.

[@KMD93739]

Any idea why they cast the silicon crystal into a cylinder? There so much waste on the edge of a circle why don't they cast into a rectangular column so they could use it all?

[@TwixSvK]

@@KMD93739 5 second google search got me this: The silicon ingots that are used to grow the wafer are circular in shape. This is due to the process of dipping a seed crystal into molten silicon and rotating and slowly extracting as the crystal grows. This is also known as the popular Czochralski method.

[@laurawilson9276]

These things are pretty much like glass. Really fragile so i think its because a circle is a more structurally stable shape while a square is not. These things go through alot of bumps and spins. They specially designed lot boxes with a built in tilt to prevent them from bumping around so much while we carry them. I also work in this industry, i was showing my kids what i do with this video. 😊 heres an explanation i found. - The arc (think: circle) is the strongest structural shape, and in nature, the sphere is the strongest 3-d shape. The reason being is that stress is distributed equally along the arc instead of concentrating at any one point.

[@KMD93739]

@laurawilson9276 that makes sense given how thin the wafers are, thank you for the explanation!

[@DankTheGank5]

Dude if we ever forget how to make these it's going to be a nightmare to figure out how to do it again.

[@UlissesMartins]

It is absolutely amazing and incredible the knowledge and state of art manufacturing processes involved in the construction of the circuits at the atomic scale. The knowledge trench between the ordinary humans and the scientists that develop and improve this extraordinary process is overwhelming.

Same reason our head is round and not square. I Joke, I also wonder why those wafers were round :)

[@rohitsharma66]

​@@onlycryptofanseasiness for polishing and removing the impurities by circular motion. In circular shape, you can achieve the refine wafers by using the law of physics, which is a most crucial part of the semiconductors manufacturing.

[@stalker-svk]

you missed some steps like epitaxy, surface scan for defects or particles
