Description
These are the instructions to the creation of silicon wafers and their initial processing steps.
Recipes
The starting point for the silicon wafers is a sand, quartz or a mineral rich in silica.
- Step 1.0 Get some sand, quartz or a mineral rich in silica.
- Step 1.1 Purify the sand, quartz ou silica rich mineral in to silica sand in the crafting table.

- Step 1.6 Polish the unpolished silicon wafers in the chemical mechanical polisher.
- Step 1.7 Take the the silicon wafers to the ion implanter for doping. You have two choices, use boron and indium to create P-type wafers and phosphorus, arsenic and antimony to create N-type wafer. In this step, the machine will bombard ions for them to be inserted in the silicon.
- Step 1.8 The implantation process will disorganize the silicon crystal structure. To smooth and repair the silicon crystal take the doped silicon wafers to the annealing furnace with a argon cartridge.
- Step 1.9 To grow a layer of silicon dioxide take the doped and annealed silicon wafers to the oxygen furnace with a oxygen cartridge. The dielectric layer of silicon oxide is an isolator.
You now have a Silicon wafer P-Type SiO or a Silicon wafer N-Type SiO. These are the starting components of semiconductor fabrication that fabs use. The Silicon wafer P-Type SiO can be used to create not-and logic gates (NANDs) or arithmetic logical units (ALUs). The Silicon wafer N-Type SiO can be used to create the controller chip.
