  Wafer (electronics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In microelectronics, a wafer is a thin slice of semiconducting material, such as a silicon crystal, upon which microcircuits are constructed by doping (for example, diffusion or ion implantation), etching, and deposition of various materials.
Wafers are thus of key importance in the fabrication of semiconductor devices such as integrated circuits.
Scoring the wafer along cleavage planes allows it to be easily diced into individual chips ("dies") so that the billions of individual circuit elements on an average wafer can be separated into many individual circuits.

 Wafer
More commonly known as a silicon wafer, a wafer is a single thin slice of a crystal ingot that has been precisely cut using a diamond saw and chemically polished.
The Silicon Wafers are approximately 1 / 30th-inch to 1/50th-inch thick and 3 to 6 inches in diameter.
Using these wafers a manufacturer can place anywhere from 10 to several hundred semiconductors or ICs onto it, which are later cut out and used in computers and other electronics.

First, we know the yield loss caused by ballistic particles inherent in batch tools are a major driver for the transition from batch to single wafer.
Recently, however, chipmakers are also finding that additional particles are contaminating the wafer during the ion implantation process on single magnet tools which is causing a major yield loss.
Moore’s Law states that the number of transistors per square inch in an integrated circuit will double every 18 months, and in the near future, implant is seen to be the focus area device designers will use to stay on the performance improvement curve.

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Worldwide silicon wafer area shipments hit 1,486 million square inches in the fourth quarter of 2004, down 9 percent from the prior quarter but up 7 percent from the fourth quarter of 2003, according to the SEMI Silicon Manufacturers Group (SMG).
However, silicon wafer area shipments totaled 6,262 million square inches in 2004, up 22 percent from the 5,149 million square inches shipped during 2003, according to the SMG.
"Even though 300-mm wafer shipments were over 15 percent of the total shipments by the fourth quarter and total wafer shipments surpassed the 2000 peak, total revenues in 2004 for silicon wafers were below the 2000 level," he said.
