Microchips
Microchips are generally the basic components of modern miniaturized electronics. The chip is a series of electrical circuits built into a tiny wafer of silicon or another semiconductor. These circuits may be made by exposing the chip to a high temperature vapor of controlled composition. The vapor deposits a thin layer on the silicon to produce complex layers of materials such as those found in transistors.
