Question

Why scientist use silicon chips​

Answer 1

Answer:

Silicon is used because it can be usedas either an insulator (doesn't allow electricity to flow) or a semiconductor (allows a little flow of electricity). This is important for making chips. Also, it is very, very cheap...

• Transistors work electrically, but data can be transmitted more quickly by using light. Scientists have now come a step closer to integrating lasers directly in silicon chips. ... Optical data transfer permits much higher data rates and ranges than current electronic processes while also using less energy.
