Semiconductor materials are single element and multi-element single crystal structures with unique electrical and photonic properties. See Crystal Growth for processes to fabricate semiconductor materials, which include:

  • Crystal "pulling" by the Czochaiski method for production of semiconductor materials

  • Flux growth and gradient freeze

  • Directional solidification of fluorites using both the Bridgman-Stockbarger and float zoning techniques

Having the properties of both conductors and insulators, "semi-conductors" provide many of the essential technological capabilities of a varied class of industrial and scientific applications beginning with silicon in the first integrated circuitry in the 1940s to cadmium telluride in state-of-the-art solar energy layers. See discussion of how semiconductors work in solar energy at AE Solar Energy.

American Elements semi conducting materials are produced from ultra high purity starting materials synthesized by our high purity production facility which includes several large electric muffle furnaces, a tube furnace for hydrogen reduction, 50 gallon glass-lined Pfaudler reactors, all supported by our extensive analytical laboratory including X-ray diffraction, SEM, AA, BET surface area, and ICP Spectrometry for trace metals analysis. See a discussion of American Elements Ultra High Purity and Analytical capabilities.
