Semiconductors feature unique electrical characteristics. A substance is referred to as a conductor or an insulator depending on whether it conducts electricity or not. Semiconductors are materials that fall halfway in between. Semiconductors are used to make electronic discrete components like diodes and transistors as well as integrated circuits (ICs).
Germanium and silicon are common types of elemental semiconductors. Of these, silicon is well-known. Most ICs are made of silicon. Examples of typical semiconductor materials are indium antimonide and gallium arsenide.Many technological products as well as the societal infrastructure that supports our daily lives now depend on semiconductors.
Semiconductors are crucial for equipment management in a wide range of applications, including maintaining a suitable room temperature and enhancing vehicle safety.The atoms in the semiconductor materials are grouped in single crystals, which is a three-dimensional periodic arrangement. A simplified two-dimensional picture of an intrinsic (pure) silicon crystal with hardly any impurities.
In the crystal, four of each silicon atom’s closest neighbours are present. In its outer orbit, each atom contains four electrons that it shares with its four neighbours. An electron pair that is shared forms a covalent bond.
The Ethiopia Semi-conductor market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2022 to 2030.
Semiconductor imports to Ethiopia from other countries were increasing. Ethiopia’s primary supplier of semiconductors was China, from which Ethiopia imported semiconductors. Ethiopia also imported semiconductor items worth thousands of dollars from Malaysia and hundreds of thousands of dollars from the United Arab Emirates.
Ethiopia imports more semiconductors from Malaysia than any other country, with China being the biggest provider. Kayon Mountain Coffee Farm Plc and Beretukane Yerega Yetayew are the two importers with the most valuable shares of semiconductor imports.
