Her whole body is made of highly advanced synthetic jelly silicon and with 60 artificial joints in her face, neck, and lower body ; she is able to demonstrate realistic facial expressions and sing while simultaneously dancing.
silicon ( (73 uses)
Microelectronic components are created by chemically fabricating wafers of semiconductors such as silicon ( at higher frequencies, compound semiconductors like gallium arsenide and indium phosphide ) to obtain the desired transport of electronic charge and control of current.
silicon is (73 uses)
Silicon is an alternative to lead ; however, when silicon is used in a brass alloy, the scrap must never be mixed with leaded brass scrap because of contamination and safety problems.
silicon wafer (58 uses)
For example, after the implantation of nickel ions into a silicon wafer, a layer of nickel silicide can be grown in which the crystal orientation of the silicide matches that of the silicon.
silicon wafers (41 uses)
The HIC detected heavy ions using stacks of single crystal silicon wafers.
silicon in (37 uses)
The color of amethyst has been demonstrated to result from substitution by irradiation of trivalent iron ( Fe < sup > 3 +</ sup >) for silicon in the structure, in the presence of trace elements of large ionic radius, and, to a certain extent, the amethyst color can naturally result from displacement of transition elements even if the iron concentration is low.
silicon or (34 uses)
Normal ( p – n ) diodes, which operate as described above, are usually made of doped silicon or, more rarely, germanium.
