Semiconductor wafers are used as the starting material for many types of electronic devices, including microprocessors, memory chips, and other types of integrated circuits. They are also used in the manufacture of other types of electronic devices, such as solar cells, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and thin-film transistors (TFTs). The size and thickness of semiconductor wafers vary depending on the specific application, but they are generally quite thin, often less than a millimeter thick.
