Silicon Metal is available as disc, granules, ingot, pellets, pieces, powder , rod, sputtering target, wire, and in numerous other forms and custom shapes.
Silicon is the element, when ultrapure, is solid with a blue-grey metallic sheen. Silicon is one of the most useful elements to mankind. Most are used to make alloys including aluminium-silicon and ferro-silicon (iron-silicon). These are used to make dynamo and transformer plates, engine blocks, cylinder heads, and machine tools and to deoxidize steel.
The element silicon is used extensively as a semiconductor in solid-state devices in the computer and microelectronics industries. For this, hyperpure silicon is needed. The silicon is selectively doped with tiny amounts of boron, gallium, phosphorus, or arsenic to control its electrical properties.
