Best Answer

Semiconductors of various designs are etched onto wafers of silicon. Those wafers are then tested to find out how many of the semiconductors have formed workable intergrated circuits. The wafer is then cut up into individual chips of intergrated circuits with the workable chips going further on in manufacuring and the non working chips either being dumped or pushed aside to lower speed chip manufacturing.

What kind of wafers are used in Intel to make computer chips?

Silicon Ingot:A large, cylindrical, single crystal made from purified silicon. The cylinder is sliced into thin wafers which are used for making computer chips. Silicon Wafer:Intel uses wafers of pure silicon cut from a silicon ingot to make microprocessors. Silicon, the primary ingredient of beach sand, is a semiconductor of electricity. Semiconductors are materials that can be altered to be either a conductor or an insulator.
