The heart and soul of computer (or most other semiconductor) chips is silicon. Very, very pure silicon. It is on a silicon substrate that the tiny amounts of other stuff is deposited to create the circuits of something like a microprocessor or a very large scale solid state memory integrated circuit. Got links if you want to check them out. The pictures alone are worth the trouble to surf on over.
