Semiconductors aren't built, they are chemicals. Maybe you are thinking of semiconductor electronic components.
The first semiconductor discovered was galena (lead sulfide) which was first used in a practical electronic component in 1874. The next semiconductor discovered was copper oxide which was first used in a practical electronic component in 1924. After that many others were discovered including selenium, germanium, and silicon.
It was not practical to build electronic components using silicon until 1958 when Fairchild perfected their silicon mesa process, then in 1959 their silicon planar process.

When was ON Semiconductor created?
ON Semiconductor was created in 1999.
What is a semiconductor diode and their application?
It can be either a junction or point contact diode built with semiconductor material. there are many types depending on intended usage.junction diode is produced as described in its name by forming a junction in the semiconductor by using opposite types of dopant impurities.point contact diode is produced as described in its name by taking a semiconductor base and pressing a sharp metal point on its surface.A few of the types of semiconductor diodes are: small signal, power rectifier, zener, tunnel, gunn, etc.
What does recombination in semiconductor mean?
combination of two semiconductor
Why p-substrate is used in monolithic IC not p-substrate?
entire circuit is built into a single piece of semiconductor (chip); physical properties of semiconductor to large degree determine performance of the circuit; the most common integrated circuits such as microprocessors, memories, etc., are all monolithic.
When was Vitesse Semiconductor created?
Vitesse Semiconductor was created in 1984.
When was the first semiconductor built?
The first practically useful semiconductor device seems to have been the cat's whisker detector which was based on Bose's invention of 1904. For more information please see the wikipedia article entitled semiconductor.
What is built in potential?
The built-in potential is the potential difference established at the junction of two different materials, such as a p-n junction in a semiconductor device. It arises due to the electrostatic forces that separate the charge carriers across the junction, creating a barrier for the flow of current. This potential is an important parameter in determining the behavior of semiconductor devices.
What is a semiconductor slice?
A semiconductor slice is used to make integrated circuits or ICs. It is also known as a semiconductor wafer or a semiconductor substrate.
