First this question contains a common confusion: it is silicon not silicone.
- Silicon is an element on the Periodic Table, the most common element present in minerals on earth, frequently used in its purified elemental form to make semiconductor electronic devices.
- Silicones are various chemical compounds, equivalent to organic compounds except the carbon atoms are replaced by silicon atoms. Silicones may be oils, plastics, glues, etc. They cannot be used as semiconductors.
Now to answer the question: in 1957 Fairchild Semiconductor opened in Palo Alto, California and began making the first silicon mesa transistors; in 1958 Fairchild Semiconductor developed the planar process, making almost all earlier methods of transistor manufacture instantly obsolete; in 1959 Fairchild Semiconductor made the first monolithic silicon integrated circuit (aka silicon chip) using the planar process. Full production of the first commercial monolithic silicon integrated circuit (a flip-flop containing 4 transistors, called the MicroLogic type "F") began in 1960.
The answer is 1959, with sales beginning in 1960. Take your pick.
