Of course microfluidic chips deal with electric current
"micro" "fluidics"----> "fluids": devices that are made to move fluids around basically using precise pumps or capillary force. I dont care if they are made of SiC or GaN or Quark matter, this devices are not made to move or process electrical current and signals, they are made to move fluids from point A to point B. Attaching an arduino to the end will not make them electrical devices.
Mems can convert mechanical energy into electrical signals and photonics devices convert electrical signals into light signals to process and back. This are by the way are not electrical devices, those are much closer to semiconducting and electrical devices than microfluidics ever be.

Oh yes they are.

You're wrong and underlining lines from articles by industry outsiders doesn't change that. All it does is show you have little to no understanding of the actual semiconductor industry like I've shown again and again.

why do you keep sending articles from non reputable sources? VBdata.cn isn't an authoritative semiconductor industry publication.

Not exactly. MEMS and microfluidic chips can have semiconductors integrated into them, but they themselves are not semiconductors.
by his ridiculous logic a SiC brake pad is semiconductor technology too.

MEMS are indeed fabricated using the same tools as semiconductors - you still need mask deposition, lithography, develop, deposit, etch, etc and indeed, in complicated processes. But that only looks like a semiconductor process. The key structures are mechanical, not electrical.

If MEMs is semiconductor process, then photovoltaic is 100% semiconductor industry too. Photovoltaic in fact uses every single technique of semiconductors such as

So if you want to include MEMs and microfluidics, which are only tangentially related to semiconductor by technique, application and domain, then guess what? Photovoltaic is semiconductor industry too.

The performance parameters of semiconductor equipment are equal to the international level. This subdivision leader revealed that the current order is full.​


The core technology formed by the independent research and development of the three major products has reached the international advanced level, and the overall performance and key parameters of the company's products have reached the international level of similar equipment.
Today, Tuojing Technology (piotech) disclosed the survey minutes of institutions. The company welcomed 102 institutions for research from July 1 to July 31, including many well-known foreign institutions such as GIC, UBS Asset Management, and Morgan Stanley.Tuojing Technology is mainly engaged in high-end semiconductor special equipment. The main products include three series of plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) equipment, atomic layer deposition (ALD) equipment and sub-atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition (SACVD) equipment. It is worth noting that the company is also the only domestic manufacturer of integrated circuit PECVD and SACVD equipment for industrial application. Its products have been widely used in domestic mainstream wafer fab production lines such as SMIC, Hua Hong Group, and Yangtze Memory.In this survey, Tuojing Technology said that in the first half of the year, the company closely followed the rhythm of the expansion of downstream fabs and actively promoted the signing of orders. At present, the company has full orders in hand.In terms of product technology, Tuojing Technology mentioned that the core technology formed by its three major products has reached the international advanced level, and the overall performance and key parameters of the company's products have reached the international level of similar equipment.Among them, in terms of PECVD products, Tuojing Technology said that it can basically achieve the coverage of various types of thin film processes of 28nm and above, including general-purpose dielectric films, advanced dielectric films and hard masks.In addition, the company continues to be optimistic about the market development potential of PECVD, and believes that PECVD is the most widely used in thin film deposition equipment. It is expected that the PECVD equipment market will still show a growth trend in the next few years.Tuojing Technology also disclosed the progress of other products in the survey. The company's PEALD equipment can cover the logic chip 55-14nm SADP, STI process and storage fields, and the product has achieved industrial application; ThermalALD is mainly used in logic chips below 28nm, Currently optimized design and verification tests are carried out according to customer specifications.In terms of the progress of advanced production lines, Tuojing Technology revealed that its products currently used in advanced production lines of 14nm and below are mainly under verification, and the progress of equipment verification needs to be determined by the customer's rhythm.
