Semiconductors are at the heart of most electronics. We explain what semiconductors are, how they work, and just how tiny those transistors can get.

The semiconductor is suspended on a square frame such that the rectangle was bowed slightly, creating a concave shape to face the concave mirror that formed the other side of the optical cavity.
