No digitalisation without semiconductors

A semiconductor is a substance with special electrical properties that is used above all in computers and other electronic devices. It is a chemical substance or compound that conducts electricity under certain conditions but not under others. This makes semiconductors an ideal means for controlling electrical current and operating everyday electrical devices.

Semiconductors are now built into almost every electronic device. Mobile phones, laptops, games consoles, microwaves and refrigerators all work with semiconductor elements such as integrated chips, diodes and transistors. But they are also used in embedded systems. Embedded systems are small computers that are part of a larger machine. They can control the device and enable user interaction. Embedded systems we frequently use include, for example, central heating systems, digital watches, GPS systems, fitness trackers, televisions and engine management systems in vehicles.

We think so! In a sense, semiconductors are the indispensable raw material for the industries of the future.

In a variety of ways: stocks, certificates, active funds or ETFs. At quirion, we rely on the latter.
