     02    Third generation semiconductors:   A new engine for the microelectronics industry                          
Semiconductors refer to materials whose electrical conductivity at room temperature is between conductors and insulators. The first generation of semiconductor materials mainly refers to silicon and germanium element semiconductor materials. The second generation of semiconductor materials mainly refers to compound semiconductor materials, such as gallium arsenide and indium antimonide.  
  The third generation semiconductor is hailed by the industry as the “new engine” of the microelectronics industry.It mainly includes silicon carbide and gallium nitride that are currently about to become mature applications.  
Compared with the first and second generation semiconductor materials, it has a wider bandgap, higher breakdown electric field, higher thermal conductivity, and greater electron saturation speed. It is more suitable for making high-temperature, high-frequency, radiation-resistant and high-power devices. It has huge application prospects and market potential.  
       
  my country's third-generation semiconductor has been included in one of the seven major directions of the national new materials major project in 2030.It is in a critical period of R&D and industrialization development.  
According to the plan, by 2025, my country will strive to achieve a leading position in the world in third-generation semiconductor technology, and the industrial scale will reach the first place in the world; by 2030, the entire industrial chain will reach the internationally advanced level, and the localization rate of core devices will exceed 70%.  
Industry experts say:The construction of the National Third-Generation Semiconductor Technology Innovation Center will be an important milestone in the development of my country’s third-generation semiconductor industry.  
     03    Shenzhen is ready to go!                          
The new generation of information technology and new material industries are among the seven strategic emerging industries in Shenzhen. In the "Action Plan to Further Promote the Development of the Integrated Circuit Industry (2019-2023)" issued by Shenzhen in 2019, it was proposed to accelerate the cultivation of third-generation semiconductors.  
At present, Shenzhen has established important platforms such as the Key Laboratory of Third Generation Semiconductor Devices, the Shenzhen Third Generation Semiconductor Research Institute, and the Third Generation Semiconductor Materials and Devices R&D Center of Tsinghua University (Shenzhen) Research Institute.  
March 2018,Shenzhen Third Generation Semiconductor Research Institute was officially launched.The institute was jointly established by Southern University of Science and Technology and the Third Generation Semiconductor Industry Technology Innovation Strategic Alliance.  
The institute focuses on the fields of core materials, devices, packaging and modules, focusing on the forward-looking and industrial common key technologies of third-generation semiconductors.Strive to become a national third-generation semiconductor technology innovation center.
