OVERVIEW

Electronic information and communications are fundamental to the basic infrastructure of modern society. Today's advanced information society is built upon networked layers of transistors fabricated on silicon wafers and other semiconductor substrates. LSIs are fabricated by networking billions of transistors on a wafer, and CPU modules and other advanced capabilities are achieved by interconnecting LSIs to the outside devices. It is through this building-block approach that the PCs and other electronic products we use every day are constructed. In building up this network, advanced materials are critically involved in everything from the fabrication of LSIs to the implementation of optical communications. Anticipating these needs, Hitachi is striving to be a global leader in the research, development, and marketing of advanced highly functional materials products.
