I used to work in a semiconductor lab back in college and I really enjoyed it. I was always told that it was nearly impossible to make working transistors in a home lab, much less an integrated circuit. However, recently I’ve been made aware of one or two other people on the internet who have succeeded in doing just that. I’ve always wanted to try myself, so why not? I cobbled together a bunch of supplies I had on hand and purchased some new stuff as well. My ultimate goal is to try and make an integrated circuit, which I will define as “two transistors on the same chip.” For now, I’ll start researching what I need to build or buy and keep you posted!
