Message-ID: <28232589.ea5@petunia.CalPoly.EDU> Date: 4 May 91 21:20:09 GMT Distribution: ca Organization: ACS, Cal Poly, San Luis Lines: 12 Hello, well, the title says it all. To add more background, suppose I bought two or three acres of desert which has lots of sand. Sand has lots of silicon right? How do you turn that into poly-silicon ingots for a wafer fab? Is it overly involved / complicated? -Myron // no flames please.
