Semiconductor Industry, the Foundation of the Contemporary Technological Revolution, has been continuously evolving from the early transistors to today’s advanced microchips. Historically dominated by powers such as the United States, the last decade has witnessed the rise of Asia, especially China, as a vital center for production and research, reshaping the geopolitical balance of the sector. Driven by the growing demand for electronic devices and digitization, the industry faces challenges such as the recent chip shortage, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, emerging technologies like tunnel gate transistors, graphene, and resistive memory promise to further revolutionize the field. This narrative review provides a comprehensive analysis of the evolution of semiconductors, highlighting technological innovations, current challenges, and geopolitical implications, with a special focus on the intersection between economy and technology.

La industria de semiconductores, base de la revolución tecnológica contemporánea, ha evolucionado continuamente desde los primeros transistores hasta los avanzados microchips de hoy en día. Históricamente dominada por potencias como los Estados Unidos, la última década ha sido testigo del ascenso de Asia, especialmente de China, como un centro vital de producción e investigación, reconfigurando el equilibrio geopolítico del sector. Impulsada por la creciente demanda de dispositivos electrónicos y la digitalización, la industria enfrenta desafíos como la reciente escasez de chips, agravada por la pandemia de la COVID-19. Sin embargo, tecnologías emergentes como transistores de puerta de túnel, grafeno y memoria resistiva prometen revolucionar aún más el campo. Esta revisión narrativa ofrece un análisis integral de la evolución de los semiconductores, destacando innovaciones tecnológicas, desafíos actuales e implicaciones geopolíticas, con especial atención a la intersección entre la economía y la tecnología.

“…After chemical decapsulation was carried out, the bridging joints were observed. An open was suspected to be at a solder bump from fault isolation analysis through TDR [4]. In traditional FA process, physical cross-sectioning may be performed to confirm the failure location, it takes more time and possibly the defect may be missed.…”

Failure analysis (FA) plays an important role in semiconductor industry as the process technology and new packaging are continuously improved. Fault localization is a key step to narrow down the area of failed part and isolate the defective areas, which is prior to destructive failure analysis. This paper will cover some advanced fault localization techniques and tools in package and die/device level failure analysis. Case studies for those techniques will provide a good understanding and illustrate the applications.
