Vice President Kamala Harris was told to keep her hands to herself Monday
during a tour of a semiconductor manufacturing facility in Michigan, where
the allure of touching “shiny” silicon almost caused a serious injury.

“Here is, actually, a harvested U-rod,” an employee at Hemlock
Semiconductors in Saginaw informed Harris, 60, as she approached a large
piece of silicon covered in what appeared to be plastic wrap.

“Can I touch it?” the Democratic nominee asked as her right hand hovered
over the metalloid rod.

“Do not touch it,” the factory worker immediately responded.

“Do not,” the vice president noted. “I’m glad I asked.”

“Please do not touch any of the poly,” the hard-hat-wearing employee added
as Harris approached an enticing plate of silicon crystal chunks, just
beyond the U-rod display.

“Those are very sharp,” another man on the tour informed Harris.

“OK … and shiny,” she observed, this time keeping her distance from the
display.

Yeah ... so? "Can I touch it?" Well, can you?
Silicon wafers are hard and brittle like glass and break similarly.
Well, *everybody* knows that.
Wafers
for production must be kept extremely clean, intact experimental wafers for
lab testing can (but shouldn't) be handled by the edges without gloves.
Defective wafers became wall art.
But don't touch it.

Two more reasons to not vote for Trump in 5 days.

67) Trump made it easier for employers to remove
birth control coverage from insurance plans.

68) By the end of Trump's term, the number of people
lacking health insurance had risen by 3 million.

---------------------------------
I'm holding a reject 150mm silicon wafer by the smoothly rounded edges right
now. Black ink dots mark the numerous defective devices, so it went into the
freebie junk tub at the production manager's door and fingerprint
contamination didn't matter. I needed rejected wafers to practice placing
test probe needles on the microscopic bonding pads or in laser-cut access
holes in the top passivation layer.
