Cook talked about the reasons for the success of China's electronic assembly industry, and the technical problems of American manufacturing
Why is China so successful in electronics manufacturing and assembly? Most people would say it's because of low labor costs. But Apple CEO Tim Cook says this is one of the biggest misconceptions about manufacturing electronics in China. "In the fact, China stopped being a low labor cost country years ago," Cook explained at the Fortune Technology conference. "The biggest attraction for us is the quality of the people."

Silicon carbide wafer cutting types
Silicon carbide (SiC) is considered as an alternative material for silicon (Si) -based semiconductors in the electronics industry due to its wide band gap, high mechanical strength and high thermal conductivity. SiC power devices caoperate at higher voltages, frequencies, and temperatures, and are able to convert power with higher efficiency or lower power losses.
