👉 In chemistry, a cuprate is a type of semiconductor. It is a material that consists of a silicon atom surrounded by two or more other atoms and is known as a group III element. The structure of a cuprate is very similar to that of a diamond, with four atoms aligned in a triangular lattice. These materials are used in various applications such as solar cells, which convert sunlight into electricity, and in the manufacture of advanced semiconductor devices. Cuprates can be classified based on their crystal
