Is it harmful to be a process engineer in compound semiconductor epitaxy?

The work of the process engineer of compound semiconductor epitaxy is harmful to some extent.

Because some ions in semiconductor manufacturing process, such as arsenic and gallium in ion implantation, are harmful to human body. However, the working environment protection facilities are perfect, and there is generally no danger.

Semiconductors are materials whose conductivity is between conductor and insulator at room temperature. Semiconductors have applications in integrated circuits, consumer electronics, communication systems, photovoltaic power generation, lighting, high-power power conversion and other fields. For example, diodes are devices made of semiconductors.
