1. Electronic properties of semiconductors can be controlled to suit our requirement.
2. They are smaller in size and light weight.
3. They can operate at smaller voltages (of the order of few mV) and require less current (of the order of pA or mA), therefore, consume lesser power.
4. Almost no heating effects occur, therefore these devices are thermally stable.
5. Faster speed of operation due to smaller size.
6. Fabrication of ICs is possible.
