H10 SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES; ELECTRIC SOLID-STATE DEVICES NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR
Description
H10 encompasses semiconductor devices and electric solid-state devices that do not fall within the more specific semiconductor classes (H01L) or microstructure-related classifications. This class serves as a residual category for novel or unconventional solid-state electronic devices, emerging semiconductor technologies, and electric devices based on solid-state principles that lack dedicated classification spaces elsewhere in the H01 range. The classification includes theoretical frameworks, general device concepts, and hybrid approaches that bridge multiple semiconductor disciplines but do not cleanly fit established subcategories.
IPC and CPC are identically structured here. All 8 subcodes exist in both systems.
2 shared codes have differing titles between IPC and CPC.
IPC defines codes here since 2023.
