solid state

A term describing electronic components or devices that rely on semiconductor materials (such as silicon) rather than moving parts or vacuum tubes, often used in reference to storage drives, relays, or circuits.

• 🇨🇳指使用半导体材料（如硅）而非机械运动部件或真空管工作的电子元件或设备，常用于描述固态硬盘、固态继电器或电路。

1. Physics and Chemistry B2 formal

   Relating to the state of matter characterized by rigidity and a fixed shape, as opposed to liquid or gas.

   • Water in its solid state is ice.
   • Solid state physics studies the properties of rigid materials.
   • The transition from liquid to solid state occurs at the freezing point.

2. Electronics B2 formal

   Relating to electronic components that use semiconductors (e.g., transistors) instead of moving parts or vacuum tubes.

   • Solid state drives (SSDs) are faster and more durable than traditional hard drives.
   • Modern computers use solid state memory for storage.
   • The amplifier uses solid state technology for better sound quality.
