1. The materials mean except chip/die, the packaging materials which will remain on<br />

the product. Main materials are materials weighing over 1% product weight, while<br />

secondary materials are materials weighing less than 1% of product weight.<br />

2. Auxiliary materials are materials which are used during the manufacturing process<br />

but do not remain on the product.<br />

3. Calculation of product packaging materials shall be based on actual consumption.<br />

The life cycle of an optoelectronic <strong>semiconductor</strong> is described in Figure 1 above. The<br />

inclusion in the LCA information on recycling is voluntary (see Section 11).<br />

The LCA shall include information for the following unit processes:<br />
