Through the textual analysis of the discovery process of silicon, it can be seen that with the rise of scientific experiments and the development of elemental views in the 17-18th century, scientists used logical thinking and intuitive thinking to foresee the existence of silicon based on practice. With the development of electrochemistry and analytical chemistry, scientists successfully prepared amorphous silicon and crystalline silicon in the 19th century. In the 1930s, the discovery of silicon isotopes gave people a new understanding of the concept of silicon. In short, with the evolution of scientific thinking and the development of scientific methods, the connotation of the concept of silicon is constantly evolving and changing.
