摘要 本研究企圖從技術知識場域的觀點進行技術創新之網絡結構型態分析。透過社會網絡分析，本研究從專利相互引用資料中描繪出半導體製程技術的全球技術知識場域，並以組織場域的概念探究全球頂尖半導體公司的技術知識學習創新行動。本研究企圖整合技術知識場域的知識叢集化與地位層級化結構特徵，並探討公司在這些結構條件下如何進行異質知識探索與創新。本研究利用社區偵測方法辨識技術知識場域中的不同技術領域，並探討公司的異質領域知識探索如何促進公司在場域中得到的創新評價。「跨界」與「異質性」概念區分了技術知識領域內與外的差異，並提供公司一面進行領域內的知識累積，另一面進行領域外的異質性知識學習的同步並進之圖像。並且，本研究進一步檢視不同地位條件的公司進行跨界異質性學習探索的行為模式及創新回報模式的差異。
本研究有四個主要發現。（1）半導體技術知識場域的社區結構由混亂演變到穩定，多數公司的跨界探索從積極轉向溫和狀態，且異質性探索也越趨活躍。隨著場域社區結構演化，跨界探索發展出過猶不及之特性，異質性探索促進創新的效果也逐漸增強。（2）對高地位公司來說，鞏固領域內知識優勢有利維持其創新評價，但高地位公司普遍更積極進行跨界探索，反映出高地位公司之間可能存在著競逐長期技術優勢的激烈競爭。較寬鬆的「最佳跨界比例區間」使高地位公司採取次佳策略仍不會輕易流失地位。高地位公司仰賴異質性探索來提昇創新評價。（3）對低地位公司來說，中等偏高的跨界有利提昇其創新評價，然而最低地位的公司有較高的過度跨界傾向，再加上較窄的「最佳跨界比例區間」，使其向上流動的機會受限制。低地位公司較少進行高度異質性探索，但異質性探索對低地位公司有更顯著的助益。（4）邏輯、記憶體和設備領域相較於其他技術領域有更顯著的跨界過猶不及特性，突顯出此三領域是整體半導體製造技術場域中，技術深化與創新需求最活躍的領域。
This study attempts to analyze the network structures of technological innovation from the approach of the knowledge field. Using social network analysis, it configures the global knowledge field of semiconductor process technology based on patent citation data, and explores the actions which top semiconductor companies learn and innovate from the approach of the organizational field. This research attempts to integrate characteristics of knowledge clustering, hierarchical status in the technological knowledge field, and explores how to proceed the heterogeneous exploration and innovation under these structure conditions. Using community detection methods to identify different technological domains, this study investigates how exploring diverse knowledge promotes the evaluation of firm innovation. The concepts of "trans-community" and "heterogeneity" distinguish between knowledge within and outside the domain, and provide the configuration of simultaneous processing of inside knowledge accumulation and outside heterogeneous learning. This study further examines the differentiated effects of trans-community and heterogeneous learning on the return of innovation under hierarchical status conditions.
The findings show that (1) The community structure of the global semiconductor technical knowledge field evolves from chaos to stability. The trans-community exploration for most companies has shifted from proactive to moderate state, and heterogeneous exploration has also been increasingly active. As the field community structure evolves, trans-community exploration has developed a balance-required characteristic, and the effect of heterogeneous exploration on innovation has also been increasingly strong. (2) As to high-status companies, consolidating knowledge advantages within the domain is beneficial for maintaining their evaluation of innovation, but they usually perform trans-community exploration more proactively. It implies that there may be intense competition for a long-term technology advantage among high-status companies. A broader "optimal trans-community ratio range" allows them to adopt suboptimal strategies without losing position. High-status companies rely on heterogeneous exploration to level up evaluation of innovation. (3) As to low-status companies, moderately high trans-community exploration enhances their evaluation of innovation, but companies with the lowest status rank tend to perform excessive exploration which, combined with a narrower "optimal trans-community ratio range", hinders upward mobility. Highly heterogeneous exploration is less frequent for low-status companies but more beneficial for them. (4) The balance-required characteristics is more significant in logic, memory, and equipment technology domains, which indicates these three domains have the most active technology deepening and innovation demand in the entire field.
