Ultra- Flat Prime-Grade Silicon/Silica Wafers

We offer ultra-flat silicon and silica wafers of the prime grade to our laboratory-based clients for various research applications. These silicon and SiO2 thermal oxide wafers are perfect for chemical deposition or cell growth. Our diced silicon wafers (5 mm × 5 mm,  10 mm × 10 mm, or other customized sizes) with or without dry oxide coatings are ideal for direct AFM and SEM imaging. The silica substrates are silicon substrates uniformly coated with a thermally grown SiO2 surface layer. Compared with the traditional chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method, dry thermal oxidation provides a higher uniformity and a higher dielectric strength. For our silicon wafers coated with oxide layers (i.e. SiO2 fused silica wafer), we only use the dry process involving molecular oxygen to create the dry thermal oxide layer (100 nm ~ 500 nm) for all the thermal layers on top of the silicon wafers. For our silicon wafers with thicker oxide layers (i.e. 500 nm ~ 1 mm and beyond), we use the combination of dry and wet processes (i.e. dry oxides on top and bottom and wet oxides in between). 

We also provide fused silica/quartz wafers (2 inches ~ 6 inches), and they are available in two grades, JGS1 and JGS2, respectively. Due to the low thermal expansion coefficient and high optical transmission, these quartz wafers have been widely used for optical-related and research-based applications. JGS1 grade contains a large number of hydroxyl groups (2000 ppm) and reaches a transmittance of 90% in the short-wave ultraviolet region. The JGS2 quartz glass produced by the hydrogen-oxygen flame is widely used for common applications that do not require a high transmission rate in the deep UV (DUV) region below 300 nm.

  • 5 mm x 5 mm diced chips in gel membrane box (25 pieces per box) are available for silicon/silica substrates with a thickness of 525 µm +/- 10 µm.​ 10 mm x 10 mm diced chips in gel membrane box (25 pieces per box) are available for silicon substrates with a thickness of 650 µm +/- 10 µm. Diced chips with other thicknesses are available on a customized basis. 
     

  • The prime-grade P-type wafers are known for their excellent heat tolerance. No emission of gas or elements is observed for these wafers for heating at 1,000°C / 1832°F. Due to the stability at high temperatures, silicon wafers with dry thermal oxides are available in P-type wafers.
