Borosilicate Glass Wafers General Information


Borosilicate glass wafers are widely used for the process of anodic bonding of silicon with glass, so that the silicon’s thermal expansion is alike to these materials. Borosilicate glass wafers were developed for thin film electronic circuits, which require an extremely smooth surface with special electrical properties. The general application of thin and ultrathin Borosilicate glass wafers is an electronic packaging of optoelectronic conductors.
Borosilicate glass wafers are preferred in many industries, e.g. research and biomedical industry, thanks to its affordability. Borosilicate glass wafers, in case of an explosion to high temperatures manages to remain clear and solid. The production applies the coating of Indium Tin Oxide onto the surface, that is transparent in a visible spectrum which reflects the infrared spectrum back at the light source. This coating is also electrically conductive (~50 ohms/square). Such technology is required for the protection of the insides of lenses, cameras and film in projectors from heat of the light sources.
Borosilicate glass wafers are the base for a large number of MEMS applications and wide range of micro-optical Applications.

Rundown about Silicon Oxide Wafer

The main insulating material used in micro-technology is Silicon Dioxide, which in chemical symbols is written as SiO2. In semiconductor technology, SiO2 thin film layers are mainly used as dielectric material film in transistors, capacitors (DRAM) or flash-memories. Silicon Oxide Wafers are produced using crystallization, solid state and other ultra-high purification processes such as sublimation. This process forms a cylindrical ingot, which is then sliced and polished to form wafers. Thermal oxide is a kind of "grown" oxide layer, compared to CVD deposited oxide layer, it has a higher uniformity, and higher dielectric strength, it is an excellent dielectric layer as an insulator . In most silicon- based devices, thermal oxide layer play an important role to pacify the silicon surface to act as doping barriers and as surface dielectrics. The simplest way to produce an insulating silicon oxide layers (SiO2) on silicon wafers is to oxidize silicon with oxygen, which ...

New Way of Deaf-Mute Communication with 3D Graphene

Image retrieved from: http://blogs.rsc.org/cc/2016/09/01/3d-graphene-adds-dimension-to-deaf%E2%80%93mute-communication/ Chinese scientists have developed wearable electronic device with conductive 3D graphene structure to translate sign language into written text. This technology can be applied by injecting graphene ink from a syringe under printed electronic field. For medical field, such as adhesive patches which determine heart, brain signal and neural activity, wearable and bio-integrated medical devices are very important. Due to noticeable properties of cast graphene, for example a 2D honeycomb lattice, excellent mechanical and electrical behaviors, Graphene has an important material in warble technology. However, it is difficult to preserve advantages of Graphene material in a 3D material which has an information about forces from every angle. Yanlin Song  and co-workers at the University of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, and Shenyang Jianzhu University...
