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.
  • ­Borosilicate glass wafers are used in CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) image sensors.

Carbon Nanotubes Specifications and Properties Carbon Nanotubes, simply CNTs, are allotropes of carbon with a round and hollow nanostructure. These barrel shaped carbon molecules have crucial properties, which are significant for nanotechnology, hardware, optics and other different fields of materials science and innovation. The carbon nanotube’s excellent quality as a strong and firm material laid the basis on many applications. Not to mention carbon nanotubes exceptional heat conductivity, electrical and mechanical properties, Carbon Nanotubes are used as additives to diverse auxiliary materials. In terms of rigidity and flexibility Carbon Nanotubes are the stiffest and strongest materials. These quality outcomes from the covalent sp2 bonds framed between the individual carbon molecules. Unlike Graphene , Carbon Nanotubes are either conductive or semiconducting along the tubular hub. Carbon Nanotubes also have absorption, fluorescence properties. Bulk Carbon nanotubes are util...

Hydroxyapatite Nanopowders and Their Applications

Hydroxyapatite, is a naturally occurring mineral form of calcium apatite with the formula Ca 5 (PO 4 ) 3 (OH). Pure hydroxyapatite powder is white. Naturally occurring apatites can, however, also have brown, yellow, or green colorations, comparable to the discolorations of dental fluorosis. Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder/Nanoparticles (50 nm, 99.95+%)  has been widely used as a biocompatible ceramic in many areas of medicine, but mainly for contact with bone tissue, due to its resemblance to mineral bone. In mammals, the skeleton presents a carbonated and partially substituted apatite, based on nanocrystal aggregates, and associated with collagen, building up 3-D structures present in various bone tissue conformations like trabecular or cancellous bone. There has been growing interest in developing bioactive synthetic ceramics that could closely mimic natural apatite characteristics. As mentioned before,  Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder  is the main inorganic constituent of bon...
