Borosilicate Glass Wafer
Popular for its physical and
chemical properties, borosilicate glass wafer is extensively being used across
several industries, especially for applications that involve temperature
changes. These unique characteristics are bestowed upon those materials by
boron trioxide. It is very interesting to note that along with other
characteristics, these wafers have a very low coefficient of thermal expansion. IntroductionIt makes these materials irreplaceable for use in laboratory equipme

What is the Difference Between​ Silicon-on-Insulator Wafers and Czochralski Silicon (Cz-Si) Wafers?
Generally, silicon-on-insulator is a single-crystalline layer as
thin as 10 nm sitting on an insulating material such as silicon oxide with
extensive applications in high-speed integrated circuits, consumer electronics,
especially mobile wireless applications and other hand-held devices. Silicon is
known to be used predominantly as a considerably abundant semiconductor
material on earth crust (nearly 28%) and is relatively easy
to be converted into highly pure singular crystalline mat
