SiO₂ Coated Silicon Wafers (Thermal Oxide Wafers)
High-quality silicon wafers with precisely controlled oxide layers for semiconductor and microfabrication applications.
Description
🔷 Description
Silicon wafers with a thermally grown SiO₂ layer are widely used as dielectric and passivation substrates in semiconductor and MEMS processes.
The oxide layer is formed through high-temperature thermal oxidation, ensuring excellent uniformity and stability.
🔷 Key Features
- High-quality thermal oxide (SiO₂) layer
- Excellent thickness uniformity
- Single-side or double-side coating
- Available in prime, test, or dummy grade
- Custom specifications available
