Si₃N₄ Coated Silicon Wafers (Silicon Nitride Wafers)
High-performance silicon wafers with silicon nitride coatings for advanced semiconductor and MEMS applications.
Description
🔷 Description
Silicon wafers coated with a silicon nitride (Si₃N₄) layer are widely used as dielectric, passivation, and barrier layers in semiconductor and microfabrication processes.
The Si₃N₄ film is typically deposited using LPCVD or PECVD methods, offering excellent uniformity, mechanical strength, and chemical stability.
🔷 Key Features
- Excellent dielectric and barrier properties
- High thermal and chemical stability
- Strong mechanical strength and durability
- Suitable for high-temperature processes
- Available in single-side or double-side coating
