Ceramic Electrical Conductivity Guide: Al2O3, AlN, SiC and ESD-Safe Ceramics

Ceramics are often described as electrical insulators, but this description is incomplete. In semiconductor equipment, electronics manufacturing, vacuum systems, wafer handling, and precision automation, ceramic components may be required to perform very different electrical functions. Some components must provide extremely high electrical insulation. Others need controlled semiconductive behavior to prevent static charge accumulation. Certain silicon

Wafer Boat Slot Geometry Guide: V-Groove, U-Groove, Contact Area and Wafer Edge Protection

Wafer boat performance depends on more than the boat material, wafer capacity and overall dimensions. The geometry of each wafer slot directly affects wafer positioning, edge contact, loading stability, thermal movement and the risk of chipping or particle generation. A slot that is too narrow may grip the wafer edge too tightly. A slot that
