AlN Electrostatic Chuck

Aluminum Nitride Electrostatic Chuck, AlN Ceramic Electrostatic Chucks

In modern semiconductor manufacturing processes, wafers are processed in multiple steps and need to be transferred back and forth between hundreds of process equipment. A device is therefore needed to hold the wafer. The Electrostatic Chuck (ESC) uses a pressure plate with integrated electrodes. These electrodes are biased by high voltage to generate electrostatic holding force between the pressure plate and the wafer. The wafer is clamped and fixed through an Electrostatic Chuck. The adsorption force is uniform and stable, and the wafer will not warp. Deformation can ensure the processing accuracy and cleanliness of the wafer. Aluminum nitride (AlN) ceramics have high thermal conductivity and insulation properties, making them suitable for use as ESC materials. We offer custom aluminum nitride electrostatic chuck.

Edgetech Industries, Advanced Ceramics Division supplies high-quality Aluminum nitride (AlN) Ceramics Electrostatic Chuck at competitive prices.
