Faqs:
  • How are sapphire wafers manufactured?
    Sapphire wafers are produced using the Czochralski process, where a seed crystal is dipped into molten aluminium oxide and slowly pulled out while rotating to form a large boule, which is then sliced into thin wafers.
  • How should sapphire wafers be handled and stored?
    Handle with clean gloves to avoid contamination and store in a clean, dry environment. Use protective cases to prevent damage and moisture absorption.
  • What are the environmental and safety considerations for sapphire wafer production?
    Production involves high temperatures and energy consumption, requiring waste management and energy efficiency. Safety protocols are necessary due to high temperatures and material brittleness.
