A new way to make ultra-thin diamond wafers using sticky tape could help produce diamond-based electronics, which might one day be a useful alternative to silicon-based designs. Diamond has ...
Laser ablation dicing technology is specifically designed for ultra-thin wafer sawing, addressing limitations associated with blade dicing, such as side wall chipping. To achieve optimal laser ...
Thinner (and thus lighter) wafers provide greater power-to-weight ratios, which is an important factor when building satellites for low-earth orbit. NexWafe said it has developed “ultra-thin ...
It also claims that its technology can enable the production of ultra-thin wafers. It has already demonstrated this on its pilot line in Freiburg, Germany. In addition to ultra-thin wafers ...
Their findings can be found in the paper “Fracture strength analysis of large-size and thin photovoltaic monocrystalline silicon wafers,” published in Engineering Fracture Mechanics.
