Effect of annealing on the residual stress and strain distribution in CdZnTe wafers

Effect of annealing on the residual stress and strain distribution in CdZnTe wafers
The effect of annealing on residual stress and strain distribution in CdZnTe wafers was studied based using an X-ray diffraction (XRD) method. The results proved the effectiveness of annealing on the reduction of the residual stress and strain. By the means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and infrared (IR) transmission analyses, it was found that dislocation gliding, decreases in the size of the Te precipitates, dispersing of Te precipitates, composition homogenization, and point defects recombination contributed to a reduction of the residual stress and strain during annealing of the wafer. Additionally, the larger residual stress in CdZnTe wafers introduced bigger lattice misfits. Thus, for more the residual stress and strain in the CdZnTe wafer, the IR transmission will be lowered.

Float-Zone Mono-Crystalline Silicon

PAM-XIAMEN can offer float zone silicon wafer, which is obtained by Float Zone method. Monocrystalline silicon rods is got through float zone growth, and then process the monocrystalline silicon rods into silicon wafers, called float zone silicon wafers. Since the zone-melted silicon wafer is not in contact with the quartz crucible during the floating zone silicon process, the silicon material is in a suspended state. Thereby, it is less polluted during the process of floating zone melting of silicon. The carbon content and oxygen content are lower, the impurities are less, and the resistivity is higher. It is suitable for the manufacture of power devices and certain high-voltage electronic devices.
