Fused Silica Substrates to Evaluate The Thermal Expansion and Fluorescence/Auto-Fluorescence Properties

A research client asked:

Question 1: Looking for 150mm (6”) LiNbO3 substrates, 500um thick, 128 degree Y-cut, SAW grade, DSP Double Side Polished, Notched (SEMI standard notch), Serialized (Need serialized) also since these are delicate, do you offer them on glass? Minimum order quantity and would be ramping up to Volume quantities of: 200, 800, 1500, and 3000 wafers Question 2: 150mm (6") Quartz wafers, DSP, 635um SEMI Notch, Serialized (or what other thicknesses available) (Single Crystal X-Cut) Looking for this in any or all of these materials – Quartz, Fused quartz, Fused Silica We specifically are evaluating the Thermal Expansion and Fluorescence/ auto-fluorescence properties. Minimum quantity, lead time.

What is the Difference Between Fused Silica and Fused Quartz?

This is a large concept， there are many different materials for fused quartz and Fused Silica .
Fused Quartz is defined as a material made by melting high purity, naturally occurring quartz crystal. The melting is conducted at around 2000°C, using either an electrically heated furnace (electrically fused) or a gas/oxygen fueled furnace (flame fused). Fused quartz is amorphous and non-crystalline.

Residual impurities from the raw material affect Fused Quartz transparency in the ultraviolet. Such as JGS2,

Fused Silica (also known as Synthetic Fused Silica) is made from a silicon-rich chemical precursor, usually using a continuous flame hydrolysis process, which involves chemical gasification of silicon, oxidation of this gas to silicon dioxide, and thermal fusion of the resulting dust (although there are alternative processes).
This results in a transparent glass with an ultra-high purity and improved optical transmission in the deep ultraviolet. Water vapor, generated as a byproduct during the fabrication process,
affects the transparency of fused silica in the infrared. Such as Corning 7979, 7980 JGS1, JGS3 etc
