Silanna Qualifies Laser Dicing Capability For Sapphire And Quartz Wafers
Silanna Semiconductor, a manufacturer of Silicon-on-Sapphire (SoS) technology, has qualified a fast turn laser scribe and break capability.
- (1888PressRelease) August 15, 2012 - Brisbane, Australia - Located in Brisbane, Australia, Silanna's facilities have laser scribe and break capability as well as prototype integrated circuit assembly resources such as die and wire bonding.
Andrew Greatbatch, VP of Business Development said, "There are very few companies who offer dicing services for hard materials like sapphire. Salinna now offers this capability to people who need sapphire or quartz wafers diced."
The laser scribing service may be of particular interest to LED manufacturers who use sapphire wafers. Sillana is able to dice quartz and sapphire wafers from to 2 to 6 inches in diameter.
The scribing and prototype integrated circuit assembly capabilities augment Silanna's semiconductor manufacturing services which use Silicon-on-Sapphire CMOS process technologies. Designers of RF and mixed signal ICs can take advantage of Silicon-on-Sapphire process technologies whose insulating substrate eliminates parasitic capacitances from the circuit, enabling high frequencies, low power consumption, and high Q passives.
