Sapphire is an important material used widely in the growth of III-nitride epitaxial layers (GaN, AlN, InN, AlGaN, InGaN, InAlN, etc.) and electronics applications. For these applications, the surface roughness of the sapphire substrate is the key factor that influences its performance.
CRYSCORE provides the customers with high surface quality sapphire wafers at a low cost. The roughness is less than 0.2 nm (by AFM) for C-plane (0001) sapphire wafers, and less than 0.5 nm (by AFM) for custom orientations.
