6-inch Quartz Boats

Semicorex 6-Inch Quartz Boats are precision-fabricated quartz carriers designed for handling silicon wafers during critical photovoltaic manufacturing processes, including boron diffusion, oxidation, and annealing. Manufactured from high-purity quartz glass materials, these boats provide excellent thermal stability, chemical resistance, and contamination control, ensuring reliable wafer processing under high-temperature furnace conditions.

Semicorex specializes in advanced quartz fabrication, supplying customized 6-inch Quartz Boats with precise dimensions, stable performance, and reliable quality for global photovoltaic and semiconductor manufacturers.

Precision Quartz Carriers for High-Temperature Solar Cell Processes

During solar cell production, silicon wafers must undergo multiple high-temperature processes to achieve the required electrical properties and surface characteristics. The quartz boat plays an essential role by securely holding and positioning wafers inside diffusion and thermal processing furnaces.

6-Inch Quartz Boats are manufactured using high-purity quartz glass rods and quartz glass plates through advanced fabrication processes, including precision slotting, quartz welding, grinding, and surface finishing. These manufacturing techniques ensure accurate slot spacing, strong structural integrity, and smooth contact surfaces, minimizing wafer damage during loading, unloading, and thermal cycling.

Compared with conventional materials, quartz glass provides excellent resistance to high temperatures, oxidation, and chemical corrosion. Its extremely low thermal expansion coefficient allows the quartz boat to maintain dimensional stability during rapid heating and cooling cycles, ensuring consistent wafer positioning throughout the production process.
