The unparalleled material strength and hardness give Semicorex horizontal silicon carbide boats excellent supporting capacity, which enables them to stably carry multiple wafers simultaneously. Through precision slot machining, Semicorex horizontal silicon carbide boats can firmly fix and securely hold semiconductor wafers. The evenly spaced slot structure ensures that wafers maintain a fixed position throughout the entire processing cycle, thereby guaranteeing the consistency and precision of semiconductor manufacturing processes.
Thanks to their superior high-temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, Semicorex horizontal silicon carbide boats are capable of withstanding rigorous operating environments, such as high-temperature atmospheres of oxygen, nitrogen, or low-concentration hydrogen chloride. These exceptional material properties can effectively prevent corrosion and damage caused by high-temperature corrosive gases, which greatly extend the operational lifespan of the boats.
Different from conventional silicon carbide-coated graphite boats, Semicorex horizontal silicon carbide boats are fabricated from semiconductor-grade, high-purity silicon carbide (99.999%) with ultra-low impurity content. This premium material selection eliminates the risk of contaminant outgassing or coating peeling, even when exposed to high-temperature and harsh corrosive environments. Additionally, each of our silicon carbide boats is subjected to stringent ultrasonic cleaning processes before vacuum packaging, which guarantees compliance with the cleanliness standards required by advanced semiconductor manufacturing processes.
