    摘要: This document describes the fabrication and use of ceramic stabilizing layer fabricated right on the product silicon wafer to facilitate its use as a substrate for fabrication of gallium nitride films. A ceramic layer is formed and then attached to a single crystal silicon substrate to form a composite silicon substrate that has coefficient of thermal expansion comparable with GaN. The composite silicon substrates prepared by this invention are uniquely suited for use as growth substrates for crack-free gallium nitride films, benefitting from compressive stresses produced by choosing a ceramic having a desired higher coefficient thermal expansion than those of silicon and gallium nitride.

    摘要: A seal composition includes a first alkaline earth metal oxide, a second alkaline earth metal oxide which is different from the first alkaline earth metal oxide, aluminum oxide, and silica in an amount such that molar percent of silica in the composition is at least five molar percent greater than two times a combined molar percent of the first alkaline earth metal oxide and the second alkaline earth metal oxide. The composition is substantially free of boron oxide and phosphorus oxide. The seal composition forms a glass ceramic seal which includes silica containing glass cores located in a crystalline matrix comprising barium aluminosilicate, and calcium aluminosilicate crystals located in the glass cores.

    摘要: A method for fabricating a photovoltaic (PV) cell panel wherein all PV cells are formed simultaneously on a two-dimensional array of monocrystalline silicon mother wafers affixed to a susceptor is disclosed. Porous silicon separation layers are anodized in the surfaces of the mother wafers. The porous film is then smoothed to form a suitable surface for epitaxial film growth. An epitaxial reactor is used to grow n- and p-type films forming the PV cell structures. Contacts to the n- and p-layers are deposited, followed by gluing of a glass layer to the PV cell array. The porous silicon film is then separated by exfoliation in a peeling motion across all the cells attached together above, followed by attaching a strengthening layer on the PV cell array. The array of mother wafers may be reused multiple times, thereby reducing materials costs for the completed solar panels.

    摘要: A susceptor for a wafer support of a semiconductor processing chamber having multiple parallel electrical contacts between an RF electrode and a thick robust electrode near a bottom of the susceptor. The thick robust electrode has a low resistance and, therefore, evenly distributes RF power over its area. The multiple parallel contacts ensure that the RF power is also uniformly distributed across an area of the RF electrode. A plurality of electrically conductive vias extending between the robust electrode and the RF electrode make a plurality of parallel electrical contacts therebetween. Generally, the robust electrode is attached to a bottom side of the susceptor and is aligned substantially parallel to the RF electrode. An insulator plate is attached to a bottom of the susceptor for electrically isolating the robust electrode for the pedestal.
