Product Name: Wedge Post / Spider Assembly (Wafer Support)

Product Description: A multi-leg, ceramic-coated metallic assembly that supports the wafer edge during high-temperature processes. It provides stable, low-contact wafer support and allows for uniform thermal transfer.

Technical Specifications:

  • Material: Stainless steel core with high-purity alumina coating

Detailed content

  • Configuration: 3-point (tri-star) contact design
  • Contact Tip: Radius 0.5mm (minimizes wafer contact area)
  • Height: 15mm (fixed)
  • Temperature Rating: Up to 700°C
  • Coating Thickness: 200μm (dense, non-porous)
  • Mounting: Bolt-down to chamber pedestal

    Key Features:

  • Minimizes wafer backside contamination & defects
  • High thermal stability for uniform processing
  • Ceramic coating prevents metallic contamination
  • Robust design resists breakage from thermal cycling
  • Easy installation & alignment

    Application Scenarios:

    Used in AMAT Centura RTP (Rapid Thermal Processing) & Epitaxy chambers. Supports wafers during high-temperature annealing and silicon epitaxy processes.
