Wettenberg (euro adhoc) - (Wettenberg, September 24, 2012). PVA TePla AG - a
manufacturer of silicon crystallization systems and vacuum and high-temperature
systems - has, in the SICube, a high-temperature system for manufacturing
silicon carbide (SiC) crystals. The crystals manufactured in the SiCube are
mainly required by customers working in high-tech markets. Typical applications
include high-performance electronics (e.g. hybrid and electric cars, air
conditioning systems and photovoltaics) and optoelectronics, in which the
specific properties of the silicon carbide material such as high thermal
conductivity are of benefit.
PVA TePla supplies two different types of system: HTCVD (high-temperature
chemical vapor deposition) and HTCVT (high-temperature chemical vapor
transport). These can each generate crystals with a diameter of up to 6 inches
(150 mm). So far, two major manufacturers from Europe and Asia have been won as
customers for this type of system. The SICube is a compact crystal growing
system. It uses high-quality materials and component that offer numerous
customer benefits thanks to their user-friendliness with an intuitive user
interface and high process accuracy.
