Specific Process Knowledge/Back-end processing/LatticeAxe
The Cleaver: Lattice Axe is designed for cleaving wafers into smaller pieces without leaving any particles on the sample. The equipment is placed in the left drawer underneath fumehood 5: Special purposes. When operated the the Cleaver: lattice axe should always be placed inside Fume hood 5.
Approved Materials:
- Si
- Quartz
- Pyrex (Borofloat 33)
- GaAs
- InP
- Sapphire
The LatticeAxe can cleave samples from 100mm down to 10mm. In some cases it can even be used on 150mm samples please contact wetchemistry group for more information
