Silicon Carbide Cantilever Paddle is a high performance industrial component based on Reaction Bonded SiC (RBSiC) technology. Designed for harsh scenarios such as semiconductor wafer processing, photovoltaic cell coating and high temperature chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Its unique single-arm cantilever structure, combined with the extreme resistance characteristics of silicon carbide, can still maintain millimeter-level deformation accuracy in the continuous high temperature environment of 1350℃, becoming a revolutionary solution to replace traditional quartz, metal alloys and other materials.

Material breakthrough: Engineering reconstruction of silicon carbide

1. Micro miracle of reaction sintering process

About 10-15% free silicon phase is formed at the grain boundary of the cantilever paddle through the reaction sintering process of silicon melt penetrating the sic preform, forming a three-dimensional interlock structure. This microstructure gives it a density of 3.02 g/cm³, a porosity of less than 0.1%, and a bending strength of up to 250 MPa (20 ℃) while maintaining a lightweight weight (40% less than stainless steel), while maintaining an elastic modulus of 300 GPa even at 1200 ℃.

2. The ultimate balance of thermodynamic parameters

The thermal expansion coefficient (CTE) of the cantilever is precisely controlled at 4.5×10-6K-1, which is highly matched to the coating material of the LPCVD (low pressure chemical Vapor deposition) equipment to reduce the interface stress caused by thermal mismatch. Its thermal conductivity reaches 45 W/(m·K) at 1200℃, which can quickly soak heat and avoid local overheating, and with the patented design of the heat dissipation hole array, the temperature difference of the wafer tray is less than 2℃/m²

Technical advantage: The leap from laboratory to mass production

1. Automatic adaptive design

The load area of the cantilever paddle adopts a modular window structure (aperture accuracy ±0.05mm), which supports a 12-axis linkage grasping system equipped with 150-300mm wafers and compatible with the robot arm. The fixed ends were provided with a gradient wall thickness (δ₁=8.6mm to δ₁ 4.8mm) to ensure the structural rigidity and decrease the overall weight by 22% in ₃ to meet the dynamic stability requirements in high-speed transmission.

2. Revolution in pollution control

By in-situ generation of 2-5μm SiO₂ passivation layer on the surface, the cantilever blade in the corrosive atmosphere containing Cl₂, HF, metal ion precipitation is less than 0.1 ppb, which is 3 orders of magnitude lower than the alumina material. After 1000 high-temperature cycle tests, the number of surface particles falling off is always less than 5 /m2, meeting the Class 10 cleanliness requirements of semiconductor manufacturing.
