Sapphire > Sapphire Wafer Carriers

Sapphire wafer carriers are manufactured to your exacting specifications and offer a stable carrier for processing GaAs and other semiconductors. Sapphire wafer carriers are durable, chip, chemical and scratch resistant and will stand up to repeated use. Because of sapphire's extreme hardness, it will provide stronger and more durable carrier than quartz and other materials.
