Overview
NGK Insulators is headquartered in Nagoya and builds its businesses on ceramic technology. For semiconductor equipment it supplies chamber parts made of aluminium nitride and alumina ceramics.
These include electrostatic chucks, ceramic heaters and susceptors that hold and heat wafers in high-temperature and plasma environments.
Business: Electrostatic chucks, ceramic heaters and susceptors
Why it matters
- Aluminium nitride conducts heat well and resists plasma, which makes it a common material for heaters in CVD chambers.
- The heater or chuck under the wafer sets temperature uniformity, so it affects every film deposited on it.
