Synthetic quartz is a high-purity material that has become an
essential material in electronics application due to its favorable chemical and
physical properties. Oxygen, hydrogen, and silicon compounds such as silicon
tetrachloride are used to produce synthetic quartz. Synthetic quartz offers
various beneficial properties. These include resistance to acids, corrosion,
high temperatures, wear, impact, compression, bending and infiltration. Thus,
it is widely used in the electronics industry. High purity synthetic quartz possesses
low volume of impurities, linear defects, and inclusions. Commercially, the
hydrothermal process is adopted to produce synthetic quartz. Types of synthetic
quartz include synthetic quartz crystal, synthetic quartz glass, etc.
Applications
of synthetic
quartz include electronics - majorly to semiconductor industry and
solar industry. Synthetic quartz is also employed in optical fibers and
photo-mask substrates for large scale integration (LSI) in semiconductor
circuit and liquid crystal display (LCD) panels. Demand for large size and
finer images is emerging with increasing demand for LCD panels. Synthetic
quartz is the basic material in photo mask, which is used in etching of
ultrafine circuit of display panel. This, in turn, leads to perfect precision
required for high resolution and clarity of large-sized display panels.
Photo-mask substrates made from synthetic quartz possess properties of
excellent permeability and low thermal expansibility in the far ultraviolet
range.
Synthetic
quartz is also used in lithography tools due to its outstanding property of
transparency to light in different wavelengths of visible spectrum and
extremely low coefficient of thermal expansion. These lithography tools are
used for transferring fine circuit pattern in a photo-mask on to a wafer during
the production of semiconductor integrated circuits. Synthetic quartz used in
lithography tools meets the requirement of finer circuits in order to form a
high-resolution circuit pattern image on the surface of wafer.

Synthetic
quartz is also prominently employed in optical components, which are used in
wavelength lasers of microlithography projection systems. In this, optical
components made of synthetic quartz are used to transmit high-energy
ultraviolet laser radiation for producing large-scale integrated circuits on
substrates. These components are highly resistant to laser, making them
suitable for high-power or short-wavelength lasers. High purity synthetic
quartz is also used to produce crucibles which pulls the single crystal silicon
used to produce semiconductor devices and solar cells. High purity quartz is
used for single crystal ingots from silicon metal in the solar industry.
