High Costs and Limited Applications

Advanced manufacturing process is required to manufacture high-quality graphite carriers with the necessary purity and precision. High expenses related to the procedures impact the total cost of PECVD graphite carriers. Even tough graphite is well-known for having superior thermal characteristics, the temperature range in which graphite carriers function effectively is limited.

Materials which can withstand extremely high/low temperatures are taken into consideration. Even though it is strong, over time, graphite will wear mechanically, especially in high-throughput semiconductor manufacturing settings. Wafers that are loaded and unloaded onto graphite carriers frequently wear down and require replacement on a regular basis. To avoid any chemical reactions, PECVD operations employing highly reactive gases necessitate careful selection of material compatibility.
