MEMC Electronic Materials

Description: This Quicktime animation shows an optional process for creating silicon epitaxial wafers. The animations shows a trichlorosilane gas being injected which creates a monocrystaline film atop the preexisting wafer. This is the seventh animation in a series of how silicon wafers are created.

The previous animation showing silicon wafer polishing can be seen here.

The next and final animation in this sequence about silicon wafer laser inspection can be seen here.
