New Quartz Fabrication Technology from Crystal Research Corporation

    MESA, AZ, May 22, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Semiconductor Products and Services (SPS), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CRC Crystal Research Corporation (CYSA), a hi-tech technology crystal and semiconductor products manufacturing company, is pleased to announce that it has added another technology to its portfolio, "Hot Substrate Deposition of Fused Silica". The method converts gases or liquids into quartz particles to form high purity, controlled water content or water free, doped or undoped man-made quartz body. Desired index of refraction, purity and mechanical strength for various quartz parts for the semiconductor and optical markets is now made possible. Custom made parts such as tubes, rods, plates and other shapes of desired sizes can be made using this technology. The technology is a continuation in part of CRC's expansion into the semiconductor equipment and equipment support market and establishing a gateway for many of its patented technologies for that market.

Dr. Kiril Pandelisev, Chief Executive Officer of CRC, stated, "CRC currently provides quartz products and services to the semiconductor sector through its Semiconductor Products and Services (SPS) Division." He added, "This patent opens the door to expand our offering of higher purity quartz for the semiconductor and the fiber optic fabrication market. This further complements our capabilities as described in our patents for silicon or silicon alloy wafer boats and other wafer processing parts and assemblies. Now we can offer products for chips that contain small and not so small devices, from 30 nanometers for the latest PC's to devices used in the automotive vehicles and various home appliances. It simply adds to our product menu suitable for companies such as ASM International (ASMI), Boeing (BA), Northrop Grumman (NOC), Lockheed Martin (LMT), Intel (INTC), Microchip (MCHP), Carl Zeiss, Canon, and others. It also expands the list of potential customers to us as well."

"Being able to offer highest grade fused silica based material opens the doors for higher quality quartz products for the semiconductor industry, as well as fused silica boules for fabrication of optical fibers. Controlled OH, doped and undoped, fused silica products can now be offered by us. This will allow us to continue our dedication to the high quality standards, and continue to grow as a supplier for many products and services used in the chip fabrication process, from high purity quartz, to silicon/silicon alloy products, other needs," stated Dr Don Jackson, President of the SPS division.

About CRC Crystal Research Corporation:

CRC Crystal Research Corporation's (www.crccrystal.com) initial main focus is on the manufacturing or "growing" of various types of crystals that will be utilized in a large number of military, medical and industrial applications. CRC's patented SCT method of growing flat plates of ultra-pure crystals, based on patented technology, applies a new solution to an old problem. Based on experimental data and their experience in this technology field, CRC's management believes they have the ability to grow crystals of any desired width, length and thickness needed to meet customers' exact specifications; thus significantly reducing scrap and, in turn, increasing profit. Additionally, the space requirement for SCT plate growth is estimated to be approximately 200 times less than that for the standard Bridgman-Stockbarger method. Furthermore, the single crystallinity yield of the process is drastically increased and production costs are reduced proportionately. This benefits the industry by decreasing the production cost of uniform, high purity, low built-in stress crystal plates. CRC's technology has been discussed in depth with leading industry crystal users such as Lockheed Martin, GE Medical, Phillips, Halliburton, Intel, Canon, Nikon, Sematech International, ASML, Zeiss and others. Our data show many advantages of the SCT process over the outdated conventional methods.
