Superquartz™  Film Thickness Monitor Crystals

SuperQuartz™  is the next generation of microbalance crystal. With identical or in some cases superior properties to quartz,SuperQuartz crystals allow operation at elevated temperatures. We supply these crystals in standard 6 MHz, 14 mm diameter, and are an exact replacement for a standard quartz crystal. These will work with any standard crystal monitor that operates at 6 MHz.

 We have successfully used SuperQuartz™crystals at 920°C in a project funded by the US National Science Foundation. At that temperature the crystal was glowing cherry red and still oscillated! The applications for this wonder material remain to be developed, but current projects for CVD (chemical vapor deposition), ALD (atomic layer deposition) and high temperature chemical kinetic reactions are underway at a number of our customers.
