Q1: What is the CAS Registry Number for InAs?
A: The CAS Number for indium arsenide (InAs) is 12055-87-5.
Q2: Is InAs substrate suitable for aqueous processing or wet chemical etching?
A: InAs is susceptible to oxidation and hydrolysis in ambient air and water; all processing must be performed under inert atmosphere or using non-aqueous, anhydrous etchants (e.g., bromine-methanol or HCl-isopropanol).
Q3: How does InAs compare to GaSb and InSb substrates for MWIR detector applications?
A: InAs offers higher electron mobility and better thermal stability than InSb, and a more favorable lattice match to critical absorber layers (e.g., InAsSb) than GaSb—making it preferred for high-operating-temperature (HOT) MWIR focal plane arrays.
Q4: Are there any known extractables or leachables from InAs wafers during device fabrication?
A: Trace indium and arsenic species may be detected under aggressive acidic cleaning (e.g., concentrated HCl); however, standard RCA-1/RCA-2 followed by dilute HF dip yields extractable levels below 1 ppb per ICP-MS testing—well within semiconductor process control limits.
Q5: Does your InAs substrate carry ISO 9001 or IATF 16949 certification?
A: Our InAs substrate manufacturing process is certified to ISO 9001:2015; IATF 16949 applies only to automotive component production and is not applicable to bare semiconductor substrates.
