Njengoba isidingo somhlaba wonke sobuchwepheshe be-photonics obuthuthukisiwe kanye ne-semiconductor siqhubeka nokusheshisa, ukunemba nokuzinza kwemishini yokukhiqiza kuye kwaba yinto ebalulekile ekufinyeleleni ikhwalithi yokukhiqiza eqhubekayo. Onjiniyela abasebenza ngezingxenye zokuxhumana ze-optical, amathuluzi okukhiqiza ama-chip, kanye nemishini yokuhlanganisa yezinga le-wafer bathembela kakhulu ku-granite njengento yokwakha. Ukuphakama kwesisekelo somshini we-granite wedivayisi yokubeka i-optical waveguide kubonisa ushintsho olubanzi ekuthandweni kwemboni, lapho itshe lemvelo lithatha indawo yezinsimbi zendabuko njengesisekelo sezinsimbi ezinembe kakhulu.
Izinhlelo zesimanje zokuqondisa amagagasi okukhanya zincike ekuqondeni okunembe kakhulu. Ngisho nokudlidliza okuncane noma ukukhukhuleka kokushisa kungaphazamisa ukusebenza kahle kokuxhuma, ukuqondisa imisebe, noma ubuqotho bemiphumela yokulinganisa. Ngenxa yalesi sizathu, abakhiqizi baphendukele ekuqineni kwe-granite assembly yedivayisi yokubeka i-optical waveguide, enikeza ukuqina kanye nokuqina kobukhulu obudingekayo emisebenzini yokunyakaza kanye nokuqondanisa ngezinga elincane. Ubuningi obukhulu bemvelo be-Granite kanye nokwanda kokushisa okuphansi kuqinisekisa ukuthi izingxenye zokukhanya zihlala zizinzile ngisho nangaphansi kokusebenza okuqhubekayo noma ukuskena okusheshayo.
Isakhiwo sesisombululo sokubeka i-optical siqine kuphela njengezinto ezisisekelayo. Kulokhu, isakhiwo se-granite sedivayisi yokubeka i-optical waveguide sinikeza izinzuzo izinsimbi nezinhlanganisela eziklanywe ngobunjiniyela ezingenakukwazi ukuzifanisa. I-granite imunca ukudlidliza kunokuba iyidlulisele, okusiza ukuvikela izinhlangano ze-optical ezibucayi ekuphazamisekeni kwemvelo. Isakhiwo sayo sangaphakathi esifanayo sivimbela ukugoba, kuyilapho ukuzinza kwayo kokushisa kuvumela ukubeka okuphindaphindwayo okubalulekile ekuhlanganiseni, ekuqondisweni kwe-laser, noma ekupakishweni kwe-micro-optical.
Lezi zici ezifanayo zichaza ukuthi kungani i-granite isibe yinto ebaluleke kakhulu emishinini ye-semiconductor. Njengoba ama-geometri edivayisi encipha futhi ukubekezelelana kwenqubo kuqina, imboni idinga amapulatifomu okufaka anikeza ubuqotho obuphelele bobukhulu. Ukuhlanganiswa kwezingxenye ze-granite zamathuluzi enqubo yokukhiqiza i-semiconductor kuqinisekisa ukuthi izigaba ze-lithography, izinhlelo zokuhlola, kanye nezinhlangano zokuphatha i-wafer zisebenza ngaphakathi kokubekezelelana kwe-sub-micron. Imishini ye-semiconductor kumele isebenze isikhathi eside ngaphansi kwezimo ezilawulwa ngokuqinile, futhi ukumelana kwemvelo kwe-granite nokuguga, ukugqwala, kanye nokuguqulwa kwenza kube kuhle kakhulu ekuzinzeni kwesikhathi eside.
Emigqeni eminingi yokukhiqiza i-semiconductor, imishini ebalulekile yakhelwe phezu kwesisekelo se-granite sedivayisi yenqubo yokukhiqiza i-semiconductor, ekhethwe ngqo ngenxa yekhono layo lokugcina ukunemba naphezu kokushintshashintsha kwezinga lokushisa, imithwalo yemishini esindayo, kanye nemijikelezo yokunyakaza okusheshayo. Onjiniyela babika njalo ukuthi i-granite inciphisa ukukhukhuleka komshini, yehlisa ukudluliselwa kokudlidliza, futhi inciphisa imvamisa yokulinganisa kabusha—intuthuko ehumushela ekuvuneni okuphezulu kanye nesikhathi esincishisiwe sokungasebenzi.
Esinye isizathu esenza i-granite ithandwe ezinhlelweni ze-photonics kanye neze-semiconductor ukuthi ihambisana nemishini enembile kakhulu. Ubuso bayo bungapholishwa ukuze bube bushelelezi kakhulu, busekele izigaba zokunyakaza ezinembile, amabhentshi e-optical, kanye ne-metrology fixtures. Uma ihlanganiswe nezinhlelo zokuthwala umoya ezithuthukisiwe noma iziqondiso eziqondile ezinembile, izakhiwo ze-granite zivumela ukulawula ukunyakaza okubushelelezi okubalulekile kokubili ekuqondisweni kwe-optical waveguide kanye nokuhlolwa kwe-semiconductor wafer.
Kwa-ZHHIMG, ukuthuthukiswa kwamapulatifomu e-granite asebenza kahle kakhulu kuyinto ebalulekile ekugxilwe kuyo. Ithimba lethu lobunjiniyela likhiqiza amayunithi esisekelo somshini we-granite wedivayisi ye-optical waveguide positioning eyenzelwe ubuchwepheshe be-photonic besizukulwane esilandelayo, kanye nezingxenye ze-granite zamadivayisi enqubo yokukhiqiza ama-semiconductor asekela i-lithography, i-metrology, kanye nokuthuthwa kwe-wafer. Isisekelo ngasinye se-granite sakhiwe nge-granite emnyama ye-premium futhi sicutshungulwa kusetshenziswa amasu okugaya ngokunemba ahlangabezana nezindinganiso ze-ISO eziqinile ezidingekayo embonini ye-semiconductor kanye ne-photonics.
Ukuthembela okwandayo ku-granite kubonisa ukuthambekela kwesikhathi eside: njengoba izidingo zokunemba zikhuphuka, imboni idinga izinto ezisebenza ngokwethembeka ngaphansi kwezimo ezinzima kakhulu. Kusukela ekuhlanganisweni kwe-granite kwezinhlelo zedivayisi yokubeka i-optical waveguide kuya esisekelweni se-granite esiqinile sedivayisi yenqubo yokukhiqiza ye-semiconductor, i-granite izimise njengento ebalulekile yokwenza kube nokuqina, ukunemba, kanye nokuphindaphindeka ezindaweni zokukhiqiza ezisezingeni eliphezulu.
Njengoba ukuxhumana kwe-optical, i-photonics, kanye nobuchwepheshe be-semiconductor kuqhubeka nokuthuthuka, i-granite izodlala indima ebaluleke kakhulu ekuqinisekiseni ukuthi imishini engemuva kwalezi zinto ezintsha isebenza ngokuqina nokunemba okudingekayo ukuze kube nokuncintisana komhlaba wonke. Izinzuzo zayo ezingokwemvelo—ukuqina, ukudlidliza kokudlidliza, ukuhambisana nokushisa, kanye nokuqina kwesikhathi eside—kwenza kube ngenye yezinto zokwakha ezithembeke kakhulu zezixazululo zobunjiniyela besizukulwane esilandelayo.
