Crystal Ingot Block is a crystal block manufactured based on high-purity materials, with the core being the formation of a single crystal structure through precision controlled growth processes. This type of crystal block typically has a uniform internal structure and is one of the fundamental materials in high-end semiconductor and optoelectronic fields. As an important form of crystal material, Crystal Ingot Block needs to undergo strict quality testing during the production process to ensure high standard requirements for subsequent processing. It is not only the cornerstone of modern industrial technology development, but also a key raw material for achieving high-performance electronic devices and optical components. Its shape is usually a regular geometric shape, which facilitates subsequent cutting, grinding, and polishing processes.
Sapphire Crystal Ingot Block Features
1. High purity and defect free characteristics:
The core advantage of Sapphire Crystal Ingot Block lies in its extremely high purity and defect free internal structure. By adopting advanced crystal growth techniques such as Czochralski's method or Kyropoulos method, this product can achieve a nearly perfect single crystal structure without bubbles, cracks, or other microscopic defects inside. This high-purity characteristic enables it to exhibit excellent performance in subsequent processing, especially in application scenarios that require high precision and stability.
2. Multiple size specifications:
To meet the needs of different customers, Sapphire Crystal Ingot Block offers a variety of size specifications, including 2-inch, 4-inch, and 6-inch crystal ingots. These size specifications cover most of the current mainstream LED substrate market demand, while also supporting customized services to adapt to specific application scenarios. Whether it's small-scale experiments or large-scale production, Plutosemi can provide suitable solutions.
3. Excellent optical performance:
Sapphire Crystal Ingot Block has excellent optical performance, with extremely high transparency and no color difference. This characteristic is due to strict control during the crystal growth process, ensuring the optical uniformity of the material. In addition, sapphire crystal itself has a wide bandgap characteristic, which can maintain good transparency in the ultraviolet to infrared wavelength range, providing an ideal basic material for the design and manufacturing of optical devices.
4. Mechanical strength and high temperature resistance:
As a hard material, Sapphire Crystal Ingot Block has extremely high mechanical strength and wear resistance, with its hardness second only to diamond. At the same time, sapphire crystals also exhibit excellent high-temperature resistance and can maintain stable physical and chemical properties in extreme environments. This makes it an ideal choice for scenarios that require high thermal loads or strong mechanical stresses.
5. Chemical stability and corrosion resistance:
Sapphire Crystal Ingot Block exhibits strong corrosion resistance to most chemicals and remains stable even in strong acid or alkali environments. This chemical stability not only extends the service life of the material, but also makes it widely applicable in harsh environments.
6. Customizable shape and size:
In addition to standard specifications, Plutosemi also offers customized Sapphire Crystal Ingot Block services in various shapes and sizes. Whether it is a square block or other special shapes, flexible design and production can be carried out according to customer needs. This highly customized service capability further enhances the market competitiveness of the product.
7. Quality stability and global recognition:
Plutosemi's Sapphire Crystal Ingot Block has been certified by multiple mainstream LED substrate processing companies both domestically and internationally, and has become one of its core suppliers. Every product undergoes a strict quality inspection process to ensure that every step from raw materials to finished products meets international standards. This quality stability provides customers with reliable assurance.
Sapphire Crystal Ingot Block Process Flow
1. Raw material preparation:
The first step in producing Sapphire Crystal Ingot Block is to select high-purity aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃) as raw material. These raw materials need to undergo rigorous purification to remove any impurities that may affect the quality of the crystal. Only aluminum oxide with a purity of more than 99.99% can enter the next stage.
2. Crystal growth technology:
The core production link of Sapphire Crystal Ingot Block is crystal growth, usually using the Czochralski method or the Kyropoulos method. In this process, aluminum oxide powder is heated to a molten state and then slowly crystallized through a precisely controlled cooling rate to form a single crystal structure. The entire process needs to be carried out in a dust-free environment to avoid external contamination.
3. Temperature and environmental control:
The stability of temperature and environment is crucial during the crystal growth process. Plutosemi uses advanced temperature control systems and inert gas protection devices to ensure that the molten liquid is under constant temperature and pressure conditions. This fine control can effectively prevent bubbles or cracks from appearing inside the crystal.
4. Crystal annealing:
In order to eliminate the residual stress inside the crystal, the Sapphire Crystal Ingot Block needs to be annealed after the growth is completed. This process releases the thermal stress inside the crystal by gradually reducing the temperature, thereby improving the overall mechanical properties of the material.
5. Cutting and shaping:
After the crystal growth is completed, the original crystal ingot will be cut and shaped according to customer needs. Plutosemi is equipped with high-precision cutting equipment that can process the crystal ingot into blocks or sheets of various specifications while ensuring a smooth and flawless surface.
6. Quality inspection:
Each Sapphire Crystal Ingot Block needs to undergo multiple quality inspections before leaving the factory, including optical performance tests, mechanical strength tests, and chemical stability assessments. Only products that fully meet the standards will be delivered to customers.
7. Packaging and transportation:
Finally, the finished product will be properly packaged to prevent damage during transportation. Plutosemi uses professional shock-proof and moisture-proof packaging solutions to ensure that the product arrives safely in the hands of customers.

Packaging and Transportation
The packaging should be able to withstand the impact, vibration, stacking and extrusion that may be encountered during transportation, while also it has to easy to load, unload and handle.
We use professional wafer box packaging. The wafer box is protected by a double layer bag, the inside is a PE bag that can be dust-proof, and the outside is a aluminum foil bag that can be isolated from the air. The two-layer bags are vacuum-packed.
We will choose carton models according to different sizes of products. And between the product and the carton filled with shock-proof EPE foam, play a comprehensive protection.
Finally choose air transport to reach the customer's hands. This allows customers in any country and region to receive the product in the fastest time.
We comply with the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) rules to ensure that the products transported are free of harmful substances and will not cause environmental pollution and explosion and other possible hazards.
