Beryllium Wafer

Description of Beryllium Wafer

Beryllium wafers are discs of high-purity beryllium. Like most beryllium, they are silvery-white and shiny. For beryllium wafers, we employ a vacuum-melted beryllium ingot, which undergoes multi-directional forging to enhance the ingot's pores and impurities. This is followed by hot rolling into thin sheets, which are later cut to the desired dimensions using either a lathe or laser. The thickness and diameter of the wafers range from 0.1 mm to 2 mm and 25 mm to 300 mm, respectively. Typical tolerances of the beryllium wafers are ±0.02 mm. Greater precision is also offered, if necessary.

Each Beryllium wafer is individually processed through a 2-hour anneal in a vacuum furnace set to 650°C, which removes processing stress. Following,  beryllium wafers are ultrasonically cleaned in pure water and dried with a lint-free cloth. The resultant surface is mirror-like, and the roughness (Ra) is no more than 0.05 μm. The beryllium wafers are stored individually in anti-static bags that are sealed in a vacuum. The sealed bags are then cushioned with foam to secure the wafers from shocks during transport.

Features of Beryllium Wafer

Beryllium Wafer has a series of advantages such as high strength, good performance stability, high ray transmittance level, high elastic modulus, high reuse rate, excellent thermal conductivity, and low atomic coefficient, which makes it the first choice for window materials in imaging equipment. In practice, the purity and durability of Beryllium Wafers are very high.

Applications of Beryllium Wafer

1. Beryllium Wafer is most commonly used in the medical industry, such as imaging equipment, diagnostic and disease analysis equipment, and laser equipment, which provide a focusing window for X-ray tubes and detectors in high-resolution medical radiography

2. Aerospace and national defense military field, Beryllium Wafer can enhance the military helicopter monitoring and targeting system, but also as a "thermal insulation sheath", absorbing a lot of heat and quickly excited, preventing the temperature rise, to ensure the flight safety of aircraft

3. Beryllium Wafer is often used in atomic device structures or nuclear reactor equipment; Beryllium Wafer can be used to ensure the safety of fissile material and neutron reducers

4. Infrastructure and components in the field of communications and high-frequency speaker drivers in acoustic applications
