For Semiconductor Applications Involving High Intensity UV Radiation
Product Description
DuPont™ Kalrez® 8705 perfluoroelastomer parts are primarily designed for seal locations in the direct path of high energy ultraviolet (UV) radiation emitted from a conventional light source or from plasma. They also provide excellent resistance to high concentrations of damaging oxygen free radicals, and outstanding sealing functionality in high temperature vacuum applications. Their extremely low sticking force makes them ideal for sealing quartz surfaces like quartz windows in UV cure chambers and quartz tubes in photoresist strip equipment, without leaving undesirable residues. A maximum application temperature of 310°C is suggested. Ultrapure cleaning and packaging is standard for all Kalrez® 8705 parts.

Major 300mm Fab Chooses Kalrez® 8705 for its Great Value
A DuPont™ Kalrez® 8705 custom shape seal exhibited an outstanding balance of cost and performance in a Quartz Window Seal location of a LAM® Sola® xT ultraviolet thermal processing system. After 9 months of repeated, long (6-8 minutes) exposures to high intensity UV rays emitted while curing ultra-low k dielectric films, the seal was able to withstand the destructive UV radiation at very high temperatures (350-400oC on the pedestal) without experiencing any significant degradation or compression set. At the same time, the seal performed exceptionally well during the high temperature (150-200oC), long duration (8-10 minutes) ozone cleaning cycles of the UV cure chamber without showing signs of sticking or weight loss.
