Application
The Copper single crystal disc serves as a fundamental component in various scientific and industrial applications due to its precise structure and properties. This disc, with dimensions of 10mm in diameter and 1-3mm in thickness, and oriented in the (100) direction, provides a highly controlled surface for experiments and processes that require uniformity and precision. Its single crystal nature ensures consistent material characteristics across the disc, making it ideal for research in crystallography, materials science, and electronics. The disc's utilization spans areas where efficient conductivity and predictable behavior under experimental conditions are essential, thus supporting advancements in technology and scientific understanding.
