Application
The Tin single crystal disc, with its specified dimensions and precise (110) orientation, is crafted for advanced research and industrial applications where high purity and specific crystallographic alignment are crucial. This disc serves as a fundamental component for studies in material science and solid-state physics, facilitating exploration into the intrinsic properties of tin and its behavior under varied conditions. Its precisely controlled orientation and dimensions ensure consistency and reliability in experiments and applications such as semiconductor development and surface science investigations.
