American Elements' production emphasizes ultra high
purity elemental and compound materials produced in the form of single crystal, polycrystalline pieces, boule, crackle and shaped charge and rod. We are recognized specialists in custom grown single and polycrystalline materials of any of the III-V and II-VI compounds when special orientations, purities or dopants are required. Unlike many other producers, our facilities are also set up to produce small or pilot scale lots cost effectively. All production materials are analyzed and certified prior to shipping. American Elements grows certified single phase structures for use in semiconductor, Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) and Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) processes including Thermal and Electron Beam (E-Beam) Evaporation, Low Temperature Organic Evaporation, Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD), Metallic-Organic and Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD) for use in applications including fuel cells and solar energy. Starting metallic compounds include ultra high purity metallic oxides and fluorides. See also Nanoparticles and Nanotechnology and deposition materials for other ionic delivery systems.
A partial list of such products is set forth below. Besides these standard products, American Elements will also custom synthesis crystalline structures to meet customer proprietary requirements.
American Elements produces custom layer substrates for both commercial and research applications and can deposit layers on selected substrates. For example, we can produce many custom variations of metallic nitride layers on various aluminum oxide composition substrates. We provide metallization for these materials and our other products.
