Trimethyl Borate (TMB)
High-purity boron compound for advanced BPSG deposition.
Enables clean doping and dielectric layering in wafer processing and MEMS production.
Versatile Boron Precursor for Glass Formation and Doping Applications
Trimethyl Borate (TMB) is a high-purity boron compound used as a key dopant source in the formation of boro-phospho-silicate glass (BPSG) layers via chemical vapor deposition (CVD). These boron-enriched dielectric layers improve flow properties and stress control in semiconductor devices and are essential for modern ICs, MEMS, and discrete components.
Due to its high volatility, clean decomposition, and low impurity levels, TMB is widely used in wafer fabrication processes requiring precise and uniform boron incorporation.
