Experimental Investigation on Brittle-Ductile Transition in Electroplated Diamond Wire Saw Machining Single Crystal Silicon

Abstract:

Based on reciprocating electroplated diamond wire saw (REDWS) slicing experiments, a study on REDWS machining brittle-ductile transition of single crystal silicon was introduced. The machined surfaces and chips were observed by using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), and some experimental evidences of the change of material removal mode had been obtained. The experimental results indicate there is a close relationship between material removal mode and the ratio r value of ingot feed speed and wire speed, through controlling and adjusting the r value, the material removal mode can be complete brittle, partial ductile and near-ductile removal.
