Abstract:

In order to study the effect of polishing parameters on the surface quality and material removal of single crystal germanium flakes, single crystal diamond suspension polishing liquid is used to polish the single crystal germanium flakes. The optimal process parameter combination is determined, and the degree and trend of influence of each polishing parameter on the polishing quality is analyzed by orthogonal experiment. Experimental results show that the drop of Ra is 0.848~0.998 μm in 16 experiments. The surface quality of single crystal germanium flakes can be greatly improved if a small particle size single crystal diamond suspension polishing liquid is utilized. The primary and secondary order (primary→secondary) of the influence degree of each parameter on the surface roughness are abrasive grain size, polishing time, loading pressure, spindle speed of polishing head. The optimal parameter combination is shown as: abrasive grain size 0.25 μm; spindle speed of polishing head 70 rpm; loading pressure 8 kg; polishing time 90 min. The effect of abrasive grain size on the surface roughness of the workpiece satisfies the Preston equation. The effect of loading pressure on the surface roughness of the workpiece is consistent with the size effect exhibited by the single crystal germanium (111) crystal plane, and the effects of polishing parameters on the material removal of the workpiece meet the Seok material removal rate model.
