Abstract

The sapphire wafers for blue light emitting devices were manufactured by the implementation of the surface machining technology based on micro-tribology. This process has been performed by chemical and mechanical polishing process. The sapphire crystalline wafers were characterized by double crystal<br/> X-ray diffraction. The sample quality of sapphire crystalline wafer at surfaces has a full width at half maximum of 89 arcsec. The surfaces of sapphire wafer were mechanically affected by residual stress during the polishing process. The wave pattern of optical interference of sapphire wafer implies higher abrasion rate in the edge of the wafer than its center from the Newton's ring.<br/>
