Helium

He

DESCRIPTION: Helium (He) is a colorless, odorless, nontoxic, nonflammable, nonreactive inert gas which acts as a simple asphyxiant by displacing air. Helium is normally compressed and shipped at high pressure.

APPLICATION: Helium is used in purging, annealing, sputtering, leak checking and etching applications. Helium is also used for back-side temperature control to maintain uniform wafer temperature during critical deposition processes.
