Sulfur Hexafluoride

Sulfur Hexafluoride is a colorless, non-flammable gas primarily used in semiconductor manufacturing. Sulfur hexafluoride is a fluorine source for high density plasma etching without generating carbon by-products. SF6 can be used for etching metal silicides (specially tungsten etchback), nitrides and oxides versus their metal substrates. Additional uses include as an insulating agent in high voltage electrical transformers, switches or systems, leak detection and as a replacement gas in eye surgery.

Xenon

Xenon isa a non-toxic, colorless and odorless gas. It is a member of the zero-valence elements that are called nobel or inert gases. It is inert to most common chemical reactions. Xenon is primarily used in applications such as excimer laser systems, lighting, ion (plasma) drive engines, and medical MRI systems.
