What is Silica Amorphous?

Amorphous Silica is an inorganic material (SiO2) occur as a bi-product during metallurgical and other processes of quartz at a high temperature approximately 1700° C. It has high dielectric strength and mechanical resistance. This makes it a commonly used material in semiconductor circuits to divide different conducting regions. It has also become an important material in chromatography and microelectronics.

Amorphous silica does not have crystalline structure due to the absence of definitive lines in diffraction measurement and no discrete reflections are seen whereas discrete reflections with orderly patterns can be seen in crystalline silica.
