Thermal coefficient of expansion on SI vs orientation

Hello Harry,
I have looked at this for a long time and could never find data to support
difference in TCE for the different orinetiations. Manufacturers I asked said
either that there is no difference or that they don't know.

coefficient of expansion, I can tell you that there is a difference. {111}
shows isotropic behavior in the plane of the wafer, as I recall. I don't have
the numbers off the top of my head but can tell you that there are handbook
answers regarding these and and similar properties. I do not recall that
resistivity makes a big difference.
