Stanford Advanced Materials (SAM) Corporation is a global supplier of various sputtering targets such as metals, alloys, oxides, ceramic materials. We update every week about news and knowledge of sputtering targets and evaporation materials. Here are the blogs we published previously.

Study on the Influence of Sputtering Targets on Sputter Coatings

Study on the Influence of Sputtering Targets on Sputter Coatings

AlxCr1-xN coatings have excellent mechanical properties and oxidation resistance and are therefore of high application value in a variety of industrial applications. In recent years, the effects of various deposition parameters (such as partial pressure, gas mixture or temperature) on the sputtering process have been studied, but there has been little research on the influence...

Effect of Impurity Size on Superconducting Material

Effect of Impurity Size on Superconducting Materials

Researchers at North Carolina State University have been working hard to find the relationship between impurities and superconducting materials. Their research focuses on how the size of these impurities affects superconducting materials, and whether the effects are beneficial or harmful. A superconducting material is a material that can sustain electricity without losing any energy due...

What Is The Anelva Target_

Do You Know What The Anelva Target Is?

Anelva target, I believe, is a very unfamiliar phrase for most people. And maybe that’s the reason why you are here, reading this article. Actually, with a simple explanation–Anelva target is also known as the target used in the semiconductor industry, you will immediately get its meaning. In today’s semiconductor manufacturing processes, sputtering targets are...

Effect of Silver Additives on the Conductivity of Indium Tin Oxide Sputtered Films

Effect of Silver Additives on the Conductivity of Indium Tin Oxide Sputtered Films

Transparent conductive films have many applications, and indium tin oxide films have received great attention in the glass manufacturing industry due to their excellent properties. However, the manufacturing process of the indium tin oxide film requires a higher temperature, which limits its application. In order to reduce this temperature, various “sintering agents” have been taken...

PVD VS. CVD

Table Comparison: Physical Vapor Deposition Vs. Chemical Vapor Deposition

Physical vapor deposition (PVD) and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) are considered to be the most attractive surface coating technologies and have a wide range of applications in various industries. Let us compare these two methods in detail. Physical Vapor Deposition Chemical Vapor Deposition Definition PVD is a series of vacuum deposition methods that produce films...

Platinum vs. Gold Ring

Platinum vs. Gold: Which Material Is Better for Rings?

As for the two most commonly used metals for engagement and wedding rings, platinum and gold, most people distinguish them by their different colors-platinum is naturally white, and gold is naturally yellow. However, rings made of white gold (composed of gold, alloys, and a rhodium plating) have a similar white color to platinum rings. Since...

An Overview of Tantalum Element

An Overview of Tantalum Element

Tantalum Overview The texture of the tantalum is very hard and the hardness can reach 6-6.5. Its melting point is as high as 2996 °C, only after carbon, tungsten, rhenium, and osmium. Tantalum is malleable and can be drawn into a thin foil. Its coefficient of thermal expansion is very small, and it only expands by 6.6 parts...

Sputter Coating Technologies Direct Current Sputtering

Sputter Coating Technologies: Direct Current Sputtering (DC Sputtering)

We have previously made a brief introduction of Five Sputter Coating Technologies, including unbalanced magnetron sputtering, radio frequency sputtering (RF sputtering), direct current magnetron sputtering (DC sputtering), mid-frequency alternating current magnetron sputtering (AC sputtering), and reactive magnetron sputtering. In this article, we are going to talk about direct current (DC) sputtering in detail. To begin...
