1. Introduction to Sputtering Target Selection The target quality is rather significant for the coating process, and targets’ features are affected by a variety of parameters like purity, density, porosity, grain sizes, shapes, etc. The better the target quality is, the better performance we have, and the firmer the coating layers are. Here we will...Continue Reading
Powder metallurgy is an important metal-forming procedure used in manufacturing essential materials like cutting tools, bearing parts, magnets, etc. Contributing to the automation of the industrial sector, powder metallurgy has continued to attract manufacturers who are looking to lower the cost of manufacturing through forging and machining. This post walks you through the meaning of...Continue Reading
Metal casting is an industrial manufacturing process that is more than 5,000 years old. To date, it continues to play a critical role in the production of essential manufacturing components for the production of automobiles, aircraft, ships, heavy equipment, machining tools, and even plant machinery. In this post, you’ll discover what metal casting is, the...Continue Reading
In order to protect some deposited materials from reacting with air or water vapor, they are usually immersed in low-viscosity (hydrocarbon) mineral oil during storage and shipment. Before installing these composition materials shipped in oil into the vacuum system, we must use solvents to remove these oils. The choice of solvents is based on the premise...Continue Reading
Magnetron sputtering, a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process, is the main thin film deposition method for manufacturing semiconductor, disk drive, CD and optical devices. The following are common problems in magnetron sputtering. We have listed possible causes and related solutions for your information. Here is a quick look that may save your time. Problem 1: The...Continue Reading
Resistive touch screen is commonly called “soft screen”, which is mostly used in Windows Mobile system mobile phones; capacitive touch screen is commonly called “hard screen”, such as iPhone and G1 machines use this kind of screen quality. Indium tin oxide sputtering target is an important material for touch screens. For more information, please visit https://www.sputtertargets.net/. Resistive...Continue Reading
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...Continue Reading
The titanium sputtering target and the aluminum sputtering target are both the sputtering materials for film coating. The titanium film is a strong, lightweight coating material that is used in many film coating applications. However, because of the price, it is often compared to aluminum film, which is also a very strong film material but...Continue Reading
Why the titanium target price is high? Titanium target price is not cheap mainly due to the high price of its raw material titanium. Titanium sputtering target is mainly used for various film coatings, such as tool coating, optics coating, solar coating, and the like. However, its high price is a big obstacle for its...Continue Reading
