The exhibition...Continue Reading

Aluminum titanium alloy Aluminum titanium alloy is a kind of metal material with high die-casting yield, high density, high strength and flexibility. The difference between aluminum titanium alloy and titanium aluminum alloy is the proportion of these two elements. The element appears earlier has a larger proportion. Aluminum titanium alloy usually contains 0.50 to 1.20%...Continue Reading

Development of Semiconductor Materials 1 The first generation of semiconductor: represented by Si, Ge semiconductor materials; 2 The second generation of semiconductor: represented by GaAs, InP semiconductor materials; 3 The third generation of semiconductor: represented by several wide-bandgap semiconductor materials such as silicon carbide (SiC), gallium nitride (GaN), zinc oxide (ZnO), diamond, and aluminum nitride...Continue Reading

Well, the question “what is the sputtering target” may seem stupid for insiders. But undoubtedly it is the most basic question in the relevant industry. Search this question in Google, you may find 3,770,000 results, which is quite a HUGE number! Just compare it with 4,510,000 results of searching “sputtering target”. (data may differ) So...Continue Reading

In recent years, with the development of large size flat panel displays, the requirements for the size and density of ITO targets have become higher and higher, and the hot pressing equipment and technology are far from meeting the requirements. Therefore, the production of large-size, high-density ITO targets by sintering has become the focus of...Continue Reading

When it comes to ITO, many people first think of the International Trade Organization. If you think this article is about the International Trade Organization, then I am sorry to tell you that maybe you can stop reading now, because ITO in this passage refers to indium tin oxide. Do you think these three words...Continue Reading

Common target shapes are rectangular planar targets and rotatory targets. From the name we can imagine what they look like, as shown below. The targets of these two shapes have their own advantages and disadvantages. For details, please refer to our previous news Advantages and Disadvantages of Planar target and Rotatory targets. Today, the focus...Continue Reading

In recent years, with the rapid development of coating technology, the demand for sputtering targets has increased rapidly. Then some people who are unfamiliar with sputtering targets may doubt: What are the applications of sputtering targets? The following is a detailed summary by SAM Sputter Targets.   Decorative coating Decorative coating mainly refers to the...Continue Reading

1. Preparation of Cu/In film by magnetron sputtering In order to accurately control the element ratio of Cu/In, CuIn film is prepared by the co-sputtering method. That is, the Cu/In alloy target and the In elemental target are simultaneously sputtered in the same sputtering chamber. The distribution of Cu/In content has a great influence on...Continue Reading
