Knowledge About Element Zinc

ZincZinc (Zn) is a bluish-silver, lustrous metal with atomic number 30. It is a d-block element with a density of 7.14 g/cm³ and a melting point of 419.5 °C. Historically used in alloys like brass, zinc is now indispensable in coatings, electronics, and optical devices due to its conductivity and corrosion resistance. In sputtering, zinc’s properties enable efficient thin-film formation for advanced technologies.

Zinc Sputtering Target
Average rating:  
 3 reviews
by James Li on Zinc Sputtering Target

Our optics team has used SAM’s zinc sputtering targets for anti-reflective coatings on glass substrates. The 99.995% purity option performed reliably, giving us stable films with low contamination. We also appreciated the technical advice about elastomer bonding, which helped extend the target’s life during high-power sputtering runs.

by Dr. Anna Müller on Zinc Sputtering Target

We ordered a 2″ zinc sputtering target (99.99%) for thin-film experiments. The product arrived vacuum-sealed in a carton box, so oxidation was not an issue. Film deposition was smooth and uniform, though we noticed the target surface is softer compared to molybdenum or indium.

by Tilford Denver on Zinc Sputtering Target

Great stuff. Strong. Well crafted. Great looking and nice quality.
