ST1006 Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) Sputtering Target, Y2O3/ZrO2

Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) Sputtering Target Description

Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) Sputtering Target is a material used in the sputtering deposition process. Sputtering is a widely used technique in thin film deposition, where atoms or ions are ejected from a solid target material and deposited onto a substrate to form a thin film.

YSZ is a solid solution of zirconia and yttria, where the yttria acts as a stabilizer for the zirconia crystal structure. The addition of yttria stabilizes the high-temperature cubic phase of zirconia at room temperature, allowing it to retain its desirable properties. YSZ is known for its high ionic conductivity, thermal stability, and resistance to chemical corrosion. These properties make it suitable for applications such as solid oxide fuel cells, electrolyte membranes, oxygen sensors, and protective coatings.
