Description

Samarium Sputtering Target Description

SamariumSamarium sputtering target is a silvery target composed of high purity samarium metal. Samarium is a chemical element that originated from Samarskite, the name of the mineral from which it was first isolated. It was first mentioned in 1879 and observed by P.E.L. de Boisbaudran. The isolation was later accomplished and announced by P.E.L. de Boisbaudran. “Sm” is the canonical chemical symbol of samarium. Its atomic number in the periodic table of elements is 62 with a location in Period 6 and Group 3, belonging to the f-block. The relative atomic mass of samarium is 150.36(2) Dalton, the number in the brackets indicating the uncertainty.

Samarium Sputtering Target Application

The samarium sputtering target is used for thin film deposition, decoration, semiconductor, display, LED and photovoltaic devices, functional coating as nicely as other optical information storage space industry, glass coating industry like car glass and architectural glass, optical communication, etc.

Other applications of samarium are:

  • Used as a catalyst for dehydrogenating and dehydrating ethanol
  • 153Sm is used to treat cancer owing to its radioactivity
  • Used as an absorber in nuclear reactors
  • Samarium oxide is used for manufacturing special infrared adsorbing glass for carbon arc-lamp electrodes\
  • Used in doping calcium fluoride crystals employed in optical lasers.

Samarium Sputtering Target Handling Notes

1. No bonding service is presently available for the samarium sputtering target. 2. Samarium target has high chemical activity when exposed to the environment. Oil packaging and clean procedure are required to prevent it from chemical reactions.

I got many from SAM for our chemistry lab and we use them for sputter deposition experiments. They're great for chemical projects and science for the students.
