Effect of Sputtering Target Purity on Large-Area Coating Production

Effect of Sputtering Target Purity on Large-Area Coating Production The requirement of the target quality for sputter coating is higher than that of the traditional materials industry. When the substrate enters the high vacuum coating chamber, if the sputtering target is not pure enough, under the action of the electric field and the magnetic field,...

Using Scandium Aluminum Sputtering Target to Prepare ScAlN Film

Scandium nitride (ScN) is a metal nitride semiconductor. The crystal structure of ScN is generally rock salt and non-polar. However, the first principle calculation indicates that ScN may also have a wurtzite structure and can be made into Sc-IIIA-Nitride. The IIIA nitride refers to AlN, GaN, and InN, and the structure of the nitride is...
