Application of Tantalum and Molybdenum in Mobile Phones

Metal elements have many applications in mobile phones. And today we tend to mention two important ones–molybdenum and titanium. The main use of tantalum materials in electronic products comes in the creation of the tantalum capacitor; and the main use of molybdenum in mobile phones mainly related to the liquid crystal display coating: using magnetron...

An Overview of Aluminum Sputtering Target

An Overview of Aluminum Sputtering Target

You may be familiar with aluminum but unfamiliar with aluminum sputter targets. But to some extent, they are the same, consisting of atom Al. In a word, the aluminum sputtering target can be considered a product after a series of processes from high-purity aluminum. Aluminum target is a type of sputtering material used mounted on a vacuum...

Sputtering Targets Used in Solar Industry

It is known to us that by applying different sputtering targets, we can obtain solar transparent electrodes of different kinds and characteristics can be obtained. However, not all targets can be applied to solar cells. The following is a summary of three main sputtering targets used in the solar industry. ITO targets Indium tin oxide...

Everything You Need to Know About ITO Sputtering Target

Definition of ITO Sputtering Target The full name of ITO is indium tin oxide, a composition of indium, tin, and oxygen with different proportions. The substance of ITO and ITO sputtering target is the same, the latter of which is actually a black-gray ceramic semiconductor formed by mixing indium oxide and tin oxide powder in...

Optical Coating: What is Anti-Reflective Coating?

Why do you need anti-reflection coating? Anti-reflective coating is added to lenses to reduce glare caused by light hitting the back of the lenses, which is good for one’s vision. When light passes through the front and back surfaces of the lens, it not only produces refraction but also produces reflection. This kind of reflected...

Metal Encyclopedia: Seventeen Rare Earth Elements Introduction

Rare-earth element is a general term for 17 elements of lanthanides as well as scandium and yttrium in the chemical periodic table. Scandium and yttrium are included in rare earth element because they are often symbiotic with lanthanide elements in mineral deposits, and thus have similar chemical properties. Rare earth materials are important for many...
