Sputtering Target Maintenance In order to avoid short circuit and arc initiation caused by the unclean cavity in the sputtering process, it is necessary to remove the accumulated sputtering materials deposited in the middle and on both sides of the sputtering track in stages. It is also helpful for users to continuously sputtering with the...Continue Reading
Introduction In this article, we will explore the unique properties and applications of pyrolytic boron nitride (PBN). Also known as Chemical Vapor-Deposited Boron Nitride (CVD-BN), PBN is a remarkable material that finds use in various industries. Let’s delve into the characteristics and uses of both PBN and its related form, hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). Pyrolytic Boron Nitride...Continue Reading
Introduction Vacuum evaporation is a process in which a solid material (referred to as the evaporating material) is heated in a high vacuum environment to be deposited on a specific substrate to obtain a film. The vacuum evaporation process is mainly used in microelectronics to make active components, device contacts, and metal interconnections, high precision...Continue Reading
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...Continue Reading
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...Continue Reading

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...Continue Reading
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...Continue Reading
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...Continue Reading
