Introduction Transparent Conductive Oxides (TCOs) are pivotal materials in the field of modern technology, bridging the gap between optical transparency and electrical conductivity. Among these, Aluminum-doped Zinc Oxide (AZO) stands out as a particularly efficient TCO, offering a combination of transparency, conductivity, and affordability that is crucial for a variety of applications ranging from solar...Continue Reading
Introduction Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) has long been a stalwart in the realm of transparent conducting oxides, but recent strides in nanotechnology have ushered in a new era for this versatile material. This article looks at ITO nanotechnology, studying how making tiny structures is changing the way ITO works. This helps it do more things...Continue Reading
Transparent conductive films have many applications, and indium tin oxide films have received great attention in the glass manufacturing industry due to their excellent properties. However, the manufacturing process of the indium tin oxide film requires a higher temperature, which limits its application. In order to reduce this temperature, various “sintering agents” have been taken...Continue Reading
When it comes to the abbreviation “ITO”, it can stand for International Trade Organization, Involuntary Treatment Order, or Information Technology Outsourcing. But in chemistry, “ITO” refers directly to a crucial chemical material — Indium Tin Oxide. What is Indium Tin Oxide in Chemistry? Indium tin oxide (ITO) is a black-gray ceramic material composed of indium 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
Previously, we have introduced Four main molding methods for ITO targets, mainly about their definitions and characteristics. And today I think it necessary to talk about the advantages and disadvantages of each method, which is helpful for you to make choices between them when you want to prepare ITO targets. Hot Pressing The hot pressing...Continue Reading
In recent years, with the development of large size flat panel displays, the requirements for the size and density of ITO targets have become higher and higher, and the hot pressing equipment and technology are far from meeting the requirements. Therefore, the production of large-size, high-density ITO targets by sintering has become the focus of...Continue Reading
When it comes to ITO, many people first think of the International Trade Organization. If you think this article is about the International Trade Organization, then I am sorry to tell you that maybe you can stop reading now, because ITO in this passage refers to indium tin oxide. Do you think these three words...Continue Reading
As is known, the ITO sputtering target is a black-gray ceramic semiconductor formed by a series of production processes after indium oxide and tin oxide powder are mixed in a certain proportion, and then sintered in a high-temperature atmosphere (1600 degrees, oxygen sintering). The ITO film was subjected to magnetron sputtering to oxidize the ITO target...Continue Reading
