ST6584 Molybdenum Sodium Rotary Target (MoNa Rotary Target)

Overview of Molybdenum Sodium Rotary Target (MoNa Rotary Target)

The MoNa Rotary Target is a dual-element sputtering solution that integrates the high melting point, mechanical strength, and chemical stability of molybdenum with the lightweight and highly mobile ionic characteristics of sodium. This target features a refined, uniform microstructure achieved through advanced alloying and sintering techniques, ensuring stable sputtering performance and consistent film deposition. Molybdenum enhances the structural integrity and oxidation resistance at elevated temperatures, while sodium improves reactivity and aids in the incorporation of alkali elements into the films. This combination results in a material with customized electrical and thermal properties, moderate density, and dependable performance in vacuum conditions. The MoNa Rotary Target is compatible with both DC and RF sputtering systems and exhibits good thermal expansion compatibility with a range of substrate materials, making it versatile for complex material systems.
