Alloy Sputtering Targets
What Are Alloy Sputtering Targets?
An Alloy Sputtering Target is a material composed of two or more metal elements, designed for use in physical vapor deposition (PVD) and sputtering processes. These targets are bombarded with high-energy ions, causing atoms to be ejected and deposited as a thin film onto a substrate.
Unlike pure metal targets, alloy targets provide unique properties that enhance film characteristics such as electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance, hardness, and optical reflectivity. This makes them ideal for a wide range of functional and decorative coatings.
Alloy Sputtering Targets offer several advantages over single-element Metal Targets:
- Customizable Composition – Precisely engineered material properties for specific applications.
- Enhanced Performance – Improved film adhesion, conductivity, and wear resistance.
- Uniform Thin Films – Stable deposition rates for consistent coating quality.
- Increased Durability – Reduced defects and longer operational life in sputtering systems.
