Iron Aluminum Sputtering Target Description

The Iron Aluminum Sputtering Target from TFM is an alloy material composed of iron (Fe) and aluminum (Al). This high-quality sputtering material is designed for applications that require the combined properties of these two elements.

ironIron, also called ferrum, is a chemical element originated from the Anglo-Saxon name iren (ferrum in Latin). It was early used before 5000 BC. “Fe” is the canonical chemical symbol of iron. Its atomic number in the periodic table of elements is 26 with location at Period 4 and Group 8, belonging to the d-block. The relative atomic mass of iron is 55.845(2) Dalton, the number in the brackets indicating the uncertainty.

Aluminum

Aluminium, also known as aluminum, is a chemical element whose name originates from the Latin word for alum, ‘alumen,’ meaning bitter salt. It was first mentioned and observed by H.C. Ørsted in 1825, who also accomplished its isolation. Represented by the symbol “Al,” aluminium has an atomic number of 13 and is located in Period 3, Group 13 of the p-block in the periodic table. Its relative atomic mass is 26.9815386(8) Daltons, with the number in brackets indicating the measurement uncertainty.

FAQ

It’s the source material (in solid form) used in sputter deposition to eject atoms or molecules that then form a thin film on a substrate.

Targets can be pure metals (e.g., gold, copper, aluminum), ceramics (e.g., Al₂O₃, SiO₂, TiO₂), alloys, or composites—chosen based on the film’s desired properties.

 

They are produced by processes such as melting/casting for metals or sintering (often with hot isostatic pressing) for ceramics and composite targets to ensure high density and purity.

 

In a vacuum chamber, a plasma (typically argon) bombards the target, ejecting atoms that travel and condense on a substrate, forming a thin film.

 

Key factors include the target’s purity, density, grain structure, and the sputtering yield (i.e. how many atoms are ejected per incident ion), as well as operating conditions like power density and gas pressure.

 

Operators monitor target erosion (often by measuring the depth of the eroded “race track”) or track total energy delivered (kilowatt-hours) until it reaches a threshold that can compromise film quality.

 

Fragile materials (such as many ceramics or certain oxides) and precious metals often require a backing plate to improve cooling, mechanical stability, and to allow thinner targets that reduce material costs.

 

DC sputtering is used for conductive targets, while RF sputtering is necessary for insulating targets (like many oxides) because it prevents charge buildup on the target’s surface.

 

In reactive sputtering, a reactive gas (e.g., oxygen or nitrogen) is introduced to form compound films on the substrate, but it may also “poison” the target surface if not carefully controlled.

 

Many manufacturers prefer to control raw material quality by sourcing their own powders; using external powders can risk impurities and inconsistent target properties.

 

Targets should be stored in clean, dry conditions (often in original packaging or re-wrapped in protective materials) and handled with gloves to avoid contamination, ensuring optimal performance during deposition.

Deposition rate depends on factors such as target material and composition, power density, working gas pressure, substrate distance, and the configuration of the sputtering system (e.g., magnetron design).
