Permalloy (Ni/Fe/Mo/Mn) Sputtering Target Description

The Permalloy (Ni/Fe/Mo/Mn) Sputtering Target is utilized in the sputtering process, a technique for depositing thin films onto a substrate. During sputtering, ions bombard the target material, causing atoms to be ejected and deposited onto the substrate. This process allows for the creation of thin films of Permalloy, which are used to produce magnetic components or enhance the magnetic properties of devices.

Permalloy is a magnetic material comprised of nickel (Ni), iron (Fe), molybdenum (Mo), and manganese (Mn). The specific proportions of these elements are carefully selected to achieve the desired magnetic and electrical characteristics, making Permalloy valuable in various electronic devices and applications.

Permalloy (Ni/Fe/Mo/Mn) Sputtering Target Handling Notes

Indium bonding is recommended for the Permalloy (Ni/Fe/Mo/Mn) Sputtering Target because its properties, such as brittleness and low thermal conductivity, can pose challenges during sputtering. The material’s low thermal conductivity also makes it susceptible to thermal shock, so indium bonding helps to enhance its stability and performance in the sputtering process.

Permalloy (Ni/Fe/Mo/Mn) Sputtering Target Application

The Permalloy (Ni/Fe/Mo/Mn) Sputtering Target is extensively used in the production of magnetic sensors, magnetic recording heads, magnetic shielding, and various other magnetic devices.

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).
