Antimony Sputtering Targets and Their Applications

Antimony (Sb) has an atomic number of 51, placing it in group 15 of the periodic table along with arsenic and bismuth. It has a shiny metallic lustre and is bluish-white. In general antimony’s chemical properties are very similar to those of arsenic, although it does not have the same reputation as a toxin. Within the earth’s crust its average natural abundance is between 0.2 and 0.5 parts per million.
Antimony has very well fire retardance property and so antimony sputtering targets can be used for fire retardant coatings.
Also for optoelectronic devices like LEDs, laser diodes, photodiodes and solar cells antimony sputtering targets can be used. Antimony can be used with other elements like tin to obtain alloys to use in these areas. You may find an article written about this subject below:
Antimony is increasingly being used in semiconductors as a dopant in n-type silicon wafers for diodes, infrared detectors, and Hall-effect devices.
Antimony and its compounds can be used as sputtering targets by combining with the other elements like indium. For example indium antimony oxide can be used as sputtering agent to obtain transparent conductive film. You may read the paper written about this application from the link given below:

Carbon Nanotubes Specifications and Properties Carbon Nanotubes, simply CNTs, are allotropes of carbon with a round and hollow nanostructure. These barrel shaped carbon molecules have crucial properties, which are significant for nanotechnology, hardware, optics and other different fields of materials science and innovation. The carbon nanotube’s excellent quality as a strong and firm material laid the basis on many applications. Not to mention carbon nanotubes exceptional heat conductivity, electrical and mechanical properties, Carbon Nanotubes are used as additives to diverse auxiliary materials. In terms of rigidity and flexibility Carbon Nanotubes are the stiffest and strongest materials. These quality outcomes from the covalent sp2 bonds framed between the individual carbon molecules. Unlike Graphene , Carbon Nanotubes are either conductive or semiconducting along the tubular hub. Carbon Nanotubes also have absorption, fluorescence properties. Bulk Carbon nanotubes are util...

Hydroxyapatite Nanopowders and Their Applications

Hydroxyapatite, is a naturally occurring mineral form of calcium apatite with the formula Ca 5 (PO 4 ) 3 (OH). Pure hydroxyapatite powder is white. Naturally occurring apatites can, however, also have brown, yellow, or green colorations, comparable to the discolorations of dental fluorosis. Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder/Nanoparticles (50 nm, 99.95+%)  has been widely used as a biocompatible ceramic in many areas of medicine, but mainly for contact with bone tissue, due to its resemblance to mineral bone. In mammals, the skeleton presents a carbonated and partially substituted apatite, based on nanocrystal aggregates, and associated with collagen, building up 3-D structures present in various bone tissue conformations like trabecular or cancellous bone. There has been growing interest in developing bioactive synthetic ceramics that could closely mimic natural apatite characteristics. As mentioned before,  Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder  is the main inorganic constituent of bon...
