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:

Cadmium Sulfide Nanopowder and Its Applications

Cadmium sulfide is the inorganic compound with the formula CdS. Cadmium sulfide is a yellow solid. It occurs in nature with two different crystal structures as the rare minerals greenockite and hawleyite. As a compound that is easy to isolate and purify, cadmium sulfide the principal source of cadmium for all commercial applications. Its vivid yellow color led to its adoption as a pigment for the yellow paint "cadmium yellow" in the 18th century. Cadmium Sulfide Nano Powder, CdS (99.9+%, 20 nm)  shows unique physical, chemical and structural properties from the bulk. The melting point, electronic absorption spectra, band gap energy crystal structure, and other properties of cadmium sulfide nanoparticles are affected by size. Thus, cadmium sulfide on the whole is an attractive system for practicing synthetic chemistry for nanocrystals and for understanding the chemistry, growth history of nanomaterials and also for various technical applications. Colloidal dispersions of ...

Carbon Nanotubes Doped with Graphene Nanopowder and Applications

Carbon nanotubes and graphene are different forms of carbon atom based materials. They have different properties and can be used in various applications. But what happens if we use them as a hybrid structure? The excellent mechanical, physical, and chemical properties of low-dimensional carbon materials like graphene and carbon nanotube have enabled them as promising building blocks for three-dimensional nanoarchitectures. In this regard, extensive interests have been attracted to synthesize graphene and carbon nanotube hybrid structures. Earlier works suggested that  Carbon Nanotubes Doped with Graphene Nanopowder (52 wt% Graphene )  is a promising solution for quick energy dissipation, which could enhance interface thermal conductivity of the ‘building blocks’ for future nanoscale mechanical and electrical devices. In the electricity perspective, it is found that ‘CNT pillared-graphene’ system would extend the excellent electrical conductivity of graphene and nanotube to ...
