Indium Oxide Sputtering Targets and Applications

Indium(III) oxide which has the chemical formula of In2O3 is a chemical compound which consist of oxygen and indium.
Indium Oxide (In2O3) Sputtering Targets (Size:1'' ,Thickness:0.125'' , Purity: 99.99%) belong among transparent conducting oxides are widely used in various applications thanks to their low resistivity, high optical transparency and wide band gap. These applications include using in solar applications, the transparent electrodes in various optoelectronic devices, the barrier layers in tunnel junctions, the active layers of gas sensors or the material for ultraviolet lasers. Indium oxide thin films have a good adherence to the substrate surface and high chemical inertness.
Indium oxide thin films play a significant role in recent optical technologies. Displays of various types, photovoltaic systems, and opto-electronic devices use these films as transparent signal electrodes. They are used as heating surfaces and active control layers. Although oxides of other metals like tin, indium, zinc, cadmium, titanium show the similar properties, indium oxide coatings are the most used in this technology.

Carbon Nanotube Threads

Since its discovery, carbon nanotube (CNT) has attracted many interests in different technology fields due to its extraordinary properties. Properties such as, high strength, great electrical and thermal conductivity, light weight and flexibility made CNT one of the best materials for wide range of applications. However, from its name it can be understood that CNT is a nanoscale material which is very small to be applied for the production of daily products. Researchers all around the world are working on finding methods and techniques which could produce new materials with the extraordinary properties of CNT. Image retrieved from:  https://worldindustrialreporter.com/strong-light-flexible-carbon-nanotubes-threads-with-ultrahigh-conductivity/ One of these research is focusing on the production of high strength threads that can be used in the manufacturing of fabrics, cables and ropes. An international group of scientists were able to produce a flexible conductive thread th...

Multi Walled Carbon Nanotube Dispersions

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs)  have attracted enormous attention in recent years due to its unique physical, electronic, optical and potential applications in materials science and nanotechnology. The van der Waals interaction between tubes, however, makes CNTs aggregate in most organic solvents and aqueous solutions, which is the major limitation of their practical applications.Various approaches have been studied to alter the CNT surface to promote the dispersion of individual nanotubes and prevent their reaggregation. On the basis of this widely accepted viewpoint, numerous techniques such as covalent bonding, surfactant coating and polymer wrapping have been developed for surface modification or sidewall functionalization.These methods, however, are complicated, time-consuming and cause permanent damage to the CNT structure and properties of the surface, which produces residues of the dispersion agent for the final product. Figure: Single Walled Carbon Nanotube (SWCNT) It ha...
