Iron Oxide Sputtering Targets and Applications

Iron oxide is a chemical compound with chemical formula of Fe3O4. Iron Oxide (Fe3o4) Sputtering Targets (Size:1'',Thickness:0.125'' , Purity: 99.9%) occurs in nature as the mineral magnetite. Iron oxides are interesting due to their catalytic, magnetic, and semiconducting properties, and because they are produced during corrosion. Their applications include, for example, usage as pigments, catalysts in styrene synthesis, and as a material for high-density magnetic storage.
Thin films of iron oxide sputtering targets can be obtained by different deposition methods and used for various purposes.
Due to the predicted half-metallic nature and high polarization, iron oxide thin films have drawn a great deal of interest as promising candidates for application in tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) devices. Single crystalline thin films have been epitaxially grown on MgO substrates, due to the good lattice match between the oxides. Polycrystalline iron oxide thin films have also been deposited on Si substrates to study the properties. The deposition methods used to date include plasma assisted molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE), pulsed laser deposition (PLD) from oxide targets, and reactive sputter deposition from an Fe target with Ar–O2 mixture gas flow.

Graphene Tyres and Graphene Brake Pads

Could Graphene Use Create A Distruptive Technology In Tyre Sector? Almost every day, we see new applications emerging from graphene. The fact is certain; graphene is a disruptive technology that holds huge potential for commercialization. Graphene has abilities to open new markets and even replace existing materials or material technologies. A brand new application of graphene came out which is producing graphene tyres and brake pads. https://www.canadacarbon.com/brake-linings-gasket... In 2016 GraphChina (Graphene Innovation Conference); Sentury and Huagao launched their first electrostatic conducting graphene tyre on September 22nd. 2-3 weeks before the conference Sentury and Huagao officially announced their cooperation on the product. During the press conference, Sentury’s engineers (which is branded with the Landsail moniker), revealed that the latest test data shows their graphene-enhanced tyre offers; 1.8 meters shorter stopping distances (6 % improvement on conv...

Characterization and potential uses of Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder/Nanoparticle

   Hydroxylapatite , also referred to as hydroxyapatite (HA), is a calcium apatite in its naturally occurring mineral form with the formula Ca5(PO4)3(OH). A fluorapatite or chlorapatite may be produced if the OH−ion is replaced by fluoride, chloride or carbonate. Hydroxylapatite crystallizes in the hexagonal crystal pattern. Pure hydroxylapatite powder is of white color. However, naturally occurring apatites can also have brown, yellow, or green hue, resembling the coloration of dental fluorosis. Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder/Nanoparticle (HApN) , nanodots or nanocrystals are spherical or faceted high surface area oxide magnetic nanostructured particles. Nanoscale Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder/Nanoparticle (HApN) are normally 20-80 nanometers (nm) with specific surface area (SSA) in the 15 - 50 m2/g range but sometimes available with an average particle size of 100 nm range with a specific surface area of approximately 5 - 10 m2/g. Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder/Nanoparticle (HApN...
