Lithium Cobalt Oxide Sputtering Targets and Applications


Lithium Cobalt Oxide (LiCoO2) Sputtering Targets (Size:2'' ,Thickness:0.125'' , Purity: 99.9%), sometimes called lithium cobaltate or lithium cobaltite, is a chemical compound with formula LiCoO2. Lithium cobalt oxide is a dark blue or bluish-gray crystalline solid, and is commonly used in the positive electrodes of lithium-ion batteries.
Lithium ion batteries have found utility in various applications, including automobiles, such as hybrid and electric vehicles. The emergence of lithium (Li) ion batteries can be attributed to several of its bulk properties, including high power density, low self-discharge rate and favorable charge-discharge cycle performance. The bulk properties affect the battery capacity and use life. Key variables which can affect the performance of the bulk properties include Li-ion diffusivity. As a result, Li-ion battery development has primarily focused on Li-containing materials having suitable Li-ion diffusivity. One of the material of interest is lithium cobalt oxide. Lithium Cobalt Oxide (LiCoO2) Sputtering Targets has been determined to exhibit superior Li-ion diffusivity. As a result, lithium cobalt oxide has emerged as the preferred precursor material for new lithium bulk battery applications within the electronics industry.
The suitability of lithium cobalt oxide for use in battery technology also extends to thin film lithium battery applications. The required thin film lithium can be generally deposited by conventional sputtering target techniques, whereby Lithium Cobalt Oxide (LiCoO2) Sputtering Targets assembly, defined as the lithium cobalt oxide sputtering target bonded to a backing plate, can be used to deposit the required thin film lithium. With regards to sputtering targets to produce Li thin films, a D.C. (direct current) magnetron sputter system can be employed.

Improving Dialysis Process with Graphene

Researchers from Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Departments of MIT recently showed that graphene is a powerful material candidate for use in the dialysis systems (such as hemodialysis machines in medical institutes for filtering human blood). In order to prepare graphene as a dialysis material, researchers used a procedure opposite to the general treatments that nanotechnology people use. Dialysis is a process of filtering different solutions such as human blood by a membrane in order to remove waste molecules, drugs, chemical residues from the solution. In some cases, the process can be used for purification of chemicals or isolation of different molecules for medical diagnosis. It is an essential process for scientists especially in the medical operations.

Graphene Oxide Dispersion

Graphene oxide refers to a mono-atomic layer material obtained when graphite crystals are oxidized. This is one of the graphene materials that are commercially available because of  its ability to dissolve in water  which makes the oxidation process suitable. In this article, we will talk about the  synthesis, the properties and some of the applications of graphene oxide dispersion in water . Seven Properties of Graphene Oxide Dispersion The properties of a material are defined through its structure, however, this material is very peculiar, since there is no unambiguous model of this material. Graphene Oxide dispersion offers remarkable physical, chemical and mechanical properties that give the opportunity to new applications. Graphene Oxide is amorphous , but, in general, graphene oxide can be described as a two-dimensional sheet containing honeycomb carbon atoms with functional groups of hydroxide and oxygen, unlike the graphene model that seeks to completely re...
