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.

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...

Rundown about Silicon Oxide Wafer

The main insulating material used in micro-technology is Silicon Dioxide, which in chemical symbols is written as SiO2. In semiconductor technology, SiO2 thin film layers are mainly used as dielectric material film in transistors, capacitors (DRAM) or flash-memories. Silicon Oxide Wafers are produced using crystallization, solid state and other ultra-high purification processes such as sublimation. This process forms a cylindrical ingot, which is then sliced and polished to form wafers. Thermal oxide is a kind of "grown" oxide layer, compared to CVD deposited oxide layer, it has a higher uniformity, and higher dielectric strength, it is an excellent dielectric layer as an insulator . In most silicon- based devices, thermal oxide layer play an important role to pacify the silicon surface to act as doping barriers and as surface dielectrics. The simplest way to produce an insulating silicon oxide layers (SiO2) on silicon wafers is to oxidize silicon with oxygen, which ...
