Magnesium Fluoride Sputtering Targets and Applications

Magnesium Fluoride (MgF2) Sputtering Targets (Size:1'' ,Thickness:0.250'' , Purity: 99.9%), is an inorganic compound with the formula MgF2. The compound is a white crystalline salt and is transparent over a wide range of wavelengths, with commercial uses in optics that are also used in space telescopes. It occurs naturally as the rare mineral sellaite.
Magnesium Fluoride (MgF2) Sputtering Targets can be used in many various applications. Magnesium Fluoride sputtering targets can be use in semiconductor, chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and physical vapor deposition (PVD) display and optical applications.
We will give you an example which shows how Magnesium Fluoride (MgF2) Sputtering Targets can be used for anti-reflective coating on glass substrate. An anti-reflection nano coating (AR coating) is a dielectric thin-film coating applied to an optical surface in order to reduce the optical reflectivity of that surface in a certain wavelength range. Ideally, an antireflection coating should have a refractive index equal to the square root of the index of the glass substrate. The most common material for a single-layer coating is magnesium fluoride, which has a relatively low index of about 1.38 at visible wavelengths. Magnesium fluoride is a dielectric material with a wide transmission range and a low refractive index. So it can be used as anti-reflective nano coating to reduce the loss of light in lenses or mirrors. There are various methods of preparing AR nano coating on glass substrates. One of the processes that an be used for this application is ion-beam sputtering method.
Ion-beam sputtering (IBS) is a method in which the target is external to the ion source. A source can work without any magnetic field like in a hot filament ionization gauge. Magnesium fluoride is a key compound which can be used in ion beam sputtering applications.

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...
