Tin Sputtering Targets and Applications

Tin is a chemical element with the symbol Sn and atomic number 50. Tin is a silvery white, malleable metal at room temperature.
Tin sputtering target is one of the most used elements that are used for coating. For example tin-plated steel containers are widely used for food preservation. Tin is a suitable material to obtain alloys with other metals and these alloys are used in many ways such as solder for joining pipes or electric circuits, pewter, bell metal, babbit metal and dental amalgams. For superconducting magnets tin and niobium alloy can be used.
Tin sputtering targets are generally used for the coatings on copper. At low temperature tin sputtering targets are bonded to copper as solder.
Tin layers which can be obtained by sputtering targets also possible to be oxidized. Tin has two oxidation states as Sn2+ and Sn4+ and by N2 pressure Sn can be oxidized and form SnO and SnO2. These compounds can be used in semiconductors based transistors.

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.
