Selenium Sputtering Targets and Applications

Selenium is a chemical element with symbol Se and atomic number 34. Selenium is a nonmetal with having similar properties with sulfur, tellurium and arsenic. Selenium sputtering targetsgenerally used for glassmaking and pigments. Being a semiconductor selenium is used in photocells. Selenium was used in electronic applications but it has been mostly replaced with silicon semiconductor devices. In a few types of DC power surge protectors and one type of fluorescent quantum dot selenium is still used.
By physical vapor deposition you may obtain thin films of selenium and this will be a cheap option for you for large-scale device productions. Also selenium thin films are good choices in the applications of photovoltaic and photoconductive devices.
Selenium sputtering target has low melting point, high vapor pressure and these properties make selenium thin films ideal to be used in applications like photocells, switching, memory and X-ray photoconductor.
Currently, there are many research activities related to the development of selenium thin films and their structural and functional properties. By film preparation techniques you may change the electrical and optical properties of selenium thin films.

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. Figure: Single Walled Carbon Nanotube (SWCNT) It ha...
