Cobalt Iron Boron Sputtering Targets and Applications

Cobalt, iron and boron get together to form an alloy and this alloy can be used as a sputtering target. Let’s look at the applications that cobalt, iron and boron alloy can be used. Boron alloy with transition metals like cobalt iron boron have many attractive properties, including high melting point and hardness, good wear and corrosion resistance, excellent electrical conductivity, and resistance to attack by molten metals. There therefore appears to be significant scope for enhancing surface properties of metals and ceramics by applying coatings constituted from these materials. Also, there are many applications which require a high ultimate tensile strength, high thermal stability and ease of fabricability. All these properties can be obtained by using alloys. For example, metal ribbons used in razor blade applications usually undergo a heat treatment of about 370° C for about 30 min to bond an applied coating of polytetrafluoroethylene to the metal. Likewise, metal strands us...
