Lanthanum Iron Oxide

Lanthanum Iron Oxide sputtering target is a kind of target with lanthanum iron oxide as the main component, usually in the form of a block, with high purity and good chemical stability, can effectively release the lanthanum and iron oxide components in the sputtering process, and is used for the deposition of thin films on the substrate material with specific electrical, magnetic and other properties, which plays an important role in the field of electronics, magnetic materials, optics, and many other fields. It plays an important role in electronics, magnetic materials, optics and many other fields.

Characteristics

Appearance: Lanthanum Iron Oxide is usually in a solid state and has a somewhat metallic appearance, with the exact colour and surface condition varying depending on the production process and purity.

Melting and boiling point: melting point is 977℃, boiling point is 1890℃, it has a high melting and boiling point, which makes it able to withstand high energy input in the sputtering process but not easy to melt or volatilise, which ensures the stability of the sputtering process.

Solubility: Lanthanum Iron Oxide is insoluble in water, which means that there is no need to worry about dissolution or deterioration of the target material due to contact with water in regular storage and use environments.

Chemical stability: Lanthanum Iron Oxide has good chemical stability, and is not easy to react with other substances at room temperature. However, in the sputtering process, physical changes will occur under the bombardment of high-energy particles, forming a thin film and deposited on the substrate.

Compositional homogeneity: As a material used in the preparation of thin films, the homogeneity of the composition of Lanthanum Iron Oxide is critical to the performance of the film. High-quality lanthanum-iron oxide sputtering targets have good compositional uniformity, which ensures that the sputtered film has a stable composition and consistent properties.
