Sodium Fluoride Sputtering Target is a specialized form of sodium fluoride used in thin-film deposition techniques, such as physical vapor deposition (PVD) and sputtering, to create high-purity, uniform coatings on various substrates. This target enables the precise deposition of sodium fluoride in applications requiring optical, electronic, or protective coatings.
Formula: NaF
Molecular Weight: 41.99 g/mol
Appearance: The target usually appears as a dense, white solid, typically in the shape of a circular or rectangular disc, prepared for mounting in sputtering equipment.
Purity: High purity levels, often 99.9% or higher, are required for sputtering targets to ensure the quality and consistency of the deposited films.
Density: Approximately 2.558 g/cm³, ensuring durability during the sputtering process.
Thermal Properties: Sodium fluoride has a melting point of around 993°C (1,819°F), which is suitable for high-temperature sputtering conditions.
Optical Coatings: Sodium fluoride sputtering targets are widely used to deposit thin films for optical coatings due to their transparency in the ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) regions. These coatings are often applied to lenses, mirrors, and other optical devices to enhance performance and control light transmission.
Semiconductor and Electronic Components: Sodium fluoride sputtering targets are sometimes applied in semiconductor manufacturing and on electronic components to modify surface properties or provide insulating layers.
Protective and Anti-Reflective Coatings: Sodium fluoride sputtering targets are used in protective coatings that resist moisture, chemicals, and other environmental factors, making them ideal for applications in harsh or reactive environments.
Research and Development: Sodium fluoride sputtering targets are used in R&D for materials science and thin-film technology, enabling experimental coatings for new product development and analysis of sodium fluoride film properties.
Protective Equipment: Handling sodium fluoride targets requires proper protective gear, as sodium fluoride dust can be toxic if inhaled or ingested. Safety goggles, gloves, and masks are recommended.
Storage: Store in a dry, cool place, away from moisture and incompatible materials like strong acids to avoid decomposition or reactivity issues.
VI HALBLEITERMATERIAL GmbH (VIMATERIAL) employs a stringent quality assurance system to ensure the reliability of our product quality. Strict quality control is implemented throughout the entire production chain, and for defective products, we strictly enforce the principle of rework and redo. Each batch is released only after passing detailed specification tests.
Every batch of our materials is independently tested, and, if necessary, we send samples to certified companies for testing. We provide these documents and analysis certificates with the shipment to certify that our products meet the required standards.
