Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia<\/a><\/span> sputtering target is a ceramic target made from zirconium oxide (ZrO\u2082) stabilized with yttrium oxide (Y\u2082O\u2083). By controlling the yttria content, YSZ targets can provide different crystal phases and material properties for thin-film deposition.<\/p>\n

YSZ sputtering targets are widely used for physical vapor deposition (PVD), RF sputtering, optical coatings, thermal barrier coatings, solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) research, and advanced ceramic thin films.<\/p>\n

VIMATERIAL supplies YSZ sputtering targets with different yttria contents, including 3 mol% and 8 mol% Y\u2082O\u2083, with customized dimensions, purity, and packaging available according to customer requirements. Contact us<\/a><\/strong><\/span> for more information.<\/p>\n
