Niobium Carbide Sputtering Targets
Niobium carbide (NbC and Nb2C) is a tough refractory ceramic material, commercially used in tool bits for cutting tools. It is usually processed by sintering and is a frequent additive as a grain growth inhibitor in cemented carbides. It has the appearance of a brown-gray metallic powder with purple luster. It is highly corrosion-resistant. The deposition of niobium carbide (NbC) thin films uses an RF magnetron sputtering apparatus with a NbC target.
Niobium Carbide Sputtering Targets Information
Niobium Carbide Sputtering Targets
Purity: 99.5%;
Circular: Diameter <= 14 inch, Thickness >= 1mm;
Block: Length <= 32 inch, Width <= 12 inch, Thickness >= 1mm.
Bonding is recommended for these materials. Many materials have characteristics that are not amenable to sputtering, such as brittleness and low thermal conductivity. This material may require a special ramp up and ramp down procedures. This process may not be necessary for other materials. Targets that have low thermal conductivity are susceptible to thermal shock.
