What Are Sputtering Targets?
Sputtering targets are key materials in the Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) process. They serve as the source atoms that are bombarded and transferred onto substrates to form thin films. Applications include semiconductors, displays, solar panels, and precision coatings.
Think of it as a microscopic “metal transfer”—where high-energy ions knock atoms off a solid target and deposit them onto a substrate surface.

How Sputtering Works
1. Gas Ionization: Argon is ionized in a vacuum.
2. Ion Bombardment: High-energy ions hit the target surface, ejecting atoms.
3. Thin Film Deposition: Ejected atoms condense on the substrate to form a film.
