Sputtering Targets and Sputtered Films Market Overview
Sputtering is a PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) class of thin film technology. The material to be coated (the sputtering target) is bombarded with plasma ions and the removed particles enter into the gas phase. The vapour then condenses on the substrate surface, adheres to it firmly, and forms a very thin layer.A sputtering target is the object of the ion bombardment when sputtering takes place.
