This lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2) sputtering target from Nanografi has a purity of 99.9%, a size of 1'' and a thickness of 0.250''. It serves as the source material for sputter deposition of LiCoO2 thin films. Lithium cobalt oxide is a dark blue or bluish-gray crystalline solid widely used in the positive electrodes of lithium-ion batteries.
A key use is the fabrication of thin film batteries, which can power low-power devices such as portable electronics and micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS). For this work, the target is typically bonded to a backing plate and run in a D.C. magnetron sputter system. Inside an evacuated chamber filled with an inert gas, preferably argon, ionized gas strikes the target surface, releasing material that travels to the substrate and forms a LiCoO2 film.
Sputtering is a repeatable process that can move from small research projects to production batches covering medium to large substrate areas, and its many parameters give close control over film growth and microstructure.
- Deposition of LiCoO2 thin films as cathode layers for thin film lithium-ion batteries.
- Producing power sources for low-power portable electronic devices and MEMS.
- Thin film deposition onto substrates such as silicon wafers by D.C. magnetron sputtering.
- Research and development work that can be scaled up to medium and large substrate areas.
