High-density hot-pressed Aluminum-Doped zinc oxide (AZO) (ZnO:Al2O3 (98:2 wt%), CAS 1314-13-2) ceramic sputtering targets in 4N (99.99%) purity, indium-bonded for arc-free RF and pulsed-DC thin-film deposition.
Sintered by vacuum hot-pressing or Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) from sub-micron 4N (99.99%) precursor powders, our Aluminum-Doped zinc oxide (AZO) (ZnO:Al2O3 (98:2 wt%), CAS 1314-13-2) sputtering targets achieve high relative density (typically 96%–99.5% of 5.55 g/cm³ theoretical density) and homogeneous phase stoichiometry. High density suppresses outgassing, surface nodule formation, and plasma arcing during RF magnetron or reactive pulsed-DC sputtering.
Conductive 98:2 wt% (or 99:1 wt%) sintered AZO targets offer an indium-free, hydrogen-plasma-stable transparent conductor compatible with DC, pulsed-DC, and RF magnetrons. Because ceramic targets have low thermal conductivity and limited thermal-shock resistance, we strongly recommend ordering ZnO:Al2O3 (98:2 wt%) targets metallic-indium bonded to an OFHC copper backing plate. Each target ships vacuum-packed with its batch chemical assay and density COA.
