Material & Engineering Overview

Sintered by vacuum hot-pressing or Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) from sub-micron 4N (99.99%) precursor powders, our titanium dioxide (TiO2 / TiO2-x, CAS 13463-67-7) sputtering targets achieve high relative density (typically 96%–99.5% of 4.15 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.

Available both as white stoichiometric rutile TiO2 (for RF sputtering) and dark oxygen-reduced semiconducting TiO2-x ceramic (enabling higher-rate DC / pulsed-DC sputtering!). Because ceramic targets have low thermal conductivity and limited thermal-shock resistance, we strongly recommend ordering TiO2 / TiO2-x targets metallic-indium bonded to an OFHC copper backing plate. Each target ships vacuum-packed with its batch chemical assay and density COA.

Technical & Procurement FAQ

Why should titanium dioxide (TiO2 / TiO2-x) targets be indium-bonded to an OFHC copper backing plate?
As a brittle ceramic, TiO2 / TiO2-x develops steep radial thermal gradients under RF plasma heating; full-coverage metallic indium bonding transfers heat efficiently into the water-cooled copper backing plate and prevents thermal-stress cracking.
What RF power conditioning procedure avoids cracking a new TiO2 / TiO2-x target?
Start at low RF power (~15–25 W on a 2-inch target), ramp slowly at 5–10 W/min over 20–30 minutes while monitoring reflected power, and never exceed ~2–4 W/cm² power density on dielectric oxide/nitride targets.
Is oxygen or nitrogen reactive gas backfill needed when sputtering TiO2 / TiO2-x?
RF sputtering in pure argon often produces slightly anion-deficient films; introducing 1%–10% O2 (for oxides) or N2 (for nitrides) in the Ar plasma restores full stoichiometry and optical transparency.
