This indium wire evaporation material is designed for thermal resistive evaporation using W, Mo, or Ta filament, basket, coil, or boat sources. Successful deposition requires matching the material's melting point, density, and Z-ratio to the specific process and hardware configuration.
- Evaporation Source Compatibility: Use only with W, Mo, or Ta filament, basket, coil, or boat evaporation sources.
- Process Route Matching: Confirm the thermal resistive evaporation method is compatible with the material's melting point (157°C), density (7.3 g/cm³), and Z-ratio (0.841).
- Procurement Verification: Always confirm model, purity, form, size range, pack size, and deposition-source compatibility before finalizing quotation.
- Deposition Source Geometry: Verify the deposition source geometry matches the wire diameter and loading requirements.
- Documentation and Shipment Review: Review certificate of analysis, safety data sheet, shipment conditions, and export requirements for laboratory use.
What evaporation sources are compatible with 1.0 mm diameter Indium wire for thermal resistive evaporation?
This Indium wire (99.99%, 1.0 mm diameter) is specifically designed for thermal/resistive evaporation using tungsten (W), molybdenum (Mo), or tantalum (Ta) filament, basket, coil, or boat sources. The wire form and 1.0 mm diameter are specified to facilitate reliable loading into these source geometries, as stated in the product's evaporation source specification.
What is the melting point of Indium evaporation material and how does it influence thermal deposition parameters?
The melting point is specified as 157 °C (standard indium value, consistent with the provided figure). This low melting point enables thermal evaporation at reduced power levels compared to higher-melting-point metals, minimizing thermal stress on substrates and allowing use with standard W/Mo/Ta sources. The density of 7.3 g/cm³ and Z-ratio of 0.841 are also provided for process calibration and film thickness monitoring.
This indium wire (99.99% purity, 1.0 mm diameter) is suited for thermal evaporation in thin-film deposition, offering a defined material identity and compatibility with W/Mo/Ta sources. Its low melting point (157°C) and Z-ratio of 0.841 demand careful temperature control and quartz crystal monitor recalibration for accurate film thickness measurement.
Positive
- High purity and defined wire form: 99.99% purity and 1.0 mm wire diameter ensure reproducible material loading and consistent film quality in thermal evaporation processes.
- Broad evaporation source compatibility: Specified for use with W/Mo/Ta filament, basket, coil, or boat sources, providing flexibility in vacuum deposition system integration.
Trade-offs
- Low melting point requires precise control: With a melting point of 157°C, the material is prone to premature evaporation or splattering if temperature ramping is not carefully managed, especially in high-vacuum systems.
- Z-ratio deviates from common metals: A Z-ratio of 0.841 differs from typical values (e.g., 0.5-0.7 for many metals), necessitating recalibration of quartz crystal microbalance monitors to maintain accurate film thickness readings.
