This material requires e-beam evaporation using a water-cooled copper hearth with a compatible liner, and its Z-ratio of 0.6 must be used for deposition rate calibration. The high melting point of 1852°C necessitates sufficient e-beam power and thermal management to avoid source damage.
- Deposition Source Compatibility: Use only water-cooled copper e-beam hearth with graphite, alumina, boron nitride, or tantalum liner to prevent chemical reaction or contamination.
- Calibration Requirement: Set the quartz crystal monitor to Z-ratio 0.6 to ensure accurate thickness measurement during deposition.
- Melting Point Consideration: The material's melting point of 1852°C requires sufficient e-beam power and proper hearth cooling to avoid thermal runaway or liner damage.
What is the significance of the Z-ratio of 0.6 for zirconium evaporation material in e-beam deposition?
The Z-ratio of 0.6 is a material-specific parameter used in quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) monitoring to accurately measure film thickness during deposition. For zirconium pellets with 99.9% purity and 1-3 mm size, this Z-ratio value ensures proper calibration of the deposition rate controller, which is critical for achieving reproducible thin-film properties.
What liner materials are compatible with the e-beam evaporation of zirconium pellets?
Compatible liner materials for evaporating zirconium pellets in a water-cooled copper e-beam hearth include graphite, aluminum oxide (Al2O3), boron nitride (BN), and tantalum (Ta). These materials are selected to withstand the high melting point of zirconium (1,852°C) and minimize contamination of the deposited film.
What is the preferred evaporation method and source configuration for depositing zirconium thin films?
The preferred evaporation method is e-beam evaporation using a water-cooled copper hearth. This configuration ensures efficient heat dissipation and prevents the pellets from melting through the crucible. The zirconium pellets, sized 1-3 mm, are suitable for uniform loading into the hearth.
Zirconium evaporation pellets (99.9%, 1-3 mm) are suited for e-beam deposition with water-cooled copper hearths, but require pre-order confirmation of source geometry and handling of high melting point constraints.
Positive
- High-purity zirconium pellets: 99.9% purity ensures minimal contamination in thin-film deposition, suitable for research-grade applications.
- Optimized pellet size for e-beam: 1-3 mm pellet size facilitates consistent source loading and stable evaporation in water-cooled copper e-beam hearths.
Trade-offs
- Pre-quotation confirmation required: Buyers must verify deposition source geometry, pack size, certificate, and shipment conditions before ordering to ensure compatibility.
- High melting point constraints: Melting point of 1,852°C requires robust e-beam power and compatible liner materials (graphite/Al2O3/BN/Ta) to avoid thermal damage.
