This document details the processing constraints for Zirconium evaporation material in vacuum thin-film deposition. Successful deposition requires compatibility with e-beam evaporation hardware and careful matching of material properties to process parameters.
- Evaporation Source Compatibility: Zirconium evaporation material must be used with a water-cooled copper e-beam hearth and a compatible liner material selected from graphite, Al2O3, BN, or Ta.
- Process Parameter Matching: The material's melting point of 1852°C and Z-ratio of 0.6 must be considered when setting e-beam evaporation parameters to achieve consistent film deposition.
- Pre-Order Verification: Buyers must confirm that the material's purity, form, size range, and pack size are compatible with the deposition source geometry and process requirements before placing an order.
What is the melting point, density, and Z-ratio of the 99.5% pure zirconium evaporation material, and how do these parameters influence e-beam deposition process control?
The material has a melting point of 1,852°C, a density of 6.49 g/cm³, and a Z-ratio of 0.6. These parameters are critical for e-beam evaporation process control: the Z-ratio affects electron beam power coupling and deposition rate stability, while the melting point and density determine thermal behavior and film uniformity.
What liner materials are compatible with the water-cooled copper e-beam hearth for evaporating this zirconium material?
Compatible liners include graphite, Al2O3, BN, and Ta. Selection depends on the specific deposition conditions and potential reactivity with molten zirconium at its melting point of 1,852°C.
How does the 3-6 mm piece size of this zirconium material affect loading into e-beam evaporation sources?
The 3-6 mm piece size is designed to support consistent source loading and evaporation uniformity when used with a water-cooled copper e-beam hearth and compatible liner (e.g., graphite, Al2O3, BN, Ta). This size range helps avoid bridging or uneven melting during deposition.
Zirconium (Zr) evaporation material supplied as pieces (3-6 mm) with 99.5% purity, specified for e-beam evaporation using a water-cooled copper hearth or compatible liners (graphite/Al2O3/BN/Ta), with a melting point of 1852°C and density 6.49 g/cm³.
Positive
- Defined identity and purity grade: Zirconium (Zr) at 99.5% purity provides a clear procurement specification for deposition-process matching, enabling direct comparison with standard, high-purity, or RFQ-controlled grades.
- Optimized physical form and size: Supplied as pieces sized 3-6 mm, this form factor supports efficient source loading and consistent evaporation behavior in e-beam systems, with compatibility for water-cooled copper hearths and graphite/Al2O3/BN/Ta liners.
Trade-offs
- Requires hardware-process matching: The evaporation source hardware and process route must be carefully matched to the material's melting point (1852°C), density (6.49 g/cm³), and Z-ratio (0.6) to achieve reliable film deposition, as noted in the application matching checklist.
- Pre-shipment confirmation needed: Buyers must confirm deposition source geometry, required quantity, certificate requirements, and shipment conditions before quotation, adding procedural steps to procurement.
