This material must be processed using e-beam evaporation with a compatible hearth liner (graphite, Al2O3, BN) or thermal evaporation using W, Mo, or Ta boats. The high melting point (1,984°C) and pellet form require precise deposition source geometry and process route matching to avoid film defects.
- E-beam evaporation preference: E-beam evaporation is preferred; thermal evaporation requires RFQ and may need alternative hardware.
- Hearth liner compatibility: The hearth liner material must be graphite, Al2O3, or BN to withstand the melting temperature and avoid contamination.
- Pellet size accommodation: The pellet size (45 µm) and form affect loading density and evaporation rate; source geometry must accommodate the pellet dimensions.
- Z-ratio calibration: The Z-ratio of 1.00 must be entered into the quartz crystal monitor for accurate film thickness control.
- Process route matching: Deposition source hardware and process parameters must be matched to the material's melting point and desired film properties to prevent delamination or composition shifts.
Why is the Z-ratio of 1.00 for NiO evaporation material critical for thin film deposition process control?
The Z-ratio of 1.00 is directly specified for this NiO evaporation material and is used to calibrate quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) sensors for accurate film thickness monitoring during e-beam evaporation. This value eliminates the need for empirical adjustment, enabling precise and repeatable process control.
Which crucible liner materials are compatible with e-beam evaporation of NiO pellets at 1,984°C?
For e-beam evaporation, compatible liner materials include graphite, Al2O3, and BN. For thermal evaporation (by RFQ), W, Mo, or Ta boats are recommended. These options are explicitly listed in the product specifications to ensure proper deposition hardware selection and avoid contamination.
What pack sizes and pellet morphology are available for NiO evaporation material to support different deposition scales?
The NiO evaporation material is supplied as 45 µm pellets in 100g, 500g, and 1kg pack sizes. The 45 µm pellet size is designed to facilitate consistent source loading and evaporation rate stability, while the pack size options allow scaling from laboratory R&D to pilot production volumes.
Nickel Oxide (NiO) evaporation pellets at 99.995% purity and 45 µm pellet size offer a well-defined source material for high-vacuum thin-film deposition, with E-beam evaporation as the preferred route and thermal evaporation available by RFQ, requiring careful matching of deposition source hardware (e.g., e-beam hearth with graphite/Al2O3/BN liner or W/Mo/Ta boat).
Positive
- High purity 99.995%: The 99.995% purity specification enables reproducible film stoichiometry and minimizes contamination in sensitive thin-film applications, allowing direct comparison with standard and high-purity grades.
- Defined pellet form and size: Pellets at 45 µm provide consistent source loading geometry and predictable evaporation behavior, facilitating process matching for E-beam or thermal evaporation systems.
Trade-offs
- Hardware-dependent deposition route: E-beam evaporation is preferred; thermal evaporation requires RFQ and specific boat or liner materials (graphite, Al2O3, BN, W, Mo, Ta), mandating upfront compatibility verification with existing deposition hardware.
- Mandatory procurement checks: Buyers must confirm model, purity, form, size range, pack size, and deposition-source compatibility before ordering, and review certificate, safety data sheet, and shipment conditions for laboratory compliance.
