Zirconium evaporation pieces (3-6 mm, 99.95%) require e-beam deposition with a water-cooled copper hearth and a compatible liner (graphite, Al2O3, BN, or Ta). The material's melting point, density, and Z-ratio must be used for process parameter setup and thickness monitoring.
- Liner Compatibility: Select a liner from graphite, Al2O3, BN, or Ta to prevent contamination and ensure thermal stability during evaporation.
- Piece Size Constraint: The 3-6 mm piece size must be used to ensure consistent source loading and evaporation rate uniformity.
- Melting Point Constraint: Set the e-beam power to achieve and maintain the 1852°C melting point for stable evaporation.
- Z-Ratio Constraint: Use the Z-ratio of 0.6 for accurate quartz crystal microbalance thickness monitoring.
- Density Constraint: Use the density of 6.49 g/cm³ for material charge calculation and film thickness estimation.
What is the Z-Ratio value for Zirconium evaporation material and how does it impact e-beam deposition process control?
The Z-Ratio for this Zirconium evaporation material is 0.6. This value is critical for accurate film thickness monitoring using a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) during e-beam deposition, as it corrects for the acoustic impedance mismatch between the deposited film and the crystal sensor.
Which liner materials are compatible with Zirconium evaporation in a water-cooled copper e-beam hearth?
Compatible liner materials include graphite, Al2O3, BN, and Ta, as specified in the product technical specifications. The water-cooled copper e-beam hearth is the preferred evaporation source, and these liners can be used to contain the Zirconium pieces during deposition.
How does the melting point of 1,852°C for Zirconium evaporation material influence the choice of deposition method and hardware?
The high melting point of 1,852°C necessitates the use of e-beam evaporation as the preferred method, along with a water-cooled copper hearth and compatible liners (graphite, Al2O3, BN, or Ta) to withstand the thermal load. This ensures controlled evaporation without contamination or damage to the source.
Zirconium (Zr) evaporation material in pieces form with 99.95% purity and 3-6 mm size, optimized for e-beam deposition in vacuum thin-film workflows. Requires compatible water-cooled copper hearth and appropriate liner material.
Positive
- High 99.95% purity specification: The 99.95% purity level minimizes contamination in deposited thin films, supporting consistent electrical and structural properties in research-grade coatings.
- Defined piece size for e-beam compatibility: Pieces sized 3-6 mm facilitate loading into water-cooled copper e-beam hearths and reduce the risk of source bridging or uneven melting during deposition.
Trade-offs
- Requires specific e-beam hearth configuration: Optimal evaporation demands a water-cooled copper e-beam hearth with compatible liners (graphite, Al2O3, BN, or Ta); not all systems are pre-configured for this setup.
- Material properties demand process tuning: With a melting point of 1,852°C, density of 6.49 g/cm³, and Z-ratio of 0.6, deposition parameters must be carefully adjusted to achieve stable evaporation rates and film uniformity.
