Sputtering Target Bonding Methods
Metallic bonding delivers excellent thermal conductivity and is recommended for most sputtering target bonding applications.
The most effective metallic bonding is with indium and is the preferred Kamis sputtering target bonding method. Kamis uses only high purity indium for the majority of its bonding, to ensure the strongest bond between a sputtering target and a backing plate. Indium also offers enhanced elasticity to accommodate any expansion of the target when in use.
Another advantage of bonding sputtering targets is continued use if cracking occurs during thermal shock. Without bonding to a backing plate, a crack in a sputtering target is considered unusable.
Hot pressed targets are one of the best candidates for bonding; however Kamis can bond almost any type of sputtering target to a backing plate. If you are unsure if your sputtering target should be bonded, feel free to contact us for specific advice about your target and sputtering system requirements.
Most sputtering targets are bonded to copper backing plates or copper sheet, as this material offers enhanced thermal conductivity. Kamis also offers other sputtering target backing plate options including stainless steel, molybdenum and aluminum.
Additionally, Kamis stocks numerous sputtering targets and backing plates in a wide variety of sizes and purities to work with multiple sputtering systems. Kamis also offers custom alloys and composites manufactured to your sputtering target specifications.
Kamis can bond a sputtering target to a new backing plate or to your previously used backing plate. Additionally, we have experience in bonding to a variety of backing plates including ones with holes, clips and other variations.
In addition to bonding, Kamis also offers a de-bonding service to remove your spent sputtering target from your backing plate. High purity sputtering targets can be reclaimed when the target is no longer usable for sputtering.

Thin Metal Films Analysis: Sputtered Neutral Mass Spectrometry
/0 Comments/in Thin Film Applications /by adminIt’s Kamis for Thin Metal Films
The continual move towards more and more compact read/write heads. While more closely spaced data tracks has lead to a considerable development of magnetic materials and structures for this demanding application. Analysis of the metallic layer structures used in magnetic data storage is vital for both development and quality management. Included is secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) and sputtered neutral mass spectrometry (SNMS). These offering information on minor and major element composition respectively.
SIMS and SNMS
Both SIMS and SNMS use a concentrated, mono- energetic, chemically pure ion beam of typically 1-10 keV to sputter erode the surface under study. Mass spectrometry technique: all elements and isotopes may be detected, and in favorable conditions the detection limit can be in the low ppb region. However, because the ionization mechanism for SIMS takes place at the sample surface, it is very much dependent on the local chemistry and the ionized fraction can vary by several orders of magnitude. This makes SIMS ideal for trace analysis in materials of known matrix. SNMS overcomes the “matrix effect” by separating the sputtering and ionization events.

Metal Targets During Sputtering
/0 Comments/in Sputtering Targets /by adminKAMIS Consistently Provides High Quality Metal Targets
When a Cu surface is sputtered by ion bombardment under the condition that Mo atoms arrive at the Cu surface during sputtering an unexpected phenomenon can arise: the surface of the Cu target becomes covered with microscopic cones. Also contact KAMIS about Au, Pt, Gd, Be, Ca, Sm, Ag, W, Zn, Ti, Nb, Pd, Sc, Cr, Rh, Mn, metal sputtering targets.
Dense Cone Coverage and Sputtering Yield
The cone density increases with increasing flux density of arriving Mo atoms. When the cones are closely spaced they give the target a velvet-like black appearance. The result of dense cone coverage are a lower sputtering yield and a more oblique ejection of sputtered material.
Finally, the cone tops seem to consist of Mo nuclei which are constantly replenished via surface migration and protect the underlying Cu from being sputtered.

Thin Film Sputtering Composition Measure
/0 Comments/in Sputtering Targets, Thin Film Applications /by adminThin Film Sputtering Composition Technique in the Sputtering Process
In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in studying dopants and contaminants in thin layers near surface in samples. This is due to device structures get smaller and smaller.
SIMS can be used for examining the elementary composition of the surface as well as near surface region of samples. Measured sensitivity is down to parts per billion. In order to get the maximum performance from the device, atmospheric contaminants with low atomic weight such as and oxygen (O), carbon (C), and hydrogen (H) should have low concentration levels.
SIMS: A High Sensitivity Surface Analysis Technique
In SIMS analysis, contamination of hydrocarbons on the surface of the sample to be assessed may produce incorrect results. Hydrocarbons exist abundantly in ambient atmosphere. Therefore, these often deposit on the surface of samples when exposed to air.
During SIMS analysis, the atmospheric contamination on the surface can be embedded into the sample by means of a primary ion beam. Consequently, this contamination leads to distorted or spurious profiles. Therefore, it is very important for operators to know whether they are determining the surface’s composition, or just viewing an artifact caused by contamination.

Thin-Film Technology Of The Ancient World
/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by adminKAMIS offers high quality sputtering targets, evaporation materials, crucible liners and other metals to help you meet the needs of your organization. For over two decades, KAMIS has been a trusted partner to the semiconductor industry, top research faculties and universities around the world.
Artists and craftsmen more than 2,000 years ago developed thin-film coating technology unrivaled even by today’s standards for producing DVDs, solar cells, electronic devices and other products. Understanding these sophisticated metal-plating techniques from ancient times, described in the ACS journal Accounts of Chemical Research, could help preserve priceless artistic and other treasures from the past.
Gabriel Maria Ingo and colleagues point out that scientists have made good progress in understanding the chemistry of many ancient artistic and other artifacts — crucial to preserve them for future generations. Big gaps in knowledge remained, however, about how gilders in the Dark Ages and other periods applied such lustrous, impressively uniform films of gold or silver to intricate objects. Ingo’s team set out to apply the newest analytical techniques to uncover the ancients’ artistic secrets.
They discovered that gold- and silversmiths 2,000 years ago developed a variety of techniques, including using mercury like a glue to apply thin films of metals to statues and other objects. Sometimes, the technology was used to apply real gold and silver. It also was used fraudulently, to make cheap metal statues that look like solid gold or silver. The scientists say that their findings confirm “the high level of competence reached by the artists and craftsmen of these ancient periods who produced objects of an artistic quality that could not be bettered in ancient times and has not yet been reached in modern ones.” Read More
