About Nickel (Ni)
Nickel is a widely used element in alloying with iron, chromium, molybdenum, and tungsten to produce stainless steel and other corrosion-resistant alloys. This is due to its unique properties, such as its ability to resist corrosion and maintain strength at high temperatures.
In addition to its use in alloys, nickel is also commonly used in electronics applications due to its high electrical conductivity. For example, it is used in nickel hydride batteries and ceramic anode formulations for oxygen generation and solid oxide fuel cells.
Nickel also has uses in the art world as a pigment. When added to glass and ceramic glazes, it creates a bright green color that is highly desired.
When it comes to sourcing nickel for scientific purposes, it is available in various forms such as metal, pellets, rod, wire, granules, nanoparticles, and nanopowders. It is also available in different compounds with purities ranging from 99% to 99.999% (ACS grade to ultra-high purity).
For applications requiring nickel oxides, they are available in powder and dense pellet form for uses such as optical coating and thin film applications. However, it is important to note that oxides tend to be insoluble. Nickel fluorides are another insoluble form used in metallurgy, chemical and physical vapor deposition, and some optical coatings. Soluble forms of nickel are also available, such as chlorides, nitrates, and acetates, which can be manufactured as solutions at specified stoichiometries.

What are the materials used in thin film deposition?
Thin film deposition commonly utilizes metals, oxides, and compounds as materials, each with its unique advantages and disadvantages. Metals are preferred for their durability and ease of deposition but are relatively expensive. Oxides are highly durable, can withstand high temperatures, and can be deposited at low temperatures, but can be brittle and challenging to work with. Compounds offer strength and durability, can be deposited at low temperatures and tailored to exhibit specific properties.
The selection of material for a thin film coating is dependent on the application requirements. Metals are ideal for thermal and electrical conduction, while oxides are effective in offering protection. Compounds can be tailored to suit specific needs. Ultimately, the best material for a particular project will depend on the specific needs of the application.

What are sputtering targets for electronics?
What are the methods to achieve optimal thin film deposition?
To achieve thin films with desirable properties, high-quality sputtering targets and evaporation materials are essential. The quality of these materials can be influenced by various factors, such as purity, grain size, and surface condition.
The purity of sputtering targets or evaporation materials plays a crucial role, as impurities can cause defects in the resulting thin film. Grain size also affects the quality of the thin film, with larger grains leading to poor film properties. Additionally, the surface condition is crucial, since rough surfaces can result in defects in the film.
To attain the highest quality sputtering targets and evaporation materials, it is crucial to select materials that possess high purity, small grain size, and smooth surfaces.
Uses of Thin Film Deposition
Zinc Oxide-Based Thin Films
ZnO thin films find applications in several industries such as thermal, optical, magnetic, and electrical, but their primary use is in coatings and semiconductor devices.
Thin-Film Resistors
Thin-film resistors are crucial for modern technology and are used in radio receivers, circuit boards, computers, radiofrequency devices, monitors, wireless routers, Bluetooth modules, and cell phone receivers.
Magnetic Thin Films
Magnetic thin films are used in electronics, data storage, radio-frequency identification, microwave devices, displays, circuit boards, and optoelectronics as key components.
Optical Thin Films
Optical coatings and optoelectronics are standard applications of optical thin films. Molecular beam epitaxy can produce optoelectronic thin-film devices (semiconductors), where epitaxial films are deposited one atom at a time onto the substrate.
Polymer Thin Films
Polymer thin films are used in memory chips, solar cells, and electronic devices. Chemical deposition techniques (CVD) offer precise control of polymer film coatings, including conformance and coating thickness.
Thin-Film Batteries
Thin-film batteries power electronic devices such as implantable medical devices, and the lithium-ion battery has advanced significantly thanks to the use of thin films.
Thin-Film Coatings
Thin-film coatings enhance the chemical and mechanical characteristics of target materials in various industries and technological fields. Anti-reflective coatings, anti-ultraviolet or anti-infrared coatings, anti-scratch coatings, and lens polarization are some common examples.
Thin-Film Solar Cells
Thin-film solar cells are essential to the solar energy industry, enabling the production of relatively cheap and clean electricity. Photovoltaic systems and thermal energy are the two main applicable technologies.

Factors and Parameters that Influence Deposition of Thin Films
Deposition Rate:
The rate at which the film is produced, typically measured in thickness divided by time, is crucial for selecting a technology suitable for the application. Moderate deposition rates are sufficient for thin films, while quick deposition rates are necessary for thick films. It is important to strike a balance between speed and precise film thickness control.
Uniformity:
The consistency of the film across the substrate is known as uniformity, which usually refers to film thickness but can also relate to other properties such as the index of refraction. It is important to have a good understanding of the application to avoid under- or over-specifying uniformity.
Fill Capability:
Fill capability or step coverage refers to how well the deposition process covers the substrate's topography. The deposition method used (e.g., CVD, PVD, IBD, or ALD) has a significant impact on step coverage and fill.
Film Characteristics:
The characteristics of the film depend on the application's requirements, which can be categorized as photonic, optical, electronic, mechanical, or chemical. Most films must meet requirements in more than one category.
Process Temperature:
Film characteristics are significantly affected by process temperature, which may be limited by the application.
Damage:
Each deposition technology has the potential to damage the material being deposited upon, with smaller features being more susceptible to process damage. Pollution, UV radiation, and ion bombardment are among the potential sources of damage. It is crucial to understand the limitations of the materials and tools.
