There are some technical limitations to the maximum size for a given single piece construction. In such cases, a multi-segmented target can be produced with the individual segments joined together by butt or beveled joints. OUR SPUTTERING TARGETS AT A GLANCE • Pure metal and alloy targets (99% to 99.9999%), industrial application targets: Al, Ni/Cr, Mo, Ta, Ti, Ti/Al, W... • Precious metal targets: Ag, Au, Ir, Pd, Pt, Rh... and alloys on request. • Hot pressed oxides and intermetallic targets without binder: Al2O3, AZO, ITO, PZT, SiO2, ZnO... • Circular, rectangular, Delta, ring, tube and any shape on request. • All targets are delivered with a certificate of analysis. D 02 MATERIALS / INORGANICS & THIN FILMS GUIDE MATERIALS SPUTTERING TARGETS Manufacturing Processes D Manufacturing Processes Neyco manufactures sputtering targets from a wide variety of compositions in various purity levels, allowing customers to match targets to their spe- cific requirements. We employ a number of different target manufacturing techniques to yield optimum grain size, density, hardness and composition.

    Journal of Ovonic Research Vol. 1, No. 5, October 2005, p. 53 - 60 PHASE EQUILIBRIUM IN THE SYSTEMS AIV – BVI Part. II Systems Germanium-Chalcogen D. I. Bletskan* Uzhgorod University, Uzhgorod, Ukraine The phases in the system germanium – chalcogen are reviewed. The phase transitions are discussed. 1.4 System Ge-S The phase diagram T-x of the binary system Ge-S has been firstly built by A. V. Novoselova et al. [39] using the data of thermal and X-ray analysis. Thereafter, the regions of the phase diagrams of the system Ge-S in the neighborhood of GeS and GeS2 have been carefully determined in [40-44] and are represented in Fig. 1.4. In this system there were found two stable chemical compounds, whose stoichiometric compositions correspond to GeS and GeSe2. The temperature conditions of GeS and GeS2 synthesis, the melting character and melting temperature, given in the literature, are different. Thus, the melting temperature of GeS, after the data of various authors are 938 K [39, 42], 940 K [40], 931 K [41, 46]. Many research reports [39, 42-44] show that GeS compound melts congruently. Nevertheless, in the papers [40, 41, 46] is demonstrated that, during very slow heating, GeS melts incongruently, according to the peritectic reaction: GeS(solid) = Ge(solid) + Liq(53 at.% S) (1.4) In the system Ge-S, on the germanium side, there is a large domain (3÷45 at.% S) of layer separation in the liquid state (stratification) with one phase rich in germanium and a phase with the composition approaching GeS.

  • High-Throughput Physical Vapour Deposition Flexible Thermoelectric Generators
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN High-throughput physical vapour deposition fexible thermoelectric generators Received: 14 January 2019 Katrina A. Morgan 1, Tian Tang2, Ioannis Zeimpekis 1, Andrea Ravagli1, Chris Craig1, Accepted: 25 February 2019 Jin Yao1, Zhuo Feng1, Dmitry Yarmolich3, Clara Barker 2, Hazel Assender2 & Published: xx xx xxxx Daniel W. Hewak1 Flexible thermoelectric generators (TEGs) can provide uninterrupted, green energy from body-heat, overcoming bulky battery confgurations that limit the wearable-technologies market today. High- throughput production of fexible TEGs is currently dominated by printing techniques, limiting material choices and performance. This work investigates the compatibility of physical vapour deposition (PVD) techniques with a fexible commercial process, roll-to-roll (R2R), for thermoelectric applications. We demonstrate, on a fexible polyimide substrate, a sputtered Bi2Te3/GeTe TEG with Seebeck coefcient (S) of 140 μV/K per pair and output power (P) of 0.4 nW per pair for a 20 °C temperature diference. For the frst time, thermoelectric properties of R2R sputtered Bi2Te3 flms are reported and we demonstrate the ability to tune the power factor by lowering run times, lending itself to a high- speed low-cost process. To further illustrate this high-rate PVD/R2R compatibility, we fabricate a TEG using Virtual Cathode Deposition (VCD), a novel high deposition rate PVD tool, for the frst time. This Bi2Te3/Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3 TEG exhibits S = 250 μV/K per pair and P = 0.2 nW per pair for a 20 °C temperature diference. Termoelectric generators (TEGs) can provide constant power for fexible electronic platforms. Using the body’s warmth, they do not rely on solar power, unlike photovoltaic generators, or on the user’s ftness, unlike elec- tromagnetic induction generators.

Ram, Andrew, Arthur, I've learned so much from each of you about such different things. Ram, I couldn't hope to find a more supportive mentor to help me develop into a mature scientist. Being a scientist is more than a career, it's a way of life. You have helped me develop scientific aesthetic, and have shown me how to conduct myself in research, and collaborative endeavours. Everything is interesting, but I will continually strive to focus on what is important. To the MeRL, which has been a warm and welcoming home, as well as a dynamic and exuberant research community to belong to. I have discovered what it means to be a part of a research community, and it has been my great pleasure and honor to work with such amazing people, at such an incredible institution.

  • Microwave Assisted Synthesis of Thermoelectric Nanostructures
    ROYAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY Microwave assisted synthesis of thermoelectric nanostructures: p- and n-type Bi2-xSbxTe3 VIKING ROOSMARK Master of Science Thesis Department of Applied Physics KTH – Royal Institute of Technology Stockholm, Sweden 2018 1 (37) Supervisor Mr. Bejan Hamawandi [email protected] Examiner Prof. Muhammet S. Toprak [email protected] Biomedical and X-Ray Physics KTH/Albanova SE-106 91 Stockholm TRITA-SCI-GRU 2018:416 2 (37) Abstract Improving the way energy can be obtained, is becoming increasingly important from both environmental and economical aspects. Thermoelectric (TE) materials can be a stepping stone in the right direction for better energy management, seeing how they can recycle waste heat and generate electricity from energy that otherwise would be wasted. In recent years TE materials have been the focus of several projects to find materials which can easily and inexpensively be used in devices to harvest heat and produce clean energy, which is aimed by this project. TE nanomaterials based on the Bi2-xSbxTe3 system with different stoichiometry (x) have been synthesized using a bottom-up microwave (MW) assisted synthesis method. Nanopowders have been consolidated with SPS into pellets to examine their TE transport properties. The purpose of the project was to fabricate p- and n-type TE materials with comparable thermal expansion, for the purpose of obtaining a high efficiency TE device with high durability. The MW assisted synthesis shows highly reproducible results with nanopowders having good uniformity with low to none batch to batch variation in the powder composition. One of the most important aspects of this technique is the process speed, the MW heating itself only takes 2-3 min to synthesize the desired TE material using the developed thermolysis route.
