Description

Sputtering targets are materials from which thin films are grown by sputtering method, and the targets are fabricated by processing metals or ceramics. We have been providing sputtering target products of a variety of materials, purities and shapes, by combining our technologies of melting, sintering, synthesis and mechanical processing together. Selection of a fabrication method and customization according to the use and purpose are possible, and we will conduct fabrication of a target by an optimum fabrication method according to your request and a material of the target.

Further, we have been producing also backing plates used for the sputtering targets according to our customers’ requests.
