Boron Nitride (BN) Sputtering Target
High Purity BN Ceramics for Thin-film Application
Stanford Advanced Materials (SAM) supplies high-purity boron nitride (BN) sputtering targets engineered for stable, high-efficiency thin film deposition. BN is a ceramic compound known for its exceptional thermal stability, electrical insulation, and non-stick properties, making it an ideal material for a wide range of advanced coating applications.
Our BN sputtering targets are offered in standard and customized dimensions, with optimized microstructure and density to ensure low particle generation and excellent film uniformity.

Boron Nitride (BN) Sputtering Target Bonding Services
BN targets are typically bonded before installation to prevent cracking during sputtering. We offer:
-
Elastomer Bonding – Recommended for BN due to its brittleness and low thermal conductivity.
-
Indium Bonding – Optional, but use caution with high-temperature cycling.
-
Custom Backing Plates – Available in copper, molybdenum, stainless steel, and more.
Boron Nitride (BN) Sputtering Target Packaging
Each boron nitride target is vacuum-sealed and securely packaged with foam inserts in a clean environment to prevent contamination and mechanical damage. All shipments include full labeling and traceability.
