Lithium Lanthanum Zirconate Sputtering

Target Description

Lithium lanthanum zirconate sputtering target is a silver sputtering material with the element Li, La, Zr and O. It is a conductive ceramic solid electrolyte material for lithium-ion batteries.

Lithium is a chemical element originated from the Greek ‘lithos’ meaning stone. It was first mentioned in 1817 and observed by A. Arfwedson. The isolation was later accomplished and announced by W. T. Brande. “Li” is the canonical chemical symbol of lithium. Its atomic number in the periodic table of elements is 3 with location at Period 2 and Group 1, belonging to the s-block. The relative atomic mass of lithium is 6.941(2) Dalton, the number in the brackets indicating the uncertainty.

Lanthanum is a chemical element with the symbol La and atomic number 57. Lanthanum is a soft, malleable and silvery-white metal. It is one of the most reactive rare earth elements. It can be utilized to make special optical glasses and can also be utilized to make steel more malleable. In addition, lanthanum is helpful in wastewater treatment and oil refining. Scientists have given the name of “super calcium” to Lanthanum due to its application of photoconversion film. 

Zirconium is a lustrous, grey-white, strong transition metal that closely resembles hafnium and, to a lesser extent, titanium. Zirconium is mainly used as a refractory and opacifier, although small amounts are used as an alloying agent for its strong resistance to corrosion. Zirconium forms a variety of inorganic and organometallic compounds such as zirconium dioxide and zirconocene dichloride, respectively. Five isotopes occur naturally, three of which are stable. Zirconium compounds have no known biological role.
