Molybdenum is a typical refractory metal. It has high melting point of 2620 ℃, strong interatomic binding force, low expansion coefficient, high conductivity and good thermal conductivity. Molybdenum target has wide application in the coating industry.

With the rapid development of electronic information industry, the application of molybdenum as the sputtering target has been increasing. The sputtering material is the foundation of obtaining thin film material. The research on target material has also been greatly developed due to the rapid development of thin film science and the continuous progress of thin film technology. The application fields of the sputtering target include the decorative coating, optical coating, semiconductors, solar cells, electronics, automotive, glass and so on.

Molybdenum target has many excellent characteristics, so it is widely used in the plane display industry, thin film solar cell industry, semiconductor industry, medical industry, mechanical processing industry, solid lubrication and other aspects.

In recent years, molybdenum alloy targets as electrodes and wiring materials of flat panel displays such as LCO (Liquid Crystal Display) and PDP (Plasma Display) have attracted more and more attention. In TFT-LCO, the gate electrode is a key component and is typically fabricated from a Cr/AL gate material.
As flat-panel displays become larger in size and higher in accuracy, their requirements for specific impedance of materials are becoming more and more demanding. The specific impedance and membrane stress of molybdenum are only 1/2 of that of chromium, and no toxic hexavalent chromium is produced during the etching process. Therefore, more and more companies use Mo / AL as the gate material, so the demand for molybdenum targets also increases.

The addition of V, Nb, W and Ta to molybdenum makes the specific resistance, stress and corrosion resistance of molybdenum better. In the field of solar cells, the unification of low cost and high efficiency has always been the goal of solar energy development. For the current market, low-cost thin-film solar cells will become major players in the solar market. The back electrode material is required in the thin film solar cell film layer, and the molybdenum target has the advantages of resistance to glass corrosion, high temperature resistance and good electrical conductivity, and thus is the first choice for the back electrode material.

Besides that, molybdenum target can be used with other target materials co-sputtering or other process conditions, and it is widely used in the fields of semiconductor wiring, medical treatment, mechanical processing and solid lubrication.

Another important application of molybdenum in the coating industry is spray coating. Molybdenum coating is widely used to improve the wear resistance of piston ring, bearing, extrusion equipment, engine cylinder, turbine parts, etc.
