[labnetwork] [URL Verdict: Neutral][Non-DoD Source] Re: Iridium sputter target?

Fri Apr 22 10:20:44 EDT 2022

Hi Brian,

We might be able to help.  We have an 8” Ir target on one of our sputter systems that we use for Ir and IrO2 sputtering.  The heater is currently down for that system so we would only be able to do room temperature depositions.

Best Regards,

Rob

I don’t know who else on campus might be running a system for that, but we, at least, don’t currently have Iridium capability.

UW Seattle used to have an 8” target (yes, 8”!). You can check with them?

The same situation there. We were asked for Ir sputtering last month. The cost of a 3 inch target is more than $100,000 from the quote that we got from a supplier. That stops us from proceeding with the project. 

Best,

Chao

We were also asked to deposit iridium last year and the cost of the 3” target immediately stopped the project.

Hi,

I've got a prospective customer interested in sputtering iridium. We don't have an iridium target and it probably doesn't make a lot of sense for us to purchase one for extremely limited interest/use. However, if there is another lab that has this capability I would be happy to steer them to you for at least this step in their process.

Any information or help is appreciated.

Thanks,
