Thin Film
Thin Film Portfolio
Ceramic Targets
Vital provides a broad range of oxide, nitride, fluoride, and composite ceramic targets for dielectric, optical, and functional coatings. These high-density targets are designed for stable sputtering behavior, uniform film thickness, and excellent adhesion on glass, metal, and semiconductor substrates.
Metal Targets
Our metal targets cover common and specialty pure metals as well as selected alloys used for interconnects, reflective layers, diffusion barriers, and seed layers. Each target is engineered for consistent composition, low impurity levels, and reliable performance in DC and RF sputtering systems.
Sputtering Targets
Vital sputtering targets are available in planar and rotatable designs with customizable dimensions, hole patterns, and backing options. We support magnetron sputtering, cluster tools, and in-line coaters, helping customers optimize utilization, uptime, and coating uniformity across large-area substrates.
Evaporation Materials
For thermal and electron-beam evaporation, we offer pellets, slugs, granules, wire, and other forms in a variety of metals and compounds. Controlled composition and form factor enable clean evaporation, stable deposition rates, and repeatable film properties for optical, decorative, and functional coatings.
Precious Metal Targets
Vital supplies precious metal targets for applications such as contact layers, reflective coatings, sensors, and medical electronics. Combined with our recycling and refining capabilities, we help customers manage cost and sustainability for platinum group metals, gold, silver, and related alloys.
Bonding Services
Our bonding services support reliable attachment of targets to backing plates to improve cooling, stability, and target lifetime. We offer bonding solutions compatible with common sputter gun designs and can work with customer specifications for plate materials, hole patterns, and interfaces.
Thin Film Accessories
To support daily operation and maintenance, Vital provides selected thin film accessories such as backing plates, shields, and related hardware. These components are designed to integrate smoothly with customer tools and help maintain clean, repeatable coating environments.
