Application

The Terbium sputtering target, measuring 76.2mm in diameter and 1.59mm thick, is utilized primarily in the semiconductor industry due to terbium's unique properties. As a silvery-metallic element, terbium (Symbol Tb; atomic number 65) is valued for its ability to act as a dopant in the fabrication of materials such as calcium fluoride, calcium tungstate, and strontium molybdate, which are essential in solid-state devices. Additionally, it serves a crucial role as a crystal stabilizer in fuel cells operating at high temperatures. Extracted from minerals like apatite and xenotime through an ion-exchange process, terbium is known for its stability with its one natural isotope, terbium-159. This element was first identified by Carl Mosander in 1843 and continues to be of significant industrial relevance due to its catalytic properties.
