Durable Vacuum Coating Materials Designed to Improve Wear Resistance and Corrosion Protection in Multiple Industries
Product Details
Product Description
Ti Time supplies custom niobium sputtering targets, also known as Nb sputtering targets or niobium targets, for PVD coating, magnetron sputtering, superconducting thin films, semiconductor-related thin film deposition, optical coating and functional coating applications.
Niobium is a silver-gray refractory metal with good ductility, high melting point, corrosion resistance and stable physical properties. Niobium sputtering targets are used to deposit niobium films and niobium-based thin films where conductivity, corrosion resistance, superconducting properties or special functional performance are required.
Ti Time can provide round niobium targets, rectangular niobium targets, planar targets, rotary targets and custom-machined niobium targets according to customer drawings, samples or coating equipment requirements.

Niobium sputtering targets are used in vacuum coating systems to deposit niobium films and niobium-based thin films. Due to niobium’s high melting point, good ductility, corrosion resistance and low neutron absorption characteristics, niobium materials are widely used in superconducting materials, electronic thin films, functional coatings, special alloys, medical devices and selected nuclear-related applications.
In thin film deposition, niobium targets can be used for superconducting films, corrosion-resistant films, optical coating layers, electronic components and research coating systems.
Ti Time focuses on stable material quality, controlled machining accuracy and flexible customization. We can support both small-batch testing and production-size target supply.
