Product Description
Ti Time supplies custom nickel copper sputtering targets, also known as NiCu sputtering targets, Ni-Cu targets or nickel copper alloy targets, for PVD coating, magnetron sputtering, electronic thin films, protective coatings, resistive films, conductive layers and functional thin film deposition.
Nickel copper targets are used to deposit NiCu alloy films with good corrosion resistance, stable electrical properties, good adhesion and functional coating performance. Different Ni/Cu ratios can be selected according to film design, electrical performance, corrosion resistance and sputtering process requirements.
Ti Time can provide planar NiCu targets, round NiCu targets, rectangular NiCu targets, rotary NiCu targets and custom-machined nickel copper targets according to customer drawings, samples or coating equipment requirements.

Nickel copper sputtering targets are used in vacuum coating systems to deposit nickel-copper alloy films. NiCu films are suitable for electronic components, protective films, conductive layers, resistive films, corrosion-resistant coatings and selected functional thin film applications.
Nickel contributes corrosion resistance, mechanical strength and film stability, while copper provides good electrical and thermal conductivity. By adjusting the Ni/Cu ratio, the film properties can be tuned for different coating requirements.
Ti Time focuses on stable alloy composition, controlled machining accuracy and flexible customization. We can support R&D coating trials, small-batch testing and production-size target supply.
