ITO0491 Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) Sputtering Targets

Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) Sputtering Targets Description

Indium tin oxide (ITO) is a solid solution of indium oxide (In2O3) and tin oxide (SnO2), typically 90% In2O3, 10% SnO2 by weight. Indium tin oxide (ITO) is one of the most widely used transparent conducting oxides due to its electrical conductivity and optical transparency. Thin films of indium tin oxide are most commonly deposited on surfaces by physical vapour deposition (PVD). 

ITO is often used to produce transparent conductive coatings for displays such as liquid crystal displays, flat panel displays, plasma displays, touch panels, and electronic ink applications. ITO thin films are utilised in organic light-emitting diodes, solar cells, antistatic coatings, and EMI shieldings; ITO serves as the anode in organic light-emitting diodes.

Furthermore, ITO is also employed for various optical coatings, most notably infrared-reflecting coatings (hot mirrors) for automotive applications, and sodium vapour lamp glasses.

ITO thin film strain gauges can operate at temperatures up to 1 400 °C and can be used in harsh environments, such as gas turbines, jet engines, and rocket engines.

As a transparent conductor for LCDs, the primary advantage of ITO compared to other materials (AZO, for example) is the ability of ITO to be precisely etched into fine patterns.
