Solar PVD Coatings

SCI Engineered Materials has over 20 years of experience manufacturing Zinc Oxide based targets such as Alumina doped Zinc Oxide (AZO) and other transparent conductive oxides (TCO’s) including ZnMgO and GZO for the Solar Coating Industry. Our product portfolio also includes Cr, Mo, ITO, MgF2, Ni, NiO, and PZT.

Monocrystalline Solar

Monocrystalline Solar

Electron flow is carried out by single crystal mechanisms in this method. Thin film applications in this sub-industry range from MEMS, MOSFETs, and other microelectronic applications.

Thin Film Solar

Thin Film Solar

Stacks, or layers of semiconducting materials facilitate the movement of electrons in thin film solar. Different combinations of existing materials along and new materials introduce exciting new possibilities for increasing effeciency and flexiablity of this type of solar cell. SCI Engineered Materials specalizes in servicing this industry through developing novel, sputterable semiconductors.

Polycrystalline Solar

Polycrystalline Solar

Harnessing the semiconducting properties of high-purity silicon, polycystalline solar cells use melted silicon to reduce the cost associated with single-crystal silicon growing, but retain the properties associated with silicon.

Target Materials for the Solar PVD Coating Industry

We employ manufacturing methods to produce targets in the geometry that best fits your needs. We can utilize our in-house capabilities to tailor a custom ceramic or metal solution to your coating needs. And if you are interested in a specific alloy for development, we can work with you to create a custom metal alloy as well. With Indium bonding capabilities for both planar and rotatable target assemblies up to 4 meters in length, we can accommodate your commercial target needs.  

If there are other materials you would like quoted please feel free to reach out to us for a quote! This is a small sample size of materials we can provide for Solar PVD coatings.
