Copper Oxide (CuO) Sputtering Target

Copper oxide (CuO) sputtering targets enable precise thin-film deposition for cutting-edge research and industrial applications:

CuO is a typical p-type semiconductor, and it has many remarkable properties, for example: catalytic activity, 

optoelectronic properties, high stability, ease of access, and antibacterial activity. CuO has a large absorption of 

solar spectrum and thus can be used as an ideal absorption material in solar cells because its optical absorption 

edge ranging between 1.2 and 1.9 eV has a good match with the solar spectrum. CuO is stable under exposure to 

various gases, and relatively low changes of base resistivity were observed. It is a less expensive technology than 

rare materials used in gas-sensing applications. Therefore, it has been utilized in various applications, 

including: solar energy cells, optoelectronics, catalysis, biosensors, photoelectrochemical sensors, supercapacitors, 

lithium ion batteries, infrared photo detectors, electrochemical sensors, and gas sensors.
