The application of high-purity gadolinium Gd in the field of optical glass is also of great significance. adoptMagnetron Sputtering Coating TechnologyUniformly coating high-purity gadolinium Gd on the surface of glass can improve the anti reflection, anti-wear, and anti-corrosion functions of optical glass.

2、 Standards and characteristics of high-purity metal gadolinium (H-Gd)

2.1 Standards for High Purity Gadolinium Metal (H-Gd)

The standards for high-purity metal gadolinium (H-Gd) mainly include two aspects: Gd/TREM (Total Rare Earth Metal) ≥ 99.99% and TREM ≥ 99.95. In addition, the total content of rare earth and non rare earth impurities less than 500ppm is also an important criterion for measuring high-purity gadolinium Gd.

2.2 Characteristics of high-purity metal gadolinium (H-Gd)

High purity metal gadolinium (H-Gd) has the following characteristics: high purity, low content of rare earth and non rare earth impurities, and stable and reliable quality. These characteristics make it widely used in the fields of magnetic materials and optical glass, and have extremely high practical value.

3、 Standards and characteristics of ultra-high purity gadolinium metal (UH Gd)

3.1 Standards for Ultra High Purity Gadolinium Metal (UH Gd)

Ultra high purity gadolinium metal (UH-Gd) requires higher purity compared to high-purity gadolinium metal (H-Gd). Its standards mainly include two aspects: Gd/TREM ≥ 99.999% and TREM ≥ 99.95%. In addition, ultra-high purity metal gadolinium (UH Gd) requires a total content of less than 100ppm for 75 impurities (including gas impurities C, N, O, S), and the absolute purity of metal Gd needs to exceed 99.99 wt.%.

3.2 Characteristics of Ultra High Purity Gadolinium Metal (UH Gd)

Ultra high purity gadolinium metal (UH-Gd) has lower impurity content, higher purity, and better performance compared to high-purity gadolinium metal (H-Gd). This makes ultra-high purity metal gadolinium (UH Gd) more valued in fields such as electronic component manufacturing, and can be applied in situations where impurity requirements are extremely strict.

4、 Application of Magnetron Sputtering Technology in High Purity Gadolinium Gd Coating

4.1 Basic principles of magnetron sputtering technology

Magnetron sputtering technology is a commonly used physical vapor deposition technique that utilizes the principles of magnetic field and ion bombardment to deposit a thin film of solid gadolinium target atoms onto the substrate surface through sputtering, thereby achieving the goal of high-purity gadolinium Gd coating.

4.2 Advantages of Magnetron Sputtering Technology

Magnetron sputtering technology has the following advantages: simple and easy preparation process, good adhesion and density of thin films, ability to control the thickness and composition of thin films, and the ability to achieve high-purity coating. This makes magnetron sputtering technology an effective way to prepare high-purity gadolinium Gd coatings.

Conclusion: Through magnetron sputtering technologyHigh purity gadolinium Gd coatingSignificant progress has been made in this regard. The application of high-purity metal gadolinium (H-Gd) and ultra-high purity metal gadolinium (UH-Gd) provides a stable and reliable foundation for the technological development in various fields. I believe that with the continuous advancement of technology, the application of high-purity gadolinium Gd coating in more fields will be further expanded, and a purer future will be created.
