Molybdenum Boats for Thermal Evaporation
Molybdenum (Mo) Boats
Molybdenum boats are important components used in physical vapor deposition (PVD) processes, especially thermal evaporation techniques. These boats serve as crucibles or vessels to contain and evaporate solid source materials, allowing thin films to be deposited onto substrates.
Molybdenum boats used in thermal evaporation processes can be classified based on several factors, including their shape, size, and specific application requirements. The following are the classifications of molybdenum boats:
• According to different shapes, molybdenum boats are round, rectangular, square and trapezoidal;
• According to different processing methods, molybdenum boats can be divided into stamping boats, folding boats, welding boats, and riveting boats;
• According to different materials, it can be divided into pure molybdenum boats, molybdenum-lanthanum boats, molybdenum-zirconium-titanium boats, molybdenum-rhenium boats, tungsten-molybdenum boats, etc.

Application
Molybdenum boats have a variety of applications in industries that use thermal evaporation processes for thin film deposition. Some common applications include semiconductor manufacturing, optics and photonics, surface modification and functional coatings, thin film research and development, materials science and engineering, solar cell and photovoltaic industry, decorative and functional coatings, etc.
Molybdenum Boat Shape Selection
Flat groove molybdenum boat | Suitable for high wettability materials. |
The v-shaped groove molybdenum boat | Suitable for materials with less wettability. |
Oval grooved molybdenum boat | Suitable for materials in a molten state. |
Spherical groove molybdenum boat | Suitable for expensive materials such as gold and silver. |
Narrow slot molybdenum boat | This design prevents the vapor deposition material from sticking to the filament clip. |
