xCell Lab 2N7 (99.7%) Vanadium (V) Pellets Evaporation Material
High-Purity Metal for Thin-Film Deposition and Alloy Engineering
General Description
Cell Lab 2N7 (99.7%) Vanadium (V) Pellets are precision-refined metallic evaporation materials designed for vacuum deposition, alloy strengthening, and oxide film formation. Vanadium is a hard, silvery-grey transition metal known for its excellent corrosion resistance, malleability, and ability to form high-strength alloys.
In thin-film applications, Vanadium is typically evaporated in an oxygen-rich environment to form vanadium oxide coatings — critical in solar cells, catalysts, and electrochromic devices. Its high melting point and stable thermal conductivity make it a preferred choice in demanding high-temperature environments such as aerospace components, nuclear reactors, and precision instruments.

FAQ
Q1: What makes Vanadium ideal for solar cell thin films?
Vanadium forms stable oxide layers (VO₂, V₂O₅) that exhibit excellent optical and electrochromic properties for solar energy and smart-window applications.
Q2: Can Vanadium be used with an E-beam evaporator?
Yes, it’s highly compatible with E-beam systems, producing clean, stable films with minimal spatter when used with tungsten crucible liners.
Q3: Is Vanadium corrosion-resistant?
Yes. Vanadium’s natural oxide layer protects it from air and moisture, enhancing durability in reactive atmospheres.
Q4: Can Cell Lab customise purity or pellet size?
Absolutely. We offer customised purity grades (up to 4N) and bespoke geometries for specific R&D or industrial setups.
