Advanced Conductive Oxide Material for Thin-Film and Semiconductor Research
Cell Lab 3N Titanium Monoxide (TiO) Evaporation Materials are high-purity inorganic compounds supplied in both pieces and tablet forms, ideal for thin-film deposition, microelectronics, and optical coating applications. Titanium monoxide exhibits low electrical resistivity and excellent thermal stability. Its defect rock-salt crystal structure allows for conductivity and diffusion barrier efficiency, making it particularly useful in layered semiconductor structures. With growing interest in visible-light absorption, TiO is also emerging as a promising material in optoelectronic and photocatalytic research.
High Electrical Conductivity – Functions as a stable diffusion barrier against Al and Si interdiffusion in microelectronic devices.
Excellent Thermal and Chemical Stability – Retains structural integrity and purity under high vacuum and temperature.
Dual-Form Availability – Supplied in 3–6 mm pieces and 8–9 mm tablets for flexible research and industrial setups.
Versatile Thin-Film Applications – Suitable for TiO-based coatings, diffusion barriers, and optoelectronic devices.
Customisable Options – Dimensions, form factor, and purity can be adjusted upon request for R&D or bulk production.

Q1: What makes Titanium Monoxide unique among titanium oxides?
TiO is a conductive suboxide with a defect rock-salt structure, offering both metallic and ceramic characteristics—unlike TiO₂, which is an insulator.
Q2: Can TiO be used in microelectronic diffusion barriers?
Yes. Its low resistivity and thermal stability make it an effective diffusion barrier between Al and Si layers.
Q3: What forms are available for purchase?
Both 3–6 mm pieces and 8–9 mm × 6–7 mm tablets are offered, in 50 g or 100 g packs.
Q4: Are larger or purer versions available?
Yes. Cell Lab provides custom dimensions and purity grades upon request for R&D and industrial-scale applications.
