Nickel Oxide Target market size, share & industry analysis, By Type (Plane Target, Rotating Target), By End-Use (Automobile Industry, Solar Energy Industry, Display Industry, Others) and regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Target is a material that is used to create a thin layer in a technique called as sputter deposition or film deposition. While carrying out this process, the target material which starts as a solid is further broken by gaseous ions in small particles which is used to coat or spray any substrate or surface. This is generally used to create semiconductor and computer chips and hence target materials are generally metallic elements or alloys. Targets are generally circular or rectangular in shape, but size and shape can vary as per the requirements. The effectiveness of the target material depends upon various factors like the composition and types of ions used to breakdown the material.

The increasing adoption of nickel oxide target for metallization of solar cells shall foster the market growth. The enhanced performance of solar cell on deposition of nickel or solder metallization shall create a positive impact on the demand for nickel oxide target. Additionally, the demand from semi-conductor industries for manufacturing microchips, memory chips, flat panel displays, print heads and other shall drive the market.

However, nickel oxide particles are green in color and highly toxic in nature. Prolonged exposure can cause allergic skin reaction and possible damage to organs. The toxic nature of nickel oxide is expected to hinder the market growth.
