  • Methods of manufacturing large-area sputtering targets by cold spray
    Patent number: 8703233
    Abstract: In various embodiments, a joined sputtering target is formed by filling at least a portion of a gap between two discrete sputtering-target tiles with a gap-fill material, spray-depositing a spray material to form a partial joint, removing at least a portion of the gap-fill material, and, thereafter, spray-depositing the spray material to join the tiles.
