About Magnesium Gadolinium Foil

American Elements manufactures high purity Magnesium-gadolinium alloy foils in numerous dimensions. Standard metal and alloy foil thicknesses range from 0.003" to approximately 2mm; materials can also be rolled down as thin as 0.001" for use as an evaporation source in microelectronics, optics, magnetics, MEMS, and hard resistant coatings. Piece sizes are available up to approximately 7" maximum width. Maximum lengths of about 20" can be obtained with a nominal thickness between about 0.005" and 0.020" for thin film deposition on glass or metal substrates. We also manufacture magnesium-gadolinium foil in other forms such as sputtering target as well as other rare earth alloy products.
