Application

Sputtering is a process whereby atoms are ejected from a solid target material due to bombardment of the target by energetic particles. The extreme miniaturization of components in the semiconductor and electronics industry requires high purity sputtering targets for thin film deposition.

The molybdenum enzymes 4-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA reductase and pyrogallol-phloroglucinol transhydroxylase and the tungsten enzyme acetylene hydratase catalyze reductive dehydroxylation reactions, i.e., transhydroxylation between phenolic residues and the addition of water to a triple bond. Such activities are unusual for this class of
