Hysteresis-free reactive high power impulse magnetron sputtering
High power impulse magnetron sputtering (HIPIMS) of an Al target in Ar/O2 mixtures has been studied. The use of HIPIMS is shown to drastically influence the process characteristics compared to conventional sputtering. Under suitable conditions, oxide formation on the target as the reactive gas flow is increased is suppressed, and the hysteresis effect commonly observed as the gas flow is varied...

متن کاملUnderstanding deposition rate loss in high power impulse magnetron sputtering
The lower deposition rate for high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) compared to direct current magnetron sputtering for the same average power is often reported as a drawback. The often invoked reason is back-attraction of ionized sputtered material to the target, due to a substantial negative potential profile from the location of ionization towards the cathode. Emitting and swept L...

متن کاملEnergy flux measurements in high power impulse magnetron sputtering
The total energy flux in a high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) plasma has been measured using thermal probes. Radial flux (parallel to the magnetron surface) as well as axial flux (perpendicular to the magnetron surface) were measured at different positions, and resulting energy flux profiles for the region between the magnetron and the substrate are presented. It was found that th...
