  2. 1. Fundamentals of High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering

    Author : Johan Böhlmark; Ulf Helmersson; André Anders; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plasma; Pulsed plasma; High Power Pulsed Magnetron Sputtering; Plasma Characterization; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : In plasma assisted thin film growth, control over the energy and direction of the incoming species is desired. If the growth species are ionized this can be achieved by the use of a substrate bias or a magnetic field. Ions may be accelerated by an applied potential, whereas neutral particles may not.

    Author : Chunqing Huo; Nils Brenning; Svetlana Ratynskaia; James Bradley; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : HiPIMS, high power impulse magnetron sputtering, is a promising technology that has attracted a lot of attention ever since its appearance. A time-dependent plasma discharge model has been developed for the ionization region in HiPIMS discharges. READ MORE

  6. 4. High power impulse magnetron sputtering under industrial conditions

    Author : Mattias Samuelsson; Ulf Helmersson; Torbjörn Joelsson; Hans Högberg; Bengt Wälivaara; Tomáš Kubart; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the recent development step of magnetron sputtering, termed high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) has been studied. Compared to conventional magnetron sputtering HiPIMS provides a higher plasma density which can ionise the sputtered material. READ MORE
