rencontre entre frédéric mme arnoux Basic requirements for PVD/ sputtering to take place:
rencontre gratuite et anonyme- Power (Cathode/anode) -> plasma
- Gas (Ar), sometime air when contamination is not critical
- Deposition materials (Target)
- Vacuumn chamber (vacuum pump) -> also to prevent oxidation
aujourd'hui j ai rencontre l homme de ma vie High consumption are coming from foundries in CVD module (Endura tool), the materials or targets used are usually metals such as Al, Cu, Ti, W, TiN, Co..etc
https://www.orthodonticpartners.net/mirtyew/2485 Smaller (1~3″) and thinner disc foil targets are required from laboratories with sputtering coater. These coater deposits a very thin film over samples to be viewed in imaging tool such as SEM. The usual material that of these targets are conductive materials such as Au, Ag, C and Pt.
