Title:
ARC EVAPORATION DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004051695
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to an arc evaporation device comprising a target, which serves as a cathode and which is enclosed by a housing that forms the anode. The aim of the invention is to achieve a uniform evaporation of the target material. To achieve this, several electrically conductive second connections (84, 86) originate from the housing, said connections being linked by a second conductor (74), the latter fixing an envelope, whose geometry corresponds to the envelope of the target or that of a first conductor (72), which links the electric connections (76, 78) of the target. First and second conductors (72, 74) are connected to the poles (80, 88) of a voltage source (82).
