Title:
LARGE ELECTRIC POWER PULSED MAGNETRON SPUTTERING METHOD AND LARGE ELECTRIC POWER ELECTRIC ENERGY SOURCE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2010031359
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide a magnetic acceleration large electric power sputtering method with which an ionization degree is increased, simultaneously, a positive charge is removed from the surface of a target, the heating of the target is prevented, and further, the utilization rate of a target material is increased.

In the large electric power pulsed magnetron sputtering method with which, in a process chamber, the composite discharge pulse of a certain sequence is generated, and sputtering gas is ionized, the composite discharge pulse includes a large electric power sputtering pulse (10) which is applied during a first pulse time (1) and a small electric power charge removal pulse (11) removing a charge on a target which is applied during a second pulse time (2), and the ratio (1/2) of the first pulse time (1) to the second pulse time (2) is 0.5 at the maximum.
