<p>An arc source macroparticle filter (1) includes a circular cathode (2) for emitting particles and an extended cylindrical anode (3) adjacent to and co-axial with the cathode for accelerating the emitted particles. Torroids (4) generate a magnetic field to define a continuous non-linear plasma duct (5) for directing charged particles and separating therefrom undesirable larger particles. The duct is minimally non-linear to permit high rates of charged particle transmission. Arc source filter (1) allows heating and/or the deposition of a variety of surface coatings to a workpiece (8). Also claimed is a method of producing vanadium dioxide.</p> |
