METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING WORKPIECES WITH ION-ETCHED SURFACE
摘要
Planetary carriers for workpieces mounted on a carousel are provided within a vacuum chamber. A source for a cloud comprising ions is provided so that a central axis of the cloud intercepts the rotary axis of the carousel. The cloud has an ion density profile at the moving path of planetary axes which drops to 50% of the maximum ion density at a distance from the addressed center axis which is at most half the diameter of the planetary carriers. When workpieces upon the planetary carriers are etched by the cloud comprising ions material which is etched off is substantially not redeposited on neighboring planetary carriers but rather ejected towards the wall of the vacuum chamber.
