ARC-TYPE EVAPORATION SOURCE

摘要

Provided is an arc evaporation source equipped with a target, a ring-shaped magnetic field guide magnet and a back side magnetic field generation source. The magnetic field guide magnet is aligned in a direction perpendicular to the evaporation face of the target and has a polarity that is the magnetization direction facing forward or backward. The back side magnetic field generation source is disposed at the rear of the magnetic field guide magnet, which is at the side of the back side of the target, and forms magnetic force lines running in the direction of magnetization of the magnetic field guide magnet. The target is disposed such that the evaporation face is positioned in front of the magnetic field guide magnet.
