PHYSICAL VAPOR DEPOSITION REACTOR WITH CIRCULARLY SYMMETRIC RF FEED AND DC FEED TO THE SPUTTER TARGET

摘要

In a PVD reactor having a sputter target at the ceiling, a conductive housing enclosing the rotating magnet assembly has a central port for the rotating magnet axle. A conductive hollow cylinder of the housing surrounds an external portion of the spindle. RF power is coupled to a radial RF connection rod extending radially from the hollow cylinder. DC power is coupled to another radial DC connection rod extending radially from the hollow cylinder.
