摘要 |
The present invention discloses technology for thin film ion beam sputter deposition on a substrate. The apparatus is a self-contained ion beam deposition source, which can be attached to or positioned inside of a vacuum chamber where substrates are located. This source consists of one or more ion beam sources combined with one or more sputtering targets and a unified magnetic field acting as a devise controlling delivery of the charged particles to the treated by the Iontron workpiece (substrate). The ion beam emits ion beams toward the target that generate sputtered particles directed toward the substrate, thus creating a thin film on the surface of the substrate. The target can be electrically biased, not biased or floating, thus allowing for modulation of the location upon which the charged ions impinge the target. Additionally, the position of the target can be adjusted relatively to the ion beam.
