1. Plasma Characterization & Thin Film Growth and Analysis in Highly Ionized Magnetron Sputtering
Sammanfattning : The present thesis addresses two research areas related to film growth in a highly ionized magnetron sputtering system: plasma characterization, and thin film growth and analysis. The deposition technique used is called high power pulsed magnetron sputtering (HPPMS). LÄS MER
2. Fundamentals of High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering
Sammanfattning : In plasma assisted thin film growth, control over the energy and direction of the incoming species is desired. If the growth species are ionized this can be achieved by the use of a substrate bias or a magnetic field. Ions may be accelerated by an applied potential, whereas neutral particles may not. LÄS MER
3. Thin Film Growth using Pulsed and Highly Ionized Vapor Fluxes
Sammanfattning : Microstructure and morphology of thin films are decisive for many of their resulting properties. To be able to tailor these properties, and thus the film functionality, a fundamental understanding of thin film growth needs to be acquired. LÄS MER
4. The effect of extreme power densities applied to a planar magnetron
Sammanfattning : In plasma assisted thin film growth control over the energy and direction of the incoming species is desired. If the growth species are ionized this can be achieved by the use of a substrate bias. ions may be accelerated by an applied potential, whereas neutral particles may not. LÄS MER
5. Fundamental processes in thin film growth : The origin of compressive stress and the dynamics of the early growth stages
Sammanfattning : The fundamental mechanisms behind the generation of compressive stresses in polycrystalline thin films, the effects of pulsed deposition fluxes on the dynamics of the early growth stages as well as the generation of energetic Ar+ ions in high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) discharges has been studied in this thesis.It was found that compressive film stresses in Mo films deposited using energetic vapor fluxes are correlated with high film densities while only a slight lattice expansion compared to relaxed Mo was found.
