Reversing orientation of sputtering screen to avoid contamination

A sputtering apparatus deposits a layer of material on a substrate. The apparatus includes a screening member, such as a plate collimator or a tube collimator, located between the target and substrate. A motor drive reverses the respective positions of the two opposite sides of the screening device...

More Information
Summary:A sputtering apparatus deposits a layer of material on a substrate. The apparatus includes a screening member, such as a plate collimator or a tube collimator, located between the target and substrate. A motor drive reverses the respective positions of the two opposite sides of the screening device which respectively face the substrate and the target.
