Corrosion behaviour of multilayer CrN coatings deposited by hybrid HIPIMS after oxidation treatment

open access: yesNanotechnology Reviews, 2020
Chromium nitride coatings prepared by physical vapour deposition (PVD) show high hardness, high strength and good thermal conductivity, which makes them useful for cutting and forming tools. In this article, the microstructure and corrosion resistance of

Room Temperature Deposition of Nanocrystalline SiC Thin Films by DCMS/HiPIMS Co-Sputtering Technique

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2022
Due to an attractive combination of chemical and physical properties, silicon carbide (SiC) thin films are excellent candidates for coatings to be used in harsh environment applications or as protective coatings in heat exchanger applications.

Hardware and power management for high power impulse magnetron sputtering

open access: yes, 2019
The work that led to the development of the HiPIMS technique was initiated at the Moscow Engineering and Physics Institute (MEPhI) in the late 1960s, where high power pulses were applied to diode sputter sources.

Effect of atomic ordering on the magnetic anisotropy of single crystal Ni80Fe20

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2019
We investigate the effect of atomic ordering on the magnetic anisotropy of Ni80Fe20 at.% (Py). To this end, Py films were grown epitaxially on MgO(001) using dc magnetron sputtering (dcMS) and high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS).

Reactive high power impulse magnetron sputtering

open access: yes, 2019
Reactive magnetron sputtering is essential in many industrial processes where it is applied to deposit compound films or coatings. Reactive sputtering is attractive because a range of compounds can be prepared from a low-cost metal target by addition of ...

Physics of high power impulse magnetron sputtering discharges

open access: yes, 2019
The most striking difference between HiPIMS and other magnetron sputtering discharges, in terms of the plasma process itself, lies in the high-power discharge pulses applied and the large discharge currents generated.

Introduction to magnetron sputtering

open access: yes, 2019
Plasma-based physical vapor deposition (PVD) methods have found widespread use in various industrial applications. In plasma-based PVD processes, the deposition species are either vaporized by thermal evaporation or by sputtering from a source (the ...

Direct metallization of polymers: The HiPIMS effect on early thin film growth

open access: yesNano Trends
The metallization of polymers is essential for developing flexible electronics, yet precise control over metal film growth remains challenging. This study demonstrates the effect of high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) markedly influencing ...
