The HiPIMS Process

, 2010
The work presented in this thesis involves experimental and theoretical studies related to a thin film deposition technique called high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS), and more specifically the plasma properties and how they influence the coating. HiPIMS is an ionized physical vapor deposition technique based on conventional direct current

Insights into the copper HiPIMS discharge: deposition rate and ionised flux fraction

Plasma Sources Science and Technology, 2023
The influence of pulse length, working gas pressure, and peak discharge current density on the deposition rate and ionised flux fraction in high power impulse magnetron sputtering discharges of copper is investigated experimentally using a charge ...

A Laminating Strategy to Manyfold Enhance the Elastic Stretchability of Stretchable Electronics. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
We propose a laminating strategy that laminates a thick‐polymer layer onto the thin‐ribbon metallic structure. Using serpentine structures on soft and hard substrates as representative cases, this approach increases elastic stretchability by 3.5‐fold and 2.3‐fold.

Enhanced Oxygen-Reaction Electrocatalysis and Corrosion Resistance of CoCrFeNi Thin Films by Tuned Microstructure and Surface Oxidation. [PDF]

Small Sci
This work presents CoCrFeNi thin films, synthesized by physical vapor deposition as bifunctional oxygen electrocatalysts that are corrosion resistant in alkaline conditions. The film microstructure is tuned by ion acceleration (substrate bias) during deposition and the film's surfaces are oxidized electrochemically by anodization.

HiPIMS AlTiN Coatings

, 2015
AlTiN is a promising anti-oxidation and corrosion protective material. Thanks to the formation of a coherent, compact and adherent alumina scale, it can be applied in harsh environments. In this work, the intrinsic properties of AlTiN films produced by reactive High Power Impulse Magnetron Sputtering (HiPIMS) have been investigated.

Titanium Nitride Coatings on CoCrMo and Ti6Al4V Alloys: Effects on Wear and Ion Release [PDF]

Lubricants
While titanium nitride (TiN) coatings are well known for their biocompatibility and excellent mechanical properties, their wear particle and debris release in orthopedic implants remains a matter of active investigation. This study addresses the efficacy

Improving the crystallinity and texture of oblique-angle-deposited AlN thin films using reactive synchronized HiPIMS [PDF]

Surface & Coatings Technology, 2023
Many technologies require highly-oriented and textured functional thin films. The most common synthe-sis approaches use on-axis sputter geometries. However, in some scenarios, on-axis sputtering is not feasible.
