Optimization of a PIII&D system using a cathodic arc with titanium

A plasma immersion ion implantation and deposition (PIII&D) system was recently built at INFIP. A dc cathodic arc with a Ti cathode of 5 cm in diameter and an annular anode of 8cm in diameter was employed as the plasma source. The substrate chamber was electrically insulated and connected with t...
