Remote Plasma Source

Remote Plasma Source for sputtering, etching or plasma treatments

Enhanced deposition parameters without the expense of buying a complete new system.

Enabling High Target Utilisation Sputtering (HiTUS®), invented by Plasma Quest's CEO, Professor Mike Thwaites. 






Features

Remotely generated plasma

- Does not require target bias to strike a plasma

- Enables new coatings

Plasma independent from target

Additional process parameters

Integrate into your existing system

Upgrade your existing system(s) more affordably; integrate the remote plasma source into your existing system or cluster tool

High target utilisation

- Achieves higher quality, uniform coatings

- Reducing waste and cost


HiTUS® - High Target Utilisation Sputtering
Plasma Quest's Remote Plasma Source enables the revolutionary HiTUS® technique, achieving 90% utilisation of material compared to conventional magnetron sputtering which achieves only 40% utilisation of material.

This brings huge material and cost savings (no racetrack).
