摘要： Process and apparatus for pre-treatment of a substrate surface in a vacuum by a glow discharge for a subsequent coating process in a vacuum. The process includes maintaining a low pressure glow discharge between the substrate to be pre-treated and a counter-electrode, where the counter-electrode composed of at least a component of the coating to be deposited in the vacuum coating process. The process also includes periodically alternating a polarity of the substrate to act as a cathode or as an anode of the low pressure glow discharge, and individually controlling at least one of pulse length and discharge voltage in both polarities. A frequency of alternation of the polarity is set within a range of between 1 Hz and 1000 kHz. The apparatus includes an evacuatable vacuum chamber, a substrate holder positioned to hold a substrate to be pre-treated, at least one counter-electrode, and an alternating voltage generator coupled to the substrate to be pre-treated and the at least one counter-electrode. The substrate and the counter-electrode are mounted in a potential-free manner.

摘要： A process an device for ion-supported vacuum coating. The process and the affiliated device is intended to permit the high-rate ating of large-surfaced, electrically conductive and electrically insulating substrates with electrically insulating and electrically conductive coatings with relatively low expenditure. The substrates are predominantly band-shaped, in particular plastic sheets with widths of over a meter. According to the invention, in an intrinsically known device for vacuum coating, alternating negative and positive voltage pulses are applied to the electrically conductive substrate or in electrically insulating substrates, to an electrode disposed directly behind them, e.g. the cooling roller, relative to the plasma or to an electrode that is disposed almost at plasma potential. The form, the voltage, and the duration of the pulses are adapted to the coating task and the material. The process is used particularly for depositing abrasion protection, corrosion protection, and barrier coatings. The user is the packaging industry, among others.

摘要： Device for the vacuum coating of mass produced products. By means of the ice small parts, such as screws and bolts, as mass produced products are highly productively coated by vacuum deposition or sputtering, also under plasma action. In a container is located a drum rotatable at high speed about its horizontal axis and in which the parts to be coated are fixed to the inner wall by centrifugal force. The surface of the inner wall is geometrically constructed such that the parts to be coated are reliably held and moved with it. The coating devices are located in the drum. A stripping device, whose spacing with respect to the inner wall is adjustable at programmable time intervals, is located in the drum and has an abutment surface directed opposite to the rotation direction.

摘要： Magnetron discharges are pulse-operated to avoid the so-called “arcing”. In the case of magnetron discharges from alternating current-fed magnetrons, the process is limited to the minor power of the energy supply because of the load-carrying capacity of the required electric components. When the magnetron discharges are fed by direct current, their effectiveness deteriorates because of the deposition of layers on the anode surfaces. The new process should enable a high supply power and prevent arcing. In magnetron discharges with at least two magnetron electrodes, the energy is supplied in such a way that at least one magnetron electrode is a cathode or anode and a number n1 of direct current pulses of said polarity is supplied. The poles of at least one magnetron electrode are then reversed and a number n2 of direct currents of this polarity are supplied. The process is carried on in this manner, the frequency of the direct current pulses being higher than that of the polarity reversals. The energy supply effectiveness is thus improved. This process and system enable the production of layers having the most different properties, for example for the glass, packaging, electronic, and machine construction industries.

摘要： A process and circuit for the bipolar pulse-shaped feeding of energy into low-pressure plasmas is provided. Within an average time period, a power which is to be as high as possible is to be fed into the low pressure discharge. In each polarization, the same power is to be fed although the impedance differs considerably. In a system for plasma and surface treatment techniques having at least two electrodes and one power supply, the outputs of at least two potential-free direct current supplies are switched such that an output of one direct current supply is conductively connected with an output of the same polarity of the other direct current supply. By means of a switch which is connected with each feed line to the electrodes and whose other outputs are led in a combined manner to the other outputs of the direct current source, these switches are operated via a timing generator in synchronism with the pole changing frequency. The switches are opened up in the event of the occurrence of an arcing. The process is used for the bipolar pulse sputtering for depositing electrically insulating layers on workpieces. Preferably, such layers are used for a mechanical protection, protection against wear and the improvement of sliding characteristics.
