DC Magnetron Sputtering
DC (Direct Current) Sputtering is a thin film coating technique where a target material to be used as the coating is bombarded with ionized gas molecules, causing atoms to be sputtered off into the plasma. These vaporized atoms are then deposited and condense as a thin film on the substrate to be coated. DC Sputtering is the most basic and inexpensive type of sputtering system for PVD-based metal deposition and electrically conductive target coating materials. Two major advantages of DC as a power source for this process are that it is easy to control and is a low-cost option if you are doing metal deposition for coating.
