Abstract:
A method of magnetron sputtering, comprises rotating a magnet of a magnetron with an angular frequency ω, and, during sputtering of material from a source of the magnetron onto a substrate, periodically modulating a power level applied to the source with at least a component comprising a frequency f which is a harmonic of the angular frequency ω of rotation of the magnet other than the first harmonic.
