Abstract

Ion trajectories for a Sheet Plasma Negative Ion Source (SPNIS) were simulated to show how the addition of Samarium-cobalt (Sm-Co) magnets at the base of the extraction chamber would increase the sputtering yield of Titanium (Ti) ions and neutrals and deposition rate of Titanium nitride (TiN). It is demonstrated that the resulting magnetic field would alter ion trajectories such that there would be an increase in the amount of ions hitting the target, resulting to an enhancement of Ti sputtering yield and TiN deposition rate.
