PVD-ARC-Systems need reliable Shielding from uncontrolled Electron Beams

Insulating PVD parts must possess high dielectric strength

In PVD systems a particular solid material – the so called target – is vaporised and then deposited by condensation onto a substrate. This can be achieved by several methodologies. In the ARC process the target is vaporised by means of a high energy voltaic arc. Since this electron beam is unguided, insulating shrouds and other shielding components are required to keep it on target and prevent equipment damage.

A further area that needs to be addressed with all PVD and plasma systems is unwanted metal deposition on the walls and on other equipments of the vacuum chamber.

HeBoSint® has become the industry standard in PVD and plasma technology equipment

PVD and ARC parts like insulating shrouds and strips made from HeBoSint®, HENZE´s sintered Boron Nitride, reliably constrain the voltaic arc within the necessary limits. This high temperature ceramic material is to be found in nearly all PVD-ARC units the world over.

Owing to its durability, which is superior to that of glass bonded mica, HeBoSint® is also becoming the material of choice for sub frames in PVD systems and PVD spare parts.
