“…Macroparticle contamination and plasma filtering Contamination is severe without filtering, less with poisoned cathodes (e.g. surface oxidized), acceptable for some applications like hard coatings on tools [278,279]; optical and other applications require filtered arcs [245,280,281].…”

High power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) has been in the center of attention over the last years as it is an emerging physical vapor deposition (PVD) technology that combines advantages of magnetron sputtering with various forms of energetic deposition of films such as ion plating and cathodic arc plasma deposition. It should not come at a surprise that many extension and variations of HiPIMS make use, intentionally or unintentionally, of previously discovered approaches to film processing such as substrate surface preparation by metal ion sputtering and phased biasing for film texture and stress control. Therefore, in this review, an overview is given on some historical developments and features of cathodic arc and HiPIMS plasmas, showing commonalities and differences. To limit the scope, emphasis is put on plasma properties, as opposed to surveying the vast literature on specific film materials and their properties.

Manufacturing technology must ensure the production of parts with required characteristics: dimensional accuracy, overall strength, and surface quality. The surface layers in metal forming generally remain at the surface. The quality of the deformed surface is therefore determined by the initial surface and the history of the various forming processes undergone. Surface roughness influences surface quality and wear of metal forming products. Pin-on-disc tests at a range of temperatures were employed to study the influence of die coatings on the surface quality of a two-phase brass alloy during forging operation. The pins were made in H13 hot work tool steel and given duplex surface treatments including plasma nitriding and physical vapor deposition (PVD) coatings. The discs were machined from CuZn38Pb2 forging brass. Mechanical properties, surface roughness, and compositional properties of pins were determined by nanoindentaion, two-dimensional profilometer, and scanning electron microscopy equipped with energy-dispersive X-ray detector, respectively. At 25°C, wear track parameters were more affected by the changes in Young's modulus and the surface roughness of the pins. At 250°C, the highest tendency to adhesion was observed in H13 steel pin. At 700°C, oxidation of the pins influenced the wear track parameters on the discs. R a parameters inside the wear tracks were constant at 25 and 250°C, but R ku parameters were maximum for the wear tracks of disc in contact with plasma nitriding and H13 pins at 25 and 250°C, respectively. At 700°C, the lowest surface quality was for the disc in contact with H13 steel pin. It was concluded that in forging process of brass alloys, the surface quality and deformation behavior of workpiece were improved by applied PVD coating on the surface of the die.

“…In contrast to MS methods, the arc plasma can be created by the cathode spots with a extremely high areal power density (on the order of 10 13 W/m 2 ) in CAPE technique, leading to a high deposition rate, high degree of ionization, ion kinetic energies in the range of 10-100 eV, and multiple charge states [13]. The CAPE technique is a high current density and low voltage process, in which a cloud of positive ions near the cathode surface establish a potential barrier of a few tens of volts [14], providing an appropriate kinetic energy of ions to enhance the thin film properties, which are similar to those obtained with ion beam assisted deposition.…”
