  • Patent number: 9892889
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a roll-to-roll hybrid plasma modular coating system, which comprises: at least one arc plasma processing unit, at least one magnetron sputtering plasma processing unit, a metallic film and at least one substrate feeding unit. Each of the arc plasma processing unit is formed with a first chamber and an arc plasma source. Each of the magnetron sputtering plasma processing unit is formed with a second chamber and at least one magnetron sputtering plasma source. The metallic film is disposed in the arc plasma processing unit to avoid chamber wall being deposited by the arc plasma source; There are at least one arc plasma processing unit, at least one magnetron sputtering plasma processing unit and at least one winding/unwinding unit connected in series to lay at least one thin layer by arc plasma deposition or by magnetron sputtering plasma onto substrate material.

  • Patent number: 9741541
    Abstract: A high frequency plasma apparatus includes a reaction chamber, a first electrode, a second electrode, and a plurality of feed points located at one of the two electrodes at least. The feed points are used to simultaneously generate a first standing wave and a second standing wave, with different temporal and spatial patterns. By adjusting amplitudes of the two standing waves and the temporal and spatial phase differences between the two standing waves appropriately, plasma uniformity of the high frequency plasma apparatus can be effectively improved.

  • Publication number: 20110192348
    Abstract: An RF hollow cathode plasma source consists of a vacuum chamber, a pipe, a hollow cathode, at least two compartments, a conduit and input electrodes. The pipe is inserted into the chamber for introducing working gas into the chamber. The hollow cathode is disposed in the chamber and formed with a large number of apertures. At least two compartments are located below the hollow cathode. Each of the compartments includes small apertures for uniformly spreading the working gas into the apertures of the hollow cathode. The conduit is disposed along two sides of the hollow cathode to circulate cooling water around the hollow cathode. The plural input power leads are arranged near the hollow cathode. The input power leads, the pipe and the conduits are connected to the hollow cathode though the electrically-insulated walls of the grounded vacuum chamber.

  • Publication number: 20100225234
    Abstract: A hollow-cathode plasma generator includes a plurality of hollow cathodes joined together and connected to a power supply for generating plasma in vacuum. Each of the hollow cathodes includes at least one fillister defined therein, a fin formed on a side of the fillister, an air-circulating tunnel in communication with the fillister and a coolant-circulating tunnel defined therein. The fillister is used to contain working gas. The fin receives negative voltage from the power supply for ionizing the working gas to generate the plasma and spread the plasma in a single direction. The working gas travels into the fillister from the air-circulating tunnel. The coolant-circulating tunnel is used to circulate coolant for cooling the hollow cathode.
