Boris Sorokov has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Sputtering method and apparatus for depositing a coating onto substrate
    Publication number: 20020148941
    Abstract: Sputtering method and apparatus for depositing a coating onto substrate employs variable magnetic field arranged in vicinity of a cathode within a working chamber, filled with ionizable fluid. By controlling a magnetic field topology, i.e. orientation and value of magnetic strength with respect to cathode there is enabled localization and shifting of plasma away from substrate and by thus improvement of adhesion and properties of deposited coatings.
    Type: Application
