  • Process and switching arrangement for pulsing energy introduction into magnetron discharges
    Patent number: 6522076
    Abstract: Process and control arrangement for introducing pulsing energy introduction into magnetron discharges. The process includes feeding a charge to the electrodes of a magnetron arrangement via a ignition source at a time t0, and, after the feeding of the electric charge, determining an ignition of the magnetron discharge. The process also includes introducing a current, having a predetermined value, from a boost source at a time t1, and, at a time t2, separating the ignition source from the electrodes of the magnetron arrangement. The introduction of the current by the boost source continues for a certain duration tEIN. The process also includes interrupting the introduction of the electric energy for a predetermined time tAUS.
