HIPIMS TiAlN Experiment
Sample # Etching
Deposition source configuration
➢ To create defect free coatings with good adhesion.
➢ To make coatings for tool and tribo applications which outperform arc deposited coatings
➢ To reduce thermal load of substrate
Results - Morphology AFM 2x2µm
Ion energy
2D1H75V HIPIMS -75V
2D1H95 HIPIMS -95V
Increase in ion energy (higher bias) with constant ion flux leads
to densification of coating
