GFE Schmalkalden e.V. Vapor deposition (PVD)<br />

PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition)<br />

Advantages:<br />

• <strong>Coating</strong> properties are the result <strong>of</strong> target composition (compounds <strong>of</strong> carbides or nitrides)<br />

• Metallic ceramics show and very high hardness<br />

• PVD coatings are normally chemical inert (reduced adhesion wear)<br />

• High thermal stability (coating decomposition with oxides at temperatures >400°C)<br />

• Thin and form fitting coatings (sharp edges)<br />

Disadvantages:<br />

• Deposition in the line <strong>of</strong> sight (high effort for work piece positioning)<br />

• No possibility to deposit coating in holes and slots<br />

• Process needs high vacuum (high costs, work pieces must be vacuum qualified)<br />

• Metallic pre cleaned surfaces necessary (for good adhesion)<br />

• No corrosion protection with PVD coatings (porous structure)<br />

GFE Schmalkalden e.V. Vapor deposition (PVD)<br />

PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition)<br />

<strong>Coating</strong> structure:<br />

• <strong>Coating</strong> structure depends on substrate temperature, pressure an coating material<br />

• Different models can be used to predict expected coating structure<br />

Zone 1: Needle shaped crystallites,<br />

porous structure by<br />

shadowing effects<br />

Zone 2: columnar structure column<br />

diameter is increased with<br />

temperature<br />

Zone 3: recrystallized dense structure,<br />

grain growth depend on<br />

diffusion effects<br />

Zone T: transition region with fibrous<br />

structure, diffusion<br />

compensate shadowing<br />
