Comparison of magnetron sputtering systems for high-rate deposition of thick copper layers for microelectronic applications by M. V. Nazarenko

“…Since laboratory results often differ from issues faced in production processes, this choice becomes even more difficult under real production conditions due to a lack of sources for comparison. The purpose of the present work is therefore to compare magnetron deposition methods under real industrial conditions (planar extended magnetron, liquid-phase magnetron and cylindrical magnetron with a rotating cathode), identify their advantages and disadvantages along with features of thus-formed metal films, analyze the economic feasibility of each variant, and give practical recommendations for selecting a source when implementing the described process.Methods. …”
