Mechanism of sputtering ?
Interactions of ions with surfaces
The ion impact may set up a series of collisions between atoms of the target, possibly leading to the ejection of some of these atoms. This ejection process is known as sputtering.

Sputtering
Ions are accelerated into target Some of the surface atoms are sputtered off of the target. Measure of efficiency of sputtering These sputtered atoms flow acrossS ejected atoms or molecules the chamber to incident ion where they are deposited
The sputter yield depends on: (a) the energy of the incident ions; (b) the masses of the ions and target atoms; (c) the binding energy of atoms in the solid and (d) the incident angle of ions.

DC (diode) Sputtering
The simplest sputtering technology
Parameters for DC Sputtering Sputter voltage
typically -2 to -5 kV
Deposition rate
changes with Ar pressure increases with sputter yield usually increases with high voltage
E (e-) < 2eV - no ionization, elastic collisions only E (e-) > 2eV - inelastic collisions add energy to Ar ionization (highest energy process, ~15eV) Note: mass (e-)/mass( Ar) ~ 10-5 energy transfer small e- gain energy via elastic collisions until E>15eV for ionization

Disadvantages
An erosion track in the target his leads to poor efficiency of sputtering yield versus target volume compared to non-magnetron sputtering Non-uniform removal of particles from target result in non-uniform films on substrate

Reactive Sputtering
Sputtering metallic target in the presence of a reactive gas mixed with inert gas (Ar)
A mixture of inert +reactive gases used for sputtering
oxides Al2O3, SiO2, Ta2O5 (O2) nitrides TaN, TiN, Si3N4 (N2, NH3) carbides TiC, WC, SiC (CH4, C2H4, C3H8)
chemical reaction takes place on substrate and target can poison target if chemical reactions are faster than sputter rate adjust reactive gas flow to get good stoichiometry without incorporating excess gas into film

Summary
Sputter deposition, also known as physical vapor deposition is a widely used technique for depositing thin films on semiconductor wafers. The range of applications of sputtering and the variations of the basic process, is extremely wide.
ZnO thin films have been successfully deposited by rf sputtering and a promising transparent conductive oxide for application in thin film solar cells.
