Technical Note to Table on Deposition Techniques
Processes specified in Column 1 of the Table are defined as
follows:
a. Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) is an overlay coating or
surface modification coating process wherein a metal, alloy,
``composite'', dielectric or ceramic is deposited upon a heated
substrate. Gaseous reactants are decomposed or combined in the
vicinity of a substrate resulting in the deposition of the desired
elemental, alloy or compound material on the substrate. Energy for
this decomposition or chemical reaction process may be provided by
the heat of the substrate, a glow discharge plasma, or ``laser''
irradiation.
Note 1: CVD includes the following processes: directed gas flow
out-of-pack deposition, pulsating CVD, controlled nucleation thermal
decomposition (CNTD), plasma enhanced or plasma assisted CVD
processes.
Note 2: Pack denotes a substrate immersed in a powder mixture.
Note 3: The gaseous reactants used in the out-of-pack process
are produced using the same basic reactions and parameters as the
pack cementation process, except that the substrate to be coated is
not in contact with the powder mixture.
b. Thermal Evaporation-Physical Vapor Deposition (TE-PVD) is an
overlay coating process conducted in a vacuum with a pressure less
than 0.1 Pa wherein a source of thermal energy is used to vaporize
the coating material. This process results in the condensation, or
deposition, of the evaporated species onto appropriately positioned
substrates. The addition of gases to the vacuum chamber during the
coating process to synthesize compound coatings is an ordinary
modification of the process. The use of ion or electron beams, or
plasma, to activate or assist the coating's deposition is also a
common modification in this technique. The use of monitors to
provide in-process measurement of optical characteristics and
thickness of coatings can be a feature of these processes. Specific
TE-PVD processes are as follows:
1. Electron Beam PVD uses an electron beam to heat and evaporate
the material which forms the coating;
2. Resistive Heating PVD employs electrically resistive heating
sources capable of producing a controlled and uniform flux of
evaporated coating species;
3. ``Laser'' Evaporation uses either pulsed or continuous wave
``laser'' beams to heat the material which forms the coating;
4. Cathodic Arc Deposition employs a consumable cathode of the
material which forms the coating and has an arc discharge
established on the surface by a momentary contact of a ground
trigger. Controlled motion of arcing erodes the cathode surface
creating a highly ionized plasma. The anode can be either a cone
attached to the periphery of the cathode, through an insulator, or
the chamber. Substrate biasing is used for non line-of-sight
deposition.
[[Page 2500]]
Note: This definition does not include random cathodic arc
deposition with non-biased substrates.
c. Ion Plating is a special modification of a general TE-PVD
process in which a plasma or an ion source is used to ionize the
species to be deposited, and a negative bias is applied to the
substrate in order to facilitate the extraction of the species to be
deposited from the plasma. The introduction of reactive species,
evaporation of solids within the process chamber, and the use of
monitors to provide in-process measurement of optical
characteristics and thicknesses of coatings are ordinary
modifications of the process.
d. Pack Cementation is a surface modification coating or overlay
coating process wherein a substrate is immersed in a powder mixture
(a pack), that consists of:
1. The metallic powders that are to be deposited (usually
aluminum, chromium, silicon or combinations thereof);
2. An activator (normally a halide salt); and
3. An inert powder, most frequently alumina. The substrate and
powder mixture is contained within a retort which is heated to
between 1,030 K (757 deg. C) to 1,375 K (1,102 deg. C) for
sufficient time to deposit the coating.
e. Plasma Spraying is an overlay coating process wherein a gun
(spray torch) which produces and controls a plasma accepts powder or
wire coating materials, melts them and propels them towards a
substrate, whereon an integrally bonded coating is formed. Plasma
spraying constitutes either low pressure plasma spraying or high
velocity plasma spraying carried out underwater.
Note 1: Low pressure means less than ambient atmospheric
pressure.
Note 2: High velocity refers to nozzle-exit gas velocity
exceeding 750 m/s calculated at 293 K (20 deg. C) at 0.1 MPa.
f. Slurry Deposition is a surface modification coating or
overlay coating process wherein a metallic or ceramic powder with an
organic binder is suspended in a liquid and is applied to a
substrate by either spraying, dipping or painting, subsequent air or
oven drying, and heat treatment to obtain the desired coating.
g. Sputter Deposition is an overlay coating process based on a
momentum transfer phenomenon, wherein positive ions are accelerated
by an electric field towards the surface of a target (coating
material). The kinetic energy of the impacting ions is sufficient to
cause target surface atoms to be released and deposited on an
appropriately positioned substrate.
Note 1: The Table refers only to triode, magnetron or reactive
sputter deposition which is used to increase adhesion of the coating
and rate of deposition and to radio frequency (RF) augmented sputter
deposition used to permit vaporization of non-metallic coating
materials.
Note 2: Low-energy ion beams (less than 5 keV) can be used to
activate the deposition.
h. Ion Implantation is a surface modification coating process in
which the element to be alloyed is ionized, accelerated through a
potential gradient and implanted into the surface region of the
substrate. This includes processes in which ion implantation is
performed simultaneously with electron beam physical vapor
deposition or sputter deposition.
