Abstract

A method and apparatus for performing highly ionized and low energy physical vapor deposition (PVD). The pressure is selected to increase the ionization of atoms sputtered from a target and de-energize these ions. The highly ionized, low energy target atoms are more easily attracted to a substrate that is biased.
