Abstract
The target of a device for cathodic sputtering at a high deposition rate on a substrate placed within a pumped enclosure is brought to a negative potential with respect to an anode. A gas is admitted at a pressure P into the space formed between the target and the anode, a high gas-pressure gradient being established between the target and the substrate. A magnetic field H is produced in a direction parallel to the target surface located opposite to the substrate and a suppressor screen is placed around the target.
