How Does PVD Coating Work?
The solid metal is vaporized or ionized in a high vacuum environment and deposited on electrically conductive materials as a pure metal or metal alloy films. When a reactive gas, such as nitrogen, oxygen or a hydrocarbon-based gas is introduced to the metallic vapor, it creates nitride, oxide, or carbide coatings as the metallic vapor stream, chemically reacts with the gasses. PVD coating must be done in a specialized reaction chamber so that the vaporized material doesn’t react with any contaminants that would otherwise be present in the room.
During the process of PVD coating, the process parameters are closely monitored and controlled so that the resulting film hardness, adhesion, chemical resistance, film structure, and other properties are repeatable for each run. Various PVD coating are used to increase wear resistance, reduce friction, improve appearance, and achieve other performance enhancements.
In order to deposit high purity materials such as titanium, chromium, or zirconium, silver, gold, aluminum, copper, stainless steel, the physical process of PVD coating utilizes one of several different PVD coating methods, including:
Arc evaporation
Thermal evaporation
DC/MF sputtering(the bombardment of ions)
Ion Beam Deposition
Ion plating
Enhanced sputtering
Each of these methods belong in the overarching category of “physical vapor deposition”.
