The combination of HiPIMS and plasma based ion implantation (PBII) offers new possibilities for surface modification taking advantage of the high density of target ions and application of a synchronized high voltage bias pulse onto the substrate. A very important parameter in this combined experiment is the delay between HiPIMS pulse and PBII pulse, according to the evolution of the HiPIMS pulse.
In the present study we investigate the influence of the delay time, PBII pulse length and distance between substrate and magnetron on the substrate current as well as on the energy flux towards the substrate, measured by a highly time resolved VI-probe and by means of a calometric probe as described in [1]. The results exhibit a remarkable influence especially of the delay time and give information about the transport of the ions from target to substrate in form of a localized ion bunch, as described in [2].
