Sputter definition

Sputter means to "emit by popping." This is a manufacturing method for producing thin films, by striking a material with ions so particles are emit- ted, and then attaching the emitted material onto a substrate. More specifically, ions of an inert gas such as argon are accelerated, and made to collide at high-speed with the target material. The process whereby atoms or molecules are ejected at the target surface is called sputtering, and equipment for forming thin films by depositing the ejected atoms or molecules onto a substrate is called sput- tering equipment. When film materials are trans- ferred into sputtering equipment housed in a very large box about 3 m in height, particles of the metal target that will become the electrodes are ejected and deposited.
