Pulsed bias effect on crystallinity and nano-roughness of Ti6Al4V-N films deposited by grid assisted magnetron sputtering system

This paper reports the effect of pulsed bias in comparison with DC bias on reactive deposition of Ti6Al4V-N films, obtained by Grid Assisted Magnetron Sputtering. The results obtained by X-Ray diffraction (XRD), Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometer (EDX) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) show that bias condition affects the crystalline texture and change the roughness and morphology of the films. The DC bias favors the film crystallinity, however the pulsed bias produces smoother films.
