摘要
Al evaporation and N-2 absorption rates during cathodic are evaporation with an Al cathode and N-2 gas how were measured as a function of process pressure under medium pressure, These rates decreased as the pressure increased, The ratio of the Al evaporation rate to the N-2 absorption rate was about 2:1, The film deposited on the anode chamber was analyzed by an X-ray diffraction analyzer and found to be aluminum nitride (AIN), This result indicates that N-2 gas is mostly absorbed and fixed in the deposits on the anode surface in the form of AIN.
