Abstract:
A sputtering system adapted for depositing quartz in uniform thicknesses upon multiple wafers processed in batches including an anode plate having a plurality of wafer locations spaced from the center of the anode, with each wafer location comprising a wafer receiving recess in the anode plate having an angular bottom slope which, in effect, tilts the wafer to an optimum deposition angle with respect to the cathode, depending upon wafer spacing from the center of the anode, to insure uniform deposition across the wafer.
