Examples of sputtersputter We can overcoat these thermally stable mandrels with plasma polymer, vapor deposited polyimide, or sputtered beryllium with unparalleled wall thickness and composition control. The particles were assumed to be slowed by sputtering, with relatively low sputtering coefficient of 0.5. Other sputtering processes may be considered in the future. The average particle size can be controlled by proper choice of sputtering voltage, gas pressure, and substrate temperature. As the indictments of the spring grand jury coughed and sputtered in actual trials, there was little left for which to hope. The near surface layers of practical supported catalysts have been studied through low energy ion scattering the high surface sensitivity and ion beam sputtering to obtain monolayer" depth profiles". In parallel with the experiments investigating the coating deposition uniformity investigations were carried out on the target sputtering uniformity along its length using different magnetic system designs. Despite initial uneasiness on the part of legislators and labor officials, these funds began to proliferate in the 1950s as the movement for national health insurance sputtered. Finally, the completely dried preparations were sputter-coated with gold using standard procedures. The effect of secondary emission and sputter yield has been incorporated in the model through the plasma-wall collision frequency. The potential profile is affected by the sputter yield near the exit. The changes in the plasma density, potential and azimuthal electron velocity due to the sputter yield are significant in the acceleration region. The sputter yield effect does not modify the electron temperature significantly. In the present work, the effect of secondary electron emission and sputter yield have been considered simultaneously. The sputtering model considered here may require significant modification for the case of highly fluffy and porous meteoroids.
