Abstract

See full text

A crucible (4) in a vacuum chamber (3) holds material to be evaporated, such as a metal or metal oxide or a mixture of a metal and a metal oxide, and a coating roll (6) guides a film web (8) a certain distance away from the material to be evaporated. A chamber (9, 10) is provided on each side of the coating roll (6) which carries the film web (8) past the crucible (4), a magnetron cathode (11, 12) connected to a medium-frequency source (19) being provided in each chamber. Each of the two chambers (9, 10) is connected by its own channel (13, 14) to a coating zone (20) directly between the coating roll (6) and the crucible (4), and each chamber (9, 10) is connected by a pressure line (21, 22) to a source (23, 24) of process gas.
