Abstract:
Physical vapor deposition systems are disclosed herein. An exemplary physical vapor deposition system includes a target, a collimator, a power source system, and a control system. The power source system is configured to supply power to the collimator and the target. The control system is configured to control the power source system, such that the collimator is bombarded with noble gas ions during a sputtering process and the target is bombarded with metal ions during a re-sputtering process, wherein the collimator functions as a sputtering target during the sputtering process and as the collimator during the re-sputtering process.

Claim (Index 4):
The physical vapor deposition system of  claim 1  configured to generate a plasma that includes the noble gas ions during the sputtering process and the metal ions during the re-sputtering process, and further wherein the power source system is configured to control the plasma by supplying the power to the collimator during the sputtering process and supplying the power to the target during the re-sputtering process.
