\A Gravity-Related Transport in Reactive Off-Axis Sputtering DepositionAn experiment was designed to investigate the transport characterization of reactive off- axis sputtering deposition. Three transport regions were observed when the growth pressures vary from 5 mtorr to 150 mtorr. A new gravity-related phenomenon was revealed in film growth at relatively high growth pressures. This effect is related to the collision process or thermalization of transport species. This study also suggests a design for the substrate holder orientation in the off-axis sputtering system.
