In this work, the effects of dual magnetron configuration on the spatial distribution of glow discharge plasma employed in sputtering technique are introduced. Three different configurations of magnetrons in a dc sputtering system were tested. Results showed that the configuration choice allows for fine-tuning the plasma column's width and focus, giving engineers unparalleled control over the properties of the resulting thin films, from thickness uniformity to structural quality.
