ABSTRACT:
A cathode sputtering system for coating substrates in a vacuum chamber in which a rotating substrate carrier is accommodated and comprises at least one conveyor spoon. The conveyor spoon comprises a substrate receptacle member and an arm attached between the receptacle member and a rotating disk. The arm preferably comprises two leaf springs arranged parallel to one another. During the sputtering process, a pressure plate presses the substrate receptacle member and the substrate against a mask that is part of the cathode station. As a result, a cathode vacuum space is formed that is isolated from the vacuum space of the system.
