ABSTRACT:
A method for depositing a layer on a substrate is disclosed wherein a collimator having cylindrical holes is employed to reduce the lateral component of a particle flux. The cylindrical holes are aligned to be perpendicular to a substrate wafer and have a variety of radii such that the hole radii are smaller in regions having a higher vertical component of particle flux than in regions which have a lower vertical component of the particle flux.
