Abstract
The present invention provides a method of depositing a film on a surface of a coil that includes depositing a metal from a target onto a surface of a coil to form a first film on the surface and forming a second film over the first film at a low pressure and at a first power at the target that is substantially higher than a first power at the component's surface. The conditioned deposition tool is well suited for manufacturing integrated circuits.
