A doctor blade assembly for coating a traveling web of material.

A method of sputtering particles from a target as a film on a substrate comprising maintaining the target and substrate in a first vacuum facing each other; biasing the target; producing a plasma from a sputtering gas to provide positive ions in plasma production; injecting the plasma between the target and substrate to provide injected plasma to effect sputtering by bombarding the target with the positive ions and liberating target particles for condensing on the substrate as sputtered particles to form the film; and decoupling the plasma production from the sputtering.
