Abstract

A modified method for producing thin homogeneous metallic surface layers by wire explosions in vacuum is described. By this method, which takes advantage of electrical suction fields, films of good homogeneity and surface quality can be obtained. In this way materials of high boiling temperature can be evaporated and coatings of inner faces of hollow bodies are attainable, too.
