Radio frequency sputtering—the significance of power input

TL;DR: In this paper, the discharge power is derived by subtracting losses from the total power reading, which can be used as an aid in the scaling of system sizes, and this discharge power exhibits interesting behavior as the pressure is varied, at constant applied rf voltage.
