본 발명은 산화물 고온 초전도체 박막제조에 관한 것으로, 특히 엑시머레이저(Eximer laser)를 이용하여 우수한 특성의 YBa2Cu3O7박막을 제조할 수 있는 박막제조장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to the production of oxide high temperature superconductor thin film, and more particularly, to a thin film manufacturing apparatus capable of producing a YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 thin film of excellent characteristics using an excimer laser (Eximer laser).

산화물 고온 초전도체, 특히 YB2aCu3O7제작하는 종래의 방법으로는 스퍼터링 방법, 열증착법, 전자빔 증착법등이 있다.Conventional methods for producing oxide high temperature superconductors, particularly YB 2 aCu 3 O 7 , include sputtering, thermal evaporation, and electron beam evaporation.

스퍼터링 방법은 이온화된 기체분자를 가속시켜 증착시키고자 하는 물질(타겟)에 충돌시켜 운동량을 교환시킴에 따라 튀어나온 입자를 기판위에 증착하는 방법이고, 열증착법이나 전자빔 증착법은 각각 저항가열이나 전자빔에 의한 가열에 의해 증착하고자 하는 물질(타겟)을 응용, 증발시켜 기판에 증착하는 방법이다.Sputtering is a method of depositing protruding particles on a substrate by exchanging momentum by colliding with ionized gas molecules to accelerate the deposition of the ionized gas molecules. Thermal evaporation or electron beam evaporation method is used for resistive heating or electron beam deposition. It is a method of depositing on a substrate by applying and evaporating a material (target) to be deposited by heating.

산화물 고온 초전도체 박막을 제작할때는 많은 양의 반응성가스로서 산소를 필요로 하는데 이 산소가 부족하게 되면 초전도 특성이 상실되거나 매우 나빠지게 된다.Oxide The high-temperature superconductor thin film requires oxygen as a large amount of reactive gas, and when this oxygen is insufficient, superconducting properties are lost or become very bad.

상기한 스퍼터링방법, 열증착법, 전자빔에 의한 증착법등은 아주 낮은 압력(수 mTorr∼수십 mTorr)하에서 박막제조가 이루어지고 이 압력 이상에서는 플라즈마 반응을 일으키는 것이 불가능하기 때문에 반응성가스인 산소가 매우 부족하게 되어 초전도 특성이 나쁘게 된다.In the sputtering method, thermal evaporation method, and electron beam evaporation method, the thin film is manufactured under a very low pressure (several mTorr to several tens mTorr), and it is impossible to generate a plasma reaction above this pressure. This results in poor superconductivity.

또한 산화물 고온 초전도체, 특히 YBa2Cu3O7은 여러 가지 원소로 이루어져 있고 많은 산소양을 포함하고 있는 화합물로서 원소의 구성비가 매우 중요하다.In addition, oxide high temperature superconductor, especially YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 is composed of various elements and contains a large amount of oxygen, the composition ratio of the elements is very important.

그러나 상술한 증착방법에 의해 형성할 경우, 물리적, 화학적 특성상 많은 산소량을 필요로 하나, 타겟의 조성비가 반응가스인 산소유입양의 부족으로 그대로 박막의 조성비로 되지 않는 문제점으로 인하여 초전도 특성이 또한 스퍼터링 방법의 경우 증착율이 매우 나쁠 뿐 아니라 여러 가지 복잡한 요인에 의해 재현성이 좋지 않은 문제가 있다.However, when formed by the above-described deposition method, a large amount of oxygen is required in terms of physical and chemical properties, but the superconducting property is also sputtered due to the problem that the composition ratio of the target does not become the composition ratio of the thin film as it is due to the lack of oxygen inflow amount, which is the reaction gas. In the case of the method, not only the deposition rate is very bad but also the problem of poor reproducibility due to various complicated factors.

본 발명은 상술한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 것으로, 엑시머레이저를 이용하여 전기적 특성이 우수하고 치밀한 미세구조를 가지며 제조시의 재현성 및 증착율이 높은 산화물 고온 초전도체를 제조할 수 있는 박막 제조장치를 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and provides a thin film manufacturing apparatus capable of manufacturing an oxide high temperature superconductor having excellent electrical properties, a dense microstructure, and high reproducibility and high deposition rate in manufacturing using an excimer laser. There is a purpose.

상기 목적을 달성하기 위해 본 발명이 박막제조장치는 광원인 엑시머레이저부(A)와, 상기 광원으로부터 나온 레이저짐을 타겟까지 전달하는 광학부 및 상기 광학부에 의해 전달된 레이저빔을 이용하여 타겟의 물질의 기판상에 증착시키는 진공챔버부로 구성된 것을 특징으로 한다.In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a thin film manufacturing apparatus using an excimer laser unit A, which is a light source, an optical unit which transmits the laser load from the light source, and a laser beam transmitted by the optical unit.

빔구멍(4)은 엑시머레이저로부터 나온 빔(7)을 깨끗한 부분만 잘라 쓸 수 있으며 원하는 에너지 크기만을 타겟으로 보낼 수 있다.The beam hole 4 can cut out the clean portion of the beam 7 from the excimer laser and send only the desired energy size to the target.

거울(5)과 렌즈(6)는 상기 빔구멍(4)을 통과한 빔을 포커싱(focusing)하여 에너지 밀도를 높이기 위한 것으로서, 이때 포커싱 방법으로는 이미징 테크닉(Imaging Technique)을 사용한다.The mirror 5 and the lens 6 are for focusing the beam passing through the beam hole 4 to increase the energy density. In this case, an imaging technique is used as the focusing method.

상기한 이미징 테크닉이란 빔구멍에서 렌즈까지의 경로길이를 a라 하고 렌즈에서 타겟표면까지의 길이를 b라고 하고 초점을 f라고 했을때*****이 되도록 하는 것을, 빔은*****만큼 포커싱이 되며 이것의 역인*****만큼 에너지 밀도가 증가하고, 또한 타겟 표면에 빔구멍모양의 실상이 맺히게 함으로써 일정한 크기를 갖는 빔만이 타겟에 조사되게 하는 것이다.The imaging technique described above means that the path length from the beam hole to the lens is a, the length from the lens to the target surface is b and the focus is f. Focusing by * and vice versa ***** increases the energy density, and also makes a beamhole shape on the target surface, so that only a beam having a constant size is irradiated to the target.

상기 본 발명의 박막제조장치를 이용하여 기판온도 700-800℃, 산소기압 100-500, 산소유량 20-30Sccm, 타겟과 기판사이의 거리 4-9cm의 제조조건하에서 제조된 산화물 고온 초전도체 YBa2Cu3O7박막의 특성은 임계온도 : 90-92K, 임계전류밀도 : 3-5×106A/cm2,박막의 결정성: 기판의 수직방향으로 YBa2Cu3O7의 C축이 엑피택시성장으로 나타났다.Oxide high temperature superconductor YBa 2 Cu prepared under the manufacturing conditions of substrate temperature 700-800 ° C., oxygen pressure 100-500, oxygen flow rate 20-30 Sccm, distance 4-9 cm between target and substrate using thin film manufacturing apparatus of the present invention. The characteristics of 3 O 7 thin film are: critical temperature: 90-92K, critical current density: 3-5 × 10 6 A / cm 2 , crystallinity of thin film: C-axis of YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 in the vertical direction of substrate Taxi growth.

이상과 같이 본 발명에 의하면, 엑시머레이저를 이용한 박막제조장치를 사용함으로써, 진공챔버 내의 산소압력을 100∼500mTorr로 높여도 챔버내에서의 플라즈마 반응을 일으키는데에는 문제가 없으므로 많은 산소유입량을 필요로 하는 YBa2Cu3O7와 같은 산화물 고온 초전도체 박막제조시에 산소유입량을 증가시켜서 박막의 산소조성비를 극히 용이하게 맞출 수 있게 되어 전기적 특성이 우수하고 치밀한 미세구조를 가지며 표면상태가 고르고 제조시의 재현성과 증착율이 향상된 산화물 고온 초전도체를 얻는 것이 강유전체 박막 등 각종 박막의 제조에 이용하는 것도 가능함은 물론이다.As described above, according to the present invention, even if the oxygen pressure in the vacuum chamber is increased to 100 to 500 mTorr by using a thin film manufacturing apparatus using an excimer laser, there is no problem in causing a plasma reaction in the chamber, which requires a large amount of oxygen inflow. Oxygen inflow rate increases during the production of oxide high temperature superconductor thin film such as YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 , making it very easy to match the oxygen composition ratio of the thin film. It is, of course, possible to obtain an oxide high temperature superconductor having an improved deposition rate and to produce various thin films such as ferroelectric thin films.
