Rotatable sputtering cathode device for film coating
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of plated film sputter equipment, refer more particularly to a kind of rotatable sputtering cathode device for film coating.
Background technology
Adopt plane sputter cathode target mostly in the equipment of production coated glass at present; Its principle of work is: it is indoor to need the glass of plated film to send into vacuum plating; A certain amount of high-purity process gas of the indoor feeding of vacuum plating---like oxygen, nitrogen or argon gas; Process gas forms the plasma body of positively charged under the effect of EM field and free electron; Plasma body under the control in magnetic field, is used material according to the plated film that certain track and dynamics bombardment are fixedly mounted on the indoor planar cathode target of vacuum plating under the attraction of the negative electrode that is loaded with high negative voltage; Coating Materials is come out by gas molecule collision, is deposited on the certain thickness rete of formation on glass according to certain orientation.The shortcoming of above-mentioned plane sputter cathode target is: because bombardment track and target all are fixed; Therefore after using for some time; Sputter cathode target surface, plane can form runway shape sputter pit, not only can destroy the homogeneity of coatings, and reduce the utilization ratio of target; Need often to change target, very trouble.

Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing and specific embodiment technical scheme of the present invention and principle of work thereof and advantage are done further to describe.
Like Fig. 1, Fig. 2, shown in Figure 3; Rotatable sputtering cathode device for film coating; Comprise: be installed in the pipe shape target 2 on the cathode circular tubes 1, the two ends of cathode circular tubes 1 are connected with a supporting base 3 and 31 respectively, one of them supporting base 3 through insulating part 22 and bearing insulation ground expansion bearing on frame 4; This supporting base 3 is provided with driving wheel 5 and brush 6, and 3 conduction are connected on the cathode circular tubes 1 power supply with supporting base through brush 6; Go back insulation supporter in cathode circular tubes 1 inside centre bearing pipe 7 is arranged; The bottom of centre bearing pipe 7 is provided with magnetic core element 8; Referring to shown in Figure 4, described magnetic core element 8 is installed in the magnetic core mount pad 19, and magnetic core mount pad 19 is installed on the centre bearing pipe 7 through attachment fastener 20; The centre of described magnetic core element 8 is the N utmost point, and the S utmost point is being arranged in both sides; In insulation covering 9, insulation covering 9 is installed on the frame 4 to another supporting base 31 through the bearing expansion bearing; Centre bearing pipe 7 and insulation covering 9, supporting base 3 and 31 and cathode circular tubes 1 between constitute an airtight cavity 10; Insulation covering 9 inwalls are provided with sealing projection 11 and contact with 7 sealings of centre bearing pipe; The end that is positioned at the centre bearing pipe 7 in sealing projection 11 outsides is provided with through hole 12; The inner chamber of centre bearing pipe 7 communicates with water inlet pipe 14 on being installed in frame 4 through the through hole 13 on this through hole 12 and the insulation covering 9; The cavity 10 of sealing projection 11 opposite sides communicates with rising pipe 16 on being installed in frame 4 through the water outlet through hole 15 on the insulation covering 9; The other end at centre bearing pipe 7 is provided with posticum 17, and cavity 10 communicates with the inner chamber of centre bearing pipe 7 through this posticum 17.On centre bearing pipe 7, also be provided with several guide vanes 18, the effect of guide vane 18 is flow directions of guiding water, and water coolant can be discharged from rising pipe 16 through cavity 10 fast.Between magnetic core element 8 and cathode circular tubes 1, also be provided with several support rollers 21, the effect of support roller 21 is: prevent that centre bearing pipe 7 and magnetic core element 8 grades from rubbing the rotation of obstruction cathode circular tubes 1 because of the inwall of conduct oneself with dignity bending and cathode circular tubes 1.
Principle of work of the present invention is: the drive unit by other setting during work drives supporting base 3 and 31, reaches cathode circular tubes 1 and target 2 uniform rotation through driving wheel 5, and through brush 6 high negative voltage is passed on the cathode circular tubes 1 through supporting base 3.It is indoor that the glass of need plated film is sent into vacuum plating; A certain amount of high-purity process gas of the indoor feeding of vacuum plating---like oxygen, nitrogen or argon gas; Process gas forms the plasma body of positively charged under the effect of EM field and free electron, and plasma body is being loaded with the negative electrode of high negative voltage---under the attraction of cathode circular tubes 1, under the control in magnetic field; Plated film according to certain track and dynamics are bombarded on the pipe shape target 2 that at the uniform velocity rotates is used material; Coating Materials is come out by gas molecule collision, is deposited on the certain thickness rete of formation on glass according to certain orientation, accomplishes plated film work.Among the present invention; Because target 2 is constantly at the uniform velocity rotation when work; Thereby plasma body will bombard its whole surface equably, on its surface with regard to can not form because of a certain position by the sputter pit that long-term bombardment forms, effectively avoided the formation of sputter zone of oxidation; And improved the utilization ratio of target, improved the homogeneity of coatings.
In addition; The working temperature of target 2 is too high after the long term operation; Can in cathode circular tubes 1, feed water coolant, its method of cooling is: in water inlet pipe 14, feed nonconducting water coolant, water coolant is arranged on through hole 13 and the inner chamber that is arranged on the through hole 12 inflow centre bearing pipes 7 on the centre bearing pipe 7 on the insulation covering 9 from water inlet pipe 14 processes; Flow into cavitys 10 from posticum 17 then, after water outlet through hole 15 flow out from rising pipe 16.During work, because cathode circular tubes 1 is in slew rope, thereby guide vane 18 relatively rotates with respect to cathode circular tubes 1, thereby guide cooling water flows to water outlet through hole 15 apace better.
