A kind of ion beam surface treatment equipment and method that suppresses secondary
Technical field
The invention belongs to the vacuum electronic technical field, specially refer to a kind of ion beam surface treatment equipment and method that is used to suppress receive under the vacuum state secondary of electron bombard electrode.
Background technology
Travelling wave tube is widely used in radar, electronic warfare, weaponrys such as satellite communication and precise guidance.In recent years, constantly increase, simultaneously the travelling wave tube performance has also been proposed requirements at the higher level, comprising higher homogeneous tube efficient for the travelling wave tube demand.Higher homogeneous tube efficient not only means the power consumption that reduces travelling wave tube, the weight and volume that reduces power supply, and means the space of improving device reliability and life-span is provided.This is particularly important for airborne and space travelling wave tube, because the travelling wave tube of this type equipment inevitably receives the restriction of power consumption and weight.It is reported that spaceborne travelling wave tube homogeneous tube efficient improves one percentage point, economic benefit is up to 30,000,000 dollars.Therefore, the homogeneous tube efficient of raising space travelling wave tube is very important.
The homogeneous tube efficient of travelling wave tube depends primarily on electronics and annotates the interaction efficiency with high-frequency circuit, and the efficient of collector.A kind of method that improves collector efficient is to adopt multi-level depressurization collector (MDC).In theory; MDC makes the electronics that leaves the interaction region by the different speed categorised collection; Promptly than the electronics of kinetic energy through being collected than the collector of electronegative potential (like minimum cathode potential) behind the higher decelerating field, the electronics of low kinetic energy is then adopted the collector of high potential, make the electronics can both " soft landing "; Reduce electronics and surperficial collision loss, with the part kinetic energy feedback power of electronics.
Multi-level depressurization collector reasonable in design can improve the homogeneous tube efficient of travelling wave tube.Yet in fact, there is the distribution of certain way in the energy that leaves the electronics of interaction region, and the effect of MDC is subject to the secondary of collector material all the time.The emission ratio of secondary electron, one side depends on the character of material, and is closely related with the pattern of material surface on the other hand.For oxygen-free copper, it has excellent thermal conductivity, conductance and can process and welding performance in metal material, often be used as desirable collector material.Not enough is, and its secondary electron yield is higher.Reducing or suppress a method of its secondary, is to start with from the surface topography modification of oxygen-free copper, thereby avoids on oxygen-free copper, applying dissimilar materials (like graphite etc.).Collector material commonly used is also with regard to first-selected thermal conductivity and the excellent oxygen-free copper of conductance.But the secondary electron yield peak of oxygen-free copper is up to 1.35, and in extremely wide primary electron energy range, all demonstrates higher secondary electron yield.Primary electron produces a large amount of secondary electrons when arriving collector inevitably, and the primary electron of a certain amount of elastic scattering.The electronics of these band energy appears near the collectors at different levels, then causes considerable energy loss when they get on the collector once more, thereby reduces the efficient of travelling wave tube collector, and the body temperature is risen, and has further reduced the efficient of travelling wave tube again; The existence of a large amount of low energy secondary electrons also possibly cause backflow, increases the high frequency heat dissipation power and forms noise.So it is most important to suppress secondary.The implication of the application's theme also is able to clearer and more definite.
Summary of the invention
The technical issues that need to address of the present invention are that in the travelling wave tube collector, inevitably there being a large amount of secondary electrons, they have reduced the efficient of the collector and the homogeneous tube of travelling wave tube, in order to overcome this drawback, will manage to suppress secondary.The object of the invention just provides a kind of ion beam surface treatment equipment and method that suppresses secondary.
For realizing the object of the invention, the technical scheme of being taked is following, a kind of ion beam surface treatment equipment that suppresses secondary; Comprise the mechanical pump, secondary vacuum molecular pump and the sample stage assembly that are in forvacuum; It is characterized in that sample stage assembly top is provided with the sputtering sedimentation assembly, the form of said sputtering sedimentation assembly is; Be designed to the molybdenum target of tooth wing ring plate shape structure; The tooth wing becomes 45 to 85 degree angles with horizontal plane, through the ratio of the adjustment tooth wing with the vacancy area, with the deposition rate of adjustment molybdenum atom; This sputtering sedimentation assembly upper space is provided with ion source, and they have formed the vacuum equipment of sealing, and this equipment is also connecting an electrical control cubicles.
The electrical control cubicles power supply is used for the power supply and the control thereof of ion source, vacuum pump and parts such as vacuum gauge, heater.This element of installation is divided into high vacuum system and two major parts of surface treated member again.High vacuum system can be made up of high-vacuum pump (like molecular pump) and roughing pump (like mechanical pump) and measurement component etc., and the ultimate vacuum of system reaches 5x10
-5Pa.
Surface treated member is the core of this equipment, mainly comprises ion source, like Kaufman ion source, sputtering sedimentation assembly and sample stage.The Kaufman ion source is positioned at the top of vacuum chamber, and the sputtering sedimentation assembly places the sample stage top, be used for hanging down the atom of sputtering raste in the sample surfaces deposition, and like molybdenum atom, be the effect of mask.The method that constitutes the sputtering sedimentation assembly is, utilizes same ion source, and molybdenum target is carried out sputter.Said molybdenum target upper diameter is suitable with the ion beam spot diameter, and is of embodiment.In order to control and adjust the deposition rate of molybdenum atom, can set about from the molybdenum target assembly, said molybdenum target is designed to dentalation, through the ratio of the adjustment tooth wing with the vacancy area, just can adjust the deposition rate of molybdenum atom.Sample is placed on the work stage of rotation, with the consistency of the deposition rate of guaranteeing molybdenum atom.
In order to obtain optimum process condition, after design and having processed above-mentioned surface processing equipment, also need carry out technological experiment.Because there are differences between different ion sources, molybdenum target and the collector sample.The method of test is, ins conjunction with the measurement of secondary electron coefficient and the analysis of ESEM, and the optimization technological parameter, purpose is to make secondary electron coefficient minimum.The main technologic parameters of optimizing comprises: the tooth wing of energy of ions and density, molybdenum target and the heating-up temperature of the ratio of vacancy area, sample, the time of processing etc.
