Description

A kind of preparation method of secondary electron emission film
Technical field
The invention belongs to photoelectron material and device technology field, relate to a kind of preparation method of the secondary electron emission film that can be used for electron-multiplier.
Background technology
Magnesium oxide (MgO) film, because have the advantages such as the good and preparation technology of high, the anti-charged particle bombardment performance of secondary electron yield is simple, is widely used in the devices such as image intensifier, photomultiplier, electron-multiplier, crossed field amplifier and plasma display at present.When for electron-multiplier, in order to make device obtain long work-ing life, secondary electron emission film must be able to tolerate higher-wattage stream of electrons and bombard for a long time, and therefore the MgO film thickness of preparation need to reach tens nanometers even more than 100 nanometers.But because magnesium oxide is insulating material, thicker MgO film can produce surface charge phenomenon under electron bombardment, this can make its secondary electron yield fast reducing also finally close to 1, thereby affects the stability of film secondary electron emission.This problem has limited the application of magnesia film in high-performance electronic multiplier.
Under electron bombardment, produce surface charge for fear of thicker MgO film, Henrich adopts and in MgO film, has mixed a certain proportion of gold to form MgO/ metallic cermet films, the electroconductibility of film is enhanced, and in order to make this film can there is the high secondary electron yield close to pure MgO film, form the very high thin layer (Appl.Phys.Lett. of one deck MgO content by art breading at film surface, 1973,23(7): 7-8).The concrete preparation method of this secondary electron emission film adopts radio frequency sputtering method sputter MgO/Au composition target in metal base, to prepare MgO/Au metallic cermet films, the Ar that is then 500ev with energy +film surface is carried out to bombardment processing, utilize Ar +thereby to golden sputter rate far above the sputter rate of MgO is formed to a thin layer with high MgO content on MgO/Au metallic cermet films surface.Due to mixing of Au, this MgO film conductivity is improved, make it in the time that rete is thicker, still can effectively avoid surface charge, thereby can be by increasing film thickness to improve the performance of film tolerance higher-wattage electron bombardment, and because have the thin layer that MgO content is very high to exist at film surface, this film also has higher secondary electron yield.When this secondary electron emission film is applied to electron-multiplier, can make electron-multiplier obtain higher gain and longer work-ing life.
Research shows, although this secondary electron emission film of reporting in above document has aforementioned advantages with respect to pure zirconia magnesium film, it also exists following obvious weak point:
(1) use a combined oxidation magnesium target that contains certain proportion gold composition to prepare secondary electron emission film, therefore, the magnesium oxide in film deposition process in target and gold are subject to the Ar of equal-wattage +sputter.Due to Ar +sputter rate to MgO and Au is widely different, causes the Au content being deposited in suprabasil film to change, inconsistent with the Au content in target; And, Ar +the difference size of the sputter rate to MgO and Au also can change along with the change of the conditions such as sputtering power and working gas pressure; In addition the content of gold and the distribution of Jin Jing's grain in film and the Ar that bombards target in the growth of MgO and Au crystal grain, magnesium oxide crystalline orientation, film, +energy and bi-material sedimentation rate separately relevant.Therefore, this film can not obtain suitable magnesium oxide and Jin Jing's particle size, magnesium oxide crystalline orientation, gold content and the distribution of Jin Jing's grain in film by regulating and controlling respectively the sputtering condition of MgO and Au, so be difficult to preparation technology to carry out meticulous optimization to obtain the secondary electron emission film of excellent performance.
(2) in order to improve the secondary electron yield of film, after thin film deposition completes, need to carry out sputter process to its surface with the argon ion of higher-energy (as 500ev), utilize Ar +the differentiation sputter of MgO and Au is obtained to the thin layer of surperficial high MgO content.But the thickness of film surface MgO layer prepared by this method is difficult to accurate control, if surperficial MgO layer thickness is blocked up, can reduce film conductivity, thereby affects secondary electron emission stability, as crossed the thin secondary electron yield that can reduce film.And, Ar +sputter process can cause the damage of top layer magnesium oxide crystal grain, reduces magnesian secondary electron yield.Particularly due to Ar +difference size to various metals and magnesian sputter rate is also different, some metal due to sputter rate is lower or with MgO have the reason of stronger bonding force and the sputter rate difference of MgO little, cannot make to prepare in this way the thin layer of surperficial high magnesia content, the suitability of magnesia film that therefore the method is mixed different metal material to preparation is poor.

Figure 8 shows that two kinds of different metal content distribution of having that adopt that the processing step of the embodiment of the present invention 2 prepared in the metal refining mode of 35W to 22W decreasing power and 30W firm power sputter gold target respectively mix the curves of secondary electron yield δ t decay in time of golden magnesium oxide secondary electron emission film (corresponding curve a and curve are b) respectively in rete.Can find out, along with the growth of incident electron stream bombardment time, the taper off secondary electron emission film of distribution of the position metal content at bottom to the top by magnesium oxide and metal mixed layer that adopts decreasing power sputter gold target to prepare has higher secondary electron yield all the time.
As can be seen from the above embodiments, compared with existing secondary electron emission method for manufacturing thin film, magnesium oxide in film and the grain-size of metal, magnesium oxide crystalline orientation, metal content and the distribution of metal grain in film are easy to accurate control, thereby can make film obtain higher secondary electron yield and stability; Film-forming process is flexible, relatively simple, is adapted to mix various metallic substance to improve its electroconductibility in magnesium oxide, without adopting Ar +differentiation sputter, film skin depth is easily controlled; In the magnesium oxide of film top layer, mix a certain proportion of material that there is lower work function or can form impurity level in magnesium oxide forbidden band, be conducive to film secondary electron emission, thereby obtain the secondary electron yield higher than pure zirconia magnesium.
Although the present invention has made detailed description with above-mentioned preferred embodiment to the present invention, not limit the present invention with above-described embodiment.The preparation method of secondary electron emission film of the present invention is not limited to above-mentioned several scheme, as long as according to basic conception of the present invention, adopt independently magnesium target (or magnesium oxide target) and metallic target of sputter, by accurately controlling respectively the sputtering power of magnesium target (or magnesium oxide target) and metallic target, sputtering time, working gas and reaction gas flow and base reservoir temperature preparation have suitable magnesium oxide and metal grain size, magnesium oxide crystalline orientation, metal content, the distribution of metal grain in film and magnesium oxide metal mixed layer and the top layer magnesium oxide of thicknesses of layers, make secondary electron emission film obtain higher secondary electron yield and the object of stability to reach, all belong to protection scope of the present invention.
