Description

Method for preparing homogeneous amorphous multilayer film to change heterogeneity of amorphous structure
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of nano metal films, relates to a nano-scale multilayer structure film, and particularly relates to a method for preparing a homogeneous amorphous multilayer structure film by a magnetron sputtering technology.
Background
Different from crystal materials, the amorphous alloy shows the structural characteristics of long-range disorder and short-range order, and does not have crystal structure defects such as dislocation, crystal boundary, twin crystal and the like. The special structural characteristics endow the amorphous alloy with a plurality of excellent performances, such as higher compressive strength (which can be close to a theoretical value), better elastic performance (the elastic limit strain is about 2 percent), good corrosion resistance, good wear resistance and the like. However, under the room temperature condition, the deformation of the amorphous alloy material is easily concentrated in a local shear zone area of 10-20nm, and the shear zone is rapidly increased in value and expanded to generate localized deformation, so that the material is finally fractured, the poor plastic deformation capability is shown, and the engineering application of the amorphous alloy is severely restricted.
Researches find that the structural heterogeneity of the amorphous alloy is improved, the deformation localization can be effectively inhibited, and the mechanical property of the amorphous alloy is improved. The reason may be that the heterostructure can effectively promote the generation of multiple shear bands and hinder the main shear band from expanding, suppressing the degree of localization of the deformation. In the current experiments and researches, methods for improving the heterogeneity of amorphous alloys generally comprise: nano alloying, rolling, shot blasting, etc. However, the above methods have certain limitations: introducing nanocrystalline to destroy the integral amorphous structure of the material; the rolling and spraying method is not easy to realize and control, and belongs to the later-stage modification technology. Therefore, a method for simply and effectively improving the structural heterogeneity of the amorphous alloy on the premise of keeping the integral amorphous structure is found, and the method has important significance for improving the plastic deformation behavior of the amorphous alloy.

Detailed Description
The invention provides a method for preparing homogeneous amorphous/amorphous multilayer film materials with different structural heterogeneity by utilizing a magnetron sputtering technology and simultaneously combining an intermittent deposition process. This example uses common Cu50Zr50The amorphous alloy is used as a sputtering target material to prepare homogeneous multilayer amorphous alloy film materials with different structural heterogeneity, and the mechanical properties of the amorphous alloy materials are changed. By controlling the sputtering time, amorphous layers having different microstructures are obtained, andand different interface numbers are introduced, so that the structural heterogeneity of the amorphous film is changed.
Ultrasonically cleaning a single-side polished crystalline silicon substrate for 15min by using acetone and alcohol respectively, drying the substrate by using a hair dryer, putting the substrate on an ultrahigh vacuum magnetron sputtering device, arranging an amorphous alloy target to be sputtered on the target base, turning on a plating power supply, controlling the power to be 30-150W, and depositing on the single-side polished crystalline silicon substrate.
The preparation of the multilayer amorphous film adopts an intermittent deposition mode, the deposition is carried out for 2-60min, the suspension is carried out for 2-30min, and the next layer of plating is carried out after the film is cooled. The substrate table is rotated in the plating process, so that the uniformity of sputtering deposition is ensured.
The sputtering pause process is repeated until a predetermined film thickness is obtained.
The amorphous target can be made of CuZr, NiNb and ZrCuNiAlSi common amorphous alloy materials.
The modulation ratio of the amorphous layer in the film can be adjusted by the sputtering time in the film coating process.
The method adopted by the invention has the main principle that: in the magnetron sputtering film plating process, an intermittent plating process is adopted, so that the amorphous film with the same quality has a multilayer structure and different microstructures. The content of free volume at the amorphous interface is more than that in the amorphous layer, and the structural heterogeneity of the amorphous film is increased. In addition, the amorphous alloy relaxes due to the temperature rise during the plating process, and the free volume content in the amorphous alloy decreases. By controlling the plating time and changing the modulation wavelength and the modulation ratio of the amorphous layer, the relative content of free volume in the amorphous can be regulated and controlled, and the structural heterogeneity can be improved.
Example 1
The specific process of the homogeneous multilayer amorphous CuZr film comprises the following steps:
1) ultrasonically cleaning a monocrystalline silicon wafer for 15min by using acetone and absolute ethyl alcohol in sequence, drying the monocrystalline silicon wafer by using a hair drier, and putting the monocrystalline silicon wafer on a substrate table of ultrahigh vacuum magnetron sputtering equipment to prepare for coating.
2) Mixing Cu50Zr50The alloy target is used as a source target material of an amorphous film, is arranged on a target material seat and is closed to sputteringInjecting a hatch, vacuumizing until the background vacuum degree reaches 3 x 10-7mba。
3) High-purity argon is used as main ionized gas (the purity of the argon is 99.99%), an argon bottle valve is opened, the flow of the argon is adjusted to be 3.0ccm, and an effective glow discharge process is guaranteed.
4) The sputtering adopts an intermittent deposition process, and the process parameters are as follows: power of the direct current power supply: 100W; rotating the additional substrate table; deposition temperature: and (4) room temperature. At this parameter, a set of comparative examples were prepared, the amorphous films all having a thickness of 1 μm: a. every 35min of deposition, the power supply is turned off and the plating is suspended for 15min, and the deposition and the suspension are respectively carried out for 4 times (hereinafter, the sample is named as 4L); b. the power supply is turned off and the plating is suspended for 5min every 12min of deposition, and the deposition and suspension are respectively carried out for 12 times (hereinafter, the sample is named as 12L);
and sequentially carrying out high-resolution transmission electron microscope microstructure, Fourier transform spectrogram and annular threshold filtering treatment analysis on the CuZr amorphous layers with different thicknesses. It was confirmed that the amorphous alloy layer having a smaller thickness had a larger free volume content, and the amorphous layer having a larger thickness had a smaller free volume content.
Referring to FIG. 1, which is a transmission electron microscope cross-sectional view of a homogeneous multilayer CuZr amorphous film, the film interface is clearly visible.
Referring to fig. 2, a histogram of AFM energy loss for thin films of different monolayer thicknesses is shown. The energy loss in the amorphous alloy is related to the free volume content of a local area in the structure, and the energy loss distribution diagram can reflect the structural characteristics of the amorphous alloy. In the film (4L) with smaller monolayer thickness, the half-height width of the energy loss Gaussian distribution curve is smaller, which indicates that the structural heterogeneity of the amorphous film is smaller; in the case of a film (12L) having a smaller monolayer thickness, the half-height width of the energy loss Gaussian distribution curve is larger, and the structural heterogeneity is increased. Therefore, the results prove that the heterogeneity of the two homogeneous amorphous alloy multilayer film structures prepared by changing the plating parameters by adopting the intermittent magnetron sputtering method is different.
Example 2
1) Ultrasonically cleaning a monocrystalline silicon wafer for 15min by using acetone and absolute ethyl alcohol in sequence, drying the monocrystalline silicon wafer by using a hair drier, and putting the monocrystalline silicon wafer on a substrate table of ultrahigh vacuum magnetron sputtering equipment to prepare for coating.
2) Mixing Cu50Zr50The alloy target is used as a source target material of the amorphous film, is arranged on the target material seat, the sputtering cabin door is closed, and the vacuum pumping is carried out until the background vacuum degree reaches 3 x 10-7mba。
3) High-purity argon is used as main ionized gas (the purity of the argon is 99.99%), an argon bottle valve is opened, the flow of the argon is adjusted to be 3.0ccm, and an effective glow discharge process is guaranteed.
4) The sputtering adopts an intermittent deposition process, and the process parameters are as follows: power of the direct current power supply: 100W; rotating the additional substrate table; deposition temperature: and (4) room temperature. Given a set of comparative examples at this parameter, the amorphous films are all 1 μm thick:
a. the power is turned off and the plating is suspended for 5min every 12min of deposition, and the deposition sputtering process is repeated 12 times (hereinafter the sample is named as S1);
b. sputtering for 14min, turning off power supply, suspending plating for 10min, continuing to deposit for 57min, and turning off power supply, suspending plating for 30 min. This deposition pause cycle was repeated twice (hereinafter this sample was designated as S2);
c. sputtering and depositing for 57min, turning off the power supply, suspending plating for 30min, continuing to deposit for 14min, and turning off the power supply, suspending plating for 10 min. This deposition pause cycle was repeated twice (hereinafter this sample was designated as S3).
The three samples were nanoindented and the maximum shear stress corresponding to the first pop-in was counted. The first pop-in during nanoimprinting corresponds to the stress required for nucleation of shear banding, and this stress value is related to the local area structure of the nanoimprinting. The maximum shear stress profile may therefore reflect the structural heterogeneity of the sample. When the slope of the curve is larger, the internal structure of the sample is more similar, and the structural heterogeneity is small; when the slope of the tangent of the opposite curve is small, the sample is corresponding to various structural characteristics, and the structural heterogeneity is large.
Therefore, as can be seen from fig. 2, sample S1 has greater structural heterogeneity than the other two samples; in contrast, in samples S2 and S3, only the plating sequence of two adjacent layers is changed, and other plating parameters are not changed, so the internal structure of the amorphous alloy film is similar, and the structural heterogeneity is close to unity.
The comparison example further proves that the structural heterogeneity of the amorphous alloy film can be changed by regulating the thickness, the number of layers, the modulation ratio and the like of the amorphous alloy layer by adopting an intermittent magnetron sputtering method.
It should be noted that the preparation method adopted in the present invention can be applied to amorphous materials such as CuZr, NiNb, CuTa, zrcainiali, and the like, and is not limited to this example.
The method can prepare the homogeneous nano amorphous film and change the structural heterogeneity, thereby effectively improving the mechanical property of the amorphous material. Meanwhile, the plating time can be easily controlled, so that the structural heterogeneity can be effectively controlled, and the industrial production and popularization are realized.
