Description

Plasma processing chamber internal components and methods of making the same
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of plasma and chemical corrosion resistance in a plasma processing chamber, in particular to an internal part of the plasma processing chamber and a manufacturing method thereof.
Background
Aluminum materials are widely used as materials for manufacturing related parts in plasma processing apparatuses because of their characteristics of good conductive properties, ease of manufacture, and availability at a reasonable price. However, aluminum itself is liable to react with corrosive gases such as chlorine, causing corrosion of parts themselves and becoming a source of particulate contaminants in the reaction chamber.
In order to avoid corrosion of aluminum material by corrosive gas, a protection method of forming an anodic oxidation layer on the surface of aluminum material is generally adopted at present to try to solve the problem of corrosion of aluminum material by corrosive gas such as chlorine gas. Aluminum anodization is a typical electrolytic oxidation process, i.e., a process of using an aluminum material as an anode, placing the aluminum material in an electrolyte solution for electrification, and forming a porous anodized aluminum coating on the surface of the aluminum material by electrolysis.
In addition, some critical parts processed from the anodized aluminum material in the plasma processing apparatus are exposed to the plasma and bombarded by the reactive components in the plasma, which may cause erosion damage to the bombarded critical parts, not only reducing the lifetime of the plasma processing apparatus, but also deteriorating the processing quality, stability and controllability of the plasma processing apparatus. In order to protect the key parts inside the plasma processing apparatus, a protective layer against plasma erosion is formed on the surface of the anodized layer of the key parts. For example, since a mounting substrate of a gas shower head is formed by processing an aluminum material through oxidation treatment, and a surface of the mounting substrate of the gas shower head, which is in contact with a back surface of the gas shower head, is subjected to plasma erosion, yttrium oxide (Y) is generally formed on the surface of the mounting substrate of the gas shower head at present2O3) Coatings have attempted to solve the plasma erosion problem described above.
However, in practical use, it was found that the mounting substrate of the gas shower head after the above treatment still had a problem of being corroded by an etching gas such as chlorine gas. The reason is that: the anodic oxidation layer inevitably has cracks and pores in the production process, and particularly when the anodic oxidation layer is used in a region with a certain temperature, the anodic oxidation layer has cracks to spread and generates new cracks. Meanwhile, as the yttria coating contains certain pores and cracks, chlorine and the like can permeate into the anodic oxidation layer along the pores and the cracks of the yttria, and the anodic oxidation layer also contains cracks, so that the chlorine can finally corrode the aluminum substrate. Failure of the protective anodized layer can result in excessive particulate generation within the reaction chamber, requiring additional downtime to replace failed aluminum parts and to clean the particles within the reaction chamber.

Detailed Description
The invention will be further described by the following specific examples in conjunction with the drawings, which are provided for illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
In order to solve the problem that the conventional plasma processing chamber is not capable of simultaneously satisfying the chemical corrosion resistance of the halogen-based etching gas or the plasma thereof, as shown in fig. 1, a preferred embodiment of the method for manufacturing the internal component of the plasma processing chamber according to the present invention comprises the following steps:
step 1: an aluminum-containing substrate 1 is provided and an anodized layer 2 is formed on the surface of the aluminum-containing substrate 1.
The aluminum-containing substrate 1 is typically an aluminum or aluminum alloy material in the manufacture of components in a plasma processing apparatus. In order to reduce the corrosion of the aluminum-containing substrate 1 caused by the corrosive gas, in this embodiment, an anodized layer 2 is first formed on the surface of the aluminum-containing substrate 1. Before the anodized layer 2 is prepared, an appropriate pretreatment step is selected according to the surface condition of the aluminum-containing substrate 1, so as to obtain the aluminum-containing substrate 1 with sufficient smoothness and no scratch or other defects. In some preferred embodiments, the processing step may include two main steps: (1) performing alkaline etching on the surface of the aluminum-containing substrate 1 to clean impurities on the surface; (2) the surface of the aluminum-containing substrate 1 after the alkali etching is chemically polished to remove scratches and other defects of the surface.
The aluminum-containing substrate 1 obtained by the pretreatment is sufficiently smooth and free of scratches and other defects, and then is subjected to a subsequent anodization process to form a uniform anodized layer 2 on the surface of the aluminum-containing substrate 1. The aluminum-containing substrate 1 is generally used as an anode and immersed in an electrolytic solution to carry out an anodic oxidation treatment. The electrolyte is generally prepared by introducing direct current or pulse current by using low-temperature sulfuric acid or mixed acid method with oxalic acid.
Step 2: and coating a thermoplastic polymer coating 3 on the surface of the anodic oxidation layer 2, and then carrying out heating treatment.
The temperature of the heat treatment is set or designed depending on the actual working environment of the anodized layer 2 structure. Generally, the temperature of the heat treatment may be equal to or slightly greater than the actual operating ambient temperature of the anodized layer 2 structure. In the examples of the present invention, 50 to 180 ℃ was selected as the temperature selection range for the heat treatment.
The invention requires the polymer coating to have thermoplasticity, because the anodic oxidation layer 2 can fully generate new cracks in a high-temperature working environment of 50-180 ℃, the polymer coating has thermoplasticity and can enter the cracks of the anodic oxidation layer 2 in the high-temperature environment, thereby realizing the purpose of sealing the cracks to avoid the infiltration of corrosive gases such as chlorine and the like and realizing the dynamic filling of the cracks and the gaps of the anodic oxidation layer 2; in addition, if the high molecular coating is locally damaged, such as scraping, the high molecular coating is converted from a glass state to a high elastic state in the high-temperature environment, so that the aim of automatically repairing the high molecular coating can be fulfilled.
When the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 is coated, the raw materials are in a solution state and are not limited by the shape and the structure of the part, particularly the inner wall of the air hole (phi 2 mm). For example, when the mounting substrate of the gas shower head is manufactured, the mounting substrate can be directly poured into the gas hole of the mounting substrate, then the solution is poured out, and finally the solution adhered to the inner wall of the gas hole is cured and molded at a high temperature of 50-180 ℃. As a more preferable example, the material of the thermoplastic polymer coating layer 3 may be selected from thermoplastic acrylic resins. The thermoplastic acrylic resin is a thermoplastic resin prepared by polymerizing acrylic acid, methacrylic acid and derivatives thereof (such as esters, nitriles and amides).
And step 3: and preparing a first yttrium oxide coating 4 on the surface of the thermoplastic polymer coating 3.
In order to further realize the plasma corrosion resistance of the component which is treated in the step 2 and has the function of resisting the corrosion of the corrosive gas such as chlorine, the first yttrium oxide coating 4 is further prepared on the surface of the thermoplastic polymer coating 3. According to the embodiment, the first yttrium oxide coating 4 is continuously coated on the thermoplastic polymer coating 3, so that the plasma corrosion resistance of the metal part can be improved, the service life of the metal part is prolonged, and the processing efficiency of plasma processing equipment is improved.
The yttria coating can be formed by one or more of the following processesThe method includes Plasma Enhanced Physical Vapor Deposition (PEPVD), Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD), Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD), Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD), Plasma Spray (PS), or sol-gel method (sol-gel), etc. Among them, in order to reduce the porosity of the newly prepared coating layer, it is preferable to use a plasma spraying method. In practical application, the spraying process can select proper spraying equipment according to specific conditions, and set technological parameters such as air flow, spraying distance, current and the like according to the adopted spraying equipment. Wherein the first yttria coating 4 can also be other plasma corrosion resistant coatings, such as yttria and Yttrium Fluoride (YF)3) The mixture of (1) can be applied to the present invention as long as it is a ceramic material that can withstand plasma erosion.
The specific structure of the internal components of the plasma processing chamber manufactured through steps 1-3 of this embodiment includes: an aluminum-containing substrate 1; an anodic oxidation layer 2 covering the surface of the aluminum-containing substrate 1; the thermoplastic polymer hole sealing structure is filled in the microcracks formed by the anodic oxide layer 2; the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 covers the surface of the anodic oxidation layer 2; and the first yttrium oxide coating 4 covers the surface of the thermoplastic polymer coating 3. The internal component of the plasma processing chamber manufactured in the embodiment may be a gas shower head, a mounting substrate of the gas shower head, a gas distribution plate, a plasma confinement ring, a focus ring, an electrostatic chuck, or an inner wall of a reaction chamber of a plasma processing apparatus. The embodiment meets the plasma erosion resistance by means of the yttria coating, and simultaneously seals the pores and cracks of the anodic oxide layer 2 by means of a macromolecule hole sealing method, thereby avoiding chemical corrosion of chlorine gas to the aluminum-containing substrate 1. The internal part of the plasma processing chamber provided by the embodiment not only realizes the plasma erosion resistance, but also improves the chlorine corrosion resistance.
In another preferred embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, a method for manufacturing internal components of a plasma processing chamber is provided, comprising the steps of:
step 1: an aluminum-containing substrate 1 is provided and an anodized layer 2 is formed on the surface of the aluminum-containing substrate 1.
Step 2: and coating a thermoplastic polymer coating 3 on the surface of the anodic oxidation layer 2, and then carrying out heating treatment.
And step 3: and after the heating treatment, removing the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 on the surface of the anodic oxidation layer 2.
And 4, step 4: and preparing a first yttrium oxide coating 4 on the surface of the anodic oxidation layer 2.
The specific structure of the internal components of the plasma processing chamber manufactured through steps 1-4 of this embodiment includes: an aluminum-containing substrate 1; an anodic oxidation layer 2 covering the surface of the aluminum-containing substrate 1; the thermoplastic polymer hole sealing structure is filled in the microcracks formed by the anodic oxide layer 2; and the first yttrium oxide coating 4 covers the surface of the anodic oxidation layer 2.
The present embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that: before the first yttrium oxide coating 4 is prepared, the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 after the heating treatment is removed. For some metal parts with strict requirements on the surface coating thickness, the coating thickness of the surface of the metal part can be controlled by removing the thermoplastic polymer coating 3. The method for removing the coating is preferably a physical grinding method, so that the surface of the anodized layer 2 after the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 is removed has no scratch or other defects, and the coating effect of the first yttrium oxide coating 4 is further facilitated.
In step 2 of this embodiment, the metal member having the thermoplastic polymer coating layer 3 formed thereon is further subjected to a heating treatment, so that microcracks in the anodized layer 2 are sufficiently and preliminarily formed. And the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 is changed from a glass state to a high elastic state, so that the cracks and gaps of the anodic oxide layer 2 are dynamically filled. Thus, although the thermoplastic polymer coating layer 3 on the surface of the anodized layer is removed, the thermoplastic polymer material layer filled with the microcracks remains inside the anodized layer. In the subsequent actual high-temperature working environment, few or no new micro-cracks are formed in the anodized layer 2, and only very slight and almost negligible corrosion is caused, even if new cracks are generated, the thermoplastic polymer filled in the original cracks can still flow at high temperature to cover the new cracksAnd the cracks ensure that the whole part does not crack in a long life cycle, and prevent corrosive gas from reaching the aluminum material layer along the cracks to corrode the part. The thermoplastic polymer layer on the surface of the anodic oxide layer is removed, and a plasma corrosion resistant coating (such as a first yttrium oxide coating) directly exposed to plasma is directly coated on the underlying anodic oxide layer (Al)2O3) And the thermal expansion coefficients of the two materials are close to each other, so that the strength of mutual combination of the two materials is improved, and further cracking and falling off are prevented.
As shown in fig. 3, the first diagram is a scanning electron microscope photograph after the anodized layer 2 is coated, the second diagram is a scanning electron microscope photograph after the thermoplastic polymer coating layer 3 is coated, the third diagram is a scanning electron microscope photograph after the thermoplastic polymer coating layer 3 is removed, and the upper and lower diagrams in each diagram are a low-magnification scanning electron microscope photograph and a high-magnification scanning electron microscope photograph, respectively. As can be seen from fig. 3, the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 realizes dynamic filling of cracks and gaps in the anodized layer 2, thereby preventing permeation of corrosive gases such as chlorine.
The embodiment meets the plasma erosion resistance by means of the yttria coating, and simultaneously seals the pores and cracks of the anodic oxide layer 2 by means of a macromolecule hole sealing method, thereby avoiding chemical corrosion of chlorine gas to the aluminum-containing substrate 1. The internal part of the plasma processing chamber provided by the embodiment not only realizes the plasma erosion resistance, but also improves the chlorine corrosion resistance.
In another preferred embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, a method for manufacturing internal components of a plasma processing chamber is provided, comprising the steps of:
step 1: an aluminum-containing substrate 1 is provided and an anodized layer 2 is formed on the surface of the aluminum-containing substrate 1.
Step 2: and preparing a second yttrium oxide coating 5 on the surface of the anodic oxidation layer 2.
And step 3: and coating a thermoplastic polymer coating 3 on the surface of the second yttrium oxide coating 5, and then carrying out heating treatment.
And 4, step 4: and preparing a first yttrium oxide coating 4 on the surface of the thermoplastic polymer coating 3.
The specific structure of the internal components of the plasma processing chamber manufactured through steps 1-4 of this embodiment includes: an aluminum-containing substrate 1; an anodic oxidation layer 2 covering the surface of the aluminum-containing substrate 1; the second yttrium oxide coating 5 covers the surface of the anodic oxidation layer 2; the thermoplastic polymer hole sealing structure is filled in the microcracks formed by the second yttrium oxide coating 5; the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 covers the surface of the second yttrium oxide coating 5; and the first yttrium oxide coating 4 covers the surface of the thermoplastic polymer coating 3.
The present embodiment differs from the first embodiment in that: before the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 is coated, a second yttrium oxide coating 5 is prepared on the surface of the anodic oxidation layer 2. Wherein the second yttria coating 5 can also be other plasma corrosion resistant coatings, such as yttria and Yttrium Fluoride (YF)3) The mixture of (1) can be applied to the present invention as long as it is a ceramic material that can withstand plasma erosion. The present embodiment can be applied to the corrosion resistance treatment of the aluminum material which is coated with the yttrium oxide coating on the surface of the anodic oxidation layer 2 at present. The microcracks of the second yttrium oxide coating 5 are fully and preliminarily formed through heating treatment, and the second thermoplastic polymer coating 3 is converted from a glass state to a high elastic state to dynamically fill the cracks and gaps of the second yttrium oxide coating 5, so that the second yttrium oxide coating 5 is prevented from being permeated by corrosive gases such as chlorine and the like, and the chemical corrosion resistance of the metal part is realized. On the basis, a first yttrium oxide coating 4 is formed on the surface of the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 by means of plasma spraying and the like, so that plasma corrosion resistance of the metal part is realized. The embodiment shows that the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 can dynamically fill not only cracks and gaps of the anodized layer 2 but also cracks and gaps of the yttria coating in the high-temperature treatment process, and provides different treatment modes for manufacturing and modifying various internal components of a plasma treatment chamber so as to achieve a wider application range.
The embodiment meets the plasma erosion resistance by means of the yttrium oxide coating, and simultaneously seals the pores and cracks of the second yttrium oxide coating 5 by means of a macromolecule hole sealing method, thereby avoiding chemical corrosion of chlorine gas to the aluminum-containing substrate 1. The internal part of the plasma processing chamber provided by the embodiment not only realizes the plasma erosion resistance, but also improves the chlorine corrosion resistance.
In another preferred embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, a method for manufacturing internal components of a plasma processing chamber is provided, comprising the steps of:
step 1: an aluminum-containing substrate 1 is provided and an anodized layer 2 is formed on the surface of the aluminum-containing substrate 1.
Step 2: and preparing a second yttrium oxide coating 5 on the surface of the anodic oxidation layer 2.
And step 3: and coating a thermoplastic polymer coating 3 on the surface of the second yttrium oxide coating 5, and then carrying out heating treatment.
And 4, step 4: and after the heating treatment, removing the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 on the surface of the second yttrium oxide coating 5.
And 5: and preparing a first yttrium oxide coating 4 on the surface of the second yttrium oxide coating 5.
The specific structure of the internal components of the plasma processing chamber manufactured through steps 1-5 of this embodiment includes: an aluminum-containing substrate 1; an anodic oxidation layer 2 covering the surface of the aluminum-containing substrate 1; the second yttrium oxide coating 5 covers the surface of the anodic oxidation layer 2; the thermoplastic polymer hole sealing structure is filled in the microcracks formed by the second yttrium oxide coating 5; and the first yttrium oxide coating 4 covers the surface of the second yttrium oxide coating 5.
The present embodiment differs from the third embodiment in that: before the first yttrium oxide coating 4 is prepared, the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 after the heating treatment is removed.
For some metal parts with strict requirements on the surface coating thickness, the coating thickness of the surface of the metal part can be controlled by removing the thermoplastic polymer coating 3. The method for removing the coating is preferably a physical grinding method, so that the surface of the second yttrium oxide coating 5 after the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 is removed has no scratch or other defects, and the coating effect of the first yttrium oxide coating 4 is further facilitated.
In step 2 of this embodiment, the metal member on which the thermoplastic polymer coating layer 3 is formed is further subjected to a heating treatment, so that the microcracks of the second yttria coating layer 5 are sufficiently and previously formed. And the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 is changed from a glass state to a high elastic state, so that the dynamic filling of cracks and gaps of the second yttrium oxide coating 5 is realized. Thus, although the thermoplastic polymer coating 3 is removed, in the subsequent actual high temperature operating environment, there is little or no new microcrack formation in the second yttria coating 5, resulting in very little, if any, corrosion.
The embodiment meets the plasma erosion resistance by means of the yttrium oxide coating, and simultaneously seals the pores and cracks of the second yttrium oxide coating 5 by means of a macromolecule hole sealing method, thereby avoiding chemical corrosion of chlorine gas to the aluminum-containing substrate 1. The internal part of the plasma processing chamber provided by the embodiment not only realizes the plasma erosion resistance, but also improves the chlorine corrosion resistance.
In summary, the thermoplastic polymer coating is coated on the surface of the anodic oxide layer or the yttria coating, and the polymer is converted from a glass state to a high-elasticity state by utilizing the characteristics of the thermoplastic polymer coating under the action of heating, so that the cracks and gaps of the anodic oxide layer or the yttria coating are dynamically filled and self-repaired. The invention meets the plasma erosion resistance by the yttria coating, seals the pores and cracks of the yttria coating or the anodic oxide layer by a macromolecule hole sealing method, avoids chlorine gas from permeating into the pores, and improves the corrosion resistance of parts in the plasma processing chamber to corrosive gases such as chlorine gas and the like.
The hole sealing method of the thermoplastic polymer coating adopted in the manufacturing process of the internal part of the plasma processing chamber is not limited by the shape and the structure of the part, and has the advantages of simple process, easy implementation and low cost. The thermoplastic polymer coating can realize dynamic hole sealing of cracks of the yttria coating or the anodic oxide layer and self-repair of the thermoplastic polymer coating in a crack area under the working condition of high temperature of 50-160 ℃, and thoroughly prevents corrosive gases such as chlorine and the like from permeating in the using process. The internal part of the plasma processing chamber not only realizes the plasma erosion resistance, but also improves the chlorine corrosion resistance.
