Description

Technical Field

When preparing a metal film on the inner wall of a tube with a smaller inner diameter, a magnetron sputtering coating mode is generally adopted in order to ensure strong bonding force, high coating speed and low coating impurity content of the film. The magnetron sputtering coating process is based on glow discharge of gas, and the atmosphere is a key factor of the glow discharge. For magnetron sputtering coating on the inner wall of a small-aperture pipe, the condition of nonuniform atmosphere often occurs in the pipe due to blocking of the pipe wall, and the direct consequence is that the frequency of sparking discharge in the coating process is increased, the glow discharge is nonuniform, the coating is nonuniform, and the bonding strength is low.
