Description
Technical Field
The utility model relates to the technical field of semiconductor processing, in particular to a plasma deposition sputtering system.
Background
Plasma deposition sputtering is a process in which a gas is excited by a gas discharge to form plasma, and the collective surface is treated by a plasma reaction to produce a deposit. The plasma deposition coating film needs to use a magnetron sputtering technology, and electrons are controlled to be accelerated to collide with atoms under the action of an electric field and fly to a substrate, and the high energy bombards the surface of a target material so as to cause the target material to sputter.
As shown in fig. 1, in the prior art, a radio frequency bias is used to accelerate deposition, so as to change the direction of the plasma, so that the plasma has better collimation. As shown in fig. 2, for chip size shrink, it is necessary to fill the chip holes, and the holes are filled with dielectric layers and metal films. This places higher demands on the collimation of the direction of the plasma movement. Due to the increase of the radio frequency bias voltage, the plasma after radio frequency acceleration can generate bombardment behavior on the surface of the chip besides the expected accelerated deposition, and if the track control of the plasma movement is not good, the surface of the chip can generate plasma-induced damage.
The plasma deposition coating generally adopts a static magnetic field, and is mainly used for changing plasma distribution and changing a plasma path. However, the effect of the static magnetic field on electrons is limited.
Patent CN114318245a discloses a vacuum coating apparatus for rotating magnetic field guided deposition, and discloses a method for improving the motion track of plasma by adding a rotating magnetic field to the apparatus, thereby improving the effect of plasma vacuum coating.

The deflection angle of the electrons and the whole ion body is changed by the magnetic field vector.
In the comparison patent, the plasma after being acted by the rotating magnetic field moves to the vacuum coating chamber through a pipeline, and the pipeline is used as a moving channel of the plasma, and the length of the pipeline can reach tens of meters generally. The rotating magnetic field is arranged at the position of the pipeline, and after the ions are acted by the magnetic field, the ions can reach the vacuum coating chamber only after long-distance movement, so that the action effect of the ions entering the vacuum coating chamber is affected.
