A kind of three target magnetic control sputtering coating equipments
Technical field
The utility model relates to a kind of three target magnetic control sputtering coating equipments, belongs to the magnetic control sputtering vacuum coating machine equipment, is mainly used in the deposition of the deposition of various coatings, particularly solar selective absorbing coating.
Technical background
Style Columu Talget magnetron sputtering film device is mainly used in the single or multiple metallic substance coating deposition than the product of big area or width, especially for the deposition of solar vacuum tube surface selectivity absorber coatings.The vacuum coating film equipment that deposits solar selective absorbing coating in the complete glass vacuum sun thermal-collecting tube in the market is mainly based on single target magnetic control sputtering coating equipment of sputter Al-N/Al coating for selective absorption and three target coating equipments of sputter Cu-SS-Al/N coating for selective absorption.
It is the sputter center that single target coating equipment normally is equipped with a Style Columu Talget in the interposition of vacuum chamber, can adopt circumference sputter mode that the magnetic field rotary target material do not change or target rotation and the directed sputter mode that do not change in magnetic field, workpiece is symmetrically distributed around target usually, to obtain uniform coating.Its advantage is: single target filming equipment has only a cover power supply and a sputtering target, and low cost of manufacture simple in structure is applicable to the sputter of single metal or alloy coating.Shortcoming is: because single target filming equipment has only a cover power supply and a sputtering target, therefore under same processing condition, can only carry out the sputter of single metal or single alloy, and under the fixed processing condition, the sedimentation rate of coating also is a fixed, can't realize the co-sputtered of multiple metal or multiple alloy, kind that can splash coating compares less.
Single relatively target coating equipment, many targets coating equipment just can be realized the co-sputtered of multiple metal or multiple alloy.Many targets coating equipment of existing market has two targets, three targets, four targets or more, designs according to processing requirement fully.The cylindrical vacuum chamber that is used for three target coating equipments of solar selectively absorbing coating sputter at present is that three column rotary targets arrange with isosceles triangle is principal character, realize the independent or co-sputtered of three targets under the same vacuum chamber, each Style Columu Talget all can adopt circumference sputter mode that the magnetic field rotary target material do not change or target rotation and the directed sputter mode that do not change in magnetic field, can realize the sputter of many metallic membranes system.Its structural representation as shown in Figure 1,1 is vacuum-chamber wall among the figure, the 2nd, the column sputtering target, the 3rd, shielding slab, the 4th, pole shoe, 5 magnet steel, the 6th, door for vacuum chamber, three sputtering targets are arranged, the target of each target can be the same or different, and is two targets of center line symmetry (or asymmetric) more nearby from door for vacuum chamber, is a target at a distance from door for vacuum chamber, three targets are Chinese character pin-shaped symmetry (or asymmetric) and are distributed in the vacuum chamber, and the shielding slab here is a Y shape.Its advantage is: can realize the co-sputtered of one or more metals or multiple alloy, increase substantially the sedimentation rate of coating, reduce the process time, thus the production efficiency of effectively raising.But this three targets have a lot of shortcomings with product word structure distribution, main drawback is: 1, for three target magnetic control sputtering coating equipments, because the shielding isolation that the Y shape shielding slab that can only adopt between the magnetron sputtering target of product word arrangement carries out between target could guarantee can not pollute mutually between three targets, so causing effective sputter area of each root target is the unidirectional sputter of certain angle, cause the sputter rate of single target to reduce, and then influence the sedimentation rate of coating; 2, for a certain main sputtering target material in three targets, because the unidirectional sputter of single face that delta structure causes causes its sputter rate and sedimentation rate lower, thereby has also influenced the sedimentation rate of whole coating, cause the coating process overlong time, reduced production efficiency.3, arranging of three target delta structures consumes the measurement of degree and changes and also cause very big difficulty target, as when measuring the consumption degree of the innermost target of coating chamber, difficulty is very big, especially in the time of will changing this target, because the vacuum interior space is narrow and small, then need two targets of front and shielding slab are all dismantled and can be implemented.Cause the maintenance complexity of equipment, difficulty.If adopting is the product word arrangement structure of the target in vacuum chamber doorway, two targets in back, the inconvenience in the time of can bringing observation equally and change target is not done detailed description at this.
Technology contents
Technical problem to be solved in the utility model is, designs a kind of three target magnetic control sputtering coating equipments, under the constant prerequisite of function, improves coating sputtering yield and production efficiency, and is easy to change and maintenance.
The utility model comprises vacuum chamber, shielding slab and three cylindrical targets, it is characterized in that three cylindrical targets are in-line and are arranged in the vacuum chamber, and is parallel to door for vacuum chamber, between the adjacent cylindrical target shielding slab is arranged.
The three target magnetic control sputtering filming equipment major advantages that in-line is arranged have:
1, under the condition of the effective sputter area that guarantees auxiliary sputtering target, make the sputter area maximization of main sputtering target, the directed double-faced sputter of the main sputtering target of realizing, under identical sputtering condition, make the sputter rate of main sputtering target increase one times, thereby the sedimentation rate that makes coating has obtained double growth, has reduced the sedimentary process time of coating, has improved production efficiency;
2, there are three sputtering targets to distribute to be and are parallel to the door for vacuum chamber layout, more help monitoring and measurement that sputtering target material consumes degree, the simultaneously also more convenient replacing and the maintenance of sputtering target.When wherein a certain sputtering target keeps in repair and change, and do not need other two sputtering targets are carried out dismounting;
