Description

  The present invention relates to a vacuum deposition apparatus for depositing a deposition material such as a metal material or an organic material on the surface of a substrate or a wafer.

  For example, in a vacuum deposition apparatus that deposits a deposition material on the surface of a deposition target member such as a substrate or a wafer and forms a thin film, in order to control the deposition amount on the deposition target member, A shutter device is provided between them.

  In this shutter device, a flat shutter member is disposed immediately above the evaporation source, and the shutter member is swung or slid by a cylinder device or the like to open and close the evaporation source discharge opening. (See Patent Document 1).

When the substrate is large, a long evaporation source is used so that vapor deposition can be performed at once over the entire width of the substrate. The shutter member used in such an evaporation source is a shutter member that is disposed between the substrate and the evaporation source and has a large number of holes formed over the entire surface. The amount of evaporation, that is, the amount of vapor deposition is controlled by adjusting the opening area of the hole by sliding (see Patent Document 2).

If the vapor deposition material is mixed and the film quality changes, or if the shutter member is plate-shaped and has a large number of holes, the vapor deposition material adheres around the holes and evaporates. There was a problem that the amount, that is, the amount of deposition decreased, and the film thickness became non-uniform.

  Accordingly, three discharge ports 12A, 12B, and 12C are arranged in a line at each discharge position E, and the discharge positions E are 4 rows × 4 columns, so the total number of discharge ports 12 is 48. It becomes a piece (16 places x 3 pieces).

Next, a description will be given of the shutter device 8 that can open and close the 48 discharge ports 12 for each type of vapor deposition material, that is, select a vapor deposition material.
As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the shutter device 8 is opened or closed according to the type of the deposition material, and has a large number of holes 22 so that a predetermined vapor deposition material vapor can be discharged into the deposition chamber 1.

  As shown in FIGS. 2, 5, and 6, three holes 22 are provided in a row at a predetermined first pitch P <b> 1 at positions corresponding to the discharge positions E of the shutter member 21. Three columns of hole portions 22 are provided at a predetermined second pitch P2 (that is, 3 × 3 columns = 9: in other words, 3 rows × 3 columns), for example, one hole portion in each column In order to open only 22, a lid member 24 that can close the remaining two holes 22 is detachably attached via a locking tool 25 (a locking protrusion, a set screw, or the like is used) 25. Yes.

  In FIG. 5, for example, with respect to the holes 22 in the first row on the left side, the lid member 24 is attached to the second and third holes 22B and 22C, and the first hole 22A is open. Has been. For the hole 22 in the center second row, the lid member 24 is attached to the first and third holes 22A and 22C, and the second hole 22B is opened, Further, with respect to the holes 22 in the third row on the right side, the lid member 24 is attached to the first and second holes 22A and 22B, and the third hole 22C is opened.

  Therefore, the shutter member 21 is arranged so that the first hole portion 22 row comes on the row of the discharge ports 12 arranged in three rows, or the second hole portion 22 row comes. Alternatively, the three discharge ports 12 arranged in a row can be selectively opened by moving the moving device 23 so that the third row of hole portions 22 comes. Of course, the moving pitch of the shutter member 21 is made equal to the second pitch P2 of the row of hole portions 22.

Next, the moving device 23 that moves the shutter member 21 in the front-rear direction (horizontal direction) a and the up-down direction will be described.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the moving device 23 is configured such that the lower end of the moving device 23 swings in the vertical plane via the bearings 32 and the support pins 33 on the support bases 31 arranged at the left and right positions of the dispersing container 7. A pair of front and rear link members 34 movably supported, front and rear support members 37 connected to the upper ends of both link members 34 via connection pins 35 and bearings 36, and on each of these support members 37 A guide member (guide rail) 38 that can be slidably guided in the front-rear direction and disposed on the lower surface of the shutter member 21 at the left and right positions, and the center of the left and right sides on the deposition container 3 side. A first moving cylinder device (for example, an air cylinder is used) 41 that is provided at a position and moves the shutter member 21 in the front-rear direction; Provided with and a the support member 37 and the second moving cylinder device for moving in the front-rear direction (e.g., an air cylinder is used) 42. The pair of link members 34 are provided in parallel to each other. That is, the shutter member 21 is supported on the bottom wall portion of the deposition container 3 via a parallel link mechanism, and if the pair of link members 34 swings in the vertical plane, the support member 37, that is, the shutter member 21 moves up and down. Will be moved to. The first moving cylinder device 41 and the shutter member 21 and the left and right second moving cylinder devices 42 and the left and right support members 37 can be relatively moved in the vertical direction. In this way, connecting link members 43 and 44 having both ends pin-connected are provided.

  When the second moving cylinder device 42 is operated, the support member 37 is moved up and down at a predetermined height along an arcuate locus (see FIGS. 7 and 8), and the first moving cylinder device 41 is operated. Then, the shutter member 21 is moved back and forth, that is, with the second pitch P2 that is the interval between the hole portions 22 (see FIG. 7). The lowering operation of the support member 37 is performed by pulling the rod portion of the second moving cylinder device 42 and swinging the link member 34 in the lateral direction while the first moving cylinder device 41 is fixed. Is called. Further, the ascending operation of the support member 37 is performed by pushing the rod portion of the second moving cylinder device 42 and swinging the link member 34 in the standing direction while the first moving cylinder device 41 is fixed. .

  Therefore, by moving the shutter member 21 back and forth and up and down with these two cylinder devices 41 and 42, at each discharge position E, any of the three discharge ports 12 is opened. In addition, the shutter member 21 itself can be positioned below the upper end surface of each discharge nozzle 11, that is, below the discharge port 12.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 5, when the vapor deposition material vapor from the upper dispersion container 7A is selected, the shutter member 21 is arranged so that the first row of the hole portions 22 row is on the discharge port 12 row. When the vapor deposition material vapor from the middle stage dispersion vessel 7B is selected, the second row of hole portions 22 may be moved over the discharge port 12 row, and When vapor deposition material vapor from the lower dispersion container 7C is selected, the third row of holes 22 may be moved so as to be on the discharge port 12 row.

  Of course, after the opening / closing operation of the discharge port 12 by the shutter member 21, the shutter member 21 is moved downward, and thus the shutter member 21 is positioned below the discharge port 12. Steam is prevented from adhering.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the lid member 24 is configured not to contact the upper end of the discharge nozzle 11 protruding from the surface when the shutter member 21 is moved downward. That is, the height h2 of the flange portion 24b provided around the lid portion 24a is higher than the protruding height h1 of the discharge nozzle 11.

By the way, this vacuum vapor deposition apparatus is naturally provided with a control device (not shown) for controlling the vapor amount of vapor deposition material (so-called vapor deposition rate).
That is, a measurement nozzle 51 is provided on the side surface of each dispersion container 7 in order to detect the vapor amount of the vapor deposition material released from each dispersion container 7, that is, the discharge amount, and at a position facing this measurement nozzle 51. A quartz-vibration film thickness meter 53 is provided via a mounting bracket 52 (FIG. 1 shows the case where it is provided in the middle dispersion container 7B, but it is also provided in the upper and lower containers. The measured value from the film thickness meter 53 is input to the control device, and the control valve 5 provided in the middle of the material transfer pipe 6 is controlled based on the measured value. Of course, although not shown, the film thickness formed on the surface of the glass substrate K is also controlled by a crystal vibration type film thickness meter similar to the above.

  In addition, a heater is provided in a portion where the vapor deposition material vapor transfer path, that is, the material transfer pipe 6 and the dispersion container 7 and the dispersion nozzle 7 of the discharge nozzle 11 are inserted, so that the vapor deposition material vapor does not adhere to the surroundings. Is taken into account.

In the above configuration, the overall vapor deposition operation will be briefly described.
Here, for example, a case where three kinds of vapor deposition materials are vapor-deposited on the surface of the glass substrate K in order will be described.

  First, the glass substrate K is carried into the vapor deposition chamber 1 and fixed to the holder 2. And the inside of the vapor deposition chamber 1 is made into predetermined vacuum degree with the vacuum device which is not illustrated. At this time, the material transfer pipe 6 and the evaporation cell 4 are similarly evacuated, and a predetermined type of vapor deposition material filled in each evaporation cell 4 is heated and evaporated.

Here, vapor deposition is performed in the order of the first evaporation cell 4A, the second evaporation cell 4B, and the third evaporation cell 4C.
First, vapor deposition of the vapor deposition material filled in the first evaporation cell 4A is performed. That is, as shown in FIG. 9A, the shutter member 21 is moved by the first moving cylinder device 41 of the moving device 23 so that the first row is in the hole 22 row, and the upper dispersion container 7A. Vapor deposition is performed with the discharge port 12A connected to the open state.

When the deposition amount reaches a predetermined value, the next deposition material is deposited.
That is, as shown in FIG. 9 (b), the shutter member 21 is moved by the first moving cylinder device 41 so that the hole 22 in the second row is located in the discharge port 12 row, so that the middle stage dispersion container Evaporation is performed with the discharge port 12B connected to 7B open, and then the vapor deposition is performed with the discharge port 12C connected to the lower dispersion container 7C open as shown in FIG. 9C.

  When vapor deposition is performed after opening the discharge port 12, the shutter member 21 itself is positioned below the discharge port 12 that is the upper end of each discharge nozzle 11 by the second moving cylinder device 42. ing.

  Thus, since the shutter member 21 is positioned below the discharge port 12 during vapor deposition, it is possible to prevent the vapor deposition material vapor from adhering to the shutter member 21, and thus the vapor deposition material vapor shutter member 21. It is possible to prevent the film quality and the film thickness of the thin film formed on the glass substrate K, which are generated due to adhesion to the substrate, from changing.

  Further, in order to select the dispersion container 7 in the shutter member 21, a plurality of holes 22 rows corresponding to the number thereof are further arranged in accordance with the number of the dispersion containers 7. At this time, in addition to selecting an arbitrary vapor deposition material from among the three types, for example, the same type of vapor deposition material filled in two evaporation cells 4 can be vapor-deposited at the same time, or The same type of vapor deposition material filled can be vapor-deposited at the same time. Therefore, any vapor deposition pattern can be easily dealt with by simply changing the arrangement pattern of the attachment of the lid member 24.

  Further, when the vapor deposition material adheres to the position of the hole portion 22 in the closed state, that is, the cover member 24 becomes dirty, only the cover member 24 may be removed for cleaning, and therefore the shutter member 21 needs to be removed. Since there is no, cleaning work can be performed easily.
