Description
The present invention relates to a sputtering apparatus for controlling the residual stress of a substrate.
Sputtering is a main method for depositing a thin film on a flat substrate such as a glass substrate constituting a flat panel display device such as a liquid crystal display or an organic light-emitting diode device.
1, a conventional sputtering apparatus generally includes a sputtering target, a magnet positioned behind the sputtering target, a floating mask for masking the outer end of the flat substrate from the upper surface of the flat substrate, And a ground shield. In the sputtering apparatus, a magnet located at the rear of the sputtering target is activated, power is applied to the sputtering target, and the sputtering target is sputtered while the plasma discharge progresses to deposit a thin film on the surface of the substrate.
The floating mask is formed such that the inner surface of the mask hole is inclined so that the target material smoothly flows into the thin film forming region of the flat substrate. Also, the ground shield is also formed such that the inner surface of the shield hole is inclined, and the bottom edge of the inner surface is positioned on the same vertical plane as the top edge of the inner surface of the mask hole. The sputtering proceeds in a state where the ground shield and the planar substrate are grounded and the floating mask is floated. In the region facing the floating mask, the plasma density is relatively increased, and the distribution of relatively large positive charges is increased.
In addition, the thin film of the flat substrate has a difference in deposition density between the outer side of the flat substrate and the thin film formed at the central portion. This phenomenon is due to the fact that relatively large negative charges are distributed on the outer side of the substrate during the sputtering process, and a high energy positive charge collides against the thin film to increase the deposition density of the thin film. The compressive stress is generated in the outer side of the flat substrate, and warping may occur. Particularly, as the area of the flat substrate is increased or the thickness thereof is thinner, there arises a problem that the warping phenomenon is increased due to the difference in the deposition density between the center portion and the outer portion.
Conventionally, the sputtering apparatus uses a method of changing the structure or driving method of the magnet in order to reduce the difference in the deposition density between the central portion and the outer portion of the flat substrate. However, additional design changes are required and the variation of the deposition density is reduced There is a limit to the effect.
The present invention provides a sputtering apparatus capable of reducing a difference in deposition density between a central portion and a lateral portion of a thin film deposited on a flat substrate, thereby reducing a residual stress deviation of the flat substrate.
A sputtering apparatus for controlling a residual stress of a substrate according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a chamber part including a chamber housing and providing a space in which a sputtering process is performed, a sputtering target part including a sputtering target, And a masking portion for supporting a flat substrate, which faces the sputtering target, and a masking portion for masking an outer side portion of the flat substrate, wherein the masking portion is located on the upper side of the flat substrate and corresponds to a thin film region of the flat substrate And a shielding hole located above the floating mask and electrically insulated from the floating mask, the shielding hole having an area larger than that of the masking hole. And the floating mask includes a ground shield And the ground shield is formed so as to expose the upper surface of the floating mask through the shield hole at a predetermined floating exposure width from the inner surface of the floating mask .
Further, the floating mask is formed such that the upper edge of the inner side is located on the outer side of the lower edge, and the ground shield is formed such that the lower edge of the inner side is spaced from the upper edge of the inner surface of the floating mask by the floating exposure width . At this time, the floating exposure width may be 0.5 to 5.0 times the slant width (CW) of the inner surface of the floating mask.
In addition, the ground shield may be formed such that an inner surface of the shield hole is movable outward. In this case, the ground shield may further include a coupling hole extending between the shield hole and the outer side in the outward direction. The masking portion may include a shield fixing plate having a fixing groove and supporting the ground shield, And a shield moving unit including a shield fixing screw coupled to the groove.
The sputtering apparatus for controlling the residual stress of the substrate of the present invention controls the difference in the deposition density between the center and the outer side in the thin film deposited on the flat substrate to control the residual stress deviation of the center and outer sides of the thin film, .
Further, the sputtering apparatus for controlling the residual stress of the substrate of the present invention improves the warping of the flat substrate when the metal thin film is formed by sputtering of the metal sputtering target, and the thin film is peeled There is an effect of reducing the amount of water.
Further, the sputtering apparatus for controlling the residual stress of the substrate of the present invention has the effect of preventing the adhesion force at the thin film interface from being reduced when the thin film is deposited in multiple layers.
