Description of the invention (1) Detailed description of the invention The technical field of the invention The invention relates to a method for forming a thin film on various substrates such as glass substrates by magnetron sputtering and Device. Conventional technology In the past, as for a sputtering device for forming a thin film on a substrate having a large area such as a liquid crystal, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, it is known to face each other in a vacuum chamber a having a vacuum exhaust system. A substrate b and a target c are provided, and a magnet assembly g composed of a plurality of magnets e and f is freely reciprocated along a ball screw h on a magnetron sputtering cathode d on which the target is mounted, and an electric field is formed in front of the target c. The orthogonal moving free magnetic field is formed on the substrate b. In addition, in order to form a film on a large-area substrate with a low power density and a high rate, it is also known that a plurality of magnet assemblies g, g are arranged side by side as shown in Figs. Appropriately move the device and reciprocate the sputtering device for these assemblies along the back of the target (Patent No. 2 55 0 04). However, magnetic differences cause uneven magnetic field distributions, as shown in Figure 4, and it is difficult to form thick and uniform films. In order to make this distribution uniform, it has been proposed that, as shown in FIG. 5, a difference 配置 is arranged at the height position of the combination b, or as shown in FIG. 6, a difference L is arranged at the plane length (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9 — 1 2 5 2 4 Bulletin 2). The problem to be solved by the invention is that the substrate type and the film type are changed, and the film forming conditions are also changed. The above-mentioned paper size of the paper is applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) — I .------ ---- · ♦ ---- Order ί ----- i- · (Please read the notes on the back before filling out this page) Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 499494 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (2) Known examples have the disadvantages of having to adjust the height, length, and adjustments every time they change. In addition, as shown in FIG. 7, the surface of the rake C in front of the magnet assembly g has different arrangement of the magnetic poles of each assembly, so the rotation direction of the drift electron is opposite. Therefore, between the assemblies, the electron drift inlet side The target has a larger sputtering than the exit side, so-called uneven grooves 1 occur, and it is not appropriate to make the aforementioned adjustments and shorten the target life. Moreover, if no adjustment is made on the way, the film thickness distribution will also deteriorate. That is, adjustments must be made frequently. The present invention aims to provide a sputtering method and device that do not require magnetic field adjustment and are not prone to uneven grooves in a target. Means for solving the problem In order to achieve the foregoing objective, the sputtering method of the present invention is to set a substrate and a target in a vacuum chamber provided with a vacuum exhaust system, and a plurality of the magnetron sputtering cathodes in parallel with the target are provided in parallel. The complex magnet assembly of magnets forms a ring-shaped magnetic field orthogonal to the electric field in front of the target, and a magnetron discharge generated in front of the target is used to form a film on the substrate, and the magnets of each magnet assembly are arranged. The direction of rotation of the drifting electrons, which is restricted by the magnetic field of each magnet assembly and drifts in a ring in front of the cathode, is the same direction in the all-magnet assembly. The method of the present invention can be surely implemented by a sputtering device, in which the magnetic poles of the magnets constituting each magnet assembly facing the cathode side are different from each other, and the adjacent magnet assemblies are arranged adjacent to the magnets of the same magnetic pole, and are formed as each The magnet assembly is limited to a ring-shaped orbit of independent electron drift of each magnetic field. Preferably, the permanent magnets installed at the uniform height of the plate-shaped yoke constitute the magnets of the plurality of magnets constituting the magnet assembly, and are installed in the central part of the yoke. The paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification. (210 X 297 mm) -5-(Please read the notes on the back before filling this page)

Description of the Invention (3) The long permanent magnet and the ring-shaped permanent magnet surrounding it constitute the permanent magnet, and can also be reciprocated by parallel to the target The moving device moves all or part of the complex magnet assembly. Embodiments of the invention-The embodiments of the present invention will be described in accordance with the drawings. In Figures 8 and 9, reference numeral 1 indicates a vacuum exhaust system provided with a connection to a vacuum pump, a vacuum exhaust port 2 and a sputtering gas. The vacuum chamber 4 of the inlet 3 indicates a substrate such as a glass plate held in the vacuum chamber 1 by an appropriate substrate holding device, and 5 indicates a target provided in the vacuum chamber 1 opposite the substrate 4. The target 5 is connected to a power source such as an RF power source, a DC power source, and is mounted on a magnetron sputtering cathode 6 provided with a magnet on the back. When a film is formed on the substrate 4 by sputtering, the cathode 6 and the vacuum chamber are formed. A magnetron discharge occurs between the chamber wall 1 and the substrate 4 (anode). The magnet provided behind the cathode 6 is used to form a magnetic field orthogonal to the electric field in front of the target 5 and to confine electrons near the surface of the target 5 by at least two permanent magnets 8 a, 8 b The composed magnet assembly 8 is formed, and a ring-shaped latching magnetic pole 9 is formed in front of the cathode 5. The magnetic field lines are closed on the surface of the target 5, and the electrons can drift long. Since the electrons are limited to the magnetic pole 9, even if the sputtering power is small, the electron density is increased, the amount of impact of ions toward the target is increased, and the sputtering speed is increased. Generally speaking, it is configured that the target 5 uses a slightly larger size than the substrate 4, and when the sizes of the substrate 4 and the target 5 are large, the magnet assembly 8 is mounted on a movement constituted by a ball screw 10a Device 10, this ball screw 10a applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) along the paper size of the cathode 6 sheet, for example: 6_ (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) 1T --------- l ^ ew.

Description of the invention (4) The motor installed on the back to rotate By rotating the ball screw 10a forward and backward, the magnet assembly 8 'is reciprocated along the back of the cathode 6 and the magnetic field 9 sweeps the surface of the target 5, and the small magnet assembly 8 is used for magnetron sputtering. The magnetic poles facing the magnets 8 a and 8 b on the target 5 side of the magnet assembly 8 are set so that the magnetic poles are different from each other. The figure shows that the S pole is longer than the long rod magnet 8 a and the N pole is the angular shape surrounding it. The ring magnets 8 b are attached to the yoke 8 c so as to face each other. In this case, during magnetron sputtering, the electrons are constrained by the angularly reshaped magnetic field and drift. By setting the plurality of magnet assemblies 8, it is possible to shorten the moving distance of the mobile device 10 and increase the sputtering speed, but the magnets appearing on the target 5 side of each magnet assembly 8 are extremely different from each other, that is, as described above. The magnetic field 9 is not uniform, making it impossible to perform uniform film formation, and it is not appropriate to form uneven grooves in the target. Therefore, the present invention arranges the magnets of each magnet assembly 8 so that the rotation direction of the drifting electrons caused by the magnetic field drift of each magnet assembly 8 is the same direction, so that the magnetic field 9 formed by each magnet assembly 8 is uniformized, Films of uniform thickness are formed on the substrate 4 so that uneven grooves do not occur on the target 5. In order to make the rotating direction of the drifting electrons of each magnet assembly 8 in the same direction, the magnets 8 a and 8 b on the surface of the target 5 side are arranged on each magnet assembly 8 itself, so that mutually different magnetic poles appear in the surface direction. This causes the electrons to drift in a right-handed direction from the target 5 side, and further, by setting a plurality of parallel arrays side by side behind the cathode 6, for example, five sets of the magnet combination 8 configured by this magnet, so that the adjacent magnet combination 8 8Positive positioning, electrons circulate in the state of intercommunication (draft), so that the density of electrons on target 5 is uniformized.

Description of the invention (5), lifting uneven grooves. In the example shown in the figure, the recess (boss) of each magnet assembly 8 is inserted into a moving device 10 and two guide rails 1 1 of a ball screw, while maintaining a space between it and the target 5, while performing a stable reciprocating movement. The strengths of the magnets 8 a and 8 b are appropriately set according to sputtering conditions, such as the area, material, and thickness of the target. In addition, by using, for example, five sets of magnet assemblies 5, only 1/5 of the power density is input to each magnet assembly 8 compared to the case where the assembly is one set, so the occurrence of cooling, abnormal discharge, etc. is 1 / 5. Conversely, if the level is the same, 5 times the power can be input to the entire cathode to obtain 5 times the sputtering rate. [Example] An argon sputtering gas was introduced into the vacuum chamber 1, the pressure was adjusted to 0.7 Pa, and a DC power of 40 kW was input to the cathode 6. The substrate 4 is a glass having a thickness of 0.7 mm (mm), a width of 550 mm, and a length of 650 mm. In order to form an electrode wiring film for FPD thereon, a thickness of 10 mm, a width of 900 mm, and a length of 1,000 mm are installed. An aluminum target 5 is on the cathode 6. The magnet assembly 8 is provided with a long rod-shaped magnet 8a and a magnet 8b surrounding it, and has a rectangular planar shape with a width of 100 mm and a length of 100 mm. As shown in FIG. 8, N is held on the target side. S, N magnetic pole configuration. These magnets are used for those who generate a 200 Gauss horizontal magnetic field at 50 mm on the surface. As shown in the figure, five persons having the same structure as the magnet assembly 8 are mounted on the moving device 10 in parallel, and all of them are reciprocated 10 times per minute.

Description of the invention (6) Determine the film thickness distribution of each substrate 4. The result is a distribution of ± 5%, and the target 5 portion corresponding to the adjacent portion of each magnet assembly 8 is also consumed on average. For comparison, a magnet assembly of the magnet configuration shown in FIG. 4 was used to form a film with a thickness of 3 〇 Ο Ο A. As a result, unevenness and depression occurred on the target 5 at 1 500 k W h The target is open, and its film thickness distribution is ± 20%. [Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, since the magnets of each magnet assembly are arranged so that the rotation directions of the drift electrons of the complex magnet assembly used for magnetron sputtering are the same, the uniform film thickness distribution can be formed. The film is on a large-area substrate, which is not prone to uneven grooves on the target, which can prolong its life and improve the film formation efficiency. Since the device can be formed by using a magnet assembly with the same structure, there is no need to adjust the magnetic field, and the device can be simple. It can be produced cheaply, and its maintenance is also easy to wait. With the structure after the second patent application, the method of the present invention can be carried out reliably.
