濺鍍方法Sputtering method

本發明,係有關於用以在處理基板表面上形成特定之薄膜的濺鍍方法,特別是,係有關於作為標靶而使用導電性之標靶,並一面導入反應氣體一面藉由反應性濺鍍來進行薄膜形成之濺鍍方法。The present invention relates to a sputtering method for forming a specific thin film on a surface of a substrate to be processed, and in particular, to use a target which is conductive as a target, and to introduce a reactive gas while reactively splashing A sputtering method for performing film formation by plating.

作為在玻璃或是矽晶圓等之處理基板表面上而形成特定之薄膜的方法的其中一種,係存在有濺鍍法。此濺鍍法,係使電漿氛圍中之離子,朝向因應於欲在處理基板表面上所成膜之薄膜的組成而被製作成特定之形狀的標靶來加速並作衝擊,並使濺鍍粒子(標靶原子)飛散,而附著、堆積於處理基板表面上,並形成特定之薄膜。在進行此濺鍍時,係會有與由稀有氣體所成之濺鍍氣體一同地,而將氧或是氮等之特定的反應氣體導入,並藉由反應性濺鍍來形成由濺鍍粒子與反應氣體間之化合物所成的薄膜之情況。As one of the methods of forming a specific thin film on the surface of a substrate such as glass or tantalum wafer, there is a sputtering method. The sputtering method accelerates and impacts the ions in the plasma atmosphere toward the target which is formed into a specific shape in accordance with the composition of the film to be formed on the surface of the substrate to be processed, and causes sputtering. The particles (target atoms) scatter and adhere to and deposit on the surface of the processing substrate to form a specific film. In the sputtering, a specific reaction gas such as oxygen or nitrogen is introduced together with a sputtering gas formed of a rare gas, and the sputtering particles are formed by reactive sputtering. The film formed by the compound between the reaction gas and the reaction gas.

於此,在實施上述濺鍍法之濺鍍裝置中,一般而言,係在標靶之周圍,配置有被作了接地的達成作為陽極之功用的遮罩。若是如此這般地而在標靶之周圍配置遮罩,則當對於標靶施加直流電壓並在標靶之濺鍍面前方而使電漿產生時,電漿中之電子或是二次電子會朝向遮罩而流動。其結果,在標靶之濺鍍面的週緣區域處,電漿密度係變低,此週緣區域係並不會被濺鍍,並作為非侵蝕區域而殘留。Here, in the sputtering apparatus which performs the above-described sputtering method, generally, a mask which is grounded and which functions as an anode is disposed around the target. If the mask is placed around the target as such, when the DC voltage is applied to the target and the plasma is generated in front of the sputtering surface of the target, the electrons or secondary electrons in the plasma will Flows toward the mask. As a result, the plasma density is lowered at the peripheral region of the sputtering surface of the target, and the peripheral region is not sputtered and remains as a non-erosion region.

當濺鍍面之週緣區域作為非侵蝕區域而殘留了的情況時,特別是當作為標靶而使用鋁等之導電性標靶,並將氧等之反應氣體導入而藉由反應性濺鍍來形成氧化物之薄膜的情況時,由於反應性濺鍍時之逆堆積,於該週緣區域處,氧化物係會附著並堆積。亦即是,濺鍍面之週緣區域,係會被絕緣膜所覆蓋。在此種狀態下,於該週緣區域處,電漿中之電子或是二次電子係會作充電(charge up),起因於此充電,會誘發異常放電,而會有對於良好之薄膜形成造成阻礙的問題。When the peripheral region of the sputtering surface remains as a non-erosion region, in particular, a conductive target such as aluminum is used as a target, and a reaction gas such as oxygen is introduced and reactive sputtering is used. In the case of forming an oxide film, due to the reverse deposition during reactive sputtering, the oxide system adheres and accumulates in the peripheral region. That is, the peripheral region of the sputtered surface is covered by the insulating film. In this state, at the peripheral region, the electrons in the plasma or the secondary electrons are charged up, which causes an abnormal discharge due to the charging, and may cause a good film formation. The problem of hindrance.

於此,藉由專利文獻1,係週知有:當對於標靶施加負的直流電壓並對於標靶作濺鍍時,將該施加電壓以一定之脈衝週期來使其變化為正的電位之濺鍍方法。Here, Patent Document 1 knows that when a negative DC voltage is applied to a target and a target is sputtered, the applied voltage is changed to a positive potential with a predetermined pulse period. Sputtering method.

在上述專利文獻1所記載之濺鍍方法中,於濺鍍之中,滯留在標靶之週緣區域處的充電電荷,係在被施加正的電壓時而被抵消。因此,就算是標靶之週緣區域被絕緣膜所覆蓋,起因於充電所產生之異常放電(電弧放電)亦係被抑制。然而,在每一次之於標靶處被施加有正的電壓時,由於電漿係暫時性的消失,因此,會有使濺鍍速率降低的問題。因此,對於1枚之處理基板的薄膜形成時間係變長,而生產性係為差。又,係成為需要用以施加以一定之脈衝週期而改變極性的電壓之濺鍍電源,而導致成本變高。In the sputtering method described in Patent Document 1, the charge charge remaining in the peripheral region of the target during sputtering is canceled when a positive voltage is applied. Therefore, even if the peripheral region of the target is covered with the insulating film, the abnormal discharge (arc discharge) due to charging is suppressed. However, when a positive voltage is applied to the target every time, since the plasma system temporarily disappears, there is a problem that the sputtering rate is lowered. Therefore, the film formation time of one processing substrate becomes long, and the productivity is poor. Further, it is a sputtering power source that is required to apply a voltage that changes polarity with a certain pulse period, resulting in high cost.

本發明,係有鑑於上述之點,而以提供一種:不會受到被形成於標靶之週緣區域處的絕緣膜之影響,而能夠在維持著高濺鍍速度的狀態下而形成薄膜,並且不會導致成本變高的之反應性濺鍍方法一事,作為課題。The present invention has been made in view of the above, and provides a film which can be formed without being affected by an insulating film formed at a peripheral region of a target, while maintaining a high sputtering speed. A reactive sputtering method that does not cause a high cost is a problem.

為了解決上述課題,申請項1中所記載之濺鍍方法,係為一面將濺鍍氣體和反應氣體導入至濺鍍室內,一面對於在此濺鍍室內而被與處理基板相對向地作了配置的導電性之標靶投入電力,而在濺鍍室內形成電漿氛圍,以對於各標靶作濺鍍,並藉由反應性濺鍍而在前述處理基板表面上形成特定之薄膜的濺鍍方法,其特徵為:若是投入至前述標靶處之電力的積算值到達了特定值,則停止前述反應氣體之導入,並導入濺鍍氣體而對於標靶作濺鍍。In order to solve the above problem, the sputtering method described in the first aspect of the invention is that the sputtering gas and the reaction gas are introduced into the sputtering chamber while being disposed opposite to the processing substrate in the sputtering chamber. A sputtering method in which a conductive film is put into a power, and a plasma atmosphere is formed in a sputtering chamber to perform sputtering on each target, and a specific thin film is formed on the surface of the processing substrate by reactive sputtering. When the integrated value of the electric power input to the target reaches a specific value, the introduction of the reaction gas is stopped, and a sputtering gas is introduced to perform sputtering on the target.

若依據本發明,則若是投入至標靶處之電力的積算值到達了特定值,則判斷為係由於反應性濺鍍時之逆堆積而在標靶之濺鍍面的週緣區域處堆積了絕緣物,並停止反應氣體之導入,亦即是,係將對於處理基板之薄膜形成暫時 性地中斷。而後,僅將由稀有氣體所成之濺鍍氣體作導入,並對標靶作濺鍍。於此狀態下,從標靶而來之導電性的濺鍍粒子,係例如與電漿中之電子相碰撞,並附著在標靶之週緣區域處而作逆堆積。According to the present invention, if the integrated value of the electric power input to the target reaches a specific value, it is judged that the insulation is deposited at the peripheral portion of the sputtering surface of the target due to the reverse deposition at the time of reactive sputtering. And stopping the introduction of the reaction gas, that is, forming a film for processing the substrate temporarily Sexually interrupted. Then, only the sputtering gas formed by the rare gas is introduced, and the target is sputtered. In this state, the conductive sputter particles from the target collide with, for example, electrons in the plasma, and adhere to the peripheral region of the target to be reversely stacked.

此時,絕緣膜上之充電電荷,係藉由濺鍍粒子或是電離了的濺鍍氣體離子而被作中和並消失,或者是藉由由於恆常被作濺鍍而使身為導電性的標靶之濺鍍面與週緣區域間再度的導通,而流動至標靶側並消失。而後,若是週緣區域之絕緣物再度地被導電性之薄膜所覆蓋,則再度開始反應氣體之導入,並再度開始對於處理基板之薄膜形成。At this time, the charge on the insulating film is neutralized and disappeared by sputtering particles or ionized sputtering gas ions, or is made conductive by being constantly sputtered. The target's sputtered surface is again turned on and the peripheral area is turned on, and flows to the target side and disappears. Then, if the insulator in the peripheral region is again covered with the conductive film, the introduction of the reaction gas is started again, and the film formation for the substrate is resumed.

如此這般,在本發明中,由於係並未為在對於1枚之基板的薄膜形成時而使投入電力作變化者,因此,能夠在維持於最適當之濺鍍速率的狀態下,而對於標靶作濺鍍,並能夠達成高生產性。又,由於係將標靶之週緣區域,藉由與此標靶相同組成之導電膜而定期地作覆蓋,因此,起因於充電所產生的異常放電之誘發係被防止,而能夠一直良好地對於標靶作使用並進行薄膜形成,直到標靶之壽命結束為止。進而,在為了將對於被形成在標靶處之絕緣膜的由於充電所造成之影響消除時,係並不需要另外之構成零件,而不會有導致成本提高的事態。As described above, in the present invention, since the input electric power is not changed when the film is formed on one of the substrates, it is possible to maintain the optimum sputtering rate while maintaining the optimum sputtering rate. The target is sputtered and can achieve high productivity. Further, since the peripheral region of the target is periodically covered by the conductive film having the same composition as the target, the induction of abnormal discharge due to charging is prevented, and it is possible to consistently The target is used and film formation is performed until the end of the life of the target. Further, in order to eliminate the influence on the insulating film formed at the target due to charging, no additional constituent parts are required, and there is no possibility of causing an increase in cost.

又,在申請項2中所記載之濺鍍方法,係為將處理基板依序搬送至濺鍍室內,並一面將濺鍍氣體和反應氣體導入至此濺鍍室內,一面對於在此濺鍍室內而被與處理基板相對向地作了配置的導電性之標靶投入電力,而在濺鍍室 內形成電漿氛圍,以對於各標靶作濺鍍,並藉由反應性濺鍍而在前述處理基板表面上形成特定之薄膜的濺鍍方法,其特徵為:若是投入至前述標靶處之電力的積算值到達了特定值,則將假基板搬入至與前述標靶相對向之位置處,而停止前述反應氣體之導入,並導入濺鍍氣體而對於標靶作濺鍍。Further, in the sputtering method described in the second aspect of the invention, the processing substrate is sequentially transferred to the sputtering chamber, and the sputtering gas and the reaction gas are introduced into the sputtering chamber, and the sputtering chamber is placed therein. The conductive target disposed opposite to the processing substrate is put into the power, and is in the sputtering chamber. a sputtering method in which a plasma atmosphere is formed, a specific thin film is formed on the surface of the processing substrate by reactive sputtering, and is characterized by: if it is input to the target When the integrated value of the electric power reaches a specific value, the dummy substrate is carried to a position facing the target, the introduction of the reaction gas is stopped, and a sputtering gas is introduced to sputter the target.

在本發明中,若是當前述反應氣體導入之停止時,將對於前述標靶之投入電力,設定為較反應氣體導入時者為更高,則能夠將薄膜形成被中斷之時間縮短,並使生產性提高,而為理想。In the present invention, when the introduction of the reaction gas is stopped, the input power to the target is set to be higher than when the reaction gas is introduced, and the time during which the film formation is interrupted can be shortened, and the production can be shortened. Sexual improvement, but ideal.

又,若是使為了在前述標靶之濺鍍面前方處形成隧道狀之磁通量而設置了的磁石組裝體,沿著標靶之背面而平行地作往返移動,並當前述反應氣體導入之停止時,將此磁石組裝體之移動幅度,設為較反應氣體導入時者為更小,則藉由將磁通量密度變高之位置靠向標靶之濺鍍面的中央側,在週緣區域處所被逆堆積之導電性薄膜,係會一直延伸至其之中央側,其結果,能夠將標靶之週緣區域,確實地藉由與此標靶相同組成之薄膜來作覆蓋。In addition, the magnet assembly provided to form a tunnel-shaped magnetic flux in front of the sputtering surface of the target reciprocates in parallel along the back surface of the target, and when the introduction of the reaction gas is stopped The movement width of the magnet assembly is set to be smaller than when the reaction gas is introduced, and the position where the magnetic flux density is increased is directed to the center side of the sputtering surface of the target, and is reversed at the peripheral region. The deposited conductive film is extended to the center side thereof, and as a result, the peripheral region of the target can be surely covered by a film having the same composition as the target.

如同以上所說明一般,本發明之濺鍍方法,係可得到下述之效果:亦即是,係並不會受到被形成於標靶之週緣區域處的絕緣膜之影響,而能夠在維持著高濺鍍速度的狀態下而形成薄膜,並且不會導致成本變高。As described above, the sputtering method of the present invention can obtain the effect that it is not affected by the insulating film formed at the peripheral region of the target, and can be maintained. The film is formed in a state of high sputtering speed without causing cost increase.

若是參考圖1並作說明,則符號1,係為實施本發明之反應性濺鍍方法的濺鍍裝置。濺鍍裝置1,係為線內(in-line)式者,並具備有經由旋轉幫浦或是渦輪分子幫浦等之真空保持手段(未圖示)而能夠保持於特定之真空度的濺鍍室11。在濺鍍室11之上部空間處,係被設置有基板搬送手段2。基板搬送手段2,係具備有週知之構造,並具備著被裝載有例如處理基板S之載體21,將驅動手段作間歇驅動,而能夠將處理基板S依序搬送至與後述之標靶相對向的位置處。Referring to Fig. 1 and the description, reference numeral 1 is a sputtering apparatus for carrying out the reactive sputtering method of the present invention.

As the reaction gas, it is suitably selected in accordance with the composition of the film to be formed on the surface of the substrate S, and a gas containing oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen, ozone, water or hydrogen peroxide is used, or It is such a mixed gas or the like. On the lower side of the sputtering chamber 11, a magnetron sputtering electrode C is disposed.

磁控管濺鍍電極C,係具備有以面臨濺鍍室11的方式而被設置了的略直方體(俯視時為長方形)之標靶41,標靶41,係被連接於濺鍍電源E處,並成為能夠經介於濺鍍電源E而被施加負的直流電壓。於此,標靶41,係因應於Al、Mo、Ti、Cu或是ITO等之欲在處理基板S上所成膜之薄膜的組成,而藉由週知的方法來分別製作,濺鍍面411之面積,係被設定為較處理基板S之外形尺寸更大。又,標靶41,係在當濺鍍中而對於標靶41作冷卻之背板42處,經由銦或是錫等之接合材而被作接合。在將標靶41接合於背板42處的狀態下,以使濺鍍面411與處理基板S相對向的方式,來經介於絕緣板43地而裝著在磁控管濺鍍電極C之框架44處。在裝著了標靶41的情況時,於標靶41之周圍處,係被安裝有被作了接地之達成作為陽極之作用的遮罩45。The magnetron sputtering electrode C is provided with a target 41 which is provided in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped (rectangular in plan view) facing the sputtering chamber 11, and the target 41 is connected to the sputtering power source E. At the same time, it becomes a negative DC voltage that can be applied via the sputtering power source E. Here, the target 41 is produced by a known method in accordance with a composition of a film to be formed on the substrate S, such as Al, Mo, Ti, Cu, or ITO, by a known method. The area of 411 is set to be larger than the size of the processing substrate S. Further, the target 41 is joined to the backing plate 42 which is cooled by the target 41 during sputtering, and is joined by a bonding material such as indium or tin. In a state where the target 41 is bonded to the backing plate 42, the sputtering surface 411 and the processing substrate S are opposed to each other so as to be attached to the magnetron sputtering electrode C via the insulating plate 43. At frame 44. In the case where the target 41 is mounted, a mask 45 which is grounded to function as an anode is attached to the periphery of the target 41.

磁控管濺鍍電極C,係於標靶41之後方處具備有磁石組裝體5。磁石組裝體5,係具備有被與標靶41平行地設置了的支持板(軛)51,此支持板51,係由將磁石之吸著力作放大的磁性材料製之平板所構成。在支持板51上,以位置於在支持板51之長度方向上作延伸之中心線上的方式而被作了配置的中央磁石52、和以包圍此中央磁石52之周圍的方式,沿著支持板51之上面外週而被配置為環狀的週邊磁石53,係將標靶側之極性作改變地而被設置。The magnetron sputtering electrode C is provided with a magnet assembly 5 behind the target 41. The magnet assembly 5 is provided with a support plate (yoke) 51 provided in parallel with the target 41. The support plate 51 is formed of a flat plate made of a magnetic material that amplifies the attraction force of the magnet. On the support plate 51, a central magnet 52 disposed in such a manner as to be positioned on a center line extending in the longitudinal direction of the support plate 51, and a periphery surrounding the central magnet 52, along the support plate 51 The peripheral magnet 53 which is arranged in a ring shape on the outer circumference is provided to change the polarity of the target side.

以使中央磁石52之換算為同磁性化後的體積成為將其之周圍作包圍的週邊磁石53之換算為同磁性化後的體積之和(週邊磁石:中心磁石:週邊磁石=1:2:1)的方式,來作設計。藉由此,在標靶41之濺鍍面411的前方,係分別被形成有相互平衡了的閉迴圈之隧道狀的磁通量M。而,在標靶41之前方(濺鍍面411)側處而電離了的電子、以及經由濺鍍而產生了的二次電子,係被作捕捉,藉由此,而將在標靶41前方處之電子密度提高,而能夠提升電漿密度,並能夠提高濺鍍速率。In the case where the central magnet 52 is converted into the same magnetized volume, the surrounding magnet 53 surrounded by the surrounding magnet is converted into the sum of the magnetized volumes (peripheral magnet: central magnet: peripheral magnet = 1:2: 1) The way to design. Thereby, in front of the sputtering surface 411 of the target 41, a tunnel-shaped magnetic flux M having a closed loop that is balanced with each other is formed. On the other hand, the electrons that are ionized on the side of the target 41 (sputter surface 411) and the secondary electrons generated by the sputtering are captured, and thus, will be in front of the target 41. The electron density is increased, which increases the plasma density and increases the sputtering rate.

又,上述支持板51之橫寬幅,係以成為較標靶41之寬幅更小的方式而被制訂尺寸(參考圖1),在磁石組裝體5之支持板51的背面處,係被設置有螺帽構件51a。在此螺帽構件51a處,係被螺合有進送螺桿61,在進送螺桿61的其中一端處,係被設置有馬達62。而後,若是驅動馬達62並使進送螺桿61作旋轉,則磁石組裝體5,係沿著標靶41之背面而在標靶41之橫方向的一定之移動幅度D1中作往返移動。藉由此,能夠使磁通量密度為高之位置在標靶41之橫方向上作變化,而能夠將標靶41之濺鍍面411略均等地作侵蝕,並能夠將標靶41之利用效率提升。於此情況,磁石組裝體5之移動幅度D1,係以使侵蝕區域在標靶41之濺鍍面411中而一直延伸至其橫方向之端部為止的方式,而適宜作設定。Further, the horizontal width of the support plate 51 is dimensioned to be smaller than the width of the target 41 (refer to FIG. 1), and is provided at the back surface of the support plate 51 of the magnet assembly 5. A nut member 51a is provided. At the nut member 51a, a feed screw 61 is screwed, and at one end of the feed screw 61, a motor 62 is provided. Then, when the drive motor 62 rotates the feed screw 61, the magnet assembly 5 reciprocates along the back surface of the target 41 in a certain movement width D1 of the target 41 in the lateral direction. Thereby, the position where the magnetic flux density is high can be changed in the lateral direction of the target 41, and the sputtering surface 411 of the target 41 can be slightly eroded, and the utilization efficiency of the target 41 can be improved. . In this case, the movement width D1 of the magnet assembly 5 is preferably set so that the erosion region extends in the sputtering surface 411 of the target 41 to the end portion in the lateral direction.

而後,若是經由基板搬送手段2來將處理基板S搬送至與標靶41相對向之位置處,並經介於氣體導入手段3而將特定之濺鍍氣體以及反應氣體導入,再經由濺鍍電源5來施加負的直流電壓,則係形成與處理基板S以及標靶41相垂直之電場,並在標靶41之濺鍍面411前方產生電漿,而使標靶41被作濺鍍,並在處理基板S之表面上,形成由此被作了濺鍍的濺鍍粒子與反應氣體間之化合物所成的薄膜。Then, if the processing substrate S is transported to the position facing the target 41 via the substrate transfer means 2, the specific sputtering gas and the reaction gas are introduced through the gas introduction means 3, and then the sputtering power source is supplied. 5, when a negative DC voltage is applied, an electric field perpendicular to the processing substrate S and the target 41 is formed, and plasma is generated in front of the sputtering surface 411 of the target 41, so that the target 41 is sputtered, and On the surface of the substrate S, a film of a compound between the sputtered particles and the reaction gas thus formed is formed.

於此,在上述濺鍍裝置1中,由於係在標靶41之周圍處設置有遮罩45,因此,當在濺鍍面411前方而使電漿產生時,電漿中之電子或是二次電子會朝向遮罩45而流動。其結果,在標靶41之濺鍍面411的週緣區域421處,電漿密度係變低,此週緣區域412係並不會被濺鍍,並作為非侵蝕區域而殘留(參考圖2(a))。Here, in the sputtering apparatus 1 described above, since the mask 45 is provided around the target 41, when the plasma is generated in front of the sputtering surface 411, the electrons in the plasma or the second The secondary electrons flow toward the mask 45. As a result, at the peripheral region 421 of the sputtering surface 411 of the target 41, the plasma density is lowered, and the peripheral region 412 is not sputtered and remains as a non-erosion region (refer to Fig. 2 (a )).

例如,若是作為標靶41而使用鋁之導電性標靶,並將由氧所成之反應氣體導入,而藉由反應性濺鍍來形成氧化物之薄膜,則由於反應性濺鍍時之逆堆積,於該週緣區域412處,氧化物係會附著並堆積,而該週緣區域412係被絕緣膜I所覆蓋。若是在此種狀態下而繼續進行由濺鍍所致之薄膜形成,則在被絕緣膜I所覆蓋之週緣區域412處,電漿中之電子或是二次電子係會作充電(charge up)(參考圖2(b))。故而,係有必要設為不會使起因於此種充電所導致的異常放電被誘發。For example, if a conductive target of aluminum is used as the target 41 and a reaction gas made of oxygen is introduced, and a film of an oxide is formed by reactive sputtering, the reverse deposition due to reactive sputtering At the peripheral region 412, the oxide system adheres and accumulates, and the peripheral region 412 is covered by the insulating film 1. If the film formation by sputtering is continued in this state, the electrons in the plasma or the secondary electrons are charged up at the peripheral region 412 covered by the insulating film 1. (Refer to Figure 2(b)). Therefore, it is necessary to set such that abnormal discharge caused by such charging is not induced.

在本實施形態中,係設為下述之構成:在濺鍍電源E處,設置將已投入至標靶41中之電力的積算值計算出來之算出手段,若是此算出了的積算值到達了特定值,則經介於質量流控制器31來將對於濺鍍室11之反應氣體的導入停止,並且經由基板搬送手段2來將假(dummy)基板(未圖示)搬送至與標靶41相對向之位置處,而後,僅將濺鍍氣體作導入,而對於標靶41作濺鍍。另外,所應設定之積算時間、以及在反應氣體導入停止狀態下的標靶41之濺鍍時間,係因應所使用之標靶41或是所導入之反應氣體的種類,而適宜作設定。In the present embodiment, the sputtering power source E is provided with a calculation means for calculating the integrated value of the electric power that has been input into the target 41, and the calculated integrated value is reached. When the specific value is passed, the introduction of the reaction gas to the sputtering chamber 11 is stopped by the mass flow controller 31, and a dummy substrate (not shown) is transferred to the target 41 via the substrate transfer means 2. At the opposite position, only the sputtering gas is introduced, and the target 41 is sputtered. In addition, the integration time to be set and the sputtering time of the target 41 in the state in which the reaction gas is introduced are appropriately set depending on the type of the target 41 to be used or the type of the reaction gas to be introduced.

藉由此,當投入至標靶41中之電力的積算值到達了特定值時,則判斷為:由於反應性濺鍍時之逆堆積,在標靶41之週緣區域412處係堆積了絕緣物I。而後,若是在反應氣體導入停止狀態下,而對於導電性之標靶41作濺鍍,則從標靶41而來之導電性的濺鍍粒子,係例如與電漿中之氬離子相碰撞,並附著在標靶41之週緣區域412處而作逆堆積。Thereby, when the integrated value of the electric power input into the target 41 reaches a specific value, it is judged that the insulator is deposited at the peripheral region 412 of the target 41 due to the reverse deposition at the time of reactive sputtering. I. Then, when the target gas 41 is sputtered while the reaction gas is introduced, the conductive sputter particles from the target 41 collide with, for example, argon ions in the plasma. And attached to the peripheral region 412 of the target 41 for reverse stacking.

此時,絕緣膜I表面之充電電荷,係藉由濺鍍粒子或是電離了的濺鍍氣體離子而被作中和,或者是藉由由於恆常被作濺鍍而使身為導電性的標靶之濺鍍面411與週緣區域412間再度的導通,而流動至標靶412側並消失。而,週緣區域412之絕緣物I,係被身為與標靶41相同之組成的導電性之薄膜F所覆蓋(亦即是,標靶41之濺鍍面411係包含其之外週緣部412地而成為同電位)。另外,為了將薄膜形成被作中斷之時間縮短並將生產性提高,在反應氣體之導入停止狀態下的濺鍍時,係以將從濺鍍電源E而來之投入電力設定為較反應氣體導入時的投入電力更高為理想。於此情況,當標靶為鋁時,係只要將投入電力提高10%左右即可。At this time, the charge charge on the surface of the insulating film I is neutralized by sputtering particles or ionized sputtering gas ions, or is made conductive by being constantly sputtered. The target sputtering surface 411 and the peripheral region 412 are again turned on, and flow to the target 412 side and disappear. On the other hand, the insulator I of the peripheral region 412 is covered by the conductive film F having the same composition as the target 41 (that is, the sputtered surface 411 of the target 41 includes the outer peripheral portion 412 thereof. The ground becomes the same potential). In addition, in order to shorten the time for the film formation to be interrupted and to improve the productivity, the sputtering power from the sputtering power source E is set to be more reactive gas introduction during the sputtering in the state where the introduction of the reaction gas is stopped. It is ideal when the input power is higher. In this case, when the target is aluminum, it is only necessary to increase the input electric power by about 10%.

若是絕緣物I被導電性之薄膜F所覆蓋,則經由基板搬送手段2來將處理基板S搬送至與標靶41相對向之位置處,並使質量流控制器31作動,而再度開始反應氣體之導入,並再度開始藉由反應性濺鍍而對於處理基板S之薄膜形成。When the insulator I is covered with the conductive film F, the substrate S is transferred to the position facing the target 41 via the substrate transfer means 2, and the mass flow controller 31 is activated to start the reaction gas again. The introduction is carried out, and the film formation of the substrate S is again initiated by reactive sputtering.

如此這般,在本實施形態中,由於係並未為在對於1枚之處理基板S的薄膜形成時而使從濺鍍電源E所對於標靶41之投入電力作變化者,因此,能夠在維持於最適當之濺鍍速率的狀態下,而對於標靶41作濺鍍,並能夠達成高生產性。又,由於係將標靶41之週緣區域412,藉由與此標靶41相同組成之導電膜而定期地作覆蓋,因此,起因於充電所產生的異常放電之誘發係被防止,而能夠一直良好地對於標靶41作使用並進行薄膜形成,直到標靶41之壽命結束為止。進而,在為了將對於被形成在標靶41處之絕緣膜I的由於充電所造成之影響消除時,係並不需要另外之構成零件,而不會有導致成本提高的事態。In this manner, in the present embodiment, since the input power to the target 41 from the sputtering power source E is not changed when the film of the one processing substrate S is formed, it is possible to The target 41 is sputtered while maintaining the optimum sputtering rate, and high productivity can be achieved. Further, since the peripheral region 412 of the target 41 is periodically covered by the conductive film having the same composition as the target 41, the induction of abnormal discharge due to charging is prevented, and the The target 41 is used satisfactorily and film formation is performed until the end of the life of the target 41. Further, in order to eliminate the influence on the insulating film 1 formed at the target 41 due to charging, no additional constituent parts are required, and there is no possibility of causing an increase in cost.

另外,在上述實施形態中,較理想,係將在反應氣體停止時之磁石組裝體5的移動幅度D2,設為較反應氣體導入(薄膜形成)時之移動幅度D1更小(參考圖4)。於此情況,移動寬幅D2,係因應於所使用之標靶41或是所導入之反應氣體的種類,而適宜作設定。藉由此,能夠將磁通量密度變高之位置靠向標靶41之濺鍍面411的中央側處,藉由此,在週緣區域412處而被作逆堆積之薄膜F,係一直延伸至其之中央側處,而能夠將週緣區域412藉由與標靶41相同組成之導電膜F來確實地作覆蓋。Further, in the above-described embodiment, it is preferable that the movement width D2 of the magnet assembly 5 when the reaction gas is stopped is set to be smaller than the movement width D1 when the reaction gas is introduced (film formation) (refer to FIG. 4). . In this case, the movement width D2 is appropriately set depending on the type of the target 41 to be used or the type of the reaction gas to be introduced. Thereby, the position at which the magnetic flux density is increased can be made to be toward the center side of the sputtering surface 411 of the target 41, whereby the film F which is reversely stacked at the peripheral portion 412 is extended to the same. At the center side, the peripheral region 412 can be surely covered by the conductive film F having the same composition as the target 41.

[實施例1][Example 1]

在本實施例1中,作為標靶41,係使用藉由週知之方法而成形為俯視略長方形之鋁製標靶,並接合在擋板42處。又,作為處理基板S,係使用玻璃基板,作為濺鍍條件,係對於質量流控制器31作控制,而將身為濺鍍氣體之氬氣的流量設為45sccm,將身為反應氣體之氧氣的流量設定為150sccm,並將對於標靶41之投入電力設定為1.8kW。而後,經由基板搬送手段2來將處理基板S搬送至與標靶41相對向之位置處,並藉由反應性濺鍍,而在處理基板S表面上依序形成了Al2 O3 膜。於此情況,係將1枚之處理基板的濺鍍時間,設為了930秒。在濺鍍中,對於藉由濺鍍電源E而在每單位時間(1分鐘間)中所產生之電弧放電作了計數。於此情況,係藉由將放電電壓降低至基準值以下的現象檢測出來,而檢測出電弧放電之發生。In the first embodiment, as the target 41, an aluminum target which is formed into a rectangular shape in a plan view by a known method is used and joined to the shutter 42. Further, as the processing substrate S, a glass substrate is used, and as the sputtering condition, the mass flow controller 31 is controlled, and the flow rate of the argon gas which is a sputtering gas is set to 45 sccm, and oxygen as a reaction gas is used. The flow rate was set to 150 sccm, and the input power to the target 41 was set to 1.8 kW. Then, the processing substrate S is transferred to a position facing the target 41 via the substrate transfer means 2, and an Al 2 O 3 film is sequentially formed on the surface of the processing substrate S by reactive sputtering. In this case, the sputtering time of one of the processing substrates was set to 930 seconds. In the sputtering, the arc discharge generated per unit time (1 minute) by the sputtering power source E was counted. In this case, the occurrence of the arc discharge is detected by detecting the phenomenon that the discharge voltage is lower than the reference value.

此時,若是對於標靶之投入電力的積算值(kWh)到達了20kWh,則暫時停止氧氣之導入,並將氬氣之流量設為45sccm,將對於標靶41之投入電力設定為2.0kW,並進行濺鍍,直到所堆積之膜的厚度到達了50nm為止,而使其之週邊區域412成為被薄膜F所覆蓋。At this time, if the integrated value (kWh) of the input power to the target reaches 20 kWh, the introduction of oxygen is temporarily stopped, and the flow rate of the argon gas is set to 45 sccm, and the input power to the target 41 is set to 2.0 kW. Sputtering is performed until the thickness of the deposited film reaches 50 nm, and the peripheral region 412 is covered by the film F.

(比較例1)(Comparative Example 1)

作為比較例1,採用與上述相同之條件,而藉由反應性濺鍍來在處理基板S之表面上連續地依序形成Al2 O3 膜。As Comparative Example 1, an Al 2 O 3 film was successively formed on the surface of the handle substrate S by reactive sputtering under the same conditions as described above.

若依據上述比較例1,則若是對於標靶41之投入電力的積算值(kWh)超過了20kWh,則係在每一分鐘間而確認有複數次之電弧放電的發生,若是超過22kWh,則電弧放電係多數發生,而成為無法進行由反應性濺鍍所致之薄膜形成。相對於此,若依據實施例1,則就算是標靶41之積算電力到達了35kWh,在每一分鐘間之電弧放電的發生次數,亦係為1~3次,而能夠進行由反應性濺鍍所致之良好的薄膜形成。According to the first comparative example, if the integrated value (kWh) of the input electric power to the target 41 exceeds 20 kWh, the occurrence of the plurality of arc discharges is confirmed every minute, and if it exceeds 22 kWh, the arc is generated. Most of the discharge systems occur, and film formation by reactive sputtering cannot be performed. On the other hand, according to the first embodiment, even if the integrated electric power of the target 41 reaches 35 kWh, the number of occurrences of arc discharge per minute is also 1 to 3 times, and reactive splashing can be performed. Good film formation due to plating.
