Briefly, continuous vacuum sputtering equipment usually consists of a feed chamber (medium and low vacuum), a membrane chamber (high vacuum) and an discharge chamber (medium and low vacuum), the substrate to be processed. The chambers are continuously input or rotated one by one. Among them, since the feed cavity (l〇adl〇ck) must repeatedly pump down and venting, and the mineral film cavity is maintained under a high vacuum state without breaking the vacuum, the industry It is generally believed that the vacuuming and vacuuming efficiency of the inlet cavity will have a direct and significant impact on the cycle time, capacity, pollution control and product yield of the entire sputtering process. In order to shorten the charging/extracting time of the inlet chamber and improve the speed of the 3rd rotation, it is common to optimize the design from the volume of the chamber and the vacuum pumping system, as the traditional method is based on the original The feeding chamber is matched with a larger pumping pump, and there are also methods for reducing the volume of the inlet chamber and shortening the length of the pipeline before the pumping pump. In this case, the applicant uses the means of changing the pumping mode of the inlet chamber to improve the pumping/exhausting efficiency and running speed of the inlet chamber, and the substrate can be quickly input/output into the material chamber to shorten the cycle time and Improve productivity.

The sputtering unit 22 has four working chambers 221 to 224 arranged in a row in a row, and is respectively performed in the four working chambers 221 to 224. Substrate ^ heating, coating, coating and film heating and upgrading operations, etc., the details of the relevant parts of the machine operation I (4) in the technology (four) common knowledge is known to ' The technical features of the non-closed type will not be described again; in this embodiment, the number of the working chambers 221 to 224 is four, and of course, one or the demand may be increased or decreased. " 25 has four connected to the four The working cavity 251, and the roughing of the rough pumping working chambers 221 respectively connecting the four working chambers of the sputtering and pumping units 221 to 224 are sequentially activated to say "the first is the 221~ 224 of the fine pumping 252; to connect the same pumping pump 25 1 with the fine pumping pump 252 to illustrate 'two of the working chamber 221 for two-stage vacuuming, simple rough pumping 251 for the working chamber 22&quot From the gas to the medium-low vacuum state (> 10 torr), the fine pumping 252 then continues to pump the working chamber 221 to a high vacuum state (<1G·3 ton·) Thereafter, the working chamber 221 is continuously maintained in a high vacuum state without breaking the vacuum, and other operational details regarding the one-stage vacuuming are also well known to those of ordinary skill in the art, and are not related to the new type. The technical features are not detailed in this embodiment, and the rough pump 25 i is also The mechanical pump, and the fine pumping pump 252 is a turbo pump, a diffusion pump, etc. The vacuum unit is provided with a discharge chamber 231, which can perform the operations of blowing 6 and cooling.

In this embodiment, Thick 0 ^ The pump 261 is also a mechanical pump.豕 豕 隔 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 且 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 The cavity 213 and the r body 22 ° valve 272, three for separating the four working = 21, the airtight valve 273, for blocking: the processing outlet door 274 with the discharge cavity, and the body The discharge chamber 23 1 is externally produced & to block the discharge valve 275 of the brother's brother. The use of the first and second airtight valves 273 and the processing of the process can prevent the second cavity 213, the work, 74, and the cavity 231 from being mutually contaminated, so as to hold only a cavity 221 ~224 with the discharge # to maintain individual vacuum and cleanliness requirements. When the continuous vacuum plating device is operated, the substrate is continuously conveyed by the sheet piece through the input sheet 黾 „ 什 兀 21, the sputtering unit 22 and the 枓 ... 3, That is, the feeding unit 21, the sputtering unit 22 and the discharge sheet 23 are simultaneously operated. Before the feeding of the first substrate 1, the inlet door 271 and the processing inlet of the air separation unit are controlled. The valve Μ, airtight] door 273 processing outlet valve 274 and the discharge door are closed, and the second rough pump 242 of the feed pumping unit 24 is activated (the second valve 244 is open) And the deplating and pumping unit 25 maintains the second cavity 213 in a medium-low vacuum state (about 1 〇, ΓΓ), and the four working chambers 221 224 224 of the deplating unit U are maintained at a high level. The vacuum state (about 1 〇 6 M375081 is broken), and the first cavity 211 and the discharge cavity 23 are empty. The latter 'loads the substrate 1 on the carrier tray 3 and opens the inlet valve 27' to cause the substrate i to be fed into the first cavity together with the carrier tray 3, and then closes the inlet valve 271, and Starting the first rough pumping 241 of the feed pumping unit ( (the first gas valve 243 is open), when the first cavity 2U reaches the pre-vacuum pressure (about... (four), the moving room The door 212 is opened to transfer the substrate raft into the second cavity 2i3; then the movable valve 212 is closed again, the first rough pump 241 and the second 'valve 243 are both closed, the first The cavity 211 is vacuumed to prepare for the next substrate 1 to be moved in. Until it is confirmed that the second cavity 213 has reached the vacuum pressure (about 10 2 torr), the processing inlet door 272 is opened to enable The substrate 1 is moved into the working cavity 221. After the substrate 1 is transferred into the working cavity 221, the substrate 丨 can be sequentially moved through the four working chambers 221 by controlling the opening and closing of the airtight valve 273. 224 for processing such as heating, coating, coating, and enamel heating and modification, 'after finishing the above processing operation' The outlet valve 274 is opened to allow the coated product to be removed from the working chamber 224 and transferred into the discharge chamber 231 for subsequent blowing, cooling, etc., and finally the discharge valve 275' will be finished. It is removed together with the carrier tray 3, and then the finished mineral film is removed. Therefore, by using the design of the first cavity 211 and the second cavity 213, the vacuum requirement of the first cavity 211 is lowered, so that the The first cavity 211 can quickly evacuate (from lapm to ιο-^οη·) and vacuum, and the second cavity 213 can be continuously maintained to be able to move the substrate i to the sputtering without breaking the vacuum. In the state of sending the vacuum pressure in the unit 22, the substrate 丨 can quickly enter and exit the feeding unit 21, effectively optimizing the pumping/exhausting efficiency and the operating speed of the feeding unit 21, thereby allowing the continuous vacuum sputtering. The device 2 as a whole can produce cycle time shortening and capacity increase, etc. As shown in Fig. 2, a first preferred embodiment of the novel continuous vacuum sputtering device 2 is different from the above first preferred embodiment. Wherein, the feeding unit 2 is the first one, The two cavities 211 and 213 are connected in parallel, that is, the substrate 1 is directly transferred into the working cavity 221 of the sputtering unit 22 after being removed from the first cavity 211. Further, the infusion pumping unit 24 includes a a rough pump 245 connecting the first and second chambers 211 and 213, a first air valve 246 for controlling whether the first and second chambers 211 and 213 are connected, and a control unit for controlling the rough pump 245 is a second air valve 247' communicating with the first cavity 211 and a third air valve 248 for controlling whether the first and second chambers 211, 213 are in communication. In addition, the machining inlet valve 272 is set. Between the first cavity 2Π and the working cavity 221, similarly, when the coarse cavity 245 vacuums the first cavity 211 to the vacuum pressure value (about 1 〇torr), The door between the processing entrances opens. During the operation of the waste feed unit 21 and the feed pumping unit 24. The rough pump 245 is continuously pulsing the second cavity 213, that is, the second gas valve 248 is normally open, so that the second cavity 2丨3 is maintained at a temperature lower than the ambient pressure. In the vacuum state, without vacuuming, the first and second gas valves 246 and 247 are controlled to be opened and closed at a proper time. For example, when the first cavity 211 is evacuated, the first and second gas valves M375081 246, 247 need to be opened, and when the first cavity 211 is vacuumed, the first and second air valves 246, 247 are closed, so that the vacuuming of the first cavity 211 can be effectively improved. By breaking the vacuum efficiency, the substrate 1 can be quickly input/exited into the first cavity 211 to continue moving into the sputtering unit 22, so that the overall shortening cycle time and productivity can be achieved.
