The at least two targets may be independently operable, and at least one of the targets, if inactivated, may be protected by a shielding apparatus. Both of the at least two targets may be mounted to a first wall of a plurality of walls enclosing the sputtering chamber.
Description
- The present invention pertains to the deposition of thin films via a sputtering process and more particularly to the mounting arrangement and control of sputtering targets within a sputtering chamber.
- Sputtering apparatus typically employ one or more sputtering chambers through which substrates, for example, computer memory disks, integrated circuits, flat panel displays and glass sheets or panels, are conveyed for the application of thin films thereto. The substrates are coated via physical vapor deposition, which utilizes a plasma energy source, the position and density of which is controlled by a magnetic field; this process is known to those skilled in the art as “magnetron” sputtering. Magnetrons, which may be planar or cylindrical, include an electrode coupled to an array of magnets; the electrode is overlaid with a target, which includes the material that is to be deposited on the substrates. The deposition is brought about by bombardment of the target surface by ions, which are formed in a gaseous plasma and energized via a voltage applied by the electrode to the target. The terms ‘magnetron’ and ‘sputtering target’, or just ‘target’, are sometimes used interchangeably by those skilled in the art, and may likewise be used herein.
- Often times substrates, such at those given above, by way of example, require a coating on opposing sides. Commonly assigned U.S. Pat. No. 6,964,731 discloses sputtering chambers that have been developed to include magnetrons, or sputtering targets, disposed on either side of the substrates being conveyed therethrough. However, there remains a need in the industry for improved mounting arrangements and control of sputtering targets, within sputtering chambers, that will provide an improved combination of features favorably impacting speed, expense, and ease of operator use.
- Embodiments of the invention pertain to a sputtering apparatus that includes a sputtering chamber (optionally, a large area sputtering chamber), a substrate conveyor, and at least two sputtering targets (e.g. a first and second target). The substrate conveyor, for example, including a series of transport rollers, extends through the chamber defining a path of substrate travel, which may extend either horizontally or vertically through the chamber, between the first and second targets. If the conveyor defines a horizontal path through the chamber, the first and second targets may be above and below, respectively, the path.
- Certain embodiments of the present invention include apparatus, assemblies and methods for deploying the at least two sputtering targets within a sputtering chamber enclosed by a plurality of walls, wherein the targets are mounted to a first wall of the plurality of walls such that the first target is disposed on a first side of the substrate conveyor, and a second target is disposed on a second side of the conveyer. A substrate, for example, a glass sheet, to be sputtered coated, being conveyed through the sputtering chamber, passes between the first and second targets. According to preferred embodiments, the at least two targets includes a first pair of targets disposed on the first side of the conveyor, and a second pair of targets disposed on the second side of the conveyer; such a configuration of four targets may be called a quad configuration. The targets may be cylindrical, i.e. rotatable cylindrical magnetrons, and extend from a first end to a second end over a length which at least spans a width of the substrate being conveyed therebetween.
- A sputtering target assembly, according to some embodiments of the present invention, includes the first wall, which may form a lid of the chamber, together with the targets mounted thereto. The targets mounted to the first wall as a lid, which may be a top lid, are mounted to the lid for placement within the chamber when the lid seals off an opening of the chamber. The lid and targets mounted thereto are removable from the chamber as an integral unit, thereby providing access to all the targets outside the chamber, for example, for maintenance purposes. As previously described, the first target or pair of targets is spaced apart from the second target or pair of targets to allow passage of a substrate (e.g. a glass sheet) therebetween, when the lid seals off the chamber's opening. According to some embodiments, the first wall, or lid, to which the targets are mounted, includes two separable parts, wherein the first target or pair of targets is mounted to a first of the two parts and the second target or pair of targets is mounted to a second of the two parts.
- If the lid is a top lid, the first target or pair of targets can be mounted to the lid so as to be disposed side-by-side and adapted for downward sputtering, and the second target or pair of targets can be mounted to the lid so as to be disposed side-by-side and adapted for upward sputtering. In some embodiments a gas distribution system, for example including a sparge pipe, is also mounted to the lid. According to preferred embodiments, the targets are cylindrical, tube-shaped targets, optionally all being held parallel to one another in such a way as to be rotatable respectively about their horizontal axes.
- According to certain methods of the present invention, each target deployed within a sputtering chamber is independently operable such that any one or a combination of more than one of the targets may be selected to be active, while remaining targets may be selected to be inactive. The selection of active and inactive targets may be made from outside the sputtering chamber by electrically connecting an electrode of an active target to a power supply, and electrically connecting an electrode of an inactive target to ground. For these embodiments a mobile shielding apparatus may be incorporated within the chamber to protect the inactive targets from being coated by material sputtered from the active targets during operation. Additional embodiments of the present invention pertain to such a mobile shielding apparatus. According to some embodiments, the mobile shielding apparatus is actuated from outside the sputter chamber. For those embodiments, which provide shielding for cylindrical targets, each moveable shield of the shielding apparatus may include first and second arcuate panels that extend between first and second ends of the cylindrical targets, and which are adapted to move with respect to one another about a circumference of the target from a first position, in which the panels protect the target from being coated by sputtered material from another target, to a second position, in which the panels allow a portion of the target to be exposed for sputtering. One or more rotatable sprockets may be disposed between the arcuate shield panels to facilitate movement of one panel with respect to the other and an external motor may be coupled to at least one of the sprockets to drive the rotation thereof.

The drawings are not to scale (unless so stated) and are intended for use in conjunction with the explanations in the following detailed description.
