Definitions
- This invention relates to a method of and ap paratus for vaporizing substances in a vacuum.
- the metal to be used for coating is vaporized and deposited on the object to be treated.
- the necessary heat is supplied to the metal through the medium of a crucible which is brought to the required temperature in suitable manner, for instance by electric resistance heating.
- the invention overcomes these troubles by placing the substance to be vaporized directly in the path of electronic rays which of themselves produce the heat needed for vaporization on striking the substance. As the supply of heat by conduction is eliminated, the temperature developed in the substance to be vaporized is higher than the ambient temperature. Compared with the known methods, during the application of which a certain amount of heat conducted away by the crucible or radiated in the wrong direction does not reach the substance to be vaporized, the method suggested by the invention causes the heat required for vaporization to be produced by electron bombardment at the very place where it is needed.
- the method and the yield obtainable by its application can be improved still more by placing the substance in the path of electronic rays that are concentrated or otherwise focused by suitable means.
- the invention provides for alignment of the rays and their concentration on the substance to be vaporized with the aid of electron-optical means whereby the intensity of radiation and thus the amount of energy consumed per unit area at the vaporization point are increased.
- the substance to be vaporized is preferably in troduced into thejet or beam of rays at a point where the beam has a relatively smallcross seetion and the intensity per unit area is therefore very great, the most favorable position in this respect being obtained by placing the substance in the electron-optical image point of the emitting cathode.
- the cathode preierably comprises an electronemitting source of high intensity, both hot and cold electrodes being usable which require, however, difierent gas pressures. If a hot cathode is employed, pressure on the filament must be eX- traordinarily low, since small quantities of residual gas will soon destroy the wire, slight traces of water vapor being for instance capable of causing decomposition of a tungsten wire within a very short time. In case of an unheated cathode the pressure prevailing in the space surrounding it should not be too low, as otherwise the ions required for the gas discharge will be lacking,
- the vacuum should be chosen so as to insure good vaporization and the production of a clean deposit. A poor vacuum will yield of course poor deposits whilst any excess will be uneconomical.
- the source of electrons is disposed in a space in which the pressure difiers from that found in the space where the substance to be vaporized is kept.
- pressure in the cathode space must be lower than in the vapor space Whilst in case of a cold cathode pressure conditions are reversed.
- Both spaces are preferably separated by a partition possessing a narrowly apertured diaphragm.
- air is continuously supplied to the higher pressure space and removed by pumping from the lower pressure space. Through the diaphragm an air current is then produced which by its size determines the pressure ratio. may be used which does not combine with the substance to be vaporized, the vapor and the deposited layer.
- a plurality of diaphragms may be installed, one after another, which act like a labyrinth packing, that is to say, the pressure heads in the spaces between the diaphragms are varied by degrees from one working space to the other.
- the spaces between the diaphragms may be connected to vacuum pumps if necessary, and if only one. diaphragm is used, a suction connection may be provided near it for the higher pres- Instead of air, a gas tron lens system and, at a suitable point, brought v again into the narrowing jet of rays for the substance to be vaporized.
- substances of low thermal conductivity may be directly inserted in the beam of rays in the form of blocks or similarly shaped bodies without requiring a crucible, etc.
- the electronic rays would soon melt a hole in the substance, the position of the latter must be altered periodically.
- the electronic rays may be strictly electrically controlled by providing in known manner electric or magnetic fields the variation of which serves to regulate the direction of the beam.
- the substance to be vaporized may further be fed to the point of impact of the rays at uniform speed and practically without interruption.
- the vessel which is necessary in this arrangement, will then contain a certain amount of molten material the weight of which is utilized for regulating feed.
- operation may be such that the increasing weight of the vessel actuates either a switch or a stopping device which interrupts feed until a portion of the molten metal is vaporized, whereupon the lightened vessel releases the switch or device in reversed direction and thereby starts feeding again.
- Figure 1 shows a vaporizing vessel provided with an electron lens system and a hot cathode.
- Fig. 2 shows a vaporizing vessel provided with a diaphragm, two electron lens systems and a cold cathode.
- Fig. 3 shows a vessel provided with a substance to be vaporized that is movably disposed and means for electrically influencing the course of the rays.
- Fig. 4 shows a vaporizing vessel provided with a plurality of diaphragm and continued feed of material to the place of vaporization.
- the vacuum vessel I accommodates in its upper portion a filament 2 serving as cathode.
- a block 4 of material to be vaporized rests on a support 3, 5 designates the discharge connection for a vacuum pump.
- the objects to be subjected to the coating action of the vapor are located at 6 and I.
- the vessel I from the filament 2 in various directions are refracted by an electron lens having the form of a coil Ill toward the block 4 and impinge upon its surface at I I.
- the construction shown in Fig. 2 possesses, in addition to the electron lens III, a second electron lens I0 and a diaphragm I2. Projected from a cold cathode I3 at an angle of a few degrees, the electronic rays 9 are refracted by the electron lens Ill toward the diaphragm I2 and focused in the rear of the latter by the electron lens I9 at I I on the block 4 in the same way as shown in Fig. 1.
- a connection I 4 air or a gas is continuously supplied in quantities that can be regulated by a valve 38, and drawn off through the connection 5.
- the pressure in the upper portion I5 of the vessel I is therefore greater than in the lower space I6.
- Fig. 3 shows the lower portion II of a vacuum vessel in which the block 4 rests on a rotatable table I9 driven by a small motor 2
- a rotatable table I9 driven by a small motor 2
- two plates 22, 23 are provided between which the electronic ray 9 controlled by the coil I0 extends and to which voltage can be applied so as to permit displacement of the point of impact II on the block 4.
- a switch 35 is provided which is normally closed.
- is shown to contain a small amount of molten material 36.
- an excessive quantity thereof will accumulate in the crucible 3
- the switch 35 is opened and the drive of the feed rolls 29, 30 stopped.
- the crucible is drawn up by the spring 34 and the switch 35 closed so that feeding can continue.
- the method of vaporizing substances in a vacuum comprising producing electronic rays, subjecting vaporizable substances to the direct heating action of said electronic rays by placing the substances in the direct path of the rays, thereby causing the rays to impinge on the substance and develop the heat required for vaporization directly therein by said electronic rays, partitioning into two spaces the area between the point where the rays are produced and the position of the substances to be vaporized so as to inhibit interchange of pressure while permitting unimpeded passage of the electronic rays through said partition, and producing a constant air current between said spaces to maintain difference in pressure between them by the continual supply of air to one space and removal of air from the other space.
- the method of vaporizing a substance in a vacuum comprising producing electronic rays with a source located within a zone maintained at sub-atmospheric pressure, placing a vaporizable substance within said zone in spaced relation to said source of electronic rays, and modifying the normal path of travel of rays emitted by said source by passing rays from the source through a field of force to converge and concentrate said rays onto the vaporizable substance whereby to heat the latter and cause it to vaporize.
- the method of vaporizing a substance of a vaporizable character in a vacuum comprising producing electronic rays with a source located within ta, zone maintained at sub-atmospheric pressure, concentrating rays emitted by said source into a ray bundle and bringing the rays in the bundle to a focus by passing rays emitted by said source through a field of magnetic force, and subjecting a vaporizable substance within said zone to the action of the concentrated rays by placing the substance directly in the path of the rays in said bundle at a position where the bundle is of small cross section whereby to heat and vaporize the substance.
- the method of vaporizing substances of low heat conductivity in a vacuum comprising producing electronic rays, subjecting a vaporizable substance to the heating action of said rays by directing the rays on to an area on a surface of said substance and into impact with that portion of the surface within said area whereby to cause the rays to heat and vaporize said substance, causing the path of travel of said rays to traverse the area of the surface, and additionally moving said substance with respect to the path of travel of the rays so as to bring said rays into impact with different areas on said surface.
