Description

A kind of rectangle plane magnetron sputtering cathode
Technical field
The present invention relates to vacuum coating film equipment, a kind of rectangle plane magnetron sputtering cathode of more specifically saying so.
Background technology
Rectangle plane magnetron sputtering cathode is one of visual plant of present large-area vacuum plated film.Patent of invention " LINEAR PLANAR-MAGNETRON SPUTTERING APPARATUS WITH RECIPROCATING MAGNET-ARRAY " (contriver David E.Stevenson, United States Patent (USP), the patent No. 5328585) introduced a kind of rectangle plane magnetron sputtering cathode, this negative electrode has the typical structure of rectangle plane magnetron sputtering cathode in the present industry.It is provided with shielding case around cathode, shielding case is connected with positive source and grounding wire, remains with the slit of certain distance between cathode and shielding case.The effect of shielding case is to intercept and capture by non-target part ejected electron, makes it not produce glow discharge, stops the sputter of non-target part, guarantees the purity of film.
" vacuum coating technology and equipment " (Li Yunqi chief editor, Shenyang: Northeast Polytechnic College press, 1992,106-109 page or leaf) is mentioned: the principle of shielding case setting is the clearance distance δ≤r that makes between cathode and the shielding case, i.e. δ≤mE/B 2=3.37U 1/2/ B (wherein, U is the volts DS of magnetron sputtering, U=E δ).At present, when the design magnetic control sputtering cathode, clearance distance δ value is general all in the 1.5-2mm scope.But, do not allow to fill any megohmite between the slit usually, because any weighting material is all easily contaminated, cause shelf depreciation and the conducting short circuit; And in the processing and installation of reality, the uniformity that guarantees the slit is very difficult, particularly in the large-scale rectangular planar magnetic control sputtering cathode, the existence in non-homogeneous slit is easy to cause anode and cathode conducting short circuit, the clearance distance value again can not be greater than this scope, otherwise sputtering phenomenon can take place, the infringement negative electrode.
In addition, also there is following shortcoming in existing rectangle plane magnetron sputtering cathode:
1, the non-homogeneous utilization ratio of degrading serious reduction target of target changes the parameter in the sputter procedure, even can cause the starting the arc or run arc, has a strong impact on the stability of sputter procedure;
2, because target can not get sufficient cooling, and target ftractures easily, distils and dissolves, and target thermal distortion meeting brings dismounting difficulty, target expansion to cut off the generation of faults such as screw and vacuum leakproofness variation.
Summary of the invention
The present invention is for avoiding above-mentioned existing in prior technology weak point, a kind of stability that can effectively improve sputter procedure is provided, improves the rectangle plane magnetron sputtering cathode of the utilization ratio of target.
Technical solution problem of the present invention adopts following technical scheme:
Rectangle plane magnetron sputtering cathode of the present invention has target, cathode assembly and is arranged on the shielding case of cathode assembly periphery, and in the described cathode assembly, magnetic circuit is fixedly installed on the target stand and is positioned at the inside of cathode, and target is fixedly installed on the bottom of target stand.
Constructional feature of the present invention is the periphery at described cathode assembly, the inboard that is positioned at shielding case or the outside, and complete cycle is provided with magnetic conductive board.

Shown in Figure 2 is to distribute at the magnetron cathode magnetic line of force of not installing under the magnetic conductive board situation, and at this moment, magnetic line of force 4 has the component on the bigger surface that is parallel to cathode 7 in slit;
Shown in Figure 3 is the magnetron cathode magnetic line of force distribution that magnetic conductive board 23 is installed at the inner side-wall of shielding case, among Fig. 3 as seen, magnetic conductive board 23 has changed the distribution of slit internal magnetic field, make that magnetic line of force is deformed into purpose magnetic line of force 1 in the slit, the magnetic-field component that the place, slit is parallel to cathode 7 surfaces can become very little, and magnetic line of force gradually becomes perpendicular to the cathode surface direction.The magnetic-field component that is parallel to the cathode surface can be reduced to below the 20Gs, promptly not in the magnetic field range (100Gs-1000Gs) of magnetic charging, so just sputtering phenomenon can not take place in the slit, thereby not need to control the width in slit in 1.5-2mm.Therefore, structure setting of the present invention can make the distance in shielding case 2 and 7 slits of cathode be not limited to the scope of 1.5-2mm, can suitably increase the width in slit according to the size of negative electrode, so both solve the slit discharge phenomenon, avoid the generation of conducting short circuit between anode and cathode again.
Compared with the prior art, beneficial effect of the present invention is embodied in:
1, among the present invention magnetic conductive board the Distribution of Magnetic Field that has changed cathode and shielding case slit place is set, increased the width in slit, suppressed the electric discharge phenomena at place, slit effectively, avoided anode and cathode conducting short circuit, sputter procedure is stable, reliable.
2, the present invention can improve the homogeneity of Distribution of Magnetic Field effectively by the reasonable setting of magnetic structure, improves the utilization ratio of target and the stability of sputter procedure.
3, the present invention can be provided with heat conduction carbon film and copper backboard between target and target stand, to increase thermocontact area, make target cooling evenly fully, overcome the expand generation of faults such as cutting off screw and vacuum leakproofness variation of dismounting difficulty, target scaling loss, target that target brings because of thermal distortion.
4, assembling and dismounting are convenient in structure setting of the present invention.
