Background technology
Along with follow-on electronic product is towards development trend intelligent, integrated, hommization, the application of flexible substrate is more and more extensive, for example display screen, printed circuit board, advanced energy and material (as solar cell), and conductor of high-temperature superconductor coat (HTSCCs) etc.Compare with traditional material, flexible substrate has the advantages such as mechanical strength is high, volume is little, specific area is large, the more important thing is and adopts roller when prepared by roller (reel to reel) method for winding, can significantly reduce the cost that industry is manufactured; Yet the surface roughness of industrial flexible base band does not all reach the needed standard of equipment performance optimization that makes conventionally, like this its cheaply advantage just possibly cannot realize.
Conductor of high-temperature superconductor coat is one of the study hotspot in current superconduction field, and its preparation method comprises the auxiliary biaxial texture base band (RABiTS) of rolling and ion beam assisted depositing (IBAD).Adopt ion beam assisted depositing (IBAD) to obtain the substrate with highly textured growth of superconductive functional layer, the advantage that IBAD-MgO obtains texture fast with it is received very big concern.For reaching practical application, need the technique that a kind of energy is cheap, prepare fast the needed smooth substrate of IBAD-MgO.Traditional glossing is as smooth in machine glazed finish and electrochemical polish can make base band surface flatten.Machine glazed finish is a good method that obtains smooth base band, but because cost is high and efficiency is low, is not suitable for the preparation of long band or large-area coating; And electrochemical polish is only applicable to some specific astroloy material, be difficult to use on a large scale.
From traditional polishing mode, substrate surface is removed to one deck and reach that to reduce the object of roughness different, the coating conductor substrate preparation method of liquid deposition leveling adds at substrate surface the effect that one or more layers noncrystal membrane reaches planarization.At coarse substrate surface, apply one deck oxide precursor liquid, due to capillary effect, solution can be in the how residual part of sunk microcell, and few more residual at protruding microcell, the relative substrate surface of liquid film plays planarization effect; Through Overheating Treatment, precursor liquid experience solvent evaporates and thermal decomposition, be converted into amorphous oxides, although volume is compared liquid film, shrinks to some extent, compares original substrate surface again, and surface roughness declines.By repeatedly applying and heat treatment, the surface roughness of substrate can be down to 1nm left and right, and for follow-up IBAD-MgO texture layer provides good smooth surface, amorphous layer can also be as the barrier layer that stops base band and superconducting layer counterdiffusion simultaneously.It is simple that the method has technique, and nonhazardous is with low cost, is applicable to heavy industrialization application, so the preparation of conductor of high-temperature superconductor coat is significant.
