Description

Device for activating large-volume getter and enhancing adsorption rate by heating and radio frequency discharge plasma
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the fields of thermal, electromagnetic and material application, and particularly relates to a device for activating a large-volume getter and enhancing the adsorption rate by heating and radio frequency discharge plasma
Background
Currently, many fields of industrial application and basic scientific research are carried out in vacuum environment, including coating, heat treatment, micro-electro-mechanical systems, surface science, atomic physics, nanotechnology, semiconductor industry, etc. For the vacuum technology, the working range and efficiency are directly affected by the size of the internal vacuum environment and the vacuum degree, and particularly after the 21 st century, with the continuous improvement of various application indexes and the deepening of basic subject research, the operation and research environment of the vacuum technology need high vacuum or even ultrahigh vacuum of different degrees for maintenance, which also puts higher requirements and challenges on the process of the vacuum packaging process and the means for obtaining the subsequent vacuum environment. Therefore, in addition to the conventional vacuum acquisition means such as mechanical pump, molecular pump, cryopump, etc., the vacuum adsorption technology developed based on getter materials is also receiving attention and has shown more important role.
Non-Evaporable getters (NEG) have been used in scientific research and industrial production of electric vacuum devices, ultra-high vacuum getters, atomic energy industries, and the like, due to their characteristics of low equilibrium gas pressure, large gas-absorbing capacity, high gas-absorbing rate, and the like. Generally, the getter materials of this type require heating treatment during operation, and the getter has a gettering function, which is called the getter activation process. The conventional process of activating the getter generally uses a heating wire or a heating rod to heat, and the getter is activated at a high temperature and starts to absorb gas.
However, although NEG has unique advantages and has been widely used in high vacuum and ultra-high vacuum devices, with the acceleration of industrialization process in new century in China, the limitations of this type of gettering mode are gradually reflected: industrial devices are no longer limited to small vacuum devices (such as a chemical laser adsorption system), amplification is often required, and when a large device obtains high vacuum, a getter is still required to be used for adsorption treatment on the basis of a conventional acquisition means. The technical problem is how to ensure the encapsulation and the air suction of the large-volume getter. Secondly, when the getter is activated by heating, the electrothermal conversion efficiency is relatively low, the getter can be activated to absorb gas to achieve the purpose of obtaining higher vacuum usually after a period of time, and particularly for the getter materials in an amplified industrial device and a large volume, the getter materials can be activated for a longer time, so that not only energy needs to be stably and continuously injected for a long time, but also the applicability is lower in flexible, mobile and quick activated getter occasions. The getter has selectivity to the adsorption of part of the gas, and the gas suction rate can be greatly influenced according to the different types of the gas. At the same time, considerable differences are associated with the temperature and time of getter activation. For a part of the gas which is difficult to absorb, such as nitrogen, high temperature of several hundred degrees centigrade is often required to activate the getter, and the gettering rate after activation is slow. How to effectively increase the amount of the getter is very important for the absorption rate of the gas which is difficult to absorb.
The presence of these problems sometimes limits the overall functional utility of the getter and it is important to find a device that can be adapted to the current needs of high volume getter applications and that has an increased activation time and improved sorption rate.

The present invention has been made in view of the above facts, and aims to provide a device for heating and rf discharge plasma to activate a large-volume getter and enhance the gettering rate, in view of the problems of long activation time and slow gettering rate of a portion of gas in the conventional heated getter. The invention can be suitable for the application requirements of large-size devices requiring large-size getters, can effectively make up for the defect of long activation time of the large-size getters in a simple heating method through heating and radio frequency electromagnetic field coupling modes, can increase the number of active particles correspondingly through plasmas generated by discharge, improves the defect of slow gas suction rate of the getters for some gases difficult to adsorb, and further accelerates the gas suction rate of a system.
