Description
Technical Field

Background
As a film coating mode, magnetron sputtering is widely applied due to the advantages of strong coating adhesion, easy control and the like.

In the magnetron groups ordered as an even number, the polarities of the outer magnets of the two adjacent magnetrons are the same.
As a specific example of the arrangement of the magnetron groups, the magnetrons in each magnetron group are distributed around the center of the coating mask. Furthermore, the magnetrons in each magnetron group are uniformly distributed along the center of the coating cover. Furthermore, the magnetrons in each magnetron group are distributed in a ring shape along the center of the coating cover. It can be understood that the distance between two adjacent magnetron groups is equal. At this time, the magnetron groups are distributed on the rings with equal distance.

Further, when the number of magnetrons in each magnetron group is equal, one sample stage 800 is disposed between two mutually corresponding magnetrons 400.
In a specific example, the magnetron sputtering coating chamber 100 comprises a coating cover 700, a sample stage 800 and two magnetron groups; the sample stage and the two magnetron groups are both positioned in the coating cover, and the sample stage is arranged between the two adjacent magnetron groups. In the direction from outside to inside, the two magnetron groups are divided into a 1 st magnetron group and a 2 nd magnetron group. That is, m =2, the 1 st magnetron group is located at the outermost layer, and the 2 nd magnetron group is located at the next outermost layer.
Wherein the 1 st magnetron group has an even number of magnetrons, and a1Not less than 4. For example, the number of magnetrons in group 1 can be 4, 6, 8, 10, etc. The 2 nd magnetron group has an even number of magnetrons, and b1Not less than 2.

The polarities of the outer magnets 402 of the adjacent two magnetrons in the 1 st magnetron group are opposite. Taking the number of the magnetrons in the 1 st magnetron group as 4 as an example, the arrangement of the 4 magnetrons in the 1 st magnetron group can be N-S-N, S-N-S, N-S-N, S-N-S in sequence, at this time, a closed magnetic field can be formed between the magnetrons at the outermost layer, and all electrons can be bound in an interval formed by the magnetron groups at the outermost layer in the film coating process, thereby effectively reducing the annihilation of the electrons. Taking the number of the magnetron in the 1 st magnetron group as 6 as an example, the arrangement of the 6 magnetrons in the 1 st magnetron group can be N-S-N, S-N-S, N-S-N, S-N-S, N-S-N, S-N-S in sequence.
In this example, the polarities of the outer magnets 402 of the adjacent two magnetrons in the 2 nd magnetron group are the same.

Test example
The thickness and hardness of the surface coating layer of the stainless steel obtained in examples 1 to 3 and comparative examples 1 to 2 were measured, and the test results are shown in table 1.
The thickness test adopts a DEKTAK 150 model step tester produced by VEECO in America to test the thickness of each film, the diameter of a probe is 2.5 mu m, the pressure is 3mg, and 3 data tested by each test point are averaged. Wherein the test points are shown in fig. 6.
Hardness test the hardness of each film was tested using an NHT3 nanoindenter model manufactured by Anton-Paar, Austria, equipped with a tetrahedral Berkvich indenter, set the indentation depth to 100nm, with the load varying with indentation depth, and the average value was taken after testing 5 matrix points for each test point. Wherein the test points are shown in fig. 6.
The standard deviation calculation is calculated using the following formula, where x is the sample mean and n is the sample size:。
TABLE 1
As can be seen from Table 1, through analysis of hardness data of the examples and the comparative examples, hardness values of the examples 1-3 are between those of the comparative examples 1 and 2, are all more than or equal to 15GPa, and meet industrial standards, and the coating method in the embodiment of the invention can form a compact and high-hardness film.
Through the analysis of the standard deviation data of hardness and thickness of the examples and the comparative examples, the standard deviation performance is approximate on the data results of the groups of data of L1, La, Lb, Lc and Ld, and the standard deviation performance meets the industrial requirements. However, the data results of L1, L2, L3, L4 and L5 show great differences, specifically: the example data is better in uniformity than the comparative example data, specifically, in examples 1 to 3, the standard deviation of hardness is 0.48-1.48, the standard deviation of film thickness is 0.1-0.24, the industrial standard (the standard deviation of hardness is less than or equal to 2.5, and the standard deviation of film thickness is less than or equal to 0.25) is met, and the excellent uniformity is shown in example 1, wherein the uniformity is the most excellent, as a preferred embodiment of the invention, in comparative examples 1 to 2, the standard deviation of hardness is 3.17-3.57, and the standard deviation of film thickness is 0.5-0.64, and the poor uniformity is shown, especially, the difference between L3 and L1, L5 is larger, in the comparative examples, because of adopting the single/double closed magnetic field design, the electron confinement and the plasma confinement in the magnetron area can form a closed loop, which can cause the collision energy generated in the long-range sputtering particles to weaken in the long-range sputtering process, which can cause the small hardness of the film formed on the L3 point in the central area of the sample, The thickness is thin, and because the inner ring adopts the non-closed magnetic field in the embodiment, magnetic lines of force repel each other, so that electrons and plasma fly to the center of the workpiece, sputtering particles are driven to sputter for a long distance, the thin films at the center and the periphery of the sample are uniform, and the scheme in the embodiment can obtain more uniform coating thickness on the large-size workpiece.
The technical features of the embodiments described above may be arbitrarily combined, and for the sake of brevity, all possible combinations of the technical features in the embodiments described above are not described, but should be considered as being within the scope of the present specification as long as there is no contradiction between the combinations of the technical features.
