On the throughput direction of substrate Z, dispose filming chamber 18 in the downstream that unreel chamber 14.
Filming chamber 18 extends to the side face of reel 30 by the side face of inner-wall surface 12a, reel 30, from inner-wall surface 12a neighbouring next door 36a and 36b constitute.
In film deposition system 10; As an example; Filming chamber 18 has shower electrode 20, unstripped gas feed mechanism 58, high frequency electric source 60, vacuum exhaust mechanism 62 for to carry out film forming filming chamber on the surface of substrate Z through CCP (Capacitively Coupled Plasma capacity mating type plasma body)-CVD.
In film deposition system 10, when carrying out film forming through CCP-CVD, shower electrode 20 constitutes electrode pair with reel 30.In illustrated example, as an example, shower electrode 20 is the roughly Nogata body shape of hollow, and the circumference as the discharge face of largest face 22 and reel 30 is to configuration.And whole ground is formed with a plurality of communicating poress on the discharge face 22 of conduct and reel 30 opposed opposed faces.Shower electrode 20 its discharge face 22 and and its form to generate between the side face of reel 30 of electrode pair and be used for film forming plasma body, thereby be formed into diaphragm area.
Fig. 3 is with the synoptic diagram shown in the part amplification of shower electrode shown in Figure 2 20 and reel 30.
The discharge face 22 of shower electrode 20 constitutes has the first discharge face 22a and the second discharge face 22b; This first discharge face 22a forms along with moving closer to the distance of reel towards the downstream side at the upstream side of the throughput direction of substrate Z, and this second discharge face 22b forms in the downstream side of the throughput direction of substrate Z with the distance of reel 30 and fixes with the value of regulation.
Particularly; The first discharge face 22a is at the curved surface that begins from the upstream-most position on the throughput direction of substrate Z to be formed on the zone of regulation; It is in the upstream-most position of the throughput direction of substrate Z, promptly form and the first maximum gap of gap of reel 30 to the inlet side that becomes diaphragm area; Along with towards the downstream side, to form by the curved surface corresponding near the mode of reel 30 point-blank with the curved surface of reel 30.
In addition, the second discharge face 22b is the curved surface with the adjacent formation in downstream side of the first discharge face 22a, with the minimum second gap fixed mode in the gap of reel 30 by forming with the corresponding curved surface of the curved surface of reel 30.
In addition; Shower electrode 20 becomes predetermined gap with the gap between discharge face 22 and the reel 30 mode disposes from reel 30 extractor gauge set a distances, and this predetermined gap is that the plasma body in the zone of the second discharge face 22b becomes the gap for membranous second plasma electron density that needs of the performance that obtains becoming target.
At this, big more as the shower electrode 20 and the gap between the reel 30 of electrode pair, the plasma electron density that is used for film forming plasma body is more little.Therefore, with the zone of the gap of the reel 30 first discharge face 22a bigger than the second discharge face 22b in, carry out film forming with the plasma electron density littler than the second discharge face 22b in downstream side.
Promptly; When the beginning film forming; First plasma electron density with low begins film forming, form at the system film regulation thickness mineral membrane during, plasma electron density is changed to second plasma electron density; Form identical mineral membrane with the second plasma electron density system film afterwards, thereby the system film forms the mineral membrane as the thickness of target.
Like this, through the discharge face 22 of the first discharge face 22a and second discharge face 22b formation shower electrode 20, wherein; This first discharge face 22a forms along with moving closer to the distance of reel towards the downstream side, and the second discharge face 22b forms with the distance of reel 30 and fixes with prescribed value, thereby the distance (gap) between shower electrode 20 and the reel 30 changes on the throughput direction of substrate Z as follows; That is, maximum at the upstream side of the throughput direction of substrate Z, along with diminishing gradually towards the downstream side; Prescribed value in the downstream side with minimum is fixed; During film forming, begin film forming in beginning thus with the first low plasma electron density, form at the system film regulation thickness mineral membrane during; Plasma electron density is changed to second plasma electron density; Afterwards, form identical mineral membrane, thereby the system film forms the mineral membrane as the thickness of target with the second plasma electron density system film.
Thus; When the beginning film forming; Energy through plasma body can make material (composition of mineral membrane) the blended state of the organic materials that is formed with substrate surface and mineral membrane layer (below; Be called " mixolimnion ") the thickness attenuation, and can make the mineral membrane that forms on the upper strata of mixolimnion form thickness sufficient.In addition, owing to can form mineral membrane, therefore can make film and form densification and have good high performance mineral membrane with the second plasma electron density system film that can access high performance.And; On the throughput direction of substrate Z; Distance through changing between shower electrode 20 and the reel 30 is controlled plasma electron density, even be roll-to-roll film deposition system therefore, plasma electron density is changed continuously; Can not form the clear and definite interface that change produces during filming condition, and can prevent to connect airtight bad etc. generation.And, owing to need electrode separation not become a plurality of, therefore become diaphragm area can not diminish, productivity can not reduce.
At this, in the present embodiment, the size in second gap limits especially, can be according to kind, yield polymer films, the thickness of mineral membrane of the kind (compositions) of the mineral membrane that forms, the reactant gases that uses, the performance (characteristic) of requirement waits and suitable definite.
And the size in first gap does not limit especially yet, but is preferably 1.1~1.5 times the gap in second gap.
Satisfy above-mentioned condition through making first gap and second gap; Thereby can further improve the inhibition effect of mixolimnion; Can make film and form fine and close more mineral membrane (consequently, can make the thickness attenuation), and can further improve the per unit thickness mineral membrane function (consequently; Can make the thickness attenuation), thereby in the photoabsorption in visible light zone, can reduce aspect such as noise and obtain preferred result.
In addition; The length of the first discharge face 22a on the throughput direction of substrate Z limits especially, can be suitably definite according to the kind of the kind (compositions) of the mineral membrane that forms, the reactant gases that uses, yield polymer films, the thickness of mineral membrane, the performance (characteristic) of requirement etc.Need to prove, the length of the first discharge face 22a be preferably the discharge face 22 on the throughput direction of substrate Z length 10~40%.Form this scope through length, can suppress the formation of mixolimnion more reliably the first discharge face 22a.
Perhaps, can be the length that the mode of 2~10nm is confirmed the first discharge face 22a with thickness at the regional film forming mineral membrane corresponding with the first discharge face 22a.
At this; The curved surface that the distance that is shaped as the first discharge face 22a and reel of the first discharge face 22a closely forms gradually point-blank, but be not limited to this, can form by the plane; Perhaps for making up the face that a plurality of curved surfaces and plane obtain, can also have zone with the fixed distance of reel.In addition, preferred discharge face smoothly, does not promptly have bend ground to form.
Fig. 4 (A)~(C) is that the part of another example and the reel of the shower electrode used in the film deposition system with the method for manufacture of the functional film of embodiment of the present invention is amplified and the synoptic diagram that illustrates.Need to prove; Shower electrode 100,110 and 120 shown in Fig. 4 (A)~(C) in replacing shower electrode shown in Figure 3 20 discharge face 22 and have the discharge face 102; Have the structure identical with shower electrode shown in Figure 3 20; Therefore at the identical identical symbol of position mark, following explanation is mainly carried out different at different position and different.
