Annealing, structure and optics, electricity, catalytic property to film etc. all have a significant impact, in order to guarantee annealing thoroughly, two
The kind heated at constant temperature time is 1 hour.
The surface state of substrate has a great impact to adhesive force.Why film can be attached on substrate, be Fan Dewa
The comprehensive function of Er Sili, diffusion attachment, mechanical sealed, electrostatic attraction, chemical bond force etc..Substrate surface it is unclean will make it is thin
Film cannot directly be contacted with substrate, and Van der Waals for weakens significantly, and diffusion attachment is also impossible to, and adhesion property can be made very poor.
So to carry out stringent cleaning to substrate to remove the grit adhered to, the oil film adsorbed, moisture film etc. as previous in plated film
Pollutant.
Substrate temperature has important influence to the formation of film, improves the phase that substrate temperature is conducive to film and substrate atom
Counterdiffusion, and can accelerate to chemically react, to advantageously form diffusion attachment and chemical bond adhesive force, increase adhesion.
Membrane structure, the growth of product body and optical property of film etc., forming core and life of the substrate temperature to film in interface are influenced simultaneously
Length has a significant impact.When low temperature depositing, atom active is low, and Enhancing Nucleation Density is low, and there are holes at interface;When high temperature deposition, atom is living
Property increase, Enhancing Nucleation Density is high, and interface hole is few, and interface cohesion is stronger, and adhesive force is high.But substrate temperature is excessively high to make film product grain
It is coarse, increase thermal stress in film, to influence other performances of film.Therefore, titanium net substrate temperature of the invention is 280 DEG C.
In the present embodiment, the purity of the Ti target is 99.99%.
It will be seen from figure 1 that the TiO after 500 DEG C of cycle annealings2Film is the position 25.3o in 2 θ, have one it is clear and
The diffraction maximum in sharp Detitanium-ore-type (110) face.In addition, also being detected other than (101) face diffraction maximum for detecting anatase
To (112) face, (200) face, (215) region feature diffraction maximum of anatase.This illustrates that film has obtained relatively good crystallization, crystallization
Process is than more complete, and film crystallization is in (101) Solute Content in Grain.
Ti0 after 200 DEG C of cycle annealings2Film is to have one very weak to belong to anatase at 25.3o in 2 θ
(101) diffraction maximum in face.Illustrate under conditions of 200 DEG C of cycle annealings still also have and be orientated the sharp of mixed and disorderly crystallite a little
Titanium ore crystal grain.
TiO after 200 DEG C and 500 DEG C of cycle annealings2The crystallite dimension of film is by Scherrer formula d=k λ (β cos θ)
Calculating is about 22nm.
It is known that the electronics that speed is v will be by Lorentz force in the magnetic field that electric field E and magnetic induction intensity are B
Effect:
F=-q (E+v × B)
Wherein q is electron charge.When electric field and magnetic field exist simultaneously, if E, v, B three are parallel to each other, electronics
Track be still straight line.
It is found that being in the electric field E electronics orthogonal with magnetic field B, the equation of motion is from physics:
In formula, e and m are the electricity and quality of electronics respectively, and the motion profile of electronics is as shown in Figure 2.
The characteristics of magnetron sputtering is to be mutually perpendicular to electric and magnetic fields direction above target material surface.It is above-mentioned by solving
Equation, the motion profile of above-mentioned electronics can be found out are as follows:
Wherein, x, y are respectively the coordinate for being parallel and perpendicular to target surface.The angular frequency of rotary electronic movement is ω=qB/m,
It is proportional to the charge-mass ratio q/m of magnetic induction density B and electronics.Above formula shows under the action of the magnetic field parallel with target surface,
Electronics is in the form of taking turns cycloid along target surface to the direction advance perpendicular to E, B plane.Electron motion is bound in certain sky
In, to greatly reduce the recombination loss of electronics on the wall.Such crossed electric and magnetic field can be effectively by electronics
Travel control near target surface, and extend the travel of electronics significantly, increase the ionization probability of electronics, because
And plasma density is increased, it improves with causing the magnetron sputtering rate order of magnitude.It is lost since electronics is every by primary collision
Part energy loses energy and enters as " final electronics " from the farther away weak electric field area of cathode target after multiple impacts,
It has been the low-energy electron of energy consumption totally when finally reaching anode, also just substrate can have not been made to heat again, therefore can be significantly
Reduce substrate temperature.High-density plasma is strapped near target surface by magnetic field simultaneously, and is not contacted with substrate, and ionization in this way produces
Raw cation can highly desirable bombard target surface, and substrate can be from the bombardment of plasma, thus substrate temperature again may be used
It reduces.Further, since operating air pressure is reduced to several pas of zero point, reduce the collision to the atom or molecule that sputter out, therefore
Deposition is improved, the contaminated tendency of film is also reduced.Sputtering voltage is lower, about several hundred volts, but target current density
It can achieve tens milliamperes every square centimeter.It is increased in this way, magnetron sputtering just efficiently solves substrate temperature in cathodic sputtering,
The problems such as sputter rate is low, and film is contaminated.
The above described is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, not making any form to technical solution of the present invention
On limitation.According to the technical essence of the invention any simple modification to the above embodiments, equivalent variations and repair
Decorations, in the range of still falling within technical solution of the present invention.
