Below in conjunction with specific embodiment realization of the present utility model is described in detail.
As shown in Figure 1, the impulse laser deposition system that provides of the utility model embodiment comprise the laser apparatus (not shown) that is used to produce pulse laser 1, make this pulse laser 1 be projeced into target 8 galvanometer 3, this pulse laser 1 focused on the condensing lens 2 of target 8, the galvanometer rotating shaft 4 that drives these galvanometer 3 vibrations, the target rotating shaft 9 that drives these target 8 rotations and drive substrate 6 make its substrate rotating shaft 5 with respect to target 8 rotations.This galvanometer 3 is obliquely installed in galvanometer rotating shaft 4, this galvanometer rotating shaft 4 and pulse laser beam 1 conllinear (coaxial) that is projeced into galvanometer 3, and be parallel to target rotating shaft 9 and substrate rotating shaft 5.
Among the utility model embodiment, pulse laser 1 line focus mirror 2 is projected to galvanometer 3, and in galvanometer 3 vibration processes, the angle of its incident beam and galvanometer normal is constant, and promptly the input angle α on galvanometer is constant.When pulse laser is natural light polarization or circularly polarized light, invariable incident angle, reflectivity is constant, and promptly each pulse laser energy after galvanometer 3 reflections is identical.
As shown in Figure 2, galvanometer rotating shaft 4 drives galvanometer 3 and rotates a circle around its axis rotation, and pulse laser formed curved surface after galvanometer 3 reflections is a cone surface.This cone surface is by the planar interception at target 8 places, obtaining one is the summit with the Strahlungseintritt of pulse laser 1 on galvanometer 3, line (as XA, XO, XB) between the point of application on the target 8 is the circular cone of bus in Strahlungseintritt on the galvanometer 3 and pulse laser 1 with pulse laser 1, and each pulse laser is the bus length of this circular cone in the Strahlungseintritt on the galvanometer 3 and its distance between the point of application on the target 8.Therefore each pulse laser equates from the stroke that condensing lens 2 is projected to target 8, input angle β in target 8 surfaces is π-2 α (fixed value) after galvanometer 3 reflections simultaneously, each pulsed laser action is identical in the spot size of target 8, be that each pulsed laser action equates in the power density of target 8, make energy coincidence in each pulse laser 1 and target 8 interactions.Composition, quality, energy, degree of ionization and the angular distribution of the plasma plume brightness that final each pulse laser pounds from target 8 are identical, have fundamentally guaranteed the homogeneity of film.As shown in Figure 3, the homogeneity of this deposit film thickness is good than the homogeneity of other deposition plating modes.
Usually, target 8 and substrate 6 are all perpendicular to each axis of rotation, and substrate 6 is parallel to target 8.
The track that should be appreciated that pulse laser 1 point of application on target 8 is the part of the bottom surface circular arc of above-mentioned circular cone.Pulse laser 1 is in the center of the arc path process target 8 of target material surface scanning; Galvanometer 3 vibration half period, the edge of pulse laser 1 from the centre scan of target 8 to target 8; Galvanometer 3 then vibrates half period, the center of pulse laser 1 from the boundary scan of target 8 to target 8.Along with target rotating shaft 9 drives target 8 rotations, 1 pair of target 8 of pulse laser scans comprehensively.

The utility model embodiment is by adjusting the angle of inclination of galvanometer 3, and making the galvanometer 3 and the angle of galvanometer rotating shaft 4 is 20~30 °.Pulse laser 1 is 30~50 ° through the input angle that galvanometer 3 reflects on target 8, the axis of plumage brightness 7 is perpendicular to target 8 at this moment, and target material surface is difficult for forming microtrabeculae, thereby has eliminated plumage brightness deflection phenomenon, guarantee that each plumage brightness has identical distribution and direction, deposit film is more even.
As preferably, the utility model embodiment adopts from the axle scheme, be target rotating shaft 5 and substrate rotating shaft 9 conllinear not, make the distance of 4 of target rotating shaft 5 and galvanometer rotating shafts equal the distance of 4 of substrate rotating shaft 9 and galvanometer rotating shafts simultaneously, can realize the deposition of large area uniform film.Target 8 vertical projections are when substrate 6, and the edge that is centered close to the target projection plane of substrate 6, the axis of the plumage brightness that sputters from target 8 are perpendicular to substrate 6, and plumage brightness 7 will fully be received and deposition by substrate 6 like this.
The utility model embodiment adopts coaxial vibration mirror scanning, galvanometer is obliquely installed in the galvanometer rotating shaft, make the pulse laser and galvanometer rotating shaft conllinear (coaxial) that are projeced into galvanometer, the galvanometer rotating shaft drives the galvanometer vibration around its axis rotation, the input angle of each pulse laser on galvanometer is identical, reflectivity is constant, the energy coincidence after vibration mirror reflected; Each pulse laser is an element of cone through the formed track of vibration mirror reflected, point of application on target to the distance of condensing lens equates, the spot size of each pulse laser on target is identical in the galvanometer vibration processes, thereby composition, energy and the angular distribution unanimity thereof of generation plumage brightness, the homogeneity of deposit film is good.Simultaneously, keep the repetition rate of pulse laser constant, plumage brightness axis is perpendicular to substrate, and its subpoint is during near the center of substrate, the velocity of rotation height of galvanometer; Its subpoint is during away from the center of substrate, and the velocity of rotation of galvanometer is low, will be more even in the thickness of whole substrate surface deposition plating.In addition, adopt, make distance between target rotating shaft and galvanometer rotating shaft equal distance between substrate rotating shaft and galvanometer rotating shaft, can realize the deposition of large area uniform film from the axle scheme.
