Problems solved by technology

[0005] 1. The non-uniform erosion of the target material seriously reduces the utilization rate of the target material, changes the parameters in the sputtering process, and even causes arcing or arc running, which seriously affects the stability of the sputtering process;
[0006] 2. Since the target is not sufficiently cooled, the target is prone to cracking, sublimation and melting, and the thermal deformation of the target will cause difficulties in disassembly, target expansion and cut-off screws, and poor vacuum sealing.

Abstract

The invention relates to a rectangular plane magnetically controlled sputtering cathode, which is provided with a target, a cathode component and a shielding case which is arranged on the periphery of the cathode component, wherein a magnetic circuit mechanism is fixedly arranged on a target seat and is located inside a cathode body, the target is fixedly arranged on the lower portion of the target seat, and the cathode is characterized in that a magnetic conductive plate is arranged on the periphery of the cathode component and located on the inner side and the outer side of the shielding case in a whole circumference mode. The cathode of the invention can effectively increase the stability of a sputtering process and can increase the availability ratio of the target.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to vacuum coating equipment, more specifically a rectangular planar magnetron sputtering cathode. Background technique [0002] Rectangular planar magnetron sputtering cathode is one of the important equipment for large-area vacuum coating. The invention patent "LINEAR PLANAR-MAGNETRON SPUTTERING APPARATUS WITH RECIPROCATING MAGNET-ARRAY" (inventor David E.Stevenson, US Patent, Patent No. 5328585) introduces a rectangular planar magnetron sputtering cathode, which has a rectangular planar Typical structure of a magnetron sputtering cathode. A shielding cover is arranged around the cathode body, the shielding cover is connected with the positive pole of the power supply and the ground wire, and a certain distance gap is reserved between the cathode body and the shielding cover. The function of the shield is to intercept the electrons emitted by the non-target parts, so that it does not generate glow discharge, prevent the sputter...
