Problems solved by technology

Since arc ion plating mainly depends on the discharge of cathode spots on the target surface to deposit the required film, it is a point source. Although these traditional methods of simply applying a magnetic field near the target surface can effectively control the arc spot on the target surface movement, but it does not solve the inhomogeneity of the plasma distribution in the transmission space. At the same time, with the increase of the magnetic field strength, some ions are lost with the distribution of the magnetic field around the target, resulting in the ion density at the substrate. decline
Moreover, long-term etching is easy to form etching tracks on the target surface, resulting in uneven et...

Embodiment 1

[0045] Example 1: Improved Traditional Deposition Process

[0046] The method of simply applying a magnetic field near the target surface is used to control the movement of the arc spot on the target surface, see appendix figure 1 , The arc ion plating deposition device mainly includes a vacuum chamber 1, a substrate (sample) 2, a magnetic ring 3, a target material 4, nickel-plated pure iron 5, an electromagnetic coil 6, an inlet pipe 7, an outlet pipe 8, and an arc coil 9. Arc starting needle 10, etc., set substrate (sample) 2, magnetic ring 3, target 4, arc starting needle 10 in vacuum chamber 1, the front of target 4 is opposite to substrate (sample) 2, target 4 Electromagnetic coil 6 is arranged on the back, and nickel-plated pure iron 5 is installed in the middle of electromagnetic coil 6. The circulating water circulates through water inlet pipe 7 and outlet pipe 8 to cool target material 4. Nickel-plated pure iron 5 and electromagnetic coil 6 are installed on Inside th...

Embodiment 2

[0049] The difference from Example 1 is that a new magnetic field enhancement process is adopted, consisting of two sets of magnetic field generating devices, one set is placed behind the target, and the magnetic field generating device is the same as that in Embodiment 1, that is, it is installed in the middle of the electromagnetic coil 6 Nickel-plated pure iron 5 is mainly used to control the movement of the arc spot. Another set of magnetic field enhancement coils 11 is placed on the back of the substrate (sample) 2 in the vacuum chamber 1. It consists of a coil and is mainly used to restrict the transmission of plasma. , improve the transmission efficiency and the ion density near the substrate, improve the uniformity of ion distribution near the substrate, and achieve the purpose of increasing the film deposition rate and deposition uniformity. The sample is placed near the front of the coil, see attached Figure 4 .

Embodiment 3

[0053] The difference from Example 1 is that a new magnetic field enhancement process is adopted, consisting of two sets of magnetic field generating devices, one set is placed behind the target, and the magnetic field generating device is the same as that in Embodiment 1, that is, it is installed in the middle of the electromagnetic coil 6 Nickel-plated pure iron 5, another set of magnetic field generating device (magnetic field enhancing coil 11) is the same as that in Embodiment 2, and the process of magnetic field configuration and adjustment is also the same. The difference is that the magnetic field enhancement coil 11 is placed in front of the substrate (sample) 2 in the vacuum chamber 1, see appendix Figure 7 ,8. The effect of placing the sample behind the coil is different from that of Example 2, because the trajectory of the charged particles is different due to the difference in the configuration of the magnetic field near the sample, and the structural properties ...
