Problems solved by technology

Among them, the excitation type is a fixed frequency, and the stepping motor is used to adjust and match the vacuum adjustable capacitor to match the load. This method requires a precise stepping motor and a vacuum adjustable capacitor, which has high cost, large volume, and low efficiency. Since the stepping motor is a mechanical movement, its dynamic response is slow; in addition, there are two methods for the self-excited type: one is to detect the reflected power method, use the stepping motor to roughly adjust the matching box, and then adjust the frequency according to the reflected power. The matching box is still needed, its volume is large, and the dynamic response is slightly improved, but it is still relatively poor; another method is direct coupling, which detects the output phase and input phase, and performs feedback to adjust the frequency according to the phase difference. This technology is relatively advanced. The technology is monopolized by a few foreign companies. Its efficiency is relatively high and its volume is relatively small. However, because the high-frequency phase cannot be completely and accurately positioned, its working state cannot reach a complete matching state, but can only be close to a complete matching state, and its volume cannot be minimized. Efficiency can not be the highest

Abstract

The invention provides a frequency locking method of plasma power. The frequency locking method includes the following steps: (A1) detecting peak voltage or peak current of a plasma coil, (A2) adjusting frequency of a signal source according to the peak voltage or the peak current, and (A3) outputting adjusted radio frequency power through fixed matching.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a plasma source, in particular to a frequency-locking method for a plasma power supply. Background technique [0002] In ICP-AES and ICP-MS products, adjustable high-power RF plasma power supplies are required. Domestic high-power RF power supplies are large in size, high in cost, low in efficiency, and poor in reliability; while the most advanced foreign technologies are monopolized by very few companies. At present, there are mainly the following modes of RF plasma power supply: self-excited RF power amplifier plus matching box, self-excited RF power amplifier plus matching box, and self-excited direct coupling. Among them, our company adopts a self-excited direct-coupled RF plasma power supply. The core of the realization of the self-excited RF power supply is the feedback technology. At present, there are: power feedback and phase feedback. What we use is to detect the output peak voltage and current, and use the Δ intelli...
