Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, at present, ITO glass is mostly produced by magnetron sputtering, which is limited by the production equipment and production process. The internal stress of the ITO film is relatively large, the hardness is high, and the flexibility is insufficient. It is difficult to avoid the ITO film during subsequent processing and use. There are faults, cracks, and shedding, so it is difficult to meet the needs of flexible display products

Abstract

The invention relates to magnetron sputtering coating equipment and a preparation method of ITO (indium tin oxide) glass. The magnetron sputtering coating equipment comprises a coating chamber, a first transition chamber, a second transition chamber, a buffer chamber and an outlet locking chamber that are sequentially connected, wherein the first transition chamber, the second transition chamber, the buffer chamber and the outlet locking chamber are internally provided with heaters. After an ITO film is coated in the coating chamber, a glass substrate coated with the ITO film sequentially passes through the first transition chamber, the second transition chamber, the buffer chamber and the outlet locking chamber to be gradually cooled, so that internal stress of the ITO film is released, the rigidity of the ITO film is reduced, and the ITO glass with relatively high flexibility is prepared.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of coating technology, in particular to a magnetron sputtering coating equipment and a preparation method of ITO glass. Background technique [0002] ITO (Indium Tin Oxide) is an n-type polycrystalline thin film material, and is currently the most widely used transparent conductive material in flat panel display and touch control. Whether it is LCD, resistive touch screen or capacitive touch screen, ITO glass is widely used as its transparent conductive substrate at present. ITO glass includes a glass substrate and an ITO film laminated on the glass substrate. [0003] With more and more products such as flexible display, flexible touch, curved surface display, and curved surface touch, there are new requirements for the flexibility and bendability of transparent conductive substrates. [0004] However, at present, ITO glass is mostly produced by magnetron sputtering, which is limited by the production equipment and...
