Problems solved by technology

[0003] Commonly used non-evaporable getter films are mainly alloys composed of titanium, zirconium, vanadium, aluminum, hafnium, transition metals, and rare earth elements, such as Ti-Zr-V, Zr-V-Fe, Zr-Co-Re, Zr -Co-Ce, etc. Although the getter film has made great progress, there are still many deficiencies in the preparation and application: (1) Some non-evaporable material systems contain vanadium, which is extremely toxic to the human body, At the same time, the alloy target is difficult to melt and process, and the preparation cost is high
(2) The deposition rate of thin film getters prepared by DC magnetron sputtering is usually extremely low (1-8nm / min), and the deposition time is more than 10 hours, which cannot meet the high-efficiency industrial production
(3) The getter is easily oxidized when exposed to the air, and the service life of the getter is short or unusable
(4) The film has poor adhesion on smooth substrates, and the effective surface area for adsorption is small

Embodiment 1

[0045] The preparation method of the getter film of the present invention is to deposit a layer of adjustment layer on the polished single crystal silicon by physical vapor deposition, deposit a getter layer on the surface of the adjustment layer, and deposit a protective layer on the getter layer, and prepare Three-layer structure getter film.

[0046] First, prepare polished single crystal silicon as a deposition substrate. Use acetone, alcohol, and deionized water to ultrasonically clean the single-crystal silicon wafers for 10-20 minutes each, and bake the silicon wafers in a constant temperature oven for 1-2 hours after cleaning.

[0047] Put the silicon wafer to be cleaned into the etching system to etch for 10-30 minutes. After the silicon wafer is taken out, use acetone, alcohol, and deionized water to clean it ultrasonically, and then bake it in a constant temperature oven for 1-2 hours.

Background technique [0002] Getter, which absorbs H in a vacuum or inert environment 2 , CO 2 It is an important functional material for active gases such as ions, and is widely used in high-vacuum systems, microelectronic vacuum devices, etc. that need to maintain a vacuum environment. Due to the high activation temperature, large volume and toxicity of traditional getters, they can no longer meet the requirements for use in specific fields. The non-evaporable getter film has the advantages of low activation temperature, fast getter rate, large getter capacity, high-efficiency preparation, strong adhesion, small size, and strong compatibility. It is the best choice for microelectronic MEMS devices. [0003] Commonly used non-evaporable gette...
