Application of preferred indium tin oxide with (400) crystal plane on transparent thin-film thermocouple

Abstract

The invention relates to the application of a preferred indium tin oxide with a (400) crystal plane on a transparent thin-film thermocouple, and belongs to the technical field of thin-film thermocouples. A preferred body-centered cubic ferromanganese ore phase polycrystalline indium tin oxide with the (400) crystal plane is made into a pole of the transparent thin-film thermocouple by magnetron sputtering; and the power density of magnetron sputtering is 4.8-8.0W / cm<2>. The indium tin oxide transparent thin-film thermocouple has a relatively high Seebeck coefficient by controlling the preferred orientation of the indium tin oxide thin-film obtained by magnetron sputtering.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the application of indium tin oxide with (400) crystal plane preference on a transparent thin-film thermocouple, and belongs to the technical field of thin-film thermocouples. Background technique [0002] Thin-film thermocouples have the advantages of low fabrication cost, high sensitivity, and short response time. At present, thin film thermocouples are mainly composed of metal materials, such as: Pt, Ni 90 Cr 10 、Ni 95 Si 5 etc. The above-mentioned metal thin-film thermocouples are opaque in the visible light range, but in some special fields, the thin-film thermocouples are required to be transparent in the visible light range, such as: the lens surface of the space telescope, the glass surface of the spacecraft, Surfaces of solar panels, etc. Indium tin oxide thin film materials are an important class of transparent conductive materials, which have important applications in the field of photoelectric conversion, such ...

Problems solved by technology

However, the ordinary indium tin oxide film has a non-preferential polycrystalline center cubic ferromanganite phase structure. When measuring temperature in air, due to the non-preferential polycrystalline center cubic ferromanganite phase indium tin oxide film will react with oxygen in the air reaction, resulting in an irreversible change in the electrical properties of the indium tin oxide film, which in turn leads to a lower Seebeck coefficient for the thin-film thermocouple, which eventually leads to a decrease in the temperature measurement accuracy of the thin-film thermocouple

[0003] At present, in order to overcome the problem of unstable Seebeck coefficient in the temperature measurement process of indium tin oxide transparent film thermocouples, it is necessary to prepare a dense anti-oxidation coating on the surface of indium tin oxide film transparent film thermocouples, such as: SiO 2 、Al 2 o 3 、SiN x , AlN x etc., but these methods all have some deficiencies, such as: the larger stress in the anti-oxidation coating will destroy the indium tin oxide film material; the larger stress in the anti-oxidation coating will lead to anti-oxidation The coating is broken and peeled off, which leads to the failure of anti-oxidation; in the process of preparing the anti-oxidation coating, it is necessary to discharge to the outside the environment containing Cl, F, CO x , NH x , NO x Exhaust gases such as harmful gases, causing environmental pollution; the prepared indium tin oxide transparent film thermocouple has problems such as high cost, long time consumption, and low efficiency
