Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of vacuum electronic devices and relates to a method for processing the surface roughening of a three-dimensional precision-controlled area of a diamond window. Background Art
[0002] The increasing output power of vacuum electronic devices has put forward higher requirements on the materials of microwave output windows. Sapphire, boron nitride and beryllium oxide are the most commonly used energy transmission window materials in vacuum electronic devices. However, with the continuous increase in the output power of vacuum electronic devices such as traveling wave tubes, the traditional microwave energy transmission window cannot meet the requirements of high power capacity and miniaturization at the same time. Therefore, new materials are urgently needed to upgrade and improve the traditional microwave energy transmission window. Diamond single crystal has many excellent properties such as extremely low dielectric transmission loss, extremely high thermal conductivity, highest hardness and elastic modulus, and has been proven to be a nearly perfect microwave window dielectric material. Diamond-based microwave output windows can achieve good matching of wide bandwidth range in microwave, millimeter wave and even terahertz frequency bands, quickly diffuse the heat absorbed when high-frequency microwave energy is output, and resist the high pressure difference on both sides of the window. Therefore, exploring wide-band, high-power and small-volume diamond energy transmission windows is an important direction in the field of vacuum electronic devices.
[0003] However, due to the special crystal structure of diamond materials, its welding process technology has the following problems: (1) The chemical inertness of diamond materials results in a high interface energy between the diamond material and the solder metal. Whether in air or in a vacuum atmosphere, the surface of diamond is almost not wetted by ordinary solder, and it is difficult to chemically react with other metals and non-metals, let alone interpenetration. Therefore, it is difficult to form a metallurgical bond during welding; (2) The welding temperature is limited. When it exceeds 1000 K, diamond will undergo graphitization; (3) The thermal expansion coefficient of diamond materials is very different from that of other metals. The mismatch in thermodynamic properties on both sides of the interface results in large thermal stress when the welding temperature cools down, which reduces the reliability of the seal and even causes cracks.
[0004] Therefore, the metallization of the diamond dielectric window surface is the basis for ensuring the airtightness of the energy transmission window assembly. At present, manual coating and magnetron sputtering technology are mainly used to metallize the side and surface edge of the diamond single crystal energy transmission window. However, as the research frequency band becomes higher and higher, the size of the corresponding window becomes smaller and smaller. When performing manual coating, the uniformity and consistency of the coating cannot be guaranteed at the micron level, resulting in an increase in uncontrollable factors.
[0005] The nano-scale roughness and high transmittance of the window energy transmission area are key parameters to ensure low transmission loss. However, it is not conducive to improving the bonding strength between diamond and the plated metal during the magnetron sputtering metallization process. The metallization layer may peel or fall off, resulting in poor airtightness after the entire window is sealed. Summary of the invention
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for roughening the surface of a three-dimensional precision-controlled area of a diamond window, thereby improving the bonding force between single-crystal diamond and the plated metal, meeting the high airtightness requirements of the entire window sealing process, and solving the problem of poor wettability between diamond materials and heterogeneous materials.

The cleaning solution is acetone, isopropanol, anhydrous ethanol or deionized water.
[0011] The specific method of S3 is: use a photolithography mask or a stamping mask to prepare a photoresist layer with a diameter of 0.6-12mm in the central area of the window, and the thickness of the photoresist layer is 100-500μm, ensuring that the center point of the photoresist coincides with the center point of the single crystal diamond wafer, and ensuring that there is no photoresist layer in the three-dimensional precision control area around the outer ring of the window.
[0012] The specific method of S4 is: The three-dimensional precision-controlled area is covered with metal or metal oxide film by magnetron sputtering, electroplating or deposition. The metal or metal oxide film is made of Fe, Ni, Co, Fe2O3, MnO2 or NiO.
