Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of material surface engineering, and particularly to a preparation method of an anti-etching ceramic coating material. Background Art
[0002] In the fields of semiconductor manufacturing and lithography equipment, components are often exposed to extremely harsh operating environments, such as high temperature, vacuum, high-energy particle bombardment, and strong corrosive gas environments. These complex working conditions pose severe requirements on the performance of materials. The most prominent problems are the combined effects of chemical corrosion, thermal stress, and plasma erosion. This not only leads to the rapid failure of precision components of the equipment but also directly affects the manufacturing quality of semiconductor chips and the working life of lithography equipment. Currently, the key materials for anti-etching mainly include oxides such as alumina, zirconia, and yttrium oxide (Y 2 O 3 ). Among them, yttrium oxide has become a research hotspot due to its unique physical and chemical properties. This material has a high melting point (about 2430 °C), a low vapor pressure, extremely strong chemical stability, and excellent anti-plasma impact performance. During the semiconductor manufacturing process, especially in the etching, cleaning, and deposition processes, the surface of components often comes into direct contact with high-energy plasma. At this time, the yttrium oxide coating can effectively block the corrosive effect of plasma, thus significantly improving the reliability and durability of the equipment.
[0003] However, traditional yttrium oxide coating preparation technologies (such as thermal spraying) still face many challenges in practical applications. First of all, the thermal spraying technology uses powder as the raw material, and the prepared coating often has a high porosity, which makes its corrosion resistance in corrosive media limited. In addition, the bonding method between the coating and the substrate in thermal spraying is mostly mechanical bonding, and the bonding strength is low, which is easy to fail due to peeling during long-term use. With the continuous development of semiconductor processes towards higher precision and more severe working conditions, traditional thermal spraying coatings can no longer meet the requirements for denseness, bonding force, and long-term high stability.
[0004] To overcome the limitations of traditional coating technologies, in recent years, Suspension Plasma Spraying (SPS) has gradually attracted attention. By combining spray granulation and using a suspension as the coating raw material, this technology can effectively solve the problems of large powder particle size and poor fluidity in traditional thermal spraying. The uniform dispersion of micron-sized spherical powders in the suspension makes the coating deposition process more precise and can significantly improve the density and uniformity of the coating. In addition, the SPS technology can also achieve a coating structure with a lower porosity, enhance the corrosion resistance, and further optimize the suspension characteristics and the bonding strength between the coating and the substrate by adjusting the granulation parameters and plasma spraying parameters. Although the application prospect of suspension plasma spraying technology in the preparation of yttrium oxide coatings is broad, there are still some technical bottlenecks at present. For example, the stability of the suspension has a great influence on the final performance of the coating. How to improve the dispersion and fluidity of the powder by optimizing the powder granulation process is an urgent problem to be solved. In addition, during the plasma spraying process, if the separation particle size distribution range is wide and the fluidity is poor, agglomeration and nozzle blockage are likely to occur, thus affecting the uniformity and corrosion resistance of the coating. At the same time, the existing pure yttrium oxide coating materials have poor oxygen barrier ability, which has a negative impact on the substrate during the re-service process. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a coating material that can make the coating dense, have a small surface roughness, and be resistant to etching and oxidation to meet the usage requirements of high-performance equipment. Summary of the Invention
