Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of material processing, and in particular to a method for leveling a magnetron sputtering tray. Background Art

[0002] At present, the working principle of magnetron sputtering is that electrons collide with argon atoms in the process of flying to the substrate under the action of the electric field E, ionizing them to produce Ar positive ions and new electrons; the new electrons fly to the substrate, and the Ar ions are accelerated to fly to the cathode target under the action of the electric field, and bombard the target surface with high energy, causing the target material to sputter. Among the sputtered particles, neutral target atoms or molecules are deposited on the substrate to form a thin film, and the secondary electrons generated will be affected by the electric field and magnetic field, resulting in a drift in the direction indicated by E (electric field) × B (magnetic field), referred to as E × B drift, and its motion trajectory is similar to a cycloid. If it is a circular magnetic field, the electrons will move in a circular motion on the target surface in an approximate cycloid form. Their motion path is not only very long, but also bound in the plasma region close to the target surface, and a large amount of Ar is ionized in this region to bombard the target material, thereby achieving a high deposition rate. As the number of collisions increases, the energy of the secondary electrons is exhausted, gradually moving away from the target surface, and finally deposited on the substrate under the action of the electric field E.

[0003] For example, CN114250439A discloses a magnetron sputtering method, which is applied to a magnetron sputtering process using a magnetron sputtering device, wherein the magnetron sputtering device includes a magnet group located above or below a target material, wherein the magnet group includes a first magnet and a second magnet, and the method includes: in the first stage of the life cycle of the target material, the distance between the first magnet and the second magnet is a first distance for magnetron sputtering process; in the second stage of the life cycle of the target material, the distance between the first magnet and the second magnet is a second distance for magnetron sputtering process, wherein the first distance and the second distance are the distances between the first magnet and the second magnet in the lateral direction, and the first distance and the second distance are different. This scheme widens the area of ​​the deepest etching region of the target material by adjusting the relative positions between the magnets in stages during the life cycle of the target material, improves the utilization rate of the target material under the premise of keeping the safety margin unchanged, and thus reduces the production cost.

[0004] CN114774871A discloses a magnetron sputtering device and a magnetron sputtering film forming method, including a first cathode assembly and a second cathode assembly arranged oppositely. When the magnetron sputtering device provided in the embodiment of the present application is used to form a cathode, the direction of the magnetic field can be adjusted to control the area where plasma is formed, and the plasma is limited to be formed between the first rotating target and the second rotating target. Then, the area where the rotating target is bombarded with process gas Ar is limited to the relative position of the rotating target. Therefore, the small particles of high-energy Ag and IZO bombarded out will not be deposited on the device, and only the small particles of low-energy Ag and IZO close to the vertical direction will be deposited on the device to form a cathode, thereby reducing the damage to the organic functional layer during the cathode formation process and improving the yield of the organic light-emitting diode display device.

[0005] In magnetron sputtering, a substrate tray is usually used to carry the substrate to be sputtered and adsorb metal atoms other than those deposited on the substrate. Due to its use environment and requirements, the magnetron sputtering tray used for sputtering needs to adsorb excess metal particles, so the tray needs to be sandblasted. Due to the high surface roughness requirements, sandblasting needs to be performed with a high pressure, and the tray is thin and the strength of the aluminum alloy is not high, which will cause the tray to be significantly deformed after repeated use. In the prior art, it is usually leveled only by a single flattening method, and the leveling effect is poor, and it is difficult to meet the flatness requirements for use. Moreover, after leveling by only a single flattening method, the service life is significantly lower than that of the original tray, and the frequency of leveling is significantly increased, resulting in a significant increase in production costs and a significant decrease in efficiency. Summary of the invention
