Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of flaw detection methods, specifically to an ultrasonic flaw detection method for a double-layer spray head plate target material. Background Technology

[0002] Vacuum sputtering involves electrons being accelerated towards the substrate under the influence of an electric field, colliding with argon atoms and ionizing into a large number of argon ions and electrons. The electrons fly towards the substrate, while the argon ions are accelerated and bombard the target material under the influence of the electric field, sputtering out a large number of target atoms. The neutral target atoms (or molecules) are deposited on the substrate to form a film, ultimately achieving the purpose of coating the substrate surface.

[0003] Brazing is commonly used in the fabrication of target components. It is typically employed for products with similar physical properties, such as melting points, like aluminum targets and copper backplates. The principle involves using a brazing filler metal with a lower melting point than the workpiece metal. After appropriate heating and pressure, the filler metal melts, bonding the solid workpieces together. Post-welding inspection of the target's weld quality is crucial. Currently, the tensile test is used to inspect brazed targets (e.g., aluminum targets). This test assesses the tensile strength of a target sample to infer the weld quality. However, this method is destructive, increasing costs. Furthermore, it has limitations, as the tensile test only measures the tensile strength of the tested area and does not accurately reflect the overall weld condition of the target.

[0004] Ultrasonic testing utilizes the echo heights generated by ultrasonic waves as they enter a medium with different sound velocities to determine the presence of defects on the surface and inside of a workpiece. It boasts advantages such as high sensitivity, short cycle time, low cost, and high efficiency. However, due to the diverse types of targets, problems remain, including low testing efficiency and difficulty in determining testing parameters for specific target types. The target material for a double-layer spray head plate is an irregularly shaped target containing a cavity, with both sides of the cavity serving as the target's welding surface. Existing testing methods often involve ultrasonic testing on both sides of the target separately, but this results in a low testing rate, long testing time, complex preparation, and significant dependence on the target material itself for defect detection.

[0005] Therefore, it is of great significance to provide an ultrasonic flaw detection method for the target material of a double-layer spray head plate. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the above problems, the present invention aims to provide an ultrasonic flaw detection method for a double-layer spray head plate target material.
