Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of coating technology, and in particular to a deposition apparatus. Background Technology
[0002] The uniformity of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) films is closely influenced by the flow field distribution of the reactant gases. Although atomic layer deposition (ALD) films primarily rely on surface chemical reactions and possess self-limiting characteristics, the ideal ALD process has limited dependence on the flow field distribution of the reactant gases. However, in high-speed mass production environments, excessive reactant gases or insufficient purging time can lead to reactions similar to CVD, in which case the film uniformity becomes related to the gas flow field distribution. Current techniques typically avoid CVD by increasing the purging gas flow rate and time, but this reduces production efficiency and increases costs, negatively impacting the application of ALD technology in high-speed industrial production. Separating multiple reaction chambers with baffles allows for simultaneous processing of multiple chambers. However, due to the rotation of the reaction chambers, when gas is injected at an angle, it is blocked by the baffles, resulting in significant non-uniformity in the coating and reduced reaction efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0007] Wherein, the first direction is the flow direction of the gas when it enters the working chamber, the second direction is the linear velocity direction of the working chamber located at the guide part, and the angle A between the first direction and the second direction satisfies: 0° <A<90°。
[0008] In some embodiments, the included angle A satisfies: 30°≤A≤60°.
[0009] In some embodiments, the gas flow rate is Va, the linear velocity of the working chamber at the gas inlet is Vb, and the included angle A satisfies: cosA=Va / Vb.
[0010] In some embodiments, the air guiding mechanism includes a plurality of the guide portions, each of the guide portions being circumferentially distributed around the first axis;
[0011] The chamber mechanism includes multiple working chambers, each of which is circumferentially distributed around the first axis.
[0012] In some embodiments, the gas includes a reactive gas and a purge gas. The reactive gas is used to coat the raw material, and the purge gas is used to remove excess reactive gas. The guide portions respectively introduce the reactive gas and the purge gas.
[0013] In some embodiments, the chamber mechanism includes an extraction port, the axis of which is collinear with the first axis, and the extraction port is used to extract gas.
[0014] In some embodiments, the guide portion includes a plurality of guide holes, and the second axis is the axis of each of the guide holes, and the second axis is parallel to the first direction.
[0015] A second aspect of this application also provides a deposition apparatus that deposits a film on a raw material by introducing a gas, the deposition apparatus comprising:
[0016] A chamber mechanism configured to rotate about a first axis, the chamber mechanism including a working chamber along a direction perpendicular to the first axis, the working chamber having two oppositely arranged partitions, the working chamber including a deposition wall surface disposed between the partitions, the deposition wall surface being perpendicular to the first axis, and the deposition wall surface including a working area;
[0017] A gas guiding mechanism, the gas guiding mechanism including a guide portion configured to move the gas to the deposition wall surface;
[0018] Wherein, the first direction is the flow direction of the gas when it enters the working chamber, the second direction is the tangential direction of the rotation direction of the working chamber located at the guide part, the first direction and the second direction are at an angle B, the angle B satisfies: 0°≤B≤180°, the working area is provided with a first side and a second side arranged opposite to each other, along the second direction, the second side is located below the first side, the direction of the second side and the second direction are at an angle C, the angle C satisfies: 0°≤C≤90°.
[0019] In some embodiments, the included angle B satisfies: 60° ≤ B ≤ 120°;
[0020] The included angle C satisfies: 30° ≤ C ≤ 60°.
[0021] In some embodiments, the included angle B satisfies: B = 90°, the flow rate of the gas is Va, the linear velocity of the working chamber is Vb, and the included angle C satisfies: tanC = Vb / Va.
[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:
[0023] In the technical solution of the present application, the first direction is the flow direction when the gas enters the working chamber, the second direction is the linear velocity direction of the working chamber at the position of the guiding portion, and the included angle between the first direction and the second direction is angle A. In the prior art, angle A satisfies: A = 90°. When the gas enters the working chamber, the obtuse angle between the flow direction relative to the chamber mechanism and the linear velocity direction of the working chamber at the position of the guiding portion is relatively large, so that the range of the gas directly hitting the baffle is relatively large, and the area of the included angle between the baffle and the deposition wall surface that the gas cannot cover is relatively large. In this embodiment, through the action of the guiding mechanism, angle A satisfies: 0° < A < 90°. When the gas enters the working chamber, the obtuse angle between the flow direction relative to the chamber mechanism and the linear velocity direction of the working chamber at the position of the guiding portion is relatively small. So that in the working state, that is, when the chamber mechanism rotates around the first axis, the acute angle between the movement direction of the gas relative to the chamber mechanism and the second direction is relatively large, making the gas flow smoothly, so as to avoid the gas being unable to cover the included angle between the baffle and the deposition wall surface, expanding the coverage area of the gas, and reducing the gas directly hitting the baffle, so as to reduce the turbulence generated between the baffle and the deposition wall surface, so that the gas forms a flow layer between the deposition wall surfaces, increasing the reaction rate without increasing the production cost, improving the uniformity of the gas flow in the working chamber, and improving the coating uniformity.
[0024] Further, when the chamber mechanism rotates around the first axis, the included angle between the movement direction of the gas relative to the chamber mechanism and the second direction is 90°, making the gas flow smoothly, so as to avoid the gas being unable to cover the included angle between the baffle and the deposition wall surface, expanding the coverage area of the gas, and reducing the gas directly hitting the baffle, so as to reduce the turbulence generated between the baffle and the deposition wall surface, so that the gas forms a flow layer between the deposition wall surfaces, further improving the uniformity of the gas flow in the working chamber, and further increasing the reaction rate without increasing the production cost, thereby further improving the coating uniformity.

[0061] In high-speed mass production equipment, excessive reactant gas or insufficient purging time can lead to reactions similar to chemical vapor deposition (CVD). In this case, the uniformity of the thin film is related to the gas flow field distribution. Current technologies typically avoid CVD by increasing the purging gas flow rate and time, but this reduces production efficiency and increases production costs, negatively impacting the application of atomic layer deposition (ALD) technology in high-speed industrial production. Separating multiple reaction chambers with baffles allows for simultaneous processing of multiple chambers. However, when the reaction chambers rotate, causing the gas to enter at an angle relative to the chambers, the gas is blocked by the baffles, resulting in significant unevenness in the coating and reduced reaction efficiency.
[0062] To achieve the above objectives, see [link to relevant documentation]. Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 7 This application proposes a deposition apparatus 10, which uses gas to deposit a film on a raw material 20. The deposition apparatus 10 includes a chamber mechanism 100 and a gas guiding mechanism 200. The external profile of the deposition apparatus 10 can have various structures. In some embodiments, the deposition apparatus 10 can be cuboid. In other embodiments, the deposition apparatus 10 can be cylindrical. In other embodiments, the deposition apparatus 10 can be polygonal, etc., depending on the specific circumstances. This application uses a cylindrical deposition apparatus 10 as an example.
[0063] The external profile of the chamber mechanism 100 can have various structures. In some embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 can be a cuboid. In other embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 can be a cylinder. In other embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 can be a polygon, etc., depending on the actual situation. This application embodiment uses a cylindrical chamber mechanism 100 as an example. The chamber mechanism 100 is configured to rotate about a first axis, which is the axis of the cylindrical chamber mechanism 100. The chamber mechanism 100 includes a working chamber 110. In some embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 can be a cuboid. In other embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 can be a cylinder. In other embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 can be a polygon, etc., depending on the actual situation. This application embodiment uses a chamber mechanism 100 including a sector-shaped cylinder as an example. Along a direction perpendicular to the first axis, the working chamber 110 is provided with two opposing partitions 120, the length direction of each partition 120 being perpendicular to the direction of the first axis. The working chamber 110 includes a deposition wall 130 for placing raw material 20 for coating. The deposition wall 130 is disposed between partitions 120, and each deposition wall 130 is perpendicular to a first axis. In some embodiments, each partition 120 is used to separate the deposition wall 130 from the non-deposition wall 130 to isolate excess gas and ensure normal operation. The deposition wall 130 includes various shapes and structures. In some embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 may be rectangular. In other embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 may be circular. In other embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 may be polygonal, etc., depending on the actual situation. This application embodiment uses a fan-shaped chamber mechanism 100 as an example. The deposition wall 130 includes various wall structures. It should be noted that the deposition wall 130 may be a straight surface or a curved surface. In some embodiments, the deposition wall 130 includes multiple fixing devices for fixing the raw material 20. Furthermore, the number of fixing devices can be determined according to the actual situation. For example, the number of fixing devices can be two, three, four, etc.
[0064] The gas guiding mechanism 200 includes a guiding part 210 configured to diffuse gas to the deposition wall surface 130 so that the raw material 20 on the deposition wall surface 130 is coated. The guiding part 210 guides the flow direction of the gas when the gas enters the chamber mechanism 100. In some embodiments, the guiding part 210 includes a first opening provided in a direction perpendicular to the first axis and a wind guiding plate provided at the first opening. The wind guiding plate is used to guide the flow direction of the gas when the gas enters the chamber mechanism 100. Further, the guiding part 210 includes a dispersion hole plate provided on the first opening for uniformly diffusing the gas to improve the uniformity of gas diffusion. Further, the number of wind guiding plates is multiple. The number of wind guiding plates can be determined according to the actual situation. Exemplarily, the number of wind guiding plates can be two, three, four, etc.
[0065] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the first direction X is the flow direction of the gas when it enters the working chamber 110, the second direction Y is the linear velocity direction of the working chamber 110 at the position of the guiding part 210, and the included angle between the first direction X and the second direction Y is angle A, and angle A satisfies: 0° < A < 90°. The angle of angle A can be determined according to actual needs. Exemplarily, the angle of angle A can be 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, 60°, 70°, 80°, etc. It should be noted that since the chamber mechanism 100 rotates around the first axis and the gas has a flow direction relative to the ground when it enters the chamber mechanism 100, during the coating process, the motion vector of the gas relative to the chamber is the cross product of the vector of the gas motion and the vector of the opposite direction of the linear velocity motion of the chamber mechanism 百where the gas is located. In the prior art, see Figure 10, the included angle A satisfies: A = 90°, that is, the movement direction of the gas is perpendicular to the linear velocity direction of the working chamber device 40 at the position of the guiding device 30. When the gas enters the working chamber device 40, the included angle between the flow direction of the gas relative to the working chamber device 40 and the linear velocity direction of the working chamber device 40 at the position of the guiding device 30 is an obtuse angle, so that the range of the gas directly hitting the partition device 50 is large, and the area of the included angle between the partition device 50 and the deposition wall surface device 60 that the gas cannot cover is large, resulting in a decrease in the reaction rate, a decrease in the uniformity of the gas flow in the working chamber device 40, and a decrease in the uniformity of coating the raw material 20. In this embodiment, through the action of the guiding mechanism, the included angle A satisfies: 0° < A < 90°, that is, the included angle between the flow direction of the gas when it enters the working chamber 110 and the linear velocity direction of the working chamber 110 at the position of the guiding portion 210 is a smaller obtuse angle, so that in the working state, that is, when the chamber mechanism 100 rotates around the first axis, the included angle between the movement direction of the gas relative to the chamber mechanism 100 and the second direction Y is a larger acute angle, making the gas flow smoothly, so as to avoid the situation that the gas cannot cover the included angle between the partition 120 and the deposition wall surface 130, expand the coverage area of the gas, and reduce the direct hitting of the gas on the partition 120, so as to reduce the turbulence generated between the partition 120 and the deposition wall surface 130, so that the gas forms a flow layer between the deposition wall surfaces 130. In this embodiment, without increasing the production cost, the reaction rate is increased, the uniformity of the gas flow in the working chamber 110 is improved, and the coating uniformity is improved. Further, when the chamber mechanism 100 rotates around the first axis, the included angle between the movement direction of the gas relative to the chamber mechanism 100 and the second direction Y is 90°, making the gas flow smoothly, so as to avoid the situation that the gas cannot cover the included angle between the partition 120 and the deposition wall surface 130, expand the coverage area of the gas, and reduce the direct hitting of the gas on the partition 120, so as to reduce the turbulence generated between the partition 120 and the deposition wall surface 130, so that the gas forms a flow layer between the deposition wall surfaces 130, further improving the uniformity of the gas flow in the working chamber 110, and further increasing the reaction rate without increasing the production cost, thereby further improving the coating uniformity.
[0066] In some embodiments, the included angle A satisfies: 30° ≤ A ≤ 60°. The specific angle A can be determined according to the actual situation. For example, the included angle A can be set to 30°, 35°, 40°, 45°, 50°, 55°, 60°, etc. By further adjusting the range of the included angle A, the gas flow is made smoother, so as to avoid the gas failing to cover the included angle between the partition 120 and the deposition wall 130, thereby expanding the gas coverage area and reducing the direct gas impact on the partition 120, so as to reduce the turbulence generated between the partition 120 and the deposition wall 130, so that the gas forms a flow layer between the deposition wall 130, further improving the uniformity of the airflow in the working chamber 110, and further increasing the reaction rate without increasing production costs, thereby further improving the coating uniformity.
[0067] See Figure 2 The gas flow velocity is Va, and the linear velocity of the working chamber 110 at the gas inlet is Vb. The included angle A satisfies: cosA = Va / Vb, so that the angle between the gas's direction of motion relative to the chamber mechanism 100 and the second direction Y is 90°, ensuring smooth gas flow and improving the uniformity of the airflow in the working chamber 110. This further increases the reaction rate without increasing production costs, thereby further improving the coating uniformity. In some embodiments, the air guide plate includes two opposing guide surfaces. The gas abuts against the guide surfaces, which then guide the gas to enter the chamber mechanism 100 along the guide surfaces. Furthermore, the angle D between each guide surface and the linear velocity direction of the working chamber 110 at the gas inlet satisfies the same angle as the included angle A, such that the included angle A satisfies: cosA = Va / Vb.
[0068] The gas guiding mechanism 200 includes multiple guide portions 210. The specific number of guide portions 210 can be determined according to the actual situation. For example, the guide portions 210 can be two, three, four, etc., and each guide portion 210 is circumferentially distributed around a first axis. It should be noted that the guide portions 210 can be arranged at uniform intervals or non-uniform intervals. The chamber mechanism 100 includes multiple working chambers 110. The specific number of working chambers 110 can be determined according to the actual situation. For example, the working chambers 110 can be two, three, four, etc., and each working chamber 110 is circumferentially distributed around a first axis. It should be noted that the guide portions 210 can be arranged at uniform intervals or non-uniform intervals. In some embodiments, the number of guide portions 210 is the same as the number of working chambers 110, to adapt to simultaneous coating of multiple working chambers 110.
[0069] The gases include reactive gases and purge gases. The reactive gases are used to coat the raw material 20, and the purge gases are used to remove excess reactive gases. Each guide section 210 introduces both reactive and purge gases. The gases introduced between adjacent guide sections 210 are reactive and purge gases, respectively. That is, for the same working chamber 110, after each reactive gas coating process, a purge gas removal process is required to ensure smooth gas coating. In some embodiments, if multiple reactive gases are required for coating in the same chamber, a purge gas removal process is required after each reactive gas process to ensure that excess reactive gases do not interact with each other.
[0070] The chamber mechanism 100 includes an extraction port 140, the axial direction of which is collinear with the first axis. The extraction port 140 is used to extract gas to ensure that the gas flow direction within the chamber mechanism 100 is stable and to ensure the removal of excess reactive gas, thereby increasing the reaction rate, improving the uniformity of airflow in the working chamber 110, and improving the coating uniformity.
[0071] See Figure 3 The guide section 210 includes a plurality of guide holes 220, with a second axis being the axis of each guide hole 220. The second axis is parallel to the first direction X. The guide holes 220 are used to guide the flow direction of the gas when it enters the chamber mechanism 100. The number of guide holes 220 can be determined according to the actual situation. For example, the number of guide holes 220 can be two, three, four, etc. In some other embodiments, the angle between the axial direction of each guide hole 220 and the linear velocity direction of the working chamber 110 at the gas inlet satisfies cosA = Va / Vb, so that the angle A satisfies: cosA = Va / Vb.
[0072] A second aspect of this application also provides a deposition apparatus 10, see [link to previous document]. Figures 4 to 6 as well as Figure 8 , Figure 9 The deposition apparatus 10 introduces gas to coat the raw material 20. The deposition apparatus 10 includes a chamber mechanism 100 and a gas guiding mechanism 200. The external profile of the deposition apparatus 10 can have various structures. In some embodiments, the deposition apparatus 10 can be cuboid. In other embodiments, the deposition apparatus 10 can be cylindrical. In other embodiments, the deposition apparatus 10 can be polygonal, etc., depending on the specific circumstances. This application embodiment uses a cylindrical deposition apparatus 10 as an example.
[0073] The external profile of the chamber mechanism 100 can have various structures. In some embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 can be a cuboid. In other embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 can be a cylinder. In other embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 can be a polygon, etc., depending on the actual situation. This application embodiment uses a cylindrical chamber mechanism 100 as an example. The chamber mechanism 100 is configured to rotate about a first axis, which is the axis of the cylindrical chamber mechanism 100. The chamber mechanism 100 includes a working chamber 110. In some embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 can be a cuboid. In other embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 can be a cylinder. In other embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 can be a polygon, etc., depending on the actual situation. This application embodiment uses a chamber mechanism 100 including a sector-shaped cylinder as an example. Along a direction perpendicular to the first axis, the working chamber 110 is provided with two opposing partitions 120, the length direction of each partition 120 being perpendicular to the direction of the first axis. The working chamber 110 includes deposition walls 130 disposed between partitions 120, each deposition wall 130 being perpendicular to a first axis. Each deposition wall 130 includes a working area 131 for placing raw material 20 for coating. In some embodiments, each partition 120 separates the deposition walls 130 from the non-deposition walls 130 to isolate excess gas and ensure normal operation. The deposition walls 130 can have various shapes and structures. In some embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 can be rectangular. In other embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 can be circular. In other embodiments, the chamber mechanism 100 can be polygonal, etc., depending on the specific circumstances. This application embodiment uses a fan-shaped chamber mechanism 100 as an example. The deposition walls 130 can have various wall structures; it should be noted that the deposition walls 130 can be flat or curved. In some embodiments, the deposition walls 130 include multiple fixing devices for fixing the raw material 20. Furthermore, the number of fixing devices can be determined according to the actual situation. For example, the number of fixing devices can be two, three, four, etc.
[0074] The gas guiding mechanism 200 includes a guide section 210, which is configured to move the gas to the deposition wall 130 so that the raw material 20 in the deposition wall 130 is coated. The guide section 210 guides the flow direction of the gas when the gas enters the chamber mechanism 100.
[0075] See Figure 5 as well as Figure 6The first direction X is the flow direction of gas entering the working chamber 110, and the second direction Y is the tangent direction of the rotation direction of the working chamber 110. An angle B is formed between the first direction X and the second direction Y, satisfying: 0 degrees ≤ B ≤ 180 degrees. The angle B can be determined according to actual needs. For example, the angle B can be 0°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, 60°, 70°, 80°, 90°, 100°, 110°, 120°, 130°, 140°, 150°, 160°, 170°, 180°, etc. The working area 131 has a first side 1311 and a second side 1312 arranged opposite each other. Along the second direction Y, the second side 1312 is located below the first side 1311. The direction of the second side 1312 is at an angle C with the second direction Y, satisfying: 0 degrees ≤ C ≤ 90 degrees. The angle C can be determined according to actual needs. For example, the angle C can be 0°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, 60°, 70°, 80°, 90°, etc. This ensures that the angle between the gas flow direction relative to the working chamber 110 when entering the working chamber 110 and the direction of the second side 1312 is small, so that the working area 131 is completely covered by the gas flow direction, allowing the gas to flow smoothly. This minimizes the area of the working area 131 that cannot be covered, and the working area 131 is not affected by the turbulence generated between the partition 120 and the deposition wall 130. This allows the gas to form a flow layer in the working area 131, increasing the reaction rate and improving the uniformity of the gas flow in the working area 131 without increasing production costs, thus improving the coating uniformity.
[0076] In some embodiments, the included angle B satisfies: 60 degrees ≤ B ≤ 120 degrees. The specific angle of included angle B can be determined according to the actual situation. For example, included angle A can be set to 60°, 70°, 80°, 90°, 100°, 110°, 120°, etc. The included angle C satisfies: 30 degrees ≤ C ≤ 60 degrees. The specific angle of included angle C can be determined according to the actual situation. For example, included angle C can be set to 30°, 35°, 40°, 45°, 50°, 55°, 60°, etc. By further adjusting the range of included angles B and C, the gas flow is made smoother, the uniformity of the airflow in the working chamber 110 is further improved, and the reaction rate is further increased without increasing production costs, thereby further improving the coating uniformity.
[0077] See Figure 5 as well as Figure 6The gas flow velocity is Va, and the linear velocity of the working chamber 110 is Vb. When the included angle B satisfies B = 90 degrees, the included angle C satisfies tanC = Vb / Va. This ensures that the gas flow direction relative to the working chamber 110 upon entering the working chamber 110 is parallel to the direction of the second side 1312, facilitating smooth gas flow, improving the uniformity of the gas flow in the working chamber 110, and further increasing the reaction rate without increasing production costs, thereby further improving the coating uniformity.
