Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of vacuum coating, and particularly relates to a special-shaped curved substrate workpiece frame for vacuum sputtering coating. BACKGROUND

[0002] Sputtering coating is a kind of vacuum coating technology, which is a process of making target atoms or molecules ejected from the surface of a solid target by bombarding the surface with particles of a certain energy (usually positively charged argon ions) and depositing on the substrate surface. In the sputtering coating process, the substrate is installed in the vacuum chamber through the workpiece frame, and the processed substrate completes different process sputtering coating procedures in the coating equipment as the workpiece frame moves. In the sputtering coating process, it is necessary to ensure that the workpiece frame has sufficient stability and supporting force to firmly fix the substrate and prevent it from shaking during the coating process. The shaking of the substrate will lead to uneven distribution of sputtered atoms or molecules on the substrate surface, thereby affecting the uniformity and quality of the film layer.

[0003] The current workpiece frame is for substrates with conventional shapes, and clamps are arranged on the opposite sides of the workpiece frame to directly clamp, support and fix the substrate. Such a workpiece frame can only be used to install substrates with conventional shapes and similar sizes, and has the problems of unstable clamping and even unable to clamp and install for processing special-shaped curved substrates. Moreover, the clamps and the substrate are prone to discharge, which may cause damage to the substrate. The vapor molecules or atoms released by the evaporation source are also prone to diffraction or scattering before reaching the substrate surface, which may also lead to uneven film layer, inaccurate thickness control and decreased film layer quality.

[0079] The third left shielding plate 2152 is fixed to the end of the third left support 215 by an insulating screw. Please refer to Figure 13 As shown, the third left shielding plate 2152 is also provided with a screw hole for fixed connection with the anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4. The third left shielding plate 2152 is provided with a third left anti-diffraction support 2151 on the lower side, which is located below the third left shielding plate 2152 and is provided with a groove for supporting the anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4. The anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4 is provided with a through slot corresponding to the third left anti-diffraction support 2151. The third left anti-diffraction support 2151 passes through the through slot, so that the wall of the through slot is clamped in the groove. A third left insulating block 2153 is arranged beside the groove to prevent the anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4 from coming out of the groove.

[0080] The inner frame is also provided with a bottom anti-diffraction support 217. Please refer to Figure 14 As shown, the bottom anti-diffraction support 217 is provided with a groove for supporting the anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4. The anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4 is provided with a through slot corresponding to the bottom anti-diffraction support 217. The bottom anti-diffraction support 217 passes through the through slot, so that the wall of the through slot is clamped in the groove. A bottom insulating block 2171 is arranged beside the groove to prevent the anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4 from coming out of the groove.

[0081] It should be noted that the first upper support 22, the second upper support 23, the third upper support 24, the fourth upper support 25, the first right support 26, the second right support 27, the third right support 28, the first lower support 29, the second lower support 210, the third lower support 211, the fourth lower support 212, the first left support 213, the second left support 214, and the third left support 215 can be designed with different lengths and shapes according to the shape of the substrate 3, including a "one" shape, a "7" shape, a "Z" shape, a "U" shape, etc. Under the cooperation of the supports, the shielding plates, and the anti-diffraction supports, the anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4 is fixed in a structure state that conforms to the size and curved surface shape of the substrate 3. All the supports are not directly connected with the anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4, but are connected through the corresponding shielding plates, so that the workpiece frame and the substrate will not be discharged, avoiding damage to the substrate. The anti-diffraction supports are appropriately arranged to be connected with the anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4, preventing unnecessary diffraction or scattering of vapor molecules or atoms released by the evaporation source before reaching the surface of the substrate, and ensuring that the back of the substrate 3 is not contaminated.

[0082] Specifically, a total of 14 supports are arranged around the inner frame 21, and a bottom anti-diffraction support 217 is arranged at the middle position of the top to provide support and fixing effect for the anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4, so that the anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4 will not shake due to the inertia effect of the movement of the workpiece frame. In this way, it can not only adapt to the fixing of special-shaped curved substrates, but also maintain the special-shaped curved shape of the anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4, which can well conform to the substrate 3. The substrate 3 is installed on the anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4 through the movable support 218 and the second upper anti-diffraction support 232. Only by rotating the movable support 218 and the second upper anti-diffraction support 232 to separate the substrate from the anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4, replacing a new substrate 3, and rotating the movable support 218 and the second upper anti-diffraction support 232 to fix the new substrate 3 on the anti-diffraction shielding plate frame 4, the disassembly and replacement are convenient and simple, and the production efficiency is improved.

[0083] The outer workpiece frame 1 is provided with an insulating shielding assembly on the upper and lower parts, and a plurality of grooves parallel to the upper and lower planes of the insulating plate are formed around the insulating plate. The grooves can effectively disconnect the plating layer and prevent the conductive film from being connected to other metal parts to cause discharge lines on the plating surface of the substrate, thereby ensuring the plating quality.

[0084] The above content is only an example and description of the structure of the present application. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or supplements to the described specific embodiments or use similar ways to replace them, as long as they do not deviate from the structure of the invention or exceed the scope defined by the present claims, which shall belong to the protection scope of the present application.
