Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of magnetic sputtering coating equipment, in particular to a flexible material magnetron sputtering vacuum coating machine. Background Art
[0002] Magnetron sputtering coating, referred to as PVD coating, is an important method of vacuum coating. It uses high-energy particles (usually positive ions accelerated by an electric field, such as argon ions) to bombard the solid surface, so that the atoms or molecules on the solid surface exchange kinetic energy with the incident high-energy particles and then splash out from the solid surface. These sputtered atoms (or atomic groups) have a certain amount of energy and can be re-deposited and condensed on the surface of the solid substrate to form a thin film, that is, sputtering coating. For example, the Chinese invention application with publication number CN114635110A discloses a magnetron sputtering vacuum coating machine, including a box-type coating machine chamber, a base fixedly connected to the bottom of the coating machine, and a coating machine chamber door connected by a hinge. A door closer is fixedly connected to the right side of the machine, and the door closer presses the chamber door. The magnetron sputtering vacuum coating machine also includes: a target material sputtering mechanism includes a plurality of magnetron targets, and the magnetron targets include a target material and a rotating cathode installed on the coating machine. The magnetron targets are arranged in a plurality of groups, and two groups of magnetron targets are arranged in the center of the coating machine chamber, and two groups of magnetron targets are symmetrically arranged on the sides of the inner side of the coating machine chamber. At present, in the field of magnetron sputtering coating, there are many operational requirements for coating flexible substrates, and the flexible substrates are mainly flexible thin film substrates. The current magnetron sputtering coating equipment has the following defects when targeting such flexible thin film substrates:
[0003] During magnetron sputtering coating operations, heat is generated when the target material is bombarded. In order to ensure the quality of the coating, the substrate needs to be sputtered for a long time, which will cause the substrate to be subjected to high heat. The flexible film substrate is very easy to deform when heated, which not only affects the quality of the coating but also damages the substrate. Flexible film substrates are difficult to fix and are prone to wrinkles. If a large pulling force is applied to avoid wrinkles, it is easy to deform and affect the uniformity of the coating.
[0004] To this end, we propose a flexible material magnetron sputtering vacuum coating machine to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
