Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of aerosol coating, and in particular relates to an aerosol coating device, method and application. Background Art
[0002] The information disclosed in this background technology section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the overall background of the invention, and should not necessarily be regarded as an admission or any form of suggestion that the information constitutes the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art.
[0003] The application of ceramic components in electronic components is gradually increasing. In order to adapt to the development direction of miniaturization / integration of electronic components, ceramic materials are usually added to electronic components in the form of coatings. Usually, the preparation of ceramic materials requires sintering at a temperature above 1000°C. However, many ceramic materials are difficult to form a dense structure at high temperatures, and layered ceramic films cannot be prepared. Aerosol Deposition Method (ADM) is a technology that fluidizes (sub) micron ceramic powder particle raw materials at room temperature, accelerates them to a speed of 100 to 600 m / s, and then impacts the substrate in a low vacuum environment to form a ceramic film. The fluidized ceramic powder particle raw materials will be sprayed in the form of aerosol, and after colliding with the substrate, they will be broken into nano-sized fragments. These fragments will recombine to form the desired ceramic film.
[0004] The prior art usually places ceramic powder in a vibration chamber, loosens it by applying vibration, and then passes a carrier gas through the loose powder to aerosolize the ceramic powder. However, submicron to micron-sized particles have a small size and a high specific surface area. Due to reasons such as surface electrostatic charge and van der Waals force interaction, they have a strong tendency to agglomerate and easily agglomerate to form agglomerates. Agglomerates can reduce deposition efficiency and film quality. When a mechanical vibration system is used to generate aerosols, this agglomeration can even be enhanced, which has an adverse effect on the performance of ceramic films. Summary of the invention
[0005] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an aerosol coating device, method and application, so as to avoid obtaining aerosol in a vibration manner, thereby obtaining a dense ceramic film and achieving controllable coating thickness.

[0010] In a second aspect, an aerosol coating method based on the above-mentioned aerosol coating device comprises the following steps:
[0011] S1. Filling the powder tank with raw material powder and installing the substrate in the deposition device;

[0014] A third aspect is the application of the above-mentioned aerosol coating method in the preparation of electronic components.
[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0016] The present invention provides an aerosol coating device, which uses stirring to obtain loose powders, and the powder feeding process is vibration-free, thereby reducing the friction and agglomeration factors of powder particles caused by vibration; the powder and the carrier gas enter the first carrier gas channel to form an aerosol, and the aerosol is flushed at high speed by the carrier gas at the powder inlet, especially the contraction and expansion section of the venturi tube adjusts the airflow state, which can further solve the problem of powder particle agglomeration.

Since the stirring chamber 14 is connected to the coating chamber 9, the vacuum degree of the two chambers is kept consistent at this time. When the vacuum degree of the coating chamber 9 reaches 5Pa, turn on the carrier gas source 11 to transport the carrier gas (nitrogen in this embodiment) through the first carrier gas channel 13 and the second carrier gas channel 15 respectively. The gas flow rate of the first carrier gas channel 13 is 8L / min, and the gas flow rate of the second carrier gas channel 15 is 2L / min to offset the negative pressure.

Since the stirring chamber 14 and the coating chamber 9 are connected, the vacuum degrees of the two chambers are kept consistent at this time. When the vacuum degree of the coating chamber 9 reaches 15Pa, turn on the carrier gas source 11 to transport the carrier gas (nitrogen in this embodiment) through the first carrier gas channel 13 and the second carrier gas channel 15 respectively. The gas flow rate of the first carrier gas channel 13 is 8L / min, and the gas flow rate of the second carrier gas channel 15 is 2L / min to offset the negative pressure. Start the stirring device 3 at a speed of 60r / min and the conveyor belt at a running speed of 5mm / s, so that the powder delivery amount is ~1.5mm 3 ;
[0071] S3. The stirred loose raw material powder 22 is quantitatively allowed to enter the first carrier gas channel 13 through the powder inlet and is ejected from the nozzle 7 of the deposition device in the form of aerosol to form a ceramic thin film on the substrate, wherein the distance between the nozzle 7 and the substrate is 10 mm and the coating time is 5 minutes.

The dielectric properties are shown in Figure 4 As shown in (c), it shows that the film has excellent dielectric properties, corresponding to good ferroelectric properties.
[0074] Example 4
[0075] A method for preparing an aerosol coating using the aerosol coating device in Example 1 (the raw material powder is barium titanate (BTO) powder with a particle size of less than 1 μm, and the substrate is made of silicon) comprises the following steps:
[0076] S1. BTO powder is loaded into the powder tank 2, and a silicon wafer substrate is mounted on the three-dimensional motion table 8 of the deposition device, and then the stirring chamber 14 and the coating chamber 9 are closed to make it an airtight chamber.
[0077] S2, turn on the vacuum pump 10 to evacuate the chamber. Since the stirring chamber 14 and the coating chamber 9 are connected, the vacuum degrees of the two chambers are kept consistent at this time. When the vacuum degree of the coating chamber 9 reaches 15Pa, turn on the carrier gas source 11 to transport the carrier gas (nitrogen in this embodiment) through the first carrier gas channel 13 and the second carrier gas channel 15 respectively. The gas flow rate of the first carrier gas channel 13 is 8L / min, and the gas flow rate of the second carrier gas channel 15 is 2L / min to offset the negative pressure. Start the stirring device 3 at a speed of 60r / min and the conveyor belt at a running speed of 5mm / s, so that the powder delivery amount is ~1.5mm 3 ;
[0078] S3. The stirred loose raw material powder 22 is quantitatively allowed to enter the first carrier gas channel 13 through the powder inlet and is ejected from the nozzle 7 of the deposition device in the form of aerosol to form a ceramic thin film on the substrate, wherein the distance between the nozzle 7 and the substrate is 10 mm and the coating time is 5 minutes.
[0079] The obtained ceramic film was annealed at 600°C to obtain a product such as Figure 3 As shown in (c), it can be seen that the thickness of the BTO film is about 800nm, it fits tightly to the silicon substrate, and the film cross-section is dense without obvious pores.
[0080] The existing aerosol deposition coating technology, such as Japanese Patent Publication No. 2007-246937, uses gas to pass through a closed powder tank controlled by a shaker or a vibrating table to aerosolize the powder. In this process, the amount of powder aerosolization cannot be quantitatively controlled, such as: the generated aerosol has a high powder content at the initial stage, and the powder content of the generated aerosol decreases due to the reduction of powder in the tank in the later stage, so that the growth rate after the aerosol deposition film forming process changes significantly before and after, and the growth process and thickness of the film (coating) cannot be evaluated and regulated; in addition, in the process of powder aerosolization, due to the characteristics of submicron powders themselves that are easy to adsorb each other, superimposed on factors such as shaker vibration friction, it is very easy to cause serious agglomeration of powders, making the deposited film easy to become loose and porous or even fall off from the substrate surface; in the case of severe agglomeration, the powder cannot be aerosolized, resulting in the inability to carry out the film forming process.
[0081] In the technical solution of Example 1, the powder quantitative transport device transports the powder by a crawler belt, and the crawler belt is controlled and operated by a motor, and the fine quantitative control and transportation of the powder mass are completed by adjusting the motor speed; wherein the stirring device ensures the uniformity and continuity of the powder transported by the crawler belt; the aerosol generating device is composed of an air path system and an aerosol generating device, and the powder is collected through the upper funnel of the aerosol generating device by using the carrier gas of the air path system, and is fully mixed with the carrier gas flow to form an aerosol, and in this process, a high-pressure and high-speed carrier gas flow is generated by the three-way interface provided in the aerosol generating device, and the shearing effect of the gas flow on the powder is used to disperse part of the agglomerated powder; then, the air path system sends the aerosol into the aerosol deposition device, which consists of four parts: a vacuum chamber, a vacuum mechanical pump group, a nozzle and a three-dimensional motion platform; the aerosol in the air path system is accelerated by the nozzle to form a high-speed jet; then the jet impacts the substrate and forms a film; wherein the three-dimensional motion platform provides the function of substrate installation and movement to ensure the area and shape of the substrate deposited film. This method can achieve precise quantitative control of aerosol concentration, avoid powder agglomeration problems during the deposition process, improve film quality, and thereby obtain a more refined ceramic thin film structure as achieved in Examples 2 to 4.
