[0121] In this embodiment, the heating temperature of the heating device 111 is from 0 degrees Celsius to 500 degrees Celsius.

[0122] In other embodiments, heating can be performed without using a heating device.

[0123] In this embodiment, the working method of the coating device further includes: adjusting the rotation speed of the stage 110 at different positions to adjust the residence time of the deposition area on each area of the surface of the material to be coated 113, and controlling the film thickness of each area on the surface of the material to be coated 113.

[0124] In the first embodiment, Figures 1 to 4 The coating device deposits a thin film on the surface of a partial area or the entire area of the material to be coated 113. For the specific description of the coating device, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 the accompanying drawings and written description, which will not be elaborated here.

[0125] In this embodiment, the process of depositing a thin film on the surface of a partial area or the entire area of the material to be coated 113 includes a chemical vapor deposition process.

[0126] Depositing a thin film on the surface of a partial area or the entire area of the material to be coated further includes: introducing a first gas into the focused ion source 130; ionizing the first gas into a plasma through a radio frequency module to form a focused ion beam 136 that shoots towards the surface of the material to be coated 113 to form a deposition area, and depositing a thin film on the surface of a partial area or the entire area of the material to be coated 113.

[0127] The first gas includes one or more of a reaction gas and a carrier gas. The reaction gas includes methane (CH4), propylene (C3H6), trimethylsilane (3MS), tetraethoxysilane (TEOS), silane (SiH4), titanium tetrachloride (TiCl4), tungsten hexafluoride (WF6), hydrogen (H2), ammonia (NH3), nitrogen (N2), nitrous oxide (N2O), oxygen (O2), etc.; the carrier gas includes argon or helium, etc.

[0128] For example, the first gas includes helium and propylene. The process of depositing a thin film on the surface of a partial area of the material to be coated 113 is as follows: The inside of the cavity is evacuated to a vacuum state by a vacuum pump; then the material to be coated 113 loaded on the stage 110 is heated to 300 °C to 500 °C by the heating device 111; then the external gas path 142 is controlled to supply the first gas to the focused ion source 130. After being mixed by a gas mixing module (not shown), the first gas is introduced into the inside of the quartz cup 131 through the first intake pipe 133. The introduction ratio of helium and propylene is 10:1 to 60:1. The radio frequency power supply 141 supplies 400 W to 1000 W of radio frequency energy to the coil 135 through the radio frequency matcher 140 to promote the ionization of the mixed gas of helium and propylene inside the quartz cup 131 to form a plasma; a voltage of 400 V to 600 V and 80 V to 120 V is respectively applied to the screen grid and the acceleration grid of the focused grid 132 through a DC power supply (not shown) to screen and accelerate the plasma formed by ionization inside the quartz cup 131, thereby forming a focused ion beam 136 that shoots towards the surface of the material to be coated 113, forming a deposition area 100( Figure 2 and Figure 3 as shown in), supplemented by the heating of the material to be coated 113 by the heating device 111, to promote the deposition and film formation of helium and propylene ions on the partial area of the surface of the material to be coated 113.

[0129] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 , further, after forming a deposition area 100 on the surface of the material to be coated 113 by using helium and propylene as process gases to form a focused ion beam 136, by moving the first slide rail 112 and the second slide rail 114, the deposition area 100 is made to fall on the position of the edge of the material to be coated 113 as shown in Figure 2 . At this time, the first slide rail 112 and the second slide rail 114 are kept stationary, and the material to be coated 113 is driven by the stage 110 to rotate synchronously. At this time, the deposition area 100 will perform deposition processing on the area on path a to complete the deposition and modification of the edge of the material to be coated 113.

[0130] The residence time of the deposition area 100 at each position can be controlled by adjusting the rotation speed of the stage 110 at different positions, so as to realize the control of the thickness of the deposited thin film. The required residence time can be calculated from the previous value of the initial thin film measured. By controlling appropriate process parameters, the modification of the edge of the material to be coated 113 can finally be completed.

[0131] Please continue to refer to Figure 3, Further, perform full-area shaping on the surface of the material to be coated 113. After forming the focused ion beam 136 with helium and propylene as process gases to form the deposition area 100 on the surface of the material to be coated 113, drive the first slide rail 112 and the second slide rail 114 so that the deposition area 100 enters from any top edge of the material to be coated 113. The processing path can be as shown in path b. The deposition area 100 enters from the upper top edge of the material to be coated 113, and then by driving the second slide rail 114, perform shaping processing on a path of the material to be coated 113 in the second direction Y. Secondly, add the drive of the first slide rail 112 to make the path of the deposition area 100 change lines and turn. Repeat the above operations until the entire surface of the material to be coated 113 is completed with deposition shaping.

[0132] By controlling the required residence time of the deposition area 100, the control of the deposition film thickness in different areas can be achieved. The required residence time for each area can be calculated from the previous value of the initial thin film measured.

[0133] In the second embodiment, use Figure 5 the coating equipment to deposit a thin film on the local area surface or the entire area surface of the material to be coated 113.

[0137] The types of the first gas and the second gas are different. In this embodiment, since the first gas and the second gas are gases that are prone to chemical reactions, they are respectively introduced through the first gas inlet pipe 133 and the second gas inlet pipe 212 to avoid the situation where the first gas and the second gas are prone to react in the same gas path.

[0138] For example, the first gas includes nitrous oxide, and the second gas includes silane. The process of depositing a thin film on the surface of a partial area or the entire area of the material to be coated 113 is as follows: The inside of the cavity is evacuated to a vacuum state by a vacuum pump; the heating device 111 heats the material to be coated 113 loaded on the stage 110 to 300 degrees Celsius to 500 degrees Celsius; the external gas path 142 supplies the first gas nitrous oxide to the focused ion source 130 and the second gas silane to the gas jet device 210. The first gas N2O is introduced into the interior of the quartz cup 131 through the first gas inlet pipe 133. The radio frequency power supply 141 supplies 100 W to 1000 W of radio frequency energy to the coil 135 through the radio frequency matcher 140 to promote the ionization of N2O inside the quartz cup 131 to form a plasma; a DC power supply (not shown) applies voltages of 400 V to 600 V and 80 V to 120 V to the screen grid and the acceleration grid of the focusing grid 132 respectively, which are used to screen and accelerate the plasma formed by ionization inside the quartz cup 131, so as to form a focused ion beam 136 that shoots towards the surface of the material to be coated 113, forming a deposition area 100 ( Figure 2 and Figure 3 as shown in); the gas jet device 210 sprays the second gas silane towards the position of the deposition area 100, assisted by the heating of the material to be coated 113 by the heating device 111, to promote the deposition of a SiO2 thin film on the surface of a partial area of the material to be coated 113.

[0139] By planning the movement path of the deposition area 100 on the surface of the material to be coated 113, coordinating the movement of the first slide rail 112 and the second slide rail 114 and the rotation of the stage 110, local deposition shaping (refer to Figure 2 ) and full deposition shaping (refer to Figure 3 ) of the surface of the material to be coated 113 are realized.

[0140] In the third embodiment, the coating equipment of Figure 6 and Figure 7 is used to deposit a thin film on the surface of a partial area or the entire area of the material to be coated 113. For the specific description of the coating equipment, please refer to the drawings and text descriptions of Figure 5 and Figure 6 , which will not be elaborated here.

[0144] The first gas includes inert gases, and the inert gases include argon or helium.

[0145] For example, when the first gas includes argon, the process of depositing a thin film on the surface of a partial area or the entire area of the material to be coated 113 is as follows: controlling the rotation angles of the focused ion source 130 and the target assembly 230, adjusting the two to preset positions, the focused ion source 130 emits a focused ion beam 136 to bombard the surface of the target 233, forming sputtering particles 240 that shoot towards the surface of the partial material to be coated 113, forming a deposition area 100, and realizing local deposition on the surface of the material to be coated 113.

[0146] By planning the movement path of the deposition area 100 on the surface of the material to be coated 113, coordinating with the movement of the first slide rail 112 and the second slide rail 114 and the rotation of the stage 110, local shaping (refer to Figure 2 ) and overall shaping (refer to Figure 3 ) of the surface of the material to be coated 113 are realized.

[0150] One case is that one end of the connecting rod 137 is fixedly connected to the third slide rail 138, and the connecting rod 137 cannot drive the focused ion source 130 to rotate around the first direction X. The stage is driven to rotate around the first direction X by rotating the rotating shaft.
