Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of microwave impedance matching technology, and in particular to an impedance matching method, system, terminal and storage medium for an MPCVD device. Background Technology
[0002] In MPCVD (Microwave Plasma Assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition) equipment, microwaves are coupled into the reaction chamber via waveguides to excite gases and form plasma for the growth of high-quality diamond films. To achieve efficient energy transfer and avoid damage to the microwave source, it is essential to ensure the microwave system is in a good impedance-matched state, i.e., minimizing reflected power. Traditional equipment commonly uses a "triple stub tuner" for manual adjustment. The operator rotates three metal probes (pins) located on the waveguide to change their insertion depth, thereby adjusting the microwave field distribution and achieving impedance matching. However, this method has the following drawbacks: it relies on manual experience, requiring the operator to adjust based on experience and reflected power values, resulting in high subjectivity and poor consistency; the adjustment accuracy is low, as manual knobs cannot achieve sub-millimeter precision positioning, affecting the matching effect.
[0003] Therefore, existing technologies still need to be improved and developed. Summary of the Invention

[0050] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and effects of this application clearer and more explicit, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments are only possible technical implementations of this application and not all possible implementations. Based on the embodiments in this application, those skilled in the art can obtain other embodiments without creative effort, and these embodiments are also within the protection scope of this application.
[0051] In related technologies, manual operation struggles to achieve high-precision adjustments to the three pin positions, resulting in low accuracy. This leads to inaccurate microwave reflection power adjustment, impacting the quality and consistency of diamond growth. When rapid adjustments to microwave reflection power are required based on process demands, manual operation is far slower than automated control systems, resulting in slow response times and missed optimal adjustment opportunities, affecting product quality. Prolonged fine-tuning can cause operator fatigue, especially with frequent adjustments, leading to high labor intensity, reduced efficiency, and increased error rates. Differences in individual operating habits and judgment standards make consistency difficult to guarantee, resulting in poor repeatability—a significant challenge for production processes requiring strict parameter control. Purely manual control typically lacks real-time data feedback, making it difficult for operators to understand the current working status and effects, hindering timely adjustments. In some situations, such as high-temperature, high-pressure, or hazardous environments, direct manual operation may pose a threat to operator health and safety. Compared to automated systems, manual control often requires more time to complete the same task, resulting in lower overall production efficiency. When operated manually, the response speed is slow, and it cannot respond in real time when the process changes dynamically (such as changes in gas composition, pressure, and temperature); the repeatability is poor, and the adjustment results vary greatly between different batches or different operators, affecting the stability of product quality; the labor intensity is high and there are safety hazards, as it is necessary to operate close to the microwave area when the equipment is running, which poses a risk of electromagnetic radiation.
[0052] As is understandable, MPCVD stands for Microwave Plasma Assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition. MPCVD equipment is a core component used for the growth of high-quality diamond thin films, achieving material deposition through microwave-excited plasma.
[0053] To address the problem of impedance mismatch in the medium microwave system caused by manual adjustment of the three pins in MPCVD equipment, this application collects the reflected power data of the MPCVD equipment and electrically controls the position adjustment of the three pins, thereby enabling stable control of the reflected power, ensuring efficient microwave energy transmission, and achieving high-precision impedance matching.
[0054] The technical solutions of this application will be described in detail below with specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some embodiments.
[0055] like Figure 1As shown, the MPCVD equipment described in the preferred embodiment of this application is equipped with an electric three-pin connector. Each pin connects to a transmission module consisting of a stepper motor and a coupling. The motor is fixed to a dedicated bracket on the outer wall of the waveguide, and the output shaft is connected to the original manual lead screw via a flexible coupling to achieve backlash-free transmission. Combined with a step angle motor with a minimum of 0.005492 degrees, high resolution can be achieved. This application employs a high-performance closed-loop stepper motor driver, supporting microstepping control (up to 64 microsteps), ensuring smooth and vibration-free operation, and possessing multi-axis synchronous control capabilities.
[0056] Furthermore, the pins, controlled by a motor, move up and down to adjust the microwave reflection path within the resonant cavity, optimizing plasma distribution. A connecting rod, a rigid component linking the three pins, ensures synchronized pin movement. A through-axis stepper motor, driven by a screw, moves the connecting rod up and down, achieving precise pin position adjustment (small lead, high accuracy). A limit ring, positioned on the outside of the connecting rod, prevents the pins from exceeding their travel range, protecting the equipment. In the cooling system, water-cooled copper pipes surround the pin area, circulating cooling water carrying away the heat generated by the high-temperature plasma, maintaining stable equipment temperature. Copper pipe clamps ensure reliable connection between the cooling pipes and the cavity, preventing leaks caused by vibration.
[0057] In this application, the three pins are arranged in an equilateral triangle with maximized spacing to improve positioning accuracy. The pin axes are perpendicular to the cavity axis to ensure the symmetry of microwave reflection. A stepper motor drives a connecting rod, causing the three pins to rise and fall synchronously, changing the distribution of the microwave field within the cavity, thereby controlling the density and uniformity of the plasma.
[0058] The impedance matching method for the MPCVD equipment described in the preferred embodiment of this application, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the impedance matching method for the MPCVD equipment includes the following steps:
[0059] In step S101, the initial reflection power of the MPCVD device during operation is obtained.
[0060] Specifically, after the MPCVD equipment is started, the system reads the initial reflected power in real time through the microwave detection module to determine the current impedance matching status.
[0061] In step S102, if the initial reflection power is greater than a preset threshold, the position of the three pins is adjusted multiple times to obtain the current reflection power data of the MPCVD device.
[0062] Specifically, if the initial reflected power exceeds a preset threshold, the automatic matching algorithm is triggered; otherwise, the system remains in standby mode. It is understood that users can customize the preset threshold to reflect the system's upper tolerance limit for reflected power. It is also understood that the preset threshold is a fixed value, the size of which is set according to actual requirements; it can be a percentage (e.g., 5%) or a fixed value, without specific limitations here.
[0063] In one possible implementation, the current reflection power data includes a first reflection power, a second reflection power, and a third reflection power. The positions of the three pins are adjusted a first time to obtain the first reflection power of the MPCVD device, wherein the first reflection power is less than the initial reflection power; the positions of the three pins are adjusted a second time to obtain the second reflection power of the MPCVD device; the positions of the three pins are adjusted a preset number of times to obtain at least one third reflection power of the MPCVD device.
[0064] In one possible implementation, before the first adjustment of the three pins' positions, historical data of the MPCVD device is acquired; based on the initial reflection power and the historical data, the adjustment direction of the three pins is determined, so that the positions of the three pins are adjusted for the first time according to the adjustment direction.
[0065] Specifically, the position of each pin is adjusted sequentially (e.g., slightly moved up or down), and the change in reflected power is observed. If the reflected power decreases after adjustment in a certain direction, it is marked as a favorable direction; if it increases, it is marked as an unfavorable direction. It can be understood that the three pins are adjusted simultaneously, and the feedback from the three directions is considered to select the globally optimal adjustment path.
[0066] In one possible implementation, during the first adjustment of the three pins, the three pins are controlled to adjust their front and middle sections by a fixed step size along the adjustment direction, and their tail sections are controlled to adjust their tail sections by a dynamic step size along the adjustment direction, thereby obtaining the first reflection power of the MPCVD equipment, wherein the fixed step size is greater than the dynamic step size. During the second adjustment, the three pins are controlled to adjust their front and middle sections by a fixed step size along the adjustment direction, and their tail sections are controlled to adjust their tail sections by a dynamic step size along the adjustment direction, thereby obtaining the second reflection power of the MPCVD equipment.
[0067] During the third adjustment, if the second reflection power is less than the first reflection power, the three pins are controlled to perform a third adjustment of the front-middle section position by a fixed step size along the adjustment direction, and the three pins are controlled to perform a third adjustment of the tail section position by a dynamic step size along the adjustment direction, to obtain the third reflection power of the MPCVD equipment; if the second reflection power is greater than the first reflection power, the three pins are controlled to perform a third adjustment of the front-middle section position by a fixed step size along the opposite direction of the adjustment direction, and the three pins are controlled to perform a third adjustment of the tail section position by a dynamic step size along the opposite direction of the adjustment direction, to obtain the third reflection power of the MPCVD equipment.
[0068] It can be understood that a fixed step size is a larger step size (such as 0.1 mm) used in the initial stage to quickly approach the optimal region; a dynamic step size is a step size that is gradually reduced (such as 0.01 mm) after approaching the optimal region to avoid oscillation.
[0069] Specifically, if the current reflection frequency is less than the previous reflection frequency, the adjustment continues in the current direction; if the current reflection frequency is greater than or equal to the previous reflection frequency, the adjustment is reversed or the step size is reduced.
[0070] In step S103, the target reflection power is determined based on the current reflection power data, wherein the target reflection power is less than the preset threshold.
[0071] In one possible implementation, the preset number of times is multiple, and the number of third reflection powers is multiple. When the first reflection power, the second reflection power, and the third reflection power corresponding to the third position adjustment are all less than a preset threshold, a first difference between the second reflection power and the first reflection power is calculated, and a second difference between the third reflection power and the second reflection power is calculated. If both the first difference and the second difference are within a preset range, the minimum value among the first reflection power, the second reflection power, and the third reflection power is taken as the target reflection power; or when multiple consecutive third reflection powers are less than the preset threshold, the power difference between every two adjacent third reflection powers is calculated. If multiple power differences are within a preset range, the minimum value among the multiple consecutive third reflection powers is taken as the target reflection power; or
[0072] The minimum value among the first reflection power, the second reflection power, and the plurality of third reflection powers is taken as the target reflection power.
[0073] Specifically, if the reflected power is below the threshold for N consecutive times (e.g., 3 times) and the fluctuation is less than the tolerance range (e.g., ±1%), the iteration terminates; or if the maximum number of adjustment steps (e.g., 50 steps) is reached, the iteration terminates to prevent infinite loops.
[0074] In step S104, the three pins are adjusted to the target position according to the target reflection power to complete the impedance matching of the MPCVD equipment.
[0075] In one possible implementation, when the target reflection power is the last third reflection power, the current position of the three pins corresponding to the third reflection power is taken as the target position; when the target reflection power is not the last third reflection power, the target position of the three pins is determined according to the target reflection power, and the three pins are controlled to be adjusted to the target position.
[0076] Specifically, once the termination condition is met, the matching is considered complete, and the motor stops moving.
[0077] In one possible implementation, the current process mode of the MPCVD equipment is obtained; the target position is used as the set position corresponding to the current process mode, so that when the MPCVD equipment is in the current process mode again, the three pins are adjusted to the corresponding set position.
[0078] Specifically, after the matching is completed, the current position of the three pins and the adjustment parameters (such as step size and convergence time) are recorded and saved to the process database for later reuse.
[0079] The specific implementation of this application will be described below with reference to a specific application scenario.
[0080] In automatic matching mode, the MPCVD equipment is started, and the plasma is ignited. The system reads the current reflection power r. p If r p If the reflected power exceeds the threshold, the automatic matching algorithm is activated. The controller employs a "hill-climbing method," gradually adjusting the positions of the three pins to find the point of minimum reflected power. The hill-climbing method is a feedback-based successive approximation optimization algorithm. Its core idea is: "Adjust the pin positions in the direction that reduces reflected power, gradually moving downhill until no better direction can be found." It does not rely on a system model, is simple to implement, and is particularly suitable for engineering problems like microwave matching where the input-output relationship is complex and difficult to model. When r p Once the reflected power remains consistently below a threshold for a certain period, adjustment is stopped. This threshold is defined as the point where the reflected power on the touchscreen is low enough that the value does not "jump." The optimal parameters for this operation are recorded for reuse in subsequent processes.
[0081] In the preset process mode, users can save multiple sets of "process recipes" in advance, including the target positions and matching conditions of the three pins; they can call them with one click under the same process conditions to achieve quick matching.
[0082] In this application, dual hardware and software limits are set to prevent motor overshoot; the current position is automatically remembered in case of abnormal power failure; electromagnetic compatibility design is adopted, the motor cable is shielded twisted pair cable, and it is kept away from microwave path; the emergency stop button can immediately cut off the power supply to all motors.
[0083] This application significantly improves matching accuracy, enabling micron-level positioning with a stepper motor and stable control of reflection power within 1%. It boasts a fast response speed, reducing the matching time from 5-10 minutes manually to 30-60 seconds. The process exhibits high repeatability, with good consistency in matching results across different batches, enhancing the uniformity and quality stability of the diamond film. This application reduces reliance on manual labor and operational experience, lowering training costs. It supports intelligent integration, connecting to factory MES systems for remote monitoring and data traceability. This application enhances safety by preventing close-range operation in a microwave environment, reducing occupational health risks. Finally, it extends equipment lifespan and reduces the risk of magnetron damage due to high reflection power.
[0084] Next, referring to the accompanying drawings, the impedance matching system of the MPCVD equipment proposed according to the embodiments of this application is described, and the impedance matching method of the MPCVD equipment applied to any one of the above schemes is described.

[0086] like Figure 3 As shown, the impedance matching system of the MPCVD equipment includes: a power acquisition module 100, a power monitoring module 200, a power optimization module 300, and a pin adjustment module 400.
[0087] Specifically, the power acquisition module 100 is used to acquire the initial reflected power when the MPCVD equipment is working;
[0088] The power monitoring module 200 is used to adjust the position of the three pins multiple times if the initial reflection power is greater than a preset threshold, so as to obtain the current reflection power data of the MPCVD equipment.
[0089] The power optimization module 300 is used to determine the target reflection power based on the current reflection power data, wherein the target reflection power is less than the preset threshold.
[0090] The pin adjustment module 400 is used to adjust the three pins to the target position according to the target reflection power in order to complete the impedance matching of the MPCVD equipment.
