Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of material surface treatment technology, specifically to a method for preparing a yttrium oxide-zirconia composite coating. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, as the semiconductor integrated circuit industry moves towards miniaturization, the high-density plasma environment in dry etching processes places extremely high demands on the protection of components within the reaction chamber. This is especially true for optical windows and transparent protective covers responsible for process monitoring; they not only need extremely strong resistance to chemical corrosion to prevent impurity particles from contaminating the wafer, but also must maintain excellent optical transmittance to ensure the accuracy of spectral monitoring. Yttrium oxide thin films, with their extremely low standard formation free energy and excellent thermodynamic stability, are widely recognized as the preferred protective material against fluorine- or chlorine-based plasma corrosion.

[0003] However, significant technical bottlenecks remain when using existing physical vapor deposition techniques such as magnetron sputtering to prepare yttrium oxide thin films. On the one hand, the high-energy particle bombardment and oxygen-deficient environment during the deposition process easily induce high concentrations of oxygen vacancies within the coating. These vacancies form deep-level defect states and absorption centers in the band gap, resulting in a pale yellow coating with significantly reduced transparency, making it difficult to meet the standards for use in precision optical components. On the other hand, pure yttrium oxide thin films tend to grow in columnar crystal form, with a loose structure and micropores at the grain boundaries. Corrosive plasma can easily penetrate inward along the grain boundary channels and accelerate etching, severely limiting the density and lifespan of the coating. Summary of the Invention

[0036] The following detailed description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, will further illustrate the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0037] The following description is intended to disclose the invention and enable those skilled in the art to implement it. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and other obvious variations will occur to those skilled in the art.

[0038] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for preparing a yttrium oxide-zirconia composite coating, comprising the following steps:

[0039] Step S11: Install the cleaned and dried glass substrate on the rotating base platform in the coating chamber, and introduce argon plasma into the coating chamber to bombard and clean the surface of the glass substrate.

[0040] It should be noted that in step S11, the rotating base platform is provided with a pulse bias power supply that applies a negative bias voltage to the glass substrate and a heating device for heating the glass substrate.

[0041] Specifically, the voltage range of the pulse bias power supply is 50~200V, and the heating temperature range of the heating device is 0~300℃.

[0042] Preferably, the reciprocating rotation angle of the rotating base platform is 30~120°, the rotation speed is 1~5 rpm, and the reciprocating cycle is 50~200 times.

[0043] It should be noted that in step S11, the gas ion source is a linear anodic ion source, the argon flow rate is 5~30 sccm, the voltage is adjustable in the range of 800~1200V, and the bombardment time is 5~30 min. The purpose is to remove the residual water molecule film and organic matter on the surface of the glass substrate to be coated after pretreatment, and to activate the glass substrate and improve the film-substrate adhesion through particle bombardment.

[0044] In step S12, argon and oxygen are introduced into the coating chamber, and magnetron sputtering is performed on the yttrium target and zirconium target to deposit a yttrium oxide-zirconia composite coating on the surface of the reciprocating rotating glass substrate. The flow ratio of argon to oxygen is 12:1, the sputtering power of the yttrium target is 200~500W, and the sputtering power of the zirconium target is 20~60W.

[0045] It should be noted that in step S12, when the cavity vacuum degree is 8×10 -4 ~1×10 -3 Within the Pa range, the coating process can begin. Since Zr is only used as a control component, while Y₂O₃ is the main phase of the coating, the yttrium and zirconium targets employ an asymmetric design in cathode size. Furthermore, the Zr target uses a DC power supply to achieve a gentler and more stable sputtering behavior, while the Y target uses a pulsed DC power supply primarily to improve discharge stability and film density.

[0046] Specifically, the yttrium target sputtering cathode uses a magnetron sputtering rectangular cathode with an area of ​​(1~5)×10 5 mm 3 And it uses a pulsed DC power supply;

[0047] The zirconium target sputtering cathode uses a magnetron sputtering circular cathode with an area of ​​(5~8)×10 3 mm 2 It uses a DC power supply.

[0048] Preferably, the distance between the yttrium target sputtering cathode and the zirconium target sputtering cathode and the surface of the glass substrate to be coated is 50~300mm.

[0049] Specifically, in step S12, the flow rate of argon is 20~40 sccm, the flow rate of oxygen is 1~10 sccm, the sputtering voltage range of the yttrium target is 100~500V, and the sputtering voltage range of the zirconium target is 200~400V.

[0050] It should be noted that, prior to step S11, the preparation method further includes:

[0051] The glass substrate was ultrasonically cleaned in an alcohol solution and then dried. The ultrasonic cleaning time was 5 to 30 minutes.

[0052] Specifically, the total thickness of the yttrium oxide-zirconia composite coating is 1~10μm.
