[0055] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.
[0056] The principle and structure of the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0057] Most of the current PECVD vertical furnaces can only hold one or two carriers. Moreover, due to the need for a certain process temperature and special gases to complete the reaction, the temperature and gas cannot be evenly distributed throughout the furnace in the vertical furnace body, resulting in uneven yields of the battery wafers in the same batch and unable to meet the production requirements. During the process, the carrier also needs to be powered on to complete the reaction, but the previous vertical furnace only placed the silicon wafers in the carrier without corresponding conductive electrodes.
[0058] In response to this, as Figures 1 to 6 shown, the present utility model proposes a vertical PECVD device, which specifically includes: an outer furnace tube 11, an inner furnace tube 12, a heat source, a furnace cover assembly, a furnace door 3, an electrode 42 and a radio frequency power supply 41. The inner furnace tube 12 is coaxially arranged with the outer furnace tube 11 and is located inside the outer furnace tube 11, so as to form an annular straight-through chamber between the inner furnace tube 12 and the outer furnace tube 11. The furnace cover assembly and the furnace door 3 are respectively arranged at the upper and lower ends of the inner furnace tube 12 and the outer furnace tube 11 to seal both ends of the straight-through chamber. The heat source is arranged on the outer furnace tube and / or the inner furnace tube and can heat the straight-through chamber through the tube walls of the inner and outer furnace tubes. The electrode 42 penetrates through the furnace cover assembly and is fixedly sealed at the penetration point, so that one end of the electrode 42 extends into the straight-through chamber and one end is located outside the straight-through chamber. Among them, the end located inside the straight-through chamber is connected to the carrier 50, and the end located outside the straight-through chamber is connected to the radio frequency power supply 42.
[0059] That is, by powering on the carrier, the process reaction that requires the carrier to be powered on to complete is satisfied, and at the same time, there is a heat source that can heat the straight-through chamber inside the furnace tube.
[0060] Specifically, the radio frequency power supply 41 can be a single-channel radio frequency power supply, that is, a single-channel radio frequency power supply is externally connected to a pair of electrodes corresponding to each vehicle. In other embodiments, the radio frequency power supply can also be a multi-channel radio frequency power supply, that is, a single radio frequency power supply is simultaneously connected to the electrodes of multiple vehicles for power supply.
[0061] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, in the first embodiment, the furnace cover assembly only includes the furnace cover 2. The furnace cover 2 is arranged at the upper end of the furnace tube 1, and the furnace door 3 is arranged at the lower end of the furnace tube 1; the penetration position of the electrode 42 is on the furnace cover 2, that is, a through hole is preset on the furnace cover 2, and an electrode joint 43 with a sealed connection is arranged at the through hole, which can be used to connect the part of the electrode 42 located in the straight-through chamber and the part located outside the straight-through chamber. Both ends of the part of the electrode 42 located in the straight-through chamber are connected to the inner end of the electrode joint 43 and the vehicle 50, and the part of the electrode 42 located outside the straight-through chamber is an electrode wire for connecting the outer end of the electrode joint 43 and the radio frequency power supply.
[0062] As Figures 4 to 6 shown, in the second embodiment, the furnace cover assembly only includes the furnace cover 2. The furnace cover 2 is hermetically arranged at the lower end of the furnace tube 1, and the furnace door is hermetically arranged at the upper end of the furnace tube 1; the penetration position of the electrode 42 is on the furnace cover, that is, a through hole is preset on the furnace cover, and an electrode joint or the electrode can be directly passed through at the through hole; arranging an electrode joint is convenient for sealed installation. Taking the electrode joint as an example, the electrode joint is used as a connection intermediate piece to connect the internal electrode and the external electrode respectively. The internal electrode is connected to the inner end of the electrode joint and the vehicle, and the external electrode is used to connect the outer end of the electrode and the radio frequency power supply.
[0063] In the above two embodiments, 6 electrode joints 43 are arranged on the furnace cover 2 and are arranged in a ring along the furnace cover 2 in a circle, corresponding to the positions of the vehicles located in the furnace tube, which is convenient for wiring between the vehicle and the electrode joint.
[0064] The 6 electrode joints are adjacent to each other in pairs. Two adjacent electrode joints 43 form a pair, which are the positive electrode and the negative electrode respectively. A pair of electrode joints 43 are respectively connected to the positive electrode introduction end and the negative electrode introduction end of a vehicle.
[0065] In the above two embodiments, the inner furnace tube 12 can be a through-type inner furnace tube 12, that is, both ends are open. At the same time, the furnace cover 2 and the furnace door 3 are provided with central holes corresponding to the two open ends. At the same time, sealing flanges are provided at the upper and lower ends of the inner furnace tube to be hermetically connected to the furnace cover and the furnace door respectively, and support flanges are provided, so that the inner furnace tube can be hoisted from the top through the support flange or supported from the bottom through the support flange.
[0066] In other embodiments, the inner furnace tube 12 can also have a structure with one end open and the other end hemispherical. When the hemispherical end of the inner furnace tube faces the furnace lid, the furnace lid does not need to have a central hole in the center; when the hemispherical end of the inner furnace tube faces the furnace door, the furnace door does not need to have a central hole in the center.
[0067] In a specific embodiment, outer sealing flanges are provided on the outer walls at both ends of the outer furnace tube 11; the outer edges of the furnace lid 2 of the furnace lid assembly and the furnace door 3 are hermetically connected to the outer sealing flanges at both ends of the outer furnace tube.
[0068] In a preferred embodiment, the furnace lid assembly includes: a furnace lid 2 and a magnetohydrodynamic sealing component 6; the pecvd device further includes a rotating device; a central hole is provided in the center of the furnace lid 2, and the magnetohydrodynamic sealing component 6 is hermetically connected between the end of the inner furnace tube 12 and the edge of the central hole of the furnace lid 2. At the same time, the magnetohydrodynamic sealing component has a transmission shaft 63, the driving end of the transmission shaft 63 is located outside the furnace tube, and the transmission end of the transmission shaft 63 is located in the straight-through chamber, so that external power can penetrate into the straight-through chamber through the transmission shaft, and at the same time, the sealing performance of the straight-through chamber can be ensured.
[0069] The rotating device is installed in the straight-through chamber and is connected to the transmission end of the transmission shaft 63. A plurality of carrier positions are provided on the rotating device, which can carry or hang the carrier 50, and drive the carrier 50 on the carrier position to rotate around the inner furnace tube 12;
[0070] The electrode 42 is inserted through the transmission shaft 63 of the magnetohydrodynamic sealing component 6. Specifically, an electrode channel is arranged along the axial direction of the transmission shaft 63 and penetrates through both ends of the transmission shaft (specifically, it can be the end face or the side face of the end), so that the electrode 42 can be connected to the straight-through chamber from the outside diameter of the transmission shaft through the electrode channel. At the same time, the gap between the electrode and the electrode channel is sealed, and moreover, the electrode can also follow.
[0071] Alternatively, it can also be that the electrode is directly inserted through the transmission shaft of the magnetohydrodynamic sealing component, and then the electrode is connected to the inside and outside respectively, which is convenient for sealing.
[0072] Specifically, the magnetohydrodynamic sealing component 6 includes: an annular outer ring part, an inner ring part and a transmission shaft 63. The top surface of its outer ring part is hermetically connected to the edge of the central hole of the furnace lid. Specifically, a sealing ring can be added; the top surface of the inner ring part is hermetically connected to the sealing flange provided at the lower end of the inner furnace tube 12. The gap between the inner ring part and the outer ring part of the magnetohydrodynamic sealing component is a ring-shaped rotating sealing space, and the transmission shaft 63 penetrates through this rotating sealing space;
[0073] A magnetic fluid (not shown in the figure) is provided in the gap between the inner wall surface of the transmission shaft 63 and the outer wall surface of the inner ring portion of the magnetic fluid sealing member. Specifically, multiple annular grooves can be provided on the inner wall surface of the transmission shaft 63 or multiple annular grooves can be provided on the outer wall surface of the inner ring portion of the magnetic fluid sealing member to place the magnetic fluid, forming multiple sealing rings in the gap between the inner wall surface of the transmission shaft 59 and the outer wall surface of the inner ring portion of the magnetic fluid sealing member 6;
[0074] The magnetic fluid is also provided in the same way between the outer wall surface of the transmission shaft and the inner wall surface of the outer ring portion of the magnetic fluid sealing member. Permanent magnets are provided inside both the outer ring portion and the inner ring portion, and the magnetic poles serve as the inner wall of the rotating sealing space, enabling the magnetic fluid to surround the transmission shaft 63, so that the magnetic fluid forms multiple sealing rings in the gap between the outer wall surface of the transmission shaft and the inner wall surface of the outer ring portion of the magnetic fluid sealing member.
[0075] A gear 631 is provided on the outer wall surface of one end of the transmission shaft outside the furnace tube or a pulley is sleeved, so that the rotating shaft can be driven to rotate by an external power source.
[0076] As Figures 14 to 16 shown, in the third embodiment, that is, a further embodiment of the above-mentioned preferred embodiment, the furnace lid assembly includes: a furnace lid 2 and a magnetic fluid sealing member 6; wherein the furnace lid assembly is located at the upper end of the furnace tube 1, the furnace door 3 is located at the lower end of the furnace tube 1, and multiple annular brush bases 9 are provided outside the upper end of the furnace tube 1. The brush bases 9 are electrically connected to the radio frequency power supply 41 through electrode wires 44. The number of the brush bases 9 is at least two, and can also correspond one by one to the number of electrodes led out from the transmission shaft 63. Taking two as an example, the two brush bases 9 are arranged in parallel and spaced up and down. The position of the brush base 9 is directly opposite to the position of the transmission shaft 63 of the magnetic fluid sealing member 6. The electrodes 42 are connected to the connection ends outside the upper end of the transmission shaft 63 with two electrically conductive heads 91 that bend and extend outwards. The ends of the electrically conductive heads 91 are respectively placed on the two brush bases 9. When the transmission shaft 63 is driven to rotate, the electrically conductive heads 91 at the connection ends of the electrodes 42 move along with the transmission shaft 63, and the ends (contact connection ends) of the electrically conductive heads 91 are slidably electrically connected to the brush bases 9, so that the carrier 50 in the straight-through chamber inside the furnace tube can be connected to the radio frequency power supply 41 located outside through the electrodes 42 and the brush bases 9. And since both the electrodes 42 and the carrier 50 directly follow the rotation of the transmission shaft, the electrodes and the carrier are relatively stationary, which is convenient for the carrier to be electrically connected.
[0077] As Figures 17 to 19As shown, in the fourth embodiment, which is a further embodiment of the above-mentioned preferred embodiment, the furnace lid assembly is located at the lower end, the furnace door 3 is located at the upper end, and a plurality of annular brush bases 9 are provided outside the lower end of the furnace tube 1. The brush bases 9 are electrically connected to the radio frequency power supply 41. The number of brush bases 9 is two, or corresponds one-to-one with the number of lead-out electrodes. Taking two as an example, the two brush bases 9 are parallel and spaced up and down, and at the same time, one has a larger diameter and the other has a smaller diameter. The position of the brush base 9 is directly opposite to the position of the transmission shaft 63 of the magneto-fluid sealing member 6. The two electrodes 42 are connected at the external connection ends to two electric brush heads 91 that bend and extend outwards. The ends of the two electric brush heads 91 are respectively placed on the two brush bases 9. When the transmission shaft 63 is driven to rotate, the electric brush heads 91 at the connection ends of the electrodes 42 move along with the transmission shaft 63, and their ends are in sliding electrical connection with the brush bases 9. Thus, the internal carrier 50 can be connected to the external radio frequency power supply 41 through the electrodes 42 and the brush bases 9. Since both the electrodes 42 and the carrier 50 directly follow the rotation of the transmission shaft, the electrodes and the carrier are relatively stationary, which is convenient for the carrier to be energized and connected.
[0078] As Figures 7 to 10 shown, in the fifth embodiment, which is a further embodiment of the above-mentioned preferred embodiment, the furnace lid assembly is located at the upper end of the furnace tube 1, the furnace door 3 is located at the lower end of the furnace tube 1, and an electric slip ring 8 is provided outside the upper end of the furnace tube 1. The rotating part of the electric slip ring 8 is connected to the transmission shaft 63 through a connecting shaft 81, so that the rotating part of the electric slip ring 8 can follow the rotation of the transmission shaft 63. The outer wall surface of the rotating part of the electric slip ring 8 is an arc surface, and metal conductive ring tracks surrounding the rotating part are provided at different heights on the outer wall surface. The conductive ring tracks correspond one-to-one with the number of electrodes 42 led out from the transmission shaft 63, and the electrodes 42 are electrically connected to the corresponding conductive ring tracks through the connecting shaft 81 (which can be arranged inside the connecting shaft or around the connecting shaft). Since the electrodes 42 are arranged on the transmission shaft 63 and follow the rotation of the transmission shaft, the rotating part of the electric slip ring 8 also follows the rotation of the transmission shaft through the connecting shaft 81, that is, the electrodes are relatively stationary with respect to the rotating part of the electric slip ring, and can be fixedly electrically connected to the corresponding conductive ring tracks on the rotating part of the electric slip ring. The electric slip ring also includes a brush part provided outside the rotating part. Brushes corresponding to the conductive ring tracks are provided on the brush part. The brushes are in contact conduction with the conductive ring tracks, and the brushes are always electrically connected to the conductive ring tracks when the rotating part rotates. Electrode wires 44 electrically connected to the brushes are provided on the brush part, and the electrode wires 44 are electrically connected to the radio frequency power supply 41. Thus, the external radio frequency power supply is conductively connected to the electrodes connecting the carrier through the electric slip ring.
[0079] As Figures 11 to 13As shown, in the sixth embodiment, which is a further embodiment of the above-mentioned preferred embodiment, the furnace cover assembly is located at the lower end of the furnace tube 1, the furnace door 3 is located at the upper end of the furnace tube 1, an electric slip ring 8 is provided outside the lower end of the furnace tube 1, and the rotating part of the electric slip ring 8 is connected to the transmission shaft 63 through a connecting shaft 81, so that the rotating part of the electric slip ring 8 can rotate following the transmission shaft 63. The outer wall surface of the rotating part of the electric slip ring 8 is an arc surface, and metal conductive ring channels surrounding the rotating part are provided at different heights on the outer wall surface. The conductive ring channels correspond one-to-one with the number of electrodes 42 led out from the transmission shaft 63, and the electrodes 42 are electrically connected to the corresponding conductive ring channels through the connecting shaft 81 (which can be arranged inside the connecting shaft or around the connecting shaft). Since the electrodes 42 are arranged on the transmission shaft 63 and rotate following the transmission shaft, the rotating part of the electric slip ring 8 also rotates following the transmission shaft through the connecting shaft 81, that is, the electrodes are stationary relative to the rotating part of the electric slip ring, and the corresponding conductive ring channels on the rotating part of the electric slip ring can be fixedly electrically connected. The electric slip ring further includes a brush part arranged outside the rotating part. Brushes corresponding one-to-one with the conductive ring channels are provided on the brush part. The brushes are in contact conduction with the conductive ring channels, and the brushes are always electrically connected to the conductive ring channels when the rotating part rotates. Electrode wires 44 electrically connected to the brushes are provided on the brush part, and the electrode wires 44 are electrically connected to the radio frequency power supply 41, so that the external radio frequency power supply is electrically connected to the electrodes connected to the carrier through the electric slip ring.
[0080] The rotating device specifically includes: a rotating disk 51, the middle part of the rotating disk 51 is connected to the transmission shaft 63 and is arranged around the inner furnace tube 12, and a plurality of carrier connection parts 52 extending outwards are arranged at the edge of the rotating disk 51. The carrier connection parts 52 can specifically be carrier support seats or carrier hook seats.
[0081] When the rotating disk 51 is located at the top of the straight-through cavity of the furnace tube, the carrier connection part can specifically be a carrier hook seat, and the carrier is hung on the carrier hook seat by hanging and stands upright in the straight-through cavity of the furnace tube.
[0082] When the rotating disk 51 is located at the bottom of the straight-through cavity of the furnace tube 1, the carrier 50 connection part can specifically be a carrier support seat, and the carrier stands upright in the straight-through cavity of the furnace tube by bottom support.
[0083] In a specific embodiment, the outer end surface of the furnace cover 2 far from the straight-through cavity bulges outwards to form a spherical protrusion. Since the straight-through cavity needs to be evacuated, setting the outer end surface of the upper furnace cover as an upwardly protruding spherical protrusion can withstand greater pressure and prevent it from being sucked and deformed when the internal is evacuated.
[0084] And a heat insulation ring package is arranged on the inner end surface of the furnace cover around the central hole. The heat insulation ring package is formed by arranging partitions on the inner end surface of the upper furnace cover around the central hole. Heat insulation components such as reinforcing ribs with through holes and water cooling can be arranged in the heat insulation ring package. The reinforcing ribs can improve the support strength, and the heat insulation components such as water cooling can prevent the heat in the cavity from overflowing from the upper end.
[0085] The furnace door 3 is a spherical convex structure protruding downward. This enables the furnace door to withstand greater pressure, thereby preventing the lower furnace door from being sucked in and damaged when the enclosed space inside the furnace tube is evacuated.
[0086] In a specific embodiment, the furnace door can be set in an integral form, or it can be provided with a plurality of furnace openings penetrating through the furnace door. The size and shape of the furnace openings match the size and shape of the side surface of the carrier, and each furnace opening is correspondingly provided with a furnace cover.
[0087] At the same time, a partition is provided on the inner end surface of the furnace door to form a heat insulation package. Heat insulation components such as water cooling can be arranged inside the heat insulation package to prevent the heat in the chamber from overflowing from the lower end. Reinforcing ribs with through holes can also be provided to improve the strength of the bulging part of the lower furnace door.
[0088] The heating source specifically includes: an internal heating source 72 arranged inside the inner furnace tube 12, and an external heating source 71 arranged outside the outer furnace tube 11. The internal and external heating sources can heat the straight-through chamber 13 of the furnace tube 1 through the tube walls of the inner and outer furnace tubes.
[0089] In a specific embodiment, the external heating source and the internal heating source are an integral whole, that is, the electric heating wire is directly wound on the inner and outer furnace tubes to directly heat the enclosed cavity.
[0090] In a preferred embodiment, both the external heating source 71 and the internal heating source 72 are arranged in a ring shape and are arranged along the height direction of the inner and outer furnace tubes. Specifically, they can be divided into multiple independent heating sections along the height direction of the furnace tube, so as to achieve layered corresponding heating and improve the overall heating efficiency.
[0091] It should be noted that the terms used above are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present invention.

At the same time, it should be understood that for the sake of convenience in description, the dimensions of the various parts shown in the drawings are not drawn in actual proportional relationships. Technologies, methods, and devices known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such technologies, methods, and devices should be regarded as part of the authorization specification. In all the examples shown and discussed here, any specific values should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as a limitation. Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that like reference numerals and letters denote like items in the following drawings, and thus, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent drawings.
[0093] In the description of the present utility model, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationships indicated by orientation terms such as "front, rear, upper, lower, left, right", "lateral, vertical, perpendicular, horizontal", and "top, bottom", etc. are usually based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description. Without contrary instructions, these orientation terms do not indicate and imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and thus should not be construed as limiting the protection scope of the present utility model; the orientation terms "inside, outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the contour of each component itself.
[0094] For the convenience of description, spatial relative terms such as "above...", "over...", "on the upper surface of...", "above" can be used here to describe the spatial positional relationship between a device or feature shown in the figure and other devices or features. It should be understood that the spatial relative terms are intended to include different orientations in use or operation in addition to the orientation described in the figure for the device. For example, if the device in the drawing is inverted, the device described as "above other devices or structures" or "over other devices or structures" will then be positioned as "below other devices or structures" or "under other devices or structures". Thus, the exemplary term "above..." can include both the orientations of "above..." and "below...". The device can also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and corresponding interpretations should be made for the spatial relative descriptions used here.
[0095] The foregoing is only the preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not used to limit the present utility model. For those skilled in the art, the present utility model can have various changes and modifications. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
