Only a simple wiping with a dust-free cloth can be used for secondary use, improving the maintenance efficiency of the glass coating target structure.

[0017] The copper back plate 100 is made of copper alloy, which has high thermal conductivity. When the copper back plate 100 is connected with the target body 200, it can conduct the heat generated by the target body 200 under ion bombardment, which helps the target body 200 to dissipate heat quickly, thereby reducing the thermal stress and thermal deformation of the target body 200. The strength and toughness of the copper alloy material can effectively withstand the mechanical pressure generated by the target body 200 during use, thereby reducing the risk of cracking and breaking of the target body 200 and improving the service life of the target body 200.

In the present embodiment, the length of the target body 200 is 1193.8 mm, the width is 127 mm, and the height (or thickness) is 6 mm. Preferably, the target body 200 is centrally arranged on the front surface of the copper back plate 100 and fixedly connected with the copper back plate 100. The contact area (bonding area) between the copper back plate 100 and the target body 200 is 151612.6 mm 2The non-contact area of the copper back plate 100 not combined with the target body 200 is 27251.5584mm 2 The length of the glass coating target structure is 1214.12mm, the width is 147.32mm, and the height is 14mm. The heat-conducting steel strip 300 is used to generate heat radiation to the target body 200 after being heated in the electroplating chamber, so that the target body 200 is heated more uniformly, and the problem of cracking of the target from the middle to the periphery is prevented. In this embodiment, the heat-conducting steel strip 300 is made of stainless steel material, for example, the heat-conducting steel strip 300 is made of 304 steel or 316 steel, of course, other types of stainless steel can also be used to make the heat-conducting steel strip 300.

[0019] In an embodiment, the heat-conducting steel strip 300 is centrally arranged in the groove 210 and fixedly connected with the groove bottom surface of the groove 210. In this way, the distance between the heat-conducting steel strip 300 and the two opposite inner side walls of the groove 210 is equal, thereby improving the heat radiation effect of the heat-conducting steel strip 300 on the target body 200, and further improving the uniformity of the heating of the target body 200. The length of the heat-conducting steel strip 300 is 1025.04mm, and the width is 12mm. In this embodiment, the height of the heat-conducting steel strip 300 is less than or equal to the depth of the groove 210. Preferably, the height of the heat-conducting steel strip 300 is equal to the depth of the groove 210, that is, the surface of the heat-conducting steel strip 300 facing away from the copper back plate 100 is flush with the front surface of the target body 200.

[0020] In an embodiment, the surface roughness Ra of the first annular sandblasted layer 110 is 4-6um, the surface roughness Ra of the second annular sandblasted layer 220 is 4-6um, the surface roughness Ra of the strip-shaped sandblasted layer 310 is 4-6um, and the surface roughness Ra of the inner surface of the groove 210 is less than or equal to 1.6um, that is, the roughness Ra of the sputtering area on the front surface of the target body 200 is less than or equal to 1.6um. Further, the thickness of the first annular sandblasted layer 110 is 32-48um, the thickness of the second annular sandblasted layer 220 is 32-48um, and the thickness of the strip-shaped sandblasted layer 310 is 32-48um, to ensure the stability of the coating layer combined on the first annular sandblasted layer 110, the second annular sandblasted layer 220 and the strip-shaped sandblasted layer 310, so that the coating layer covering the front surface of the glass coating target structure will not fall off or curl even in the atmospheric state, preventing the coating layer from falling off from the glass coating target structure due to gas impact when the glass coating target structure is moved after being covered with the coating layer or when the glass coating target structure is opened for maintenance after being placed in the coating chamber, thereby improving the cleanliness of the electroplating chamber, reducing the risk of dirt and bright spots during the electroplating process of the glass, and improving the yield of the glass in the electroplating process section.

[0021] In the processing of the glass coating target structure, first, the copper back plate 100, the target body 200 and the heat-conducting steel strip 300 are fixed together. Laser welding or ultrasonic welding can be used to fix the three together, or other fixing methods can be used to achieve the fixed connection of the three. After the copper back plate 100, the target body 200 and the heat-conducting steel strip 300 are fixed together, a target blank is formed, and then the target blank is placed in a sandblasting jig. The sandblasting jig is composed of a base, a cover plate and a connecting piece. The base has a receiving groove that can accommodate the glass coating target structure. The base and the cover plate are made of aluminum alloy material. The cover plate corresponds to the groove 210 on the glass coating target structure, and a through hole is provided on the cover plate for the heat-conducting steel strip 300. One end of the connecting piece is fixed to the base, and the other end is fixed to the cover plate to achieve the connection of the cover plate and the base. Preferably, the connecting piece can be a chain or a flexible rope. After the target blank is placed in the receiving groove of the base, the cover plate is placed at the groove 210 of the target blank to protect the sputtering area of the target blank and prevent the sandblasting sand particles from damaging the sputtering area of the target blank. Then the sandblasting jig with the target blank is placed in a sandblasting machine for sandblasting treatment. The front surface of the target blank is roughened under the cutting action of the sandblasting sand particles, so that the front surface of the target blank forms a first annular sandblasting layer 110, a second annular sandblasting layer 220 and a strip-shaped sandblasting layer 310 to obtain a glass coating target structure, thereby increasing the adsorption force and the bonding force of the non-sputtering area on the front surface of the glass coating target structure and the electroplated film layer.

[0022] In this embodiment, white jade sand particles with a particle size of 15um are used as sandblasting sand particles during sandblasting of the target blank. The sandblasting pressure during sandblasting operation is 50-100Mpa, the sandblasting distance is 10-50mm, the sandblasting time is 4-5min, and the sandblasting angle is 70°-80°. By setting the above sandblasting parameters, the problem of sand particle embedding on the surface of the glass coating target structure caused by excessive sandblasting pressure can be avoided to ensure the coating performance of the surface of the glass coating target structure. The problem of insufficient kinetic energy of sand particles impacting the target structure caused by excessive sandblasting distance can be avoided to reduce the impact of sand particles on the target structure. The problem of uneven sand surface caused by too short sandblasting time can be avoided. The problem of excessive sandblasting caused by too long sandblasting time, which causes a large amount of sand particles to remain on the surface of the target structure and is not easy to clean, can be avoided. The problem of roughening of the surface of the target structure caused by cutting deformation being changed to extrusion deformation due to excessive particle size of the sand particles can also be avoided, thereby reducing the bonding strength between the surface of the target structure and the SiO2 film layer.

[0023] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined in any manner. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described, but as long as the combinations of the technical features do not exist, they should be considered within the scope of the present disclosure.

[0024] The above-described embodiments only express several implementation manners of the utility model, the description is more specific and detailed, but can not therefore be understood as the limitation of the utility model patent range. It should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled person in the art, without departing from the utility model concept, several modifications and improvements can be made, which belong to the protection range of the utility model.
