Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) sputtering technology is a key process widely used in surface coating and thin film preparation, and its core principle involves particle collision and deposition process at microscale. However, for beginners, the specific process of sputtering is abstract and difficult to understand. Traditional teaching methods usually rely on video or two-dimensional image display, which cannot fully demonstrate the details and dynamic characteristics of the sputtering process. The limitations of this expression method make it difficult for learners to intuitively understand the whole picture of sputtering principle, and the learning efficiency is affected.

[0003] Currently, the learning and understanding of PVD sputtering process mainly rely on traditional teaching methods, such as reading book content, watching video animation and teacher's oral explanation. However, these methods have certain limitations. Static graphics in books cannot fully demonstrate the dynamic details of the sputtering process, and video animation can provide certain intuitive feeling, but still lack the real operation experience combined with actual equipment. For learners who have not actually touched PVD sputtering equipment, this learning method is difficult to deeply understand the complex microphenomenon involved in the process and the specific operation principle of the equipment.

[0004] In particular, PVD sputtering involves ion interaction with target material, sputtering particle motion path in space and uniformity in deposition process, etc. These microphenomenon are difficult to understand intuitively through two-dimensional plane demonstration or theoretical description.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0033] The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0034] In the prior art, in order to demonstrate the PVD sputtering principle, only one of the PVD sputtering simulation and video demonstration can be used, and the demonstration effect is poor, and the PVD sputtering principle cannot be well demonstrated. Under this premise, how to use the PVD sputtering simulation combined with the video demonstration device to achieve better PVD sputtering principle demonstration effect has become an urgent problem in the industry.

[0035] Based on this, the present application provides a solution for PVD sputtering principle demonstration: the solution demonstrates the PVD sputtering principle in a virtual-real combined manner.

[0036] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present application provides a virtual-real combined PVD sputtering principle demonstration device for directly demonstrating the PVD sputtering principle, which comprises a PVD sputtering simulation module and a projection module.

The wafer disc 2 is placed on the rotating disc 3 to simulate the target material in the sputtering process.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, the rotating disc 3 is fixed with the sputtering cavity 1 through the rotating disc rudder machine fixing part 4 and is connected with the motor for rotating the wafer disc 2; the ball screw sleeve kit 10 is installed on the inner wall of the sputtering cavity 1 and drives the sputtering target moving fixing part 6 to move up and down to drive the sputtering target 7 to move up and down; the sputtering target moving fixing part 6 is fixed with the inner wall of the sputtering cavity 1 through the ball screw sleeve kit 10; the ball screw sleeve kit 10 drives the sputtering target moving fixing part 6 to move downward, thereby driving the sputtering target 7, the simulated ion emitter 8 and the sputtering target baffle 9 to move downward; the sputtering target 7 is fixed on the lower end surface of the sputtering target fixing part 5, and the simulated ion emitter 8 is arranged in the sputtering target 7 for simulating the ion emission effect; the sputtering target baffle 9 is connected with the sputtering target 7 through the rotating shaft and is used for opening when the sputtering target 7 works and closing to protect the target material when it is static.

[0038] In the present scheme, the rotating disc 3 is fixed with the sputtering cavity 1 through the rotating disc rudder machine fixing part 4 and is driven to rotate through the motor, so as to realize the precise control of the wafer disc 2 and ensure the stable rotation of the wafer disc 2 in the sputtering process, thereby ensuring the consistency and uniformity of the sputtering process; the cooperation of the ball screw sleeve kit 10 and the sputtering target moving fixing part 6 can realize the precise up and down movement of the sputtering target 7.
