Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of thin film preparation apparatus technology, specifically a fluorinated diamond-like thin film preparation apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] Thin film fabrication equipment is a key device used to manufacture one or more thin films on the surface of a substrate. It is widely used in semiconductor, optics, energy, biomedicine and other fields. Its working principle usually involves physical vapor deposition (such as sputtering and evaporation) or chemical vapor deposition (such as PECVD and ALD). By precisely controlling the gas flow rate, temperature, pressure and energy input, the material is grown layer by layer on the substrate to form a thin film with a specific thickness, composition and function. Such devices integrate a high vacuum system, heating / cooling module, plasma generator and precision control system to ensure the uniformity, adhesion and performance stability of the thin film. It is an indispensable basic tool for modern material preparation and device manufacturing.

[0003] Fluorinated diamond-like carbon (DLC) film fabrication equipment is typically based on plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) or plasma-assisted sputtering technology. Its core lies in introducing fluorine-containing precursors (such as CF4, CHF3, etc.) and carbon source gases. Under the action of radio frequency or microwave plasma, high-energy active particles bombard the substrate surface, promoting the formation and deposition of carbon-fluorine bonds. This equipment is equipped with a high-vacuum chamber, a precise gas ratio and flow control system, a substrate bias adjustment system, and a temperature control system. This ensures that, under specific process parameters (such as low temperature and low pressure, specific power), a composite film is grown on the substrate that combines the hardness and wear resistance of DLC films with the low coefficient of friction, corrosion resistance, and hydrophobic properties due to the introduction of fluorine-containing groups. It is widely used in low-friction coatings, biomedical applications, and special protective fields.

[0004] However, existing fluorinated diamond-like carbon (DLC) film preparation devices, with their traditional fixed connection methods, are difficult to adapt to various process requirements, limiting their application range. Furthermore, they can lead to insecure substrate fixation or inaccurate positioning, resulting in uneven film deposition, thickness variations, defects, and reduced film quality and performance. Additionally, they cannot adapt to substrates of different sizes and shapes or different preparation processes, limiting their application in research and production. To address these issues, a new fluorinated diamond-like carbon (DLC) film preparation device is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0032] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0033] To further understand the contents of this utility model, a detailed description of this utility model will be provided with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5This utility model discloses a fluorinated diamond-like film preparation device, comprising a processing platform 1 and two housings 3. The first processing platform 1 and the two housings 3 can support the required equipment. A connecting plate 9 is fixedly connected between the first nut pairs 6, and the connecting plate 9 is slidably connected to the housings 3. The connecting plate 9 can support and fix the required upper electrode. A brake motor 4 is fixedly connected to the top of one end of the housing 3, and the output end of the brake motor 4 passes through the housing 3 and is fixedly connected to one end of a synchronous pulley 7 on one side. The installed brake motor 4 allows the synchronous pulley 7 on one side to move within the housing. The body 3 rotates, and a fixing plate 12 is provided on the inner wall of the other side of the housing 3. The fixing plate 12 can support the required lower electrode. A pressure pipe 18 is connected and fixed to one side of the other end of the housing 3, and the pressure pipe 18 passes through the fixing plate 12. The pressure pipe 18 can create a vacuum state between the connecting plate 9 and the fixing plate 12. A vacuum pump 19 is provided at one end of the pressure pipe 18, and the vacuum pump 19 is electrically connected to the control panel 10. The vacuum pump 19 can extract the required gas to the outside. The transmission component includes a second servo motor 23. The machine 23 is fixedly connected to one end of the processing platform 1. The worm gear 24 can rotate on the processing platform 1 by the installed second servo motor 23. The inner wall of the third nut assembly 27 is provided with a push rod motor 28, and the push rod motor 28 is electrically connected to the control panel 10. The output end of the push rod motor 28 is fixedly connected to a slider 29, and the slider 29 is slidably connected to the third nut assembly 27. A vacuum suction cup 30 is provided at the bottom of the slider 29. Driven by the installed push rod motor 28, the slider 29 slides on the third nut assembly 27, thereby allowing the vacuum suction cup 30 to move closer to or away from the fixed plate 12. The required substrate can be transported through the linkage of vacuum suction cup 30 and another solenoid valve 14. A bearing plate 2 is fixedly connected to the top side of the processing platform 1. The bearing plate 2 can support and fix the required components and structures. A uniformly distributed air pipe 17 is connected through and fixedly to one end of the box 3. All air pipes 17 are connected through and fixedly to the solenoid valve 14. The required gas can be transported through the multiple air pipes 17. A sealing gasket 11 is provided at the other end of the box 3. The sealing gasket 11 can ensure the sealing of the box 3.

[0035] Reference Figure 3 - Figure 5One end of the housing 3 has a first lead screw 5 that is rotatably connected to both ends of its inner wall. The outer ring of each lead screw 5 is threaded with a first nut assembly 6, which is slidably connected to the housing 3. One end of each lead screw 5 is fixedly connected to a synchronous pulley 7, and a synchronous belt 8 is installed between the pulleys 7. The rotation of one synchronous pulley 7, and the transmission through the synchronous belt 8, causes both lead screws 5 to rotate synchronously on the housing 3, thus allowing the connecting plate 9 to slide stably on the housing 3. This ensures that the change in the sealed space volume during adjustment is precise and stable. One end of the housing 3 has a control panel 10, which is electrically connected to the brake motor 4. One end of the top of the fixing plate 12 has a pressure sensor 15, which is connected to the control panel 10. Electrically connected, the top of the fixed plate 12 is provided with an adjustment component, and one end of the processing platform 1 is provided with a transmission component. The adjustment component includes a gas sensor 16, which is located on the top side of the fixed plate 12 and electrically connected to the control panel 10. A through-tube 13 is connected through and fixed to the bottom of the fixed plate 12. A solenoid valve 14 is provided on the outer wall of the through-tube 13 and electrically connected to the control panel 10. Through the linkage between the gas sensor 16 and the pressure sensor 15, the required signal is transmitted to the control panel 10 to control the solenoid valve 14 and drive the vacuum pump 19. This allows for automatic completion of operations such as adjusting the volume of the sealed space, fixing the substrate, and releasing gas, greatly improving production efficiency and ease of operation.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3The output end of the second servo motor 23 passes through the processing platform 1 and is fixedly connected to a worm gear 24, which is rotatably connected to the processing platform 1. A third lead screw 25 passes through and is rotatably connected to the top center of the processing platform 1. One end of the third lead screw 25 is fixedly connected to a worm wheel 26, which meshes with the worm gear 24. The outer ring of the third lead screw 25 is threaded with a third nut assembly 27, which is slidably connected to the processing platform 1. By rotating the worm gear 24, the worm wheel 26 drives the third lead screw 25 to rotate on the processing platform 1, thereby causing the third nut assembly 27 to move the required substrate. This avoids the risk of accidental movement of the housing 3 after loading, and the stable formation of the sealed environment also reduces... To mitigate safety hazards such as gas leaks and ensure the safety of operators and equipment, a rack 22 is provided on one side of the third nut assembly 27. A second lead screw 31 is rotatably connected through and to the top of the support plate 2. A gear 21 is fixedly connected through and to one end of the second lead screw 31, and the gear 21 meshes with the rack 22. A second nut assembly 20 is threadedly connected to the outer ring of the second lead screw 31, and the second nut assembly 20 is slidably connected to the support plate 2. The second nut assembly 20 is fixedly connected to the housing 3. By sliding the rack 22, the gear 21 drives the second lead screw 31 to rotate on the support plate 2, thereby allowing the second nut assembly 20 to slide on the support plate 2. This causes the housings 3 to move closer or further apart, thus helping to improve the quality and performance of the membrane.

[0037] Working principle: The worm 24 rotates on the processing platform 1, and through the meshing connection between the worm 24 and the worm wheel 26, the worm wheel 26 drives the third lead screw 25 to rotate on the processing platform 1. This causes the third lead screw 25 to drive the third nut assembly 27 to slide on the processing platform 1, allowing the rack 22 to slide on the support plate 2. Subsequently, through the meshing connection between the rack 22 and the gear 21, the gear 21 drives the second lead screw 31 to rotate on the support plate 2. This causes the second lead screw 31 to drive the second nut assembly 20 to slide on the support plate 2, causing the second nut assembly 20 to move the housing 3 closer together or further apart. This causes the slider 29 to approach the fixed plate 12, releasing the required substrate. Then, through the reset of the third nut assembly 27, the housing 3 move closer together and make contact. The presence of the sealing gasket 11 ensures that the inside of the housing 3 remains sealed. Finally, the control panel 10 drives... The synchronous belt 8 drives the other synchronous pulley 7 to rotate on the housing 3, which in turn drives the first lead screws 5 on both sides to rotate synchronously on the housing 3. This drives the first nut assembly 6 to slide synchronously on the housing 3, allowing the connecting plate 9 to slide on the housing 3. The control panel 10 then drives the vacuum pump 19 to maintain a vacuum between the connecting plate 9 and the fixing plate 12. The pressure sensor 15 detects and ensures the stability of the vacuum environment. The solenoid valve 14 is then controlled to fix the required substrate and control the required gas to release it between the connecting plate 9 and the fixing plate 12. The gas sensor 16 detects and analyzes the gas. Finally, the upper electrode at the bottom of the connecting plate 9 and the lower electrode at the top of the fixing plate 12 are used to prepare the required thin film.
