摘要: A shield in a PVD vacuum processing chamber having a configuration which minimizes or eliminates particulates originating from flaking or peeling off from the shield and from arcing between the biased target and surrounding grounded pieces is disclosed. The shield has an "h" cross section with the lower arch of the "h" facing a heater assembly which heats the shield to a temperature approximately equivalent to the temperature of the sputter deposited material. The surface of the shield is polished to promote the release of H.sub.2 O molecules from its surface during the time when a vacuum is initially being pumped. The inside surface of the shield (facing a heater assembly) is treated to have a higher coefficient of surface emissivity than the outer surface to retain more energy and provide more efficient heating. A shadow frame which spans the gap between the edge of the shield and the edge of the substrate being processed is indirectly heated by having a portion of its surface facing a matching portion of the shield, both portions having high emissivities. The shield is supported in the vacuum chamber and the shadow frame on the shield by a series of knife edge support assemblies.

摘要: A target, target backing plate, and cover plate form a target plate assembly. The sputtering target assembly includes an integral cooling passage. A series of grooves are constructed in either the target backing plate or the target backing cooling cover plate, which are then securely bonded to one another. The sputtering target can be a single monolith with a target backing plate or can be securely attached to the target backing plate by one of any number of conventional bonding methods. Tantalum to titanium, titanium to titanium and aluminum to titanium, diffusion bonding can be used.

摘要: A target plate assembly completely covers and seals against a top opening of a sputtering processing chamber. Cooling liquid connections are provided only from the perimeter of the target assembly. When a top vacuum chamber seals the side opposite the pressure chamber, the pressure on both sides of the target assembly is nearly equalized. Large thin target assemblies, such as large flat plates used for flat panel displays can be sputtered effectively and uniformly without adverse sputtering effects due to target deflection or cooling deficiencies. A target, target backing plate, and cover plate form the target plate assembly. The sputtering target assembly includes an integral cooling passage. A series of grooves are constructed in either the target backing plate or the target backing cooling cover plate, which are then securely bonded to one another. The sputtering target can be a single monolith with a target backing plate or can be securely attached to the target backing plate by one of any number of conventional bonding methods. Tantalum to titanium, titanium to titanium and aluminum to titanium, diffusion bonding can be used. The energized target assembly is protected from adjacent components by overlapping insulators to prevent accidents and isolate the target assembly from other components. An electrical connection to the target assembly remains unconnected until a vacuum is produced in the top chamber.
