Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a coating device for coating a substrate made of a substrate material with at least one material layer made of a layer material, comprising a process chamber with a process volume for receiving a substrate holder for the stationary arrangement of the substrate in the process volume, the process chamber having at least one chamber wall essentially completely enclosing the process volume, a gas system fluidly communicating with the process volume for generating a coating atmosphere in the process volume, a source holder arranged in the process volume with at least one source material, the source material preferably accommodated in a source crucible, furthermore the source holder and the Substrate holders are arranged relative to one another in such a way that thermally evaporated and / or sublimed source material can be deposited on the substrate for at least partial formation of the layer material than the material layer.
  • the present invention also relates to a process chamber for a coating device for coating a substrate made of a substrate material with at least one material layer made of a layer material. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method for coating a substrate made of a substrate material with at least one material layer made of a layer material in a coating device. Another aspect of the invention relates to a substrate coated with at least one material layer, comprising the substrate made of substrate material, which is coated with at least one material layer made of a layer material. Coating a substrate made of a substrate material with a material layer made of a layer material is basically known in the prior art. For example, such coating processes can be used in the manufacture of integrated circuits. Other electrical or electronic components, such as solar cells, can also be carried out in coating devices using such coating processes. In addition, other products, for example mirror and / or beam splitters for use in laser technology, can be produced using a coating device or a coating process.
  • a major advantage of the MBE is that high stoichiometric control of the material layer produced and in particular its layer material can be provided.
  • material layers can also be produced in the MBE in which the layer material has a modulated, that is to say, in particular variable, doping.
  • a high level of purity of the material layers produced is also a property of the MBE.
  • one or more source materials are mostly vaporized and / or sublimed thermally by an electric heater and deposited on a substrate. By increasing or reducing the surface area of the source materials used for evaporation and / or sublimation, for example by appropriately selecting a source crucible, a high scalability from small to very large substrate areas can also be provided in the MBE.
  • an electrical heater for the thermal evaporation and / or sublimation of the source material mentioned above also leads to disadvantages for the MBE.
  • a pressure limitation of a maximum of 10 5 mbar, usually even less than 10 6 mbar must be observed.
  • the corrosive gases at higher pressures corrode and fail the electrical elements present in the process volume, in particular elements for heating the source material and / or the substrate.
  • Evaporated and / or sublimated source material is also inevitably deposited on these electrical elements, as a result of which these elements can also be impaired, up to a complete destruction of the corresponding electrical component, for example by a short circuit.

  • pulse durations of 10 ns - 50 ns at a repetition frequency of 1 - 25 per second and energy densities of 10 MW / cm 2 can be provided by the lasers used.
  • the clouds of source material resulting from the explosive evaporation during ablation have on average a high kinetic energy of the particles, the maximum speeds of the explosively evaporated source material particles mostly occurring perpendicular to the source surface. Due to these high speeds, higher pressures in the coating atmosphere in the process volume are possible, in particular up to a range of 1 mbar.
  • the stoichiometry of the growing material layer on the substrate cannot be checked as far as possible, or only to a very limited extent.
  • the stoichiometry of the material layer or the layer material is at least essentially determined by the stoichiometry of the material source used, plus only possible reactions with a process gas of the coating atmosphere.
  • the modulation of a doping as part of the layer material described above in relation to the MBE is not possible.
  • Another disadvantage is that a high laser energy density is necessary for the ablation of the source material by the laser pulses described above.
  • the MBE and the PLD in the state of the art provide two methods, each of which is advantageous for special coating processes.
  • certain desired material layers may require a layer material or a layer material composition, the production of which is neither sufficiently accessible by either of the two methods.
  • many oxides require a corrosive coating atmosphere as the layer material, preferably having molecular oxygen and / or ozone.
  • the highest possible pressure is Coating atmosphere, in particular a pressure of, for example, 10 3 mbar, advantageous.
  • this pressure range is not accessible to the MBE according to the prior art or is only accessible to a very limited extent.

Furthermore, the object is achieved by a process chamber for a coating device with the features of independent claim 16. Furthermore, the object is achieved by a method for coating a substrate with the features of the independent claim 17. Furthermore, the object is achieved by a substrate coated with at least one material layer with the features of the secondary claim 23.
