Problems solved by technology

However, Kr and Xe are extremely expensive and rare gases, making it difficult to popularize and apply them.
In addition, from the research of S.Myers in the United States, it can be concluded that when Ar gas is used as the sputtering gas, the temperature of the substrate needs to exceed 375°C to obtain α-Ta (Surface and Coatings Technology 214 (2013) 38-45). The temperature is still high, which will reduce the mechanical properties of steel materials

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method and application of a magnetron sputtering α-Ta coating in a cavity with a large aspect ratio, and belongs to the technical field of magnetron sputtering coating. In this method, the inner cavity with large aspect ratio is used as the vacuum cavity, and the cylindrical magnetron target is used as the deposition source, which is extended into the inner cavity for deposition, and the diameter difference between the outer wall of the target and the large aspect ratio should be controlled within 50-65mm. During the period, after adjusting the parameters of the magnetron sputtering, the surface of the inner wall of the tube is in the negative glow area of ​​the glow discharge. The large length-to-diameter ratio pipe fittings are heated to between 150 and 250 °C. The power supply used is DC power supply or pulse power supply, the target material is pure tantalum, the working gas is Ar, and the sputtering power density is 2.5W / cm 2 ~10W / cm 2 between. The invention can deposit 100% α-Ta coating, and its binding force and ablation resistance are significantly better than conventional electroplating chrome coatings, so as to replace the chrome plating process used in large quantities at the present stage that seriously pollutes the environment.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of material science, in particular to a preparation method and application of a low-temperature sputtering α-Ta coating in a large aspect ratio inner cavity. Background technique: [0002] As early as the late 1980s, the U.S. military took the lead in using magnetron sputtering α-Ta coating for protection. However, when Ar was used as the sputtering gas, the deposition temperature of the barrel had to reach 400°C to realize the α-Ta coating in the coating. The phase structure is 100% α-Ta (Surface and Coatings Technology 120-121 (1999) 44-52). Below this temperature, the phase structure in the coating is mainly β phase, and the α phase cannot be completely formed. In addition, the U.S. military also proposed to use two inert gases, Kr and Xe, as sputtering gases, and at a deposition temperature of 100-200°C, a 100% α-Ta coating can also be deposited (Surface and Coatings Technology 146-147( 2001) 344-350)....
