Title:
SPUTTERING DEVICE AND TREATMENT OF DEPOSIT ON COLLIMATOR
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3905584
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a means for effectively preventing a deposit on the lower face of a collimator in a sputtering device from being stripped off.
SOLUTION: This sputtering device is provided with a vacuum chamber, a pedestal 70 supporting a wafer, a target 60, means 54 and 55 for supplying a gas such as Ar, a collimator 62 arranged between the target 60 and pedestal 70 and a Ti shutter disk S capable of being arranged between the pedestal 70 and collimator 62 and maintained at a negative potential with respect to the collimator 62. Under such a constitution, when the gaseous Ar between the collimator 62 and shutter disk S is converted to plasma, a high-energy Ti particle is emitted from the shutter disk S and collided with the lower face of the collimator 62. Consequently, such a deposit as TiN film on the lower face of the collimator 62 is effectively sealed, and the deposit is not stripped off.
