FIG. 1 shows a structural diagram of the device; in fig. 2 - the described device in section.
A device for measuring the thickness of optically thin layers contains a radiation source 1, a radiation interrupting unit 2 made in the form of a cylindrical drum with grooves driven by a quartz-stabilized engine, a splitter 3 consisting of a half-transparent mirror at an angle of 45 to the axis measuring beam, and a vacuum chamber 4 having an evaporator 5, a device for interrupting the spraying process, consisting of a barn 6 with a drive 7, a sample holder 8, a reference sample, for example glass 9, and a magazine 1 About reference glasses with a control unit (not).
The radiation source 1, the radiation interruption unit 2 and the beam splitter 3 are installed along the axis passing through the center of the translucent window 11, which is made in the wall 12 of the vacuum chamber 4,
In the measuring branch of the splitter 3, the monochromator 13 is placed with the control unit, implemented as a stepper motor 14 and the digital control unit 15, the radiation receiver 16 and the amplifier 17, and the amplifier of the splitter 3 also has a radiator receiver 16 and a amplifier 17 in the outgoing branch of the splitter 3 also installed a receiver and a header 17 and the amplifier 17. The outputs of the amplifiers 17 and 19 are connected to the input of the 2 O comparison unit, which can output both the difference and the ratio - the output of both amplifiers; The output of the comparator unit is connected to a photosensitive photometric pin 21, which receives a control signal from trigger 22. The output of the photosensitive photometric pin 21 is connected to the inputs of the differentiating element 23 and comparator 24. The second input of the differentiating element
23 is connected to the ajieMeHTOM 25 encoding. A null detector 26 is connected to the output of the differentiating element 23. The null detector 26 comparator 24 is connected to the inputs of the logic circuit 27 by its outputs, and the output of the latter is connected to the input of the device, which provides the spraying interruption process.
The radiation source 1, the radiation interruption unit 2, the beam splitter 3 and the radiation receivers 16, 18 are located in the cruciform body 28, the beam splitter 3 is installed at the intersection of the body shoulders, and the arm opposite to the radiation source 1 is connected using a clamp 29 and a cap nut 30 with a vacuum chamber 4. Between the radiation source 1 and the radiation interrupting unit 2, there is an optical diaphragm 31, which by means of adjustment screws (not shown) is movable radially relative to the housing 28. The connection between the receivers The radiation chambers 16, 18 and the housing are made with the help of pluggers 32, 33.
The operation of the device is as follows.
During the spraying process, the beam from source 1 passes through radiation interrupting unit 2 and enters beam splitter 3. Thanks to beam splitter 3, part of the measuring beam at an angle of 9O is deflected and hits the reference receiver 18, and part of the measuring beam passing through the beam splitter through window 11 and falls on the glass 9, located on the optical axis of the system. From the measurement object, a part of the measuring beam is reflected and deflected along the optical axis back to the beam splitter 3. From the beam splitter, the part of the measuring beam coming from the vacuum chamber also at an angle of 90 deviates to the measuring receiver
16, the passage of this monochromator 13, by means of which the measuring receiver is sensitized for a specific wavelength
The electrical signal from measuring cell 16 is supplied to the amplifier.
17, and the signal, excited by the reference receiver, to the compensation amplifier 19 and parallel to this, to the trigger 22, the output signal of the comparator
2O, which is the difference between the ratio of the output signals of the amplifiers 17, 19, goes to the phase-sensitive photometric force 1, 21, which
receives its control signal relative to the phase value from trigger 22. The output of photometric amplifier 21 is continuous and is fed from one side to differentiating element 23, to which a digital signal from encoding element 25 is fed through the second input to change the time constant of differentiating element and on the other hand, to the comparator 24, in which the actual intensity value of the photometric amplifier 21 is compared with the analog value given through the second input performance Once
the actual value reaches a predetermined, short-duration pulse sent to logic circuit 27, which also contains the output signals of the null detector 26. The null detector 26 at the output gives a signal when the differentiated signal at the output of the element 23 passes through the zero level. Depending on the task of sputtering, the logic circuit 27 can be implemented both in the form of AND and in the form of the OR element. Thus, if it is required that the film thickness lies between zero and 1/4 of the wavelength of the measurement light used, the clumping off follows the first zero crossing on the differentiating element 23. At the same time, the null indicator is not processed and the comparator turns off only valid and given value is consistent. However, if the shutdown at a certain film thickness occurs between any zero passes, the null indicator and comparator are activated and the logic circuit starts to work in OR mode. The consequence of this is the fact that the signal can be transmitted by transit only when the selected number of transitions through zero has been reached, after which a new agreement of the actual and specified intensity values occurs.
Thus, the described device allows controlling the spraying process and measuring the amount of thin films with a high degree of accuracy during the long bleaching process, as well as obtaining good reproducibility to achieve results in multilayer coatings.
