Portable Vacuum Deposition Systems
Precision Gas Phase Polymer Deposition :
Specialty Coating Systems offers three Parylene deposition
system models ranging from
a portable unit for laboratory and process development use to
large production models
for higher volume manufacturing applications.
System
Operation :
SCS Parylene deposition systems are designed for accurate and repeatable
operation by
non-skilled workers. The entire coating process is automatically
controlled via a
programmable logic controller. The coating system operator is tasked with
loading
substrates into the coating chamber, loading the dimer into the vaporizer
and depressing
the process start button. The deposition system alerts the operator when
the process
is completed.
Each
deposition system features an operator’s control panel that displays
critical, factory
pre-programmed process parameters. Process settings are accessible and can
be changed
by qualified personnel when necessary. All three models feature
closed-loop monomer
pressure control. This feature ensures deposition of the polymer film at a
precise rate.
Operating
temperatures and pressures are factory set and continuously monitored. Any
deviation from acceptable limits results in audible and visual alarms.
Automatic process
shutdown is initiated following process fault conditions of sufficient
duration.
A printed
chart of key processing parameters is included as a standard feature Model
PDS-2060.
A communication port is also provided for uploading process data, on the
Model, and this data
can be used to generate statistical process control information.
Deposition
Process :
Parylene is
applied at room temperature with deposition equipment that allows control
of both
coating rate and ultimate thickness. Polymer deposition takes place at the
molecular level as the
chemical, in dimer form, is vaporized under vacuum and heat to a dimeric
gas, then pyrolized to
cleave the dimer to its monomeric form, and finally deposited as a
transparent polymer film.
Coating
thicknesses from 0.10 micron to 76 microns can be applied in a single
operation.
Deposited at a typical rate of 5 microns per hour upon process
equilibrium.
No catalysts or solvents are required.
A cold trap
allows for liquid nitrogen or mechanical chiller cooling to prevent
Parylene from
depositing in the vacuum system.

在高真空狀態下,真空室內殘餘氣體分子的65%到95%以上都是水分子以及水分子與其他氣體分子的結合物,這些水汽分子是典型的最具副作用性的污染氣體。以往常用的方法是,離子清洗和高溫烘烤,但真空系統尤其是擴散泵系統對水蒸氣抽速太低,而用昂貴的低溫泵系統也僅僅吸附和掩埋掉真空室中的一部分水蒸氣分子,高溫烘烤也只是把水分子從基片表面遷移,使基片減少對水蒸氣的吸附,而P-100冷泵是將90%以上的水分子吸附在低溫盤管(Cryocoil)的表面,並能吸附掉真空室內一部分油分子,如果在真空系統水冷阱的上面放置P-100冷阱,不僅能吸抽水汽,而且可以防止擴散泵返油。
P-100快速迴圈水汽冷泵(低溫泵)採用了SCS公司專利的低溫冷凍技術,其工作原理依然是麥斯納(Meissner)吸收原理。使水汽分子在低溫盤管(Cryocoil)的超低溫表面上凝結,從而達到捕集水汽的目的。這種低溫盤管(Cryocoil)直接裝在真空室內,系統不再受接頭、進氣管、閥和擋板等的冷傳導的影響,低溫盤管的安裝不需要高真空閥,可在任何系統中方便地進行。
P-100快速迴圈水汽深冷泵能很快地捕捉真空系統中65%到95%的水蒸汽分子,由於水蒸汽分子的含量迅速降低,使鍍膜機的抽氣能力得到提高,一般抽真空時間可以減少25%到75%,極限真空可提高0.5個數量級。

Model PDS 2010 LABCOTER® 2
The Specialty Coating Systems, Inc., LABCOTER® 2 vacuum
deposition
system is the first portable system designed for
deposition of protective
Parylene conformal coating.
This compact coating unit is suitable for laboratory research
applications,
circuit board repairs, and small production coating
runs on applications such
as printed circuit boards, electronic
sensors, medical components, organic
samples, and many other
substrates.
Parylene is an inert, nonconductive polymer that is applied in a
thin layer
to isolate materials such as electronic circuit boards,
automotive electronic
assemblies, and medical devices from moisture,
contaminants, corrosives,
and acids.
This unit weighs only 170 lb, and operates on 110 VAC 20 amp
service.
Compact size and rolling casters make it easy to position
for operation or
storage. A cold trap allows for several cooling
methods. Standard: manually
dispensed liquid nitrogen. Optional:
Liquid nitrogen with automatic level
control; or mechanical
chiller.
In its computer controlled automatic mode, the system pumps down
to a
preset pressure and the furnace cycles up to operating
temperature. When
proper temperature and pressure values are
established, the vaporizer begins
Parylene sublimation. Operating
levels are continuously monitored and any
deviation results in audio
and visual alarms, with automatic halting of deposition. |

2010可沉積材料為
Parylene C
及
N
型,與矽膠(silicone)、氨基鉀酸酯(urethane)、環氧化物(epoxide)相比具較佳之抗滲透性。目前聚對二甲基苯薄膜的應用除了封裝或防水塗裝外,亦也在微機電系統(MEMS)、燃料電池及有機致電發光二極體(OLED)等領域。
原理
聚對二甲基苯沉積系統原理是將一種二聚物放於真空環境下,經由蒸發、高溫熱解為單分子並重新鍵結後,將聚對二甲基苯以高分子的型態沉積於元件表面。
整個沉積過程,第一階段,將雙對二甲基苯粉末放入蒸發管並啟動機械式真空泵浦使整個沉積系統保持於低真空狀態。並開始加熱到
150°C
以上,促使雙對二甲基苯蒸發為氣態並進入熱解管中。第二階段,熱解管的溫度達
650°C
以上,氣態雙對二甲基苯進入時會被高溫熱解為單分子型態的對二甲基苯。第三階段,高溫的氣態對二甲基苯被噴發於沉積腔體中。因未對腔體加熱,所以腔體溫度在大約
25°C
左右,這使得對二甲基苯開始重新鍵結成為高分子型態的聚對二甲基苯並附著於基材表面上。
