Film-thickness Error Analysis of Optical Disk Systems

It is difficult to exactly control the film thickness of optical disk multilayer in the actual coating process. The thickness error becomes a main factor affecting the optical characters of the film system. The thickness error′s sensitivity factor of dielectric optical multilayer is derived from the optical matrix in this paper. The effect of the thickness error on the reflectivity or reflectivity contrast of the optical disk multilayer is analyzed with a numerical calculation. The sensitivities to thickness error for different layers or in different film-thickness ranges are compared and discussed. A sketchy method defining allowable thickness error is given. Some experimental results verify the applicability of our theoretical analysis.

粒子群优化算法是一种新的演化计算技术,与遗传算法相比,粒子群优化算法具有易于实现,控制参量少等优点,且在大多数的情况下,可快速收敛于最优解.为了获得更优的膜系结构,本文提出了一种利用粒子群优化算法进行膜系设计的方法,并以增透膜、高反膜及分光膜为优化设计实例验证该方法的可行性.在这些实例中,以理论反射率和实际反射率的误差平方和为评价函数.结果表明,将粒子群优化算法用于膜系设计是有效的,在相同设计条件下,应用粒子群优化算法可以得到比遗传算法更优的膜系结构.     

软X射线Mo/Si多层膜反射率拟合分析

由于多层膜的表界面粗糙度和材料之间的相互扩散等因素，导致多层膜的实际反射率小于理论计算的反射率，因此，多层膜结构参量的确定对镀膜工艺参量的标定具有重要意义。由于描述单个非理想粗糙界面散射的Stearns法适用于软X射线短波段区域，采用它的数学模型来描述软X射线多层膜的粗糙度，利用最小二乘法曲线拟合法对同步辐射测得的Mo／Si多层膜的反射率曲线进行拟合，得到了非常好的拟合结果，从而确定了多层膜结构参量，同时分析了多层膜周期厚度，厚度比率，界面宽度以及仪器光谱分辨率对多层膜反射特性的影响，这些工作都为镀膜工艺改进提供了一定的理论依据。

Mass transport on adsorbate multilayers studied by surface plasmon polariton wave excitation

We excited surface-plasmon polariton waves (SPPW) on Cu(111) by coupling a monochromatic optical beam with a xenon multilayer thickness grating on the metal. The SPPW excitation was detected with an angle-resolved oblique-incidence reflectivity difference technique (OI-RD). The amplitude of the resonance OI-RD signal was a quadratic function of the grating modulation depth. By monitoring the decay of the resonance OI-RD signal as a function of time and temperature, we were able to study the mass transport of xenon that plays a key role in the annealing of a “rough” Xe multilayer crystalline film.

A simple solution to systematic errors in density determination by X-ray reflectivity: The XRR-density evaluation (XRR-DE) method

X-ray reflectivity (XRR) is a non-destructive, accurate and fast technique for evaluating film density. Indeed, sample-goniometer alignment is a critical experimental factor and the overriding error source in XRR density determination. With commercial single-wavelength X-ray reflectometers, alignment is difficult to control and strongly depends on the operator. In the present work, the contribution of misalignment on density evaluation error is discussed, and a novel procedure (named XRR-density evaluation or XRR-DE method) to minimize the problem will be presented. The method allows to overcome the alignment step through the extrapolation of the correct density value from appropriate non-specular XRR data sets. This procedure is operator independent and suitable for commercial single-wavelength X-ray reflectometers. To test the XRR-DE method, single crystals of TiO₂ and SrTiO₃ were used. In both cases the determined densities differed from the nominal ones less than 5.5%. Thus, the XRR-DE method can be successfully applied to evaluate the density of thin films for which only optical reflectivity is today used. The advantage is that this method can be considered thickness independent.

月基极紫外相机用于月球表面对地球等离子体层辐射出的30.4 nm谱线进行成像观测,多层膜反射镜是月基极紫外相机的重要光学元件。根据月基极紫外相机技术参数,选择了B₄C/Mg,B₄C/Mg₂Si,B₄C/Al,B₄C/Si,Mo/Si等材料,对其周期厚度、材料比例、周期数等参数进行优化。计算了以上材料组合在30.4 nm的反射率曲线。考虑到月球环境的特殊性和材料的物理化学性质,从中选择出Mo/Si和B₄C/Si两种组合,利用磁控溅射进行镀制。Mo/Si和B₄C/Si多层膜在30.4 nm反射率分别达到15.3%和22.8%。     

多层膜优化设计方法

传统多层膜设计所用的全局寻优法的速度非常慢，有时还很难得到理想的膜系。根据Frensnel反射系数公式计算多层膜的反射率，利用单纯形法对软X射线和X射线波段多层膜进行调优，可在短时间内优化出最接近目标光学性能的多层膜膜系结构。计算了不同波长软X射线周期性多层膜的最高理论反射率。单纯形调优算法在保证优化结果与随机搜索法优化结果近似相同的基础上，使优化计算速度提高了十倍以上。同时还用单纯形调优法优化设计了X射线超反射镜，得到了非常理想的非周期膜系。     

A design method for dielectric multilayer optical filters

A generalized design method for an optical filter consisting of a dielectric multilayer structure is proposed to get an arbitrary profile of the wavelength dispersion of reflectivity or transmittance. The basic concept of the method lies in the fact that the wavelength dispersion of the reflectivity is approximately determined by taking the inverse Fourier transformation of the refractive index profile of the multilayer structure. Construction of a filter with only three different values of refractive index is described.

Temperature profile of the multilayer structure irradiated by pulsed laser

Two programs are developed to calculate the temperature profile, as well as the reflectance, transmittance and absorption of a given multilayer film structure, in order to better understand the laser energy distribution between the reflectance, transmittance and absorption in each film layer. An inorganic Blu-ray recordable disc (BD-R) structure is used as a practical demonstration of the multilayer structure. The reflectance and absorption of the BD-R structure exhibit opposite trends and oscillate repeatedly with varying lower or upper dielectric layer thickness while the rest of the film thickness remains unchanged. The energy absorption in an absorbed layer depends on the thickness of the dielectric layers, its relative position in the structure and the extinction coefficient of its optical constant. The total absorption ratio of its maximum to minimum can be over 3 when changing the lower dielectric layer thickness of the studied structure. The layer thickness acts as an energy valve to control the energy flow into the multilayer structure. The thermal profile of the multilayer film structure irradiated by a pulsed laser is calculated at different positions in the film layers with time. The calculated temperatures in the recording alloy layer exhibit linear relationship with the applied power level. The effect of the laser duration time on the temperature increase in the recording layer is significant in the first few nanoseconds and becomes saturated if the heat balance is established in the structure. The calculated temperature is consistent with the experimental recording result when the structure is recorded at 4-time BD-R recording speed.     

K9和石英玻璃基片上Au膜真空紫外反射特性研究

采用离子束溅射法,分别在经过不同前期清洗方法处理过的K9及石英玻璃光学基片上,选择不同的镀膜参量,镀制了多种厚度的Au膜。对镀制的Au膜在真空紫外波段较宽波长范围内的反射率进行了连续测量。测试结果表明:辅助离子源的使用方式、Au膜厚度对反射镜的反射率有重大影响。基片材料、镀前基片表面清洗工艺等对反射率也有一定影响。采用镀前离子轰击,可显著提高Au膜反射率及膜与基底的粘合力;获得最高反射率时的最佳膜厚与基片材料、镀膜工艺密切相关。对经过离子清洗的石英基片,膜厚在30 nm左右反射率最高;比较而言,石英基片可获得更高的反射率;辅助离子源的使用还显著影响获得最高反射率时对应的最佳膜厚值,且对K9基片的影响更显著。
