摘要： We deposited indium-tin-oxide (ITO) films on silicon and quartz substrates by magnetron sputtering technology in pure argon. Using electrostatic quadrupole plasma diagnostic technology, we investigate the effects of discharge power and discharge pressure on the ion flux and energy distribution function of incidence on the substrate surface, with special attention to the production of high-energy negative oxygen ions, and elucidate the mechanism behind its production. At the same time, the structure and properties of ITO films are systematically characterized to understand the potential effects of high energy oxygen ions on the growth of ITO films. Combining with the kinetic property analysis of sputtering damage mechanism of transparent conductive oxide (TCO) thin films, this study provides valuable physical understanding of optimization of TCO thin film deposition process.
