The preparation of the high insulativity of Al2 O 3 film was one of key technologies of film thermocouple transient temperature sensor.The flaws such as pinhole always exist on the Al2 O 3 film prepared by direct cur-rent (DC)pulsed magnetron sputtering.The Al2 O 3 insulating film for film thermocouple transient temperature testing sensor was prepared by DC pulsed magnetron sputtering adding RF bias.The measurements for the thickness,insulativity,surface morphology and membrane adhesion of the Al2 O 3 film are operated through the steps,megger,scanning electron microscopy and scratch tester.The results show that the film is uniform,and the surface was smooth.The thickness of Al2 O 3 film prepared with 9 h by DC pulsed magnetron sputtering adding RF bias was 2.4 μm.The insulation was 2.6 × 10 9 Ω.The atom ratio of n (Al)/n (O)was 2 ∶3 for all samples.The binding force with the metal substrate was 12 N.This article provides a kind of simple and effec-tive method to preparate Al2 O 3 films,presenting high density,high insulation performance,which provides the technical support for the preparation of the transient temperature sensor.
