Problems solved by technology

In order to increase the film formation speed, it is easiest to increase the sputtering power, but if the sputtering power is increased, sputtering defects such as splashing (fine molten particles) will occur, and defects will occur on the wiring film, etc., which will lead to FPD yields. And disadvantages such as reduced operating performance

Embodiment 1

[0108] Using an Al-Ni-Cu-La alloy, under various conditions shown in Table 1 and Table 2, an Al-based alloy preform (density: about 50 to 60%) was obtained by spray molding.

[0109] (Injection molding conditions)

[0110] Melting mixing degree: 800~1100℃ (see Table 1, Table 2)

[0111] Gas / metal ratio: 5~8Nm 3 / kg (see Table 1, Table 2)

[0112] Spray distance: 800 ~ 1300mm (see Table 1, Table 2)

[0113] Aerosolizer outlet angle α (see figure 2 ): 7°

[0114] Collector Angle β: 35°

[0115] The preform obtained as described above was enclosed in a container for degassing, and the entire container was subjected to hot isostatic pressing (HIP) to obtain a dense body of Al—Ni—Cu—La alloy. HIP treatment was carried out under the conditions of HIP temperature of 550° C., HIP pressure of 85 MPa, and HIP time of 2 hours.

[0116] Then, the obtained dense body is forged to form a plate-shaped metal material, and then rolled so that the thickness of the plate becomes approxim...

Embodiment 2

[0147] Next, use the Al-Co-Ge-La alloy (Table 3, Table 4), use the same method and conditions as in Example 1 (excluding the conditions shown in Table 3, Table 4) to produce Al-based alloy sputtering Target (sample) (No. 34-66). The Vickers hardness (HV) of the obtained Al-based alloy sputtering target was measured, and a sputtering test was performed, thereby evaluating the occurrence of initial spattering.

[0148]

[0149]

[0150] In table 3, table 4, Co (at %) represents the content (at %) of Co element, Ge (at %) represents the content (at %) of Ge element, La (at %) represents the content (at %) of La element ). From Table 3 and Table 4, the following contents can be known. Numbers 34~43, 45~47, 50~52, 54~56, 58~60, 63~65 are due to proper control of the Vickers hardness (HV) of the Al-Co-Ge-La alloy sputtering target, so the initial The number of splashes is less than 8 / cm 2 , which has the effect of reducing the initial splash.

[0151] On the other hand, t...

Embodiment 3

[0161] Next, using Al-Ni-Ge-Nd alloys (Table 5, Table 6), through the same method and conditions as in Example 1 (excluding the conditions shown in Table 5, Table 6), Al-based alloys were produced Sputtering target (sample) (No. 67-99). The Vickers hardness (HV) of the obtained Al-based alloy sputtering target was measured, and further a sputtering test was performed to evaluate the occurrence of initial spattering.

[0162]

[0163]

[0164] In Table 5 and Table 6, Ni (at %) represents the content (at %) of Ni element, Ge (at %) represents the content (at %) of Ge element, Nd (at %) represents the content (at %) of Nd element ). From Table 5 and Table 6, we can know the following contents. Numbers 67~76, 78~80, 83~85, 87~89, 91~93, 96~98 due to proper control of the Vickers hardness (HV) of the Al-Ni-Ge-Nd alloy sputtering target, the initial splash The occurrence number is less than 8 / cm 2 , which has the effect of reducing the initial splash.

[0165] On the othe...
