[0006] U.S. Patent Publication No. US 2003 / 0129407 discloses sputtering titanium (Ti) or chromium (Cr) on the substrate to improve the adhesion between the graphite film on the substrate surface and the substrate. However, this patent only discloses Properties of Thin Film Materials
[0007] In U.S. Patent No. US6,555,250, it was disclosed in detail that nickel (Ni) electroplating was carried out on the surface of the metal target, and that the nickel and the components in the target were diffused by means of vacuum annealing, and then carried out with the alloy backplane. Diffusion bonding in the latter stage has a strong bonding degree. However, the entire process of this method is carried out at high temperature, and high pressure treatment is required in the latter stage of diffusion bonding. All of the above are very likely to cause target crystallization abnormal growth of grains

Abstract

The invention provides a seaming method for a ceramic sputtering target, which comprises the following steps: providing a back board and forming a soft solder layer with lower melting point solder on the surface of the back board; providing a ceramic sputtering target, and forming an interface layer on the surface by filming treatment of pure chromium or chromium alloy; carrying out annealing treatment on the ceramic sputtering target with the interface layer; and carrying out soft soldering joint on the solder layer of the back board and the interface layer of the target. In the invention, after the chromium or chromium alloy interface layer is formed on the ceramic sputtering target, and annealing treatment is carried out on the interface layer, excellent joint adhesive capacity is formed between the interface layer and the soft solder layer, thus the ceramic sputtering target and the back board are jointed more tightly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a sputtering target component and its welding method, in particular to a ceramic sputtering target component and its soldering method. Background technique [0002] Carbon, silicon or ceramic targets are mostly used to form transparent conductive oxides in liquid crystal displays or touch panels, such as indium tin oxide (ITO) targets or DLC graphite coatings (diamond-like carbon) in hard disks. coating). At present, the welding of such targets mostly adopts the method of soft soldering. [0003] In the general industry, when performing the welding process of carbon, silicon or ceramic sputtering targets, the most commonly used method is solder bonding with the copper backplane, and the solder used is indium (In) with a low melting point. or tin (Sn) material. The advantage of the soldering bonding method is that the processing temperature is low (usually less than 250°C), and it will not cause the subsequent abnormal grain ...
