Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, the copper indium gallium selenide targets produced are mainly small-sized planar targets or short-section hollow circular targets, which need to be spliced ​​and bound to prepare large-sized targets, that is, the target and the substrate tube are bound by indium welding. Together, indium is expensive, which increases the production cost of the target. Once the binding effect is poor, the target will miss the target. In severe cases, the sputtering equipment will fail or be scrapped
In addition, there is a gap between the binding target node and the node, causing arcing during target sputtering, affecting the coating quality and reducing work efficiency

Abstract

The invention provides a copper / indium / gallium rotating target and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises such steps as ultrasonic cleaning, drying and sand spraying of a basal body stainless steel pipe; preparation of the basal body stainless steel pipe including a nickel / aluminum base layer; preparation of the basal body stainless steel pipe including a copper / indium or copper / gallium translation layer; and preparation of a copper / indium / gallium target on the treated basal body pipe. The preparation method uses D50 copper / indium / gallium powder of 100 microns as a raw material, and performs the ball grinding, the screening and the protective atmosphere cold spraying to prepare the copper / indium / gallium rotating target. The method is simple in process, convenient to operate and suitable for large-scale industrial production; the prepared target has high purity (not lower than 99.99%), great relative density (not lower than 97%), unlimited size, the thickness of 3-15 mm, the length of 4000 mm and the oxygen content not higher than 200 ppm.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a target material and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a copper indium gallium rotating target material and a method for preparing a copper indium gallium rotating target material by controlled atmosphere cold spraying. Background technique [0002] At present, with the warming of the global climate and the deterioration of the environment, people pay more and more attention to clean energy. The solar cell industry has grown rapidly over the past few decades. Due to its high conversion efficiency, copper indium gallium selenide thin film is widely used in solar cells.
