Problems solved by technology

However, during the forging process of the above method, it is easy to press oxides and stains on the surface of the tantalum ingot into the interior of the tantalum ingot, resulting in problems such as uneven internal structure of the target, high impurity content, unstable sputtering speed, and scrapped targets; More critically, forging easily changes the grain orientation of the tantalum ingot, and cannot achieve the preferred orientation of the internal structure of the tantalum ingot, and the proportion of texture components with (111) and (100) textures in the target is low

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of target material preparation, and provides a preferred orientation tantalum target material and a preparation method thereof. The present invention controls the orientation of the internal texture of the tantalum ingot through torsional deformation, and causes tangential deformation in the tantalum ingot along the diameter direction through the twisting, thereby changing the orientation of the internal texture of the tantalum ingot, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling the texture of the material. The invention can improve the uniformity of the target structure, reduce the grain size of the target, and increase the proportion of components with dominant (111) and (100) textures through torsional deformation; and the preparation method provided by the invention does not require the tantalum ingot Forging and rolling can reduce the content of impurities mixed into the target.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of target preparation, in particular to a preferred orientation tantalum target and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Physical vapor deposition technology (PVD) is one of the key technologies for preparing high-end semiconductor chips. It can deposit metal or metal compounds in the form of thin films on the surface of silicon wafers or other substrates to prepare high-end semiconductor chips. Physical vapor deposition is completed by sputtering machines, therefore, sputtering targets are key consumables for preparing high-end chips. [0003] The preparation of most existing tantalum targets is mainly achieved by forging and rolling tantalum ingots, and the grain refinement is achieved by controlling the deformation rate and heat treatment, and finally the finished target is obtained. For example, patents with publication numbers CN103572225A, CN104419901A and CN104451567A all prepa...
