Problems solved by technology

In the case of a rotating cylindrical magnetron, the power delivery is further restricted to the position corresponding to the end of the target tube, which can seriously affect the uniformity of the plasma density and thus the sputtering rate along the target tube
Also, RF sputtering equipment is much more expensive to achieve similar sputtering rates than DC or AC sputtering

Abstract

A target for sputtering comprises SiZrxOy wherein x is higher than 0.02 but not higher than 5, and y is higher than 0.03 but not higher than 2*(1+x), wherein the target has anXRD pattern with silicon 2-theta peak at 28.29 degree + / - 0.3 degree, or a tetragonal phase ZrO2 2-theta peak at 30.05 degree + / - 0.3 degree.The target has a low resistivity, below 1000 ohm.cm, preferably below 100 ohm.cm, more preferably below 10 ohm.cm, even lower than 1 ohm.cm.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of silicon oxide zirconium sputtering targets. More particularly, the present invention relates to electrically conductive silica zirconia sputtering targets, and to methods of making such targets. Background technique [0002] Many applications (eg surface protection, optics, tribology, etc.) require the presence of one or more layers of material covering the substrate, which impart specific and predetermined properties to the surface of the substrate. A typical technique suitable for many types of materials and specific applications is to deposit the material by sputtering. [0003] The technique of material deposition by means of sputtering has been known for decades. Typically, the plasma is generated in a low-pressure chamber in which an inert gas such as argon or a reactive gas such as oxygen or nitrogen is present and is deposited on a so-called "sputter target" containing the material) and the "subs...
