Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of target material manufacturing, and relates to an aluminum-silicon target material and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] The magnetron sputtering technology is a commonly used method for depositing thin films in integrated circuit manufacturing, and the source material consumed is called a target material. The mechanism of sputtering is momentum transfer, that is, the momentum of incident ions is transferred to the atoms on the target surface, so that the atoms are shot out of the bond energy. The largest amount of sputtering metal target material is ultra-high purity aluminum and ultra-high purity alloy. At present, aluminum alloy thin films and target materials are mainly applied in the following five fields: ① semiconductor integrated circuit (IC) electrode wiring film; ② optical recording medium reflective film; ③ thin film transistor type liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) electrode wiring film; ④ solid-state imaging device and liquid crystal display light shielding film; and ⑤ functional electronic component wiring film. The target material product has strict requirements for the internal organizational structure, which seriously affects the sputtering rate and the uniformity of the deposited thin film. The smaller the target material grain is, the more uniform the organization is, the more consistent the orientation is, and the better the performance of the sputtered thin film is.

[0003] CN 116334551A discloses a high-aluminum aluminum-titanium target and a preparation method thereof. The atomic percentage of aluminum in the target material is greater than 50%, and the target material is composed of elemental phases of Al and Ti without alloy phases. The target material has extremely high strength or toughness and is easy to process into a complex shape without cracking or breaking during the processing. The target material is mainly applied to AlTiN coating film plating and decorative film plating of cutters. The main processes of the preparation of the target material include powder mixing, bagging and degassing, hot isostatic pressing, machining, etc.

[0004] CN 115341161A provides a copper-aluminum alloy target material, a preparation method and application thereof. The copper-aluminum target blank is sequentially subjected to preheating, three-way forging, heat treatment, cold pressing, cold rolling and flattening to obtain a copper-aluminum alloy target material. The three-way forging includes first forging in the X-axis direction, second forging in the Y-axis direction and third forging in the Z-axis direction. Any two of the X-axis direction, the Y-axis direction and the Z-axis direction are perpendicular to each other. The copper-aluminum alloy target material and the preparation method thereof can prepare a high-strength copper-aluminum target material, improve the uniformity of the film plating, have high strength under a high sputtering rate of ≥5·10 -3 g / min, and the preparation method is simple to operate.

[0005] However, the existing aluminum target manufacturing technology has the problem of uneven internal organization, which causes defects on the surface of the thin film after sputtering film plating, affecting the quality and yield. How to optimize the internal organizational structure of the target material to ensure the quality of the product is a technical problem to be solved. SUMMARY

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the application provides an aluminum-silicon target material and a preparation method and application thereof, designs a preparation process of the aluminum-silicon target material, controls the crystal direction of the internal structure of the target material through three heat treatments and two rolling processes in the gap, optimizes the internal structure, and thus ensures the film quality and yield.

[0007] To achieve the above purpose, the application adopts the following technical solutions.

[0008] In the first aspect, the application provides a preparation method of an aluminum-silicon target material, which comprises the following steps:

[0009] (1) preheating and forging the aluminum-silicon target blank to obtain a hot-forged target blank;

[0010] (2) sequentially performing first heat treatment, second heat treatment and third heat treatment on the obtained hot-forged target blank to obtain a rolled target blank;

[0011] The first heat treatment and the second heat treatment further comprise first pressing, and the second heat treatment and the third heat treatment further comprise second pressing.

[0012] (3) performing machine tool processing on the obtained rolled target blank to obtain the aluminum-silicon target material.

[0013] The application designs a preparation process of an aluminum-silicon target material, controls the crystal direction of the internal structure of the target material through three heat treatments and two rolling processes in the gap, optimizes the internal structure, and thus ensures the film quality and yield.

[0014] Preferably, the preheating temperature in step (1) is 100-200℃, for example, it can be 100℃, 120℃, 140℃, 160℃, 180℃ or 200℃, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0015] Preferably, the holding time of the preheating in step (1) is 10-30min, for example, it can be 10min, 15min, 20min, 25min or 30min, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0016] Preferably, the forging in step (1) is repeated for 1-2 times.

[0017] Preferably, the forging ratio of the forging in step (1) is 1.5-2.5, for example, it can be 1.5, 1.8, 2, 2.2 or 2.5, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0018] Preferably, the temperature of the first heat treatment in step (2) is 100-200℃, for example, it can be 100℃, 120℃, 140℃, 160℃, 180℃ or 200℃, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0019] Preferably, the temperature of the first heat treatment in step (2) is 100-200℃, for example, it can be 100℃, 120℃, 140℃, 160℃, 180℃ or 200℃, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0020] When the temperature is too high, the grain is coarse, and the product performance is reduced; when the temperature is too low, the annealing is not complete, and cracking is prone to occur during subsequent processing.

[0021] Preferably, the temperature of the first heat treatment in step (2) is 100-200℃, for example, it can be 100℃, 120℃, 140℃, 160℃, 180℃ or 200℃, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0022] Preferably, the temperature of the first heat treatment in step (2) is 100-200℃, for example, it can be 100℃, 120℃, 140℃, 160℃, 180℃ or 200℃, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0023] Preferably, the temperature of the first heat treatment in step (2) is 100-200℃, for example, it can be 100℃, 120℃, 140℃, 160℃, 180℃ or 200℃, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0024] Preferably, the temperature of the first heat treatment in step (2) is 100-200℃, for example, it can be 100℃, 120℃, 140℃, 160℃, 180℃ or 200℃, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0025] When the temperature is too high, part of the deformation texture is converted to R texture, and the proportion of (200) surface decreases; when the temperature is too low, the formed cubic texture has few primary recrystallization nuclei, and the proportion of (200) surface decreases.

[0026] Preferably, the temperature of the first heat treatment in step (2) is 100-200℃, for example, it can be 100℃, 120℃, 140℃, 160℃, 180℃ or 200℃, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0027] Preferably, the temperature of the first heat treatment in step (2) is 100-200℃, for example, it can be 100℃, 120℃, 140℃, 160℃, 180℃ or 200℃, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0028] Preferably, the temperature of the third heat treatment in step (2) is 300-320°C, for example, it can be 300°C, 305°C, 310°C, 315°C or 320°C, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0029] When the temperature is too high, the energy consumption increases, the (200) surface ratio improvement effect is not obvious, and the grain is easy to be coarse, and the product performance decreases. When the temperature is too low, the internal residual deformation texture is decreased, and the (200) surface ratio is decreased.

[0030] Preferably, the heating rate of the third heat treatment in step (2) is 4-6°C / min, for example, it can be 4°C / min, 4.5°C / min, 5°C / min, 5.5°C / min or 6°C / min, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0031] Preferably, the holding time of the third heat treatment in step (2) is 30-60 min, for example, it can be 30 min, 35 min, 40 min, 50 min or 60 min, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0032] Preferably, the cooling method after the third heat treatment in step (2) is water cooling.

[0033] Preferably, the total deformation amount of the first pressing in step (2) is 60-90%, for example, it can be 60%, 65%, 70%, 80% or 90%, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0034] When the deformation amount is too high, the recrystallization nucleation is too much, part of the deformation texture is converted into recrystallization R texture, and the (200) surface ratio is reduced. When the deformation amount is too low, the generated primary cubic orientation texture is less, and the (200) surface ratio is reduced.

[0035] Preferably, the down pressure of each pass of the first pressing in step (2) is 5-10 mm, for example, it can be 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 9 mm or 10 mm, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0036] Preferably, the total deformation amount of the second pressing in step (2) is 20-40%, for example, it can be 20%, 25%, 30%, 35% or 40%, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in the value range are also applicable.

[0037] When the deformation is too high, there are fewer cubic orientation nuclei in the non-uniform deformation shear band, which weakens the cubic texture and reduces the proportion of the (200) plane; when the deformation is too low, the deformation distortion is small, which easily leads to coarse grains.

[0038] Preferably, in step (2), the pressing depth per pass of the second pressing is 5-10 mm, for example, it can be 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 9 mm or 10 mm, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values ​​within the range are also applicable. In a second aspect, the present invention provides an aluminum-silicon target material, which is obtained by the preparation method described in the first aspect.

[0039] Preferably, the grain size of the aluminum-silicon target is 200~250μm, for example, it can be 200μm, 210μm, 220μm, 230μm, 240μm or 250μm, but is not limited to the listed values. Other unlisted values ​​within the range are also applicable.

[0040] Preferably, the proportion of the aluminum-silicon target material with the grain orientation (200) plane is >60%, for example, it can be 62%, 65%, 70%, 80% or 90%, but is not limited to the listed values. Other unlisted values ​​within the range are also applicable.

[0041] Preferably, the mass percentage of silicon in the aluminum-silicon target is 20-40 ppm, for example, it can be 20 ppm, 25 ppm, 30 ppm, 35 ppm or 40 ppm, but is not limited to the listed values. Other unlisted values ​​within the range are also applicable.

[0042] This invention improves the process steps to prepare an aluminum-silicon target with fine grains (200~250μm) and predominant crystal orientation (>60%).

[0043] Thirdly, the present invention provides an application of the aluminum-silicon sputtering target according to the second aspect, wherein the aluminum-silicon sputtering target is used in any one of integrated circuits, optical recording medium reflective films, liquid crystal displays, solid-state imaging devices, or wiring films for functional electronic components.
