Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of target material preparation and relates to a diffusion welding method of a cobalt target material. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of semiconductor technology, target materials, as important raw materials for sputtering coating, are increasingly widely used. Due to strength and other reasons, target materials usually need to be welded with backing plates to form target material components, which can only be used when they have a certain bonding strength. Therefore, the quality of welding will directly affect the bonding performance between the target material and the backing plate, thereby affecting the effect of sputtering coating.
[0003] At present, the welding methods of semiconductor sputtering targets usually include diffusion welding and brazing welding. Diffusion welding usually makes the welding surface of the target and the back plate fully contact under high temperature and high pressure conditions, causing atomic diffusion to form chemical bonding to achieve welding. It is mainly suitable for welding targets that require high-power sputtering, such as cobalt targets. During high-power sputtering, high-speed particles bombard the target surface, and the target surface temperature will rise sharply. Metals or alloys with good thermal conductivity are required as back plate materials, such as copper or copper alloys. However, diffusion welding between cobalt targets and back plates is difficult, so the welding surface needs to be pre-treated to meet welding requirements.
[0004] At present, there are two pre-treatment methods for diffusion welding of cobalt target materials: the welding surface of the target blank is ground and cleaned, and then a titanium metal layer is plated after cleaning, and then the target blank is welded with a copper back plate, and finally diffusion welded by hot isostatic pressing equipment; or the welding surface of the target blank is sandblasted, cleaned, and then a titanium metal layer is plated, and then the target blank is welded with a copper back plate, and finally diffusion welded by hot isostatic pressing equipment. Although both methods can be used for welding, their welding strength is not high, which affects the welding quality of the product.
[0005] In summary, for the welding process of cobalt targets, it is also necessary to provide a suitable pre-treatment process according to the characteristics of the target material to simplify the operation, reduce costs and improve welding strength. Summary of the invention
[0006] The object of the present invention is to provide a diffusion welding method for a cobalt target material. By first turning a welding groove on a back plate and then performing a second turning process, a good contact area between the cobalt target blank and the back plate is ensured, while the cleanliness of the back plate welding surface is effectively controlled, thereby reducing the difficulty of combining the cobalt target blank and the back plate and improving the welding strength between the two.
[0007] In order to achieve the purpose of the invention, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0008] The present invention provides a diffusion welding method for a cobalt target material, the diffusion welding method comprising the following steps:
[0009] (1) performing a coating treatment on the welding surface of the cobalt target blank, and then performing a second ultrasonic cleaning to obtain a coated cobalt target blank;
[0010] (2) a first turning process is performed on the welding surface of the back plate to form a welding groove matching the cobalt target blank, and then a second turning process is performed on the surface of the welding groove, and then a third ultrasonic cleaning process is performed to obtain a processed back plate;
[0011] (3) assembling the cobalt target blank after coating in step (1) and the back plate processed in step (2) and placing them in a sheath, degassing the sheath and performing hot isostatic pressing welding;
[0012] There is no particular order in which steps (1) and (2) are performed.
[0013] In the present invention, due to the material characteristics of the cobalt target, diffusion welding between the target and the back plate is difficult, so the cobalt target blank or the back plate needs to be pre-treated. The cobalt target blank in step (1) is a cobalt target blank that has been subjected to frustum grinding.
[0014] The diffusion welding method provided by the present invention, through the first turning processing welding groove on the back plate welding surface, as a positioning feature in the welding process, helps to control welding deformation, and can ensure that there is a good contact area between the cobalt target blank and the back plate, which helps to achieve more uniform heat distribution and pressure transfer during the welding process, thereby improving the welding quality; and then the second turning processing is performed on the surface of the welding groove, which can not only remove the oil stains such as cutting fluid generated during the first turning process, thereby effectively controlling the cleanliness of the back plate welding surface, but also effectively control the flatness and roughness of the back plate welding surface; at the same time, by coating the cobalt target blank welding surface and controlling the cleanliness of the cobalt target blank welding surface, the difficulty of combining the cobalt target blank and the back plate can be reduced, thereby improving the welding strength between the two, and then improving the welding quality and efficiency of the product. The diffusion welding method is simple to operate, has high welding strength and welding efficiency, and good stability.
[0015] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, before the coating treatment in step (1), a first ultrasonic cleaning and a first vacuum drying are sequentially performed.
[0016] Preferably, the medium used for the first ultrasonic cleaning is IPA liquid.
[0017] In the present invention, the cobalt target blank is placed with its welding surface facing downward during the first ultrasonic cleaning.
[0018] Preferably, the first ultrasonic cleaning time is 3-7 min, for example, 3.5 min, 4 min, 5 min, 5.5 min, 6 min or 6.5 min, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other values within the numerical range are also applicable.
[0019] Preferably, the first vacuum drying time is ≥ 60 min, for example, it can be 62 min, 65 min, 68 min, 70 min, 75 min or 80 min, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values within the numerical range are also applicable.
[0020] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the material of the coating in step (1) includes titanium.
[0021] Preferably, the thickness of the film layer formed after the coating treatment in step (1) is 3-5 μm, for example, it can be 3.2 μm, 3.5 μm, 3.8 μm, 4 μm, 4.2 μm, 4.5 μm or 4.8 μm, but is not limited to the listed values, and other values within the numerical range are also applicable.
[0022] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the medium used for the second ultrasonic cleaning in step (1) is IPA liquid.
[0023] In the present invention, the cobalt target blank is placed with its welding surface facing downward during the second ultrasonic cleaning.

[0034] In the present invention, since the second turning process does not use cutting fluid, the feed rate and rotation speed of the second turning process need to be controlled to ensure that the surface of the welding groove is bright, uniform in color, and free of rust and dirt after processing, thereby helping to improve the welding strength between the cobalt target blank and the backing plate.

[0086] Example 4
[0087] This embodiment provides a diffusion welding method for a cobalt target material. Except that the depth of the welding groove in step (2) is less than the thickness of the cobalt target blank and the difference is 0.1 mm, other conditions are the same as those in Embodiment 1.
[0088] Example 5
[0089] This embodiment provides a diffusion welding method for a cobalt target material. Except that the depth of the welding groove in step (2) is less than the thickness of the cobalt target blank, and the difference is 0.8 mm, other conditions are the same as those in Embodiment 1.
[0090] Example 6
[0091] This embodiment provides a diffusion welding method for a cobalt target material. Except that the rotation speed of the second turning process in step (2) is 350 r / min, other conditions are the same as those in Embodiment 1.
[0092] Example 7
[0093] This embodiment provides a diffusion welding method for a cobalt target material. Except that the rotation speed of the second turning process in step (2) is 650 r / min, other conditions are the same as those in Embodiment 1.
[0094] Comparative Example 1
[0095] This comparative example provides a diffusion welding method for a cobalt target material. Except for using cutting fluid in the second turning process in step (2), other conditions are the same as those in Example 1.
[0096] Comparative Example 2
[0097] This comparative example provides a diffusion welding method for a cobalt target material. Except that the second turning process is not performed in step (2), other conditions are the same as those in Example 1.
[0098] The surface roughness of the welding groove after processing in step (2) in the above-mentioned embodiment and comparative example was detected by a roughness detector, and the welding bonding rate and welding strength of the welding interface between the cobalt target blank and the copper back plate after the hot isostatic pressing welding in step (3) in the above-mentioned embodiment and comparative example were detected by an ultrasonic flaw detector; the results are shown in Table 1.
[0099] Table 1
[0100]
[0101] From Table 1, we can see that:
[0102] (1) The diffusion welding method provided in Examples 1-3 of the present invention, by first turning a welding groove on the welding surface of the copper back plate, and then performing a second turning process on the surface, ensures that there is a good contact area between the cobalt target blank and the copper back plate, while effectively controlling the cleanliness of the welding surface of the copper back plate, thereby reducing the difficulty of combining the cobalt target blank and the copper back plate, and improving the welding strength between the two. The welding bonding rate of the obtained cobalt target assembly is 100%, and the welding strength is ≥70MPa;
[0103] (2) By comparing Example 1 with Examples 4-5, it can be seen that the height difference between the target blank and the back plate can make the sheath fully shrink and wrap the product during hot isostatic pressing welding, so that the welding surface contact is closer, thereby improving the welding strength; when the depth of the copper back plate welding groove is too small, the welding strength decreases, but it cannot be lower than the thickness of the sheath, and there is a risk of penetration; when the depth of the copper back plate welding groove is too large, although the effect is similar to that of Example 1, because the target blank is very thin, during the early preparation of welding, the target blank may be separated from the positioning groove due to factors such as transportation, resulting in the risk of welding failure, thereby causing the target blank to be scrapped;
[0104] (3) By comparing Example 1 with Examples 6-7, it can be seen that when the rotation speed of the second turning process is too slow, not only is the production efficiency low, but the too slow rotation speed is easy to wear the tool, affecting the surface finish of the welding surface, resulting in an increase in the roughness of the copper back plate welding surface; when the rotation speed of the second turning process is too fast, it leads to heat dissipation difficulties, and at the same time, the tool vibration is obvious during the processing, which also causes the roughness of the copper back plate welding surface to increase, thereby affecting the welding quality;
[0105] (4) By comparing Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that when cutting fluid is used in the second turning process, the copper back plate welding surface is contaminated with oil and is not easy to remove, resulting in poor cleanliness of the copper back plate welding surface, affecting the welding strength; By comparing Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, it can be seen that when the second turning process is not performed, not only can the cutting fluid and other oil stains generated during the first turning process not be removed, resulting in poor cleanliness of the copper back plate welding surface, but the flatness and roughness of the copper back plate welding surface cannot be effectively controlled, affecting the welding strength.
[0106] The applicant declares that the present invention illustrates the detailed structural features of the present invention through the above-mentioned embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned detailed structural features, that is, it does not mean that the present invention must rely on the above-mentioned detailed structural features to be implemented.
