[0002] Ultra-high purity iron, i.e. high purity iron with a purity greater than 5N (99.999%), has excellent ductility, corrosion resistance, excellent thermal conductivity, soft magnetism and high electrical conductivity. These characteristics make it widely used in aerospace, energy, chemical industry, marine engineering and semiconductor industries, such as for manufacturing high-performance engine parts, electromagnetic shielding materials, soft magnetic materials, integrated circuits and amorphous alloys, which can significantly improve the comprehensive performance of materials and the quality of products.

[0003] The application of ZrVFe alloy targets in the semiconductor field is mainly reflected in its use as a preparation material for the getter film required for semiconductor chip packaging. The film is formed during the manufacturing process of semiconductor devices through magnetron sputtering technology, and its high getter performance is used to absorb gas impurities inside the device, thereby improving the performance and reliability of semiconductor devices. CN115679274B discloses a ZrVFe alloy target material and a preparation method and application thereof, comprising the following preparation steps: (1) alloy suspension smelting: Zr and V are used to suspend and smelt a ZrV alloy under argon protection conditions, and then Fe is added for smelting, and the ZrVFe alloy ingot is cooled along with the furnace to obtain a ZrVFe alloy ingot; (2) suspension refining and casting cooling: the ZrVFe alloy ingot is subjected to suspension refining under argon protection conditions, cast and mold, and immediately cooled after molding to obtain an alloy target blank; (3) cutting and preliminary processing: the upper part of the alloy target blank is cut and preliminary processed to obtain a target blank; (4) hot isostatic pressing: the target blank is sheathed, degassed, and then hot isostatic pressing is performed; (5) target material machining: the target blank after hot isostatic pressing is grinded by a grinder to obtain a ZrVFe alloy target material.
