[0106] By comparing the data in Table 1, it is found that each embodiment can prepare nano metal oxide powder for ceramic target material with high purity, nanometer particle size (below 100 nm), large specific surface area, uniform particle size and no agglomeration.

[0107] As can be seen from Table 1, in Comparative Example 1, when a controllable amount of material is fed into the furnace body during the reaction process to achieve precise control of the material layer height, the particles of the metal oxide are significantly enlarged and become submicron-level. After analysis, this is because when the material layer height cannot be accurately and stably controlled, for example, in Comparative Example 1, as the reaction proceeds, the material stacking height decreases, but the position of the air inlet remains unchanged, resulting in a change in the wind speed on the reaction interface, causing the powder particle size to increase; in Comparative Example 2, when the excitation winding is not provided on the peripheral surface of the furnace body, the particles of the metal oxide are significantly coarser and the production capacity is significantly reduced. After analysis, this may be because the rotating magnetic field generated by the excitation winding can cause the plasma to rotate and thereby increase the size of the plasma in the horizontal direction, expand the reaction area, and make the temperature in the furnace more uniform, thereby reducing the particle size distribution of the output powder and increasing the production capacity.

It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
