Conventionally, in a SnO 2 -based sintered body, Sn
Addition of antimony oxide (Sb 2 O 3 ) has been performed to reduce the resistance value of the O 2 thin film. In order to manufacture such a sputtering target made of a SnO 2 sintered body to which Sb 2 O 3 is added, a hot press (HP) method is generally used. In the hot press method, since sintering is performed while applying pressure, although it is advantageous in improving the firing density and strength to some extent,
It is not easy to obtain a large sintered body due to limitations on the apparatus. Therefore, conventionally, when manufacturing a large-sized sputtering target, it is generally performed to form a target by laminating a plurality of sintered bodies. However, when a SnO 2 thin film is formed by sputtering using a target having a plurality of joints, arcing and nodules are generated from the joints, and there is a problem that stable film formation cannot be performed. Therefore, since a seamless target and a target having a smaller number of joints are required, a technique for manufacturing a larger sintered body is required.

By the way, characteristics required for SnO 2 based transparent conductive film is generally less resistivity 0.1 [Omega · cm of SnO 2 based transparent conductive film, the transmittance of the light having the wavelength 550nm in thickness 1000 Å 80% or more. As described above, the SnO 2 thin film to which Sb 2 O 3 is added is formed by sputtering the SnO 2 target to which Sb 2 O 3 is uniformly added. The Sb 2 O 3 -added SnO 2 thin film thus formed has an order of specific resistance of 10 −3 Ω · cm and a transmittance of light of 550 nm wavelength of 550 nm at a thickness of 1000 Å.
This is about 0%, which satisfies the characteristics required for the SnO 2 -based transparent conductive film.

However, Sn added with Sb 2 O 3
When producing an O 2 target, Sb 2 O 3 is about 1000
It is necessary to heat-treat at a temperature of at least 1000 ° C. at about a temperature of about 100 ° C. because it melts under general atmospheric conditions such as the atmosphere, an oxygen atmosphere, an inert gas or a vacuum. Therefore, when sintering the sintered body by the CP method or the casting method, since the sintering temperature is limited as described above, sintering does not sufficiently proceed, and only a brittle sintered body with insufficient sintering is obtained. There is a problem that can not be. When a sputtering target is manufactured using a sintered body having such brittleness, cracks or cracks are generated in the sintered body due to processing stress during the processing, or the sintered body is placed on a backing plate. There is a problem that cracks occur due to thermal stress during bonding. The tendency for such cracks to occur becomes more pronounced as the size of the target increases.
