Description

本発明は、例えば大画面の平面表示装置等の電気配線や電極等に用いられる金属薄膜の形成に使用されるターゲット材の製造方法に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a method for producing a target material used for forming a metal thin film used for electrical wiring, electrodes, etc., for example, for a large screen flat display device.

現在、平面表示装置の一種である液晶ディスプレイ(Liquid Crystal Display、以下「LCD」という)の薄膜電極および薄膜配線等には、電気抵抗の小さいMo等の高融点の金属薄膜が用いられている。この金属薄膜を形成する方法として、スパッタリング法が好適とされ、ターゲット材が広く利用されている。そして、近年のLCDは、ガラス基板サイズが1500mm×1800mm以上となるような超大型化に伴い、金属薄膜を形成するためのターゲット材に対しても大型化が要求されている。   Currently, a high-melting-point metal thin film such as Mo having a low electric resistance is used for a thin film electrode and a thin film wiring of a liquid crystal display (hereinafter referred to as “LCD”) which is a kind of flat display device. As a method for forming the metal thin film, a sputtering method is suitable, and a target material is widely used. In recent LCDs, as the glass substrate size is increased to 1500 mm × 1800 mm or more, the target material for forming the metal thin film is required to be increased in size.

そして、上記のような超大型のLCDに金属薄膜を形成する場合には、マルチカソード方式といわれる全長が3000mm以上の長尺型のターゲット材を並べて使用するスパッタリング装置が使用されるようになってきている。   When a metal thin film is formed on the above ultra-large LCD, a sputtering apparatus that uses a long target material having a total length of 3000 mm or more, which is called a multi-cathode method, is used. ing.

融点の高いMoは、溶解鋳造法による製造が困難であるため、一般に粉末焼結法によりターゲット材が作製されている。そして、一般的に、Mo原料粉末の平均粒径が10μm以下と細かく、Mo原料粉末が凝集した形態で存在しているために、加圧容器への充填密度が上がらず、加圧焼結後に変形しやすいことから、その対策が検討されてきた。
例えば、Mo原料粉末を圧縮成形した複数の圧密体を加圧容器に入れ込み、熱間静水圧プレス(以下、「HIP」という。)により、これらの複数の圧密体同士を接合することが提案されている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。
Since Mo having a high melting point is difficult to produce by a melt casting method, a target material is generally produced by a powder sintering method. And generally, since the average particle diameter of the Mo raw material powder is as fine as 10 μm or less and the Mo raw material powder is present in an aggregated form, the packing density in the pressurized container does not increase, and after pressure sintering Since it is easy to deform, the countermeasure has been examined.
For example, it is proposed to put a plurality of compacts formed by compressing Mo raw material powder into a pressurized container and to join these compacts together by hot isostatic pressing (hereinafter referred to as “HIP”). (For example, refer to Patent Document 1).

本発明者の検討によると、圧縮成形した圧密体の接合面の形状が平坦でなかったり、外周面の形状が曲がったりしていると、圧密体同士を接合したときに、得られるターゲット材に曲がりが生じる場合があることを確認した。この曲がりの問題は、ターゲット材に切削加工などを施して形状を修正する必要があり、歩留の低下につながる。   According to the inventor's study, when the shape of the joint surface of the compacted compact is not flat or the shape of the outer peripheral surface is bent, the target material obtained when the compacts are joined together It was confirmed that bending may occur. This problem of bending requires cutting the target material to correct the shape, leading to a decrease in yield.

本発明の目的は、上記課題に鑑み、原料粉末を圧縮成形した圧密体を積層挿入して加圧焼結した長尺型のターゲット材で曲がりを発生させることなく、形状精度に優れたターゲット材を安定的に良好な歩留で製造する方法を提供することである。   In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is a target material that is excellent in shape accuracy without causing bending in a long target material that is pressure-sintered by laminating and inserting compacted compacts obtained by compressing raw material powder. It is to provide a method for stably producing a product with a good yield.

本発明者は、上記課題を解決する方法を種々検討した結果、先ず、原料粉末を冷間静水圧プレス(以下、「CIP」という。)で圧縮成型した圧密体を作製することを着想した。そして、この圧密体を所定形状となるように切削加工して成形体とし、該成形体を加圧容器に積層挿入して脱気封止した後にHIPにより加圧焼結することで、等方的組織である形状精度に優れた長尺型のターゲット材を容易に製造できることを見出し、本発明に到達した。   As a result of various studies on methods for solving the above problems, the present inventor first conceived of producing a compacted body obtained by compression-molding a raw material powder with a cold isostatic press (hereinafter referred to as “CIP”). Then, the compacted body is cut into a predetermined shape to form a molded body, and the molded body is laminated and inserted into a pressurized container, degassed and sealed, and then pressure-sintered with HIP, so that isotropic The present inventors have found that a long target material excellent in shape accuracy, which is a target structure, can be easily produced, and has reached the present invention.

すなわち、本発明は、原料粉末を冷間静水圧プレスで圧縮成形して圧密体を作製し、次いで前記圧密体を所定の形状寸法となるように切削加工して成形体とし、該成形体を加圧容器に積層挿入して脱気封止した後に熱間静水圧プレスにより加圧焼結して焼結体を得るターゲット材の製造方法の発明である。
本発明では、前記焼結体を長手方向で複数に切断することもできる。
また、本発明では、前記焼結体を長手方向に対する直角方向で複数に切断することもできる。
That is, in the present invention, a raw material powder is compression-molded by a cold isostatic press to produce a compacted body, and then the compacted body is cut so as to have a predetermined shape dimension to form a compacted body. It is an invention of a method for producing a target material, in which a sintered body is obtained by pressure-sintering by hot isostatic pressing after laminating and inserting into a pressure vessel and sealing with deaeration.
In the present invention, the sintered body can be cut into a plurality of pieces in the longitudinal direction.
Moreover, in this invention, the said sintered compact can also be cut | disconnected into two or more by the orthogonal | vertical direction with respect to a longitudinal direction.

本発明によれば、例えば全長が3000mm以上の長尺型のターゲット材を曲がりを発生させることなく、高い形状精度で、良好な歩留で安定して製造することが可能となる。また、これにより、超大型サイズのLCD基板に安定して金属薄膜を成膜することが可能なターゲット材を提供することができ、LCDの製造にとって有用な技術となる。   According to the present invention, for example, a long target material having a total length of 3000 mm or more can be stably manufactured with high shape accuracy and good yield without causing bending. In addition, this makes it possible to provide a target material capable of stably forming a metal thin film on an ultra-large size LCD substrate, which is a useful technique for LCD production.

本発明の製造方法の一例を示す模式図である。It is a schematic diagram which shows an example of the manufacturing method of this invention. 本発明の製造方法の別の例を示す模式図である。It is a schematic diagram which shows another example of the manufacturing method of this invention.

本発明のターゲット材の製造方法では、まず、原料粉末をCIPで圧縮成形して圧密体を作製する。プレス成形等の一軸応力により圧縮成形して圧密体を得ようとすると、全体としての総荷重が大きくなり、設備上の制約が生じる場合がある。その上、圧密体内部での密度分布に差が生じる場合がある。
原料粉末を圧縮成形する手段としては、HIPも適用できる可能性があるところ、HIPで得た圧密体は、硬度が高くなり、後述する切削加工を湿式で行なう場合がある。このため、圧密体や切削粉に付着した油分を除去する工程と切削粉を粉砕する工程が必須となる上、加圧焼結時の圧密体同士の接合が困難になるという問題がある。
このため、本発明では、原料粉末を圧縮成形するために、等方的に成形圧力を付加でき、均一で高い相対密度の圧密体を得ることができるCIPを採用する。これにより、本発明は、次工程で積層挿入するのに好適な圧密体の形状に整えることができる。尚、CIPの条件は、圧密体のハンドリング時や後述する切削加工時に必要な十分な強度と相対密度を有する圧密体を得るために、加圧力10〜1000MPaの条件で行うことが好ましい。
本発明で適用する圧密体の相対密度は、50%以上にすることが好ましい。これは、予め圧密体の強度を増しておくことで、運搬等のハンドリングや切削加工時に圧密体の破損を防ぐためである。また、予め圧密体の密度を確保する理由は、複数の成形体に熱間静水圧プレスを施す際に、焼結における個々の成形体の収縮が過度に進み、圧縮による寸法変形で焼結体に曲がりや局所的な収縮等が生じる問題を抑制するためでもある。
In the method for producing a target material of the present invention, first, raw material powder is compression-molded by CIP to produce a consolidated body. When trying to obtain a compacted body by compression molding by uniaxial stress such as press molding, the total load as a whole becomes large, and there may be restrictions on equipment. In addition, there may be a difference in the density distribution inside the compact.
As a means for compression molding the raw material powder, there is a possibility that HIP can also be applied. However, the compacted body obtained by HIP has high hardness, and there is a case where a cutting process described later is performed by a wet process. For this reason, the process of removing the oil component adhering to the compacted body and the cutting powder and the process of pulverizing the cutting powder are essential, and there is a problem that it becomes difficult to join the compacted bodies during pressure sintering.
For this reason, in this invention, in order to compress-mold raw material powder, CIP which can apply a molding pressure isotropically and can obtain the compact with a uniform high relative density is employ | adopted. Thereby, this invention can arrange in the shape of the compact body suitable for carrying out lamination | stacking insertion at the next process. The CIP conditions are preferably performed under a pressure of 10 to 1000 MPa in order to obtain a consolidated body having sufficient strength and relative density required for handling the consolidated body and for cutting processing described later.
The relative density of the compacted body applied in the present invention is preferably 50% or more. This is because the strength of the compacted body is increased in advance to prevent breakage of the compacted body during handling such as transportation or cutting. In addition, the reason why the density of the compacted body is secured in advance is that, when hot isostatic pressing is performed on a plurality of compacts, the shrinkage of the individual compacts in the sintering proceeds excessively, and the compacts are deformed due to compression. This is also for suppressing problems such as bending and local shrinkage.

本発明で適用できる圧密体の形状は、例えば平板型のターゲット材であれば立方体あるいは直方体であり、円筒型のターゲット材であれば円筒体あるいは円柱体であり、特に限定されない。
また、本発明で適用できる原料粉末としては金属粉末が適用でき、例えばMo、Ti、Zr、Hf、V、Nb、Ta、Cr、Wなどの高融点金属単体や、またはそれら複数を混合したものや合金でもよく、特に限定されない。また、本発明で適用する金属粉末の平均粒径は、特に限定はしないところ、0.5〜1000μmのものを用いることが好ましい。尚、本発明でいう平均粒径は、JIS Z 8901で規定される、レーザー光を用いた光散乱法による球相当径で表す。
The shape of the compact that can be applied in the present invention is not particularly limited, for example, a flat target material is a cube or a cuboid, and a cylindrical target material is a cylinder or a column.
In addition, as the raw material powder applicable in the present invention, metal powder can be applied, for example, refractory metals such as Mo, Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, W, or a mixture thereof. It may be an alloy or an alloy, and is not particularly limited. In addition, the average particle size of the metal powder applied in the present invention is not particularly limited, but it is preferable to use a metal powder having a size of 0.5 to 1000 μm. In addition, the average particle diameter as used in the field of this invention is represented by the spherical equivalent diameter by the light-scattering method using a laser beam prescribed | regulated by JISZ8901.

本発明のターゲット材の製造方法では、上記で得た圧密体を所定の形状寸法となるように切削加工して成形体とする。上記で説明したように、圧縮成形した圧密体などを積層して長尺のターゲット材を得ようとすると、圧縮成形した圧密体の接合面の形状が平坦でなかったり、外周面の形状が曲がったりしている場合に、圧密体を接合したときに得られるターゲット材に曲がりが生じる場合がある。
本発明では、上記で得たCIPで圧縮成形した圧密体の接合面となる面を平行に切削加工すること、および前記接合面以外の面を平坦に切削加工することで所定の形状寸法の成形体を得る。これにより、成形体を金属容器内に隙間なく整列して積層挿入することができ、得られる焼結体の長手方向の曲がりの抑制が可能となる。その結果、形状精度に優れた焼結体が得られるため、最終の切削加工における削り代を少なくすることができ、歩留向上に寄与する。
また、本発明で適用する圧密体が円筒形状の場合は、内周面も切削加工することが好ましい。
In the method for producing a target material of the present invention, the compacted body obtained above is cut into a molded body so as to have a predetermined shape dimension. As described above, when trying to obtain a long target material by stacking compacted compacts, etc., the shape of the joint surface of the compacted compact is not flat or the outer peripheral surface is bent. In some cases, the target material obtained when the compacted body is joined may be bent.
In the present invention, a surface to be a joint surface of the compacted body compression-molded with the CIP obtained above is cut in parallel, and a surface other than the joint surface is cut flat to form a predetermined shape and size. Get the body. As a result, the compacts can be stacked and inserted into the metal container without gaps, and the bending of the sintered body obtained in the longitudinal direction can be suppressed. As a result, a sintered body excellent in shape accuracy can be obtained, so that the machining allowance in the final cutting process can be reduced, which contributes to the improvement in yield.
Moreover, when the compacted body applied by this invention is a cylindrical shape, it is preferable to also cut an internal peripheral surface.

また、本発明では、圧密体の圧縮成形にCIPを採用しているため、切削加工で発生した粉末に粉砕や洗浄などの処理を施すことなく、圧密体を作製する際の原料粉末や他の原料粉末としてそのまま再利用することが可能となり、工数の削減に加え、ターゲット材の総歩留の低下を抑制することができる。
尚、本発明で圧密体を切削加工する際は、例えば圧密体が立方体あるいは直方体である場合にはフライス盤を用いることが好ましく、圧密体が円柱もしくは円筒形状である場合には旋盤等を用いることが好ましい。
また、ハンドリングによる圧密体や成形体の破損を防ぐために、圧密体の切削加工前または成形体の焼結前に仮焼工程を設けて、圧密体や成形体の表面を硬くして形状保持力を向上させてもよい。
Further, in the present invention, since CIP is adopted for compression molding of the compacted body, the raw material powder or other materials used for producing the compacted body without subjecting the powder generated by the cutting process to grinding or washing. As a raw material powder, it can be reused as it is, and in addition to the reduction in man-hours, the reduction in the total yield of the target material can be suppressed.
When cutting the compacted body in the present invention, for example, when the compacted body is a cube or a rectangular parallelepiped, it is preferable to use a milling machine, and when the compacted body is a cylinder or a cylindrical shape, a lathe or the like is used. Is preferred.
In addition, in order to prevent damage to the compacted body and molded body due to handling, a calcining process is provided before cutting the compacted body or before sintering the molded body to harden the surface of the compacted body and the molded body to maintain shape retention. May be improved.

次に、本発明では、上記で得た成形体を加圧容器に積層挿入して脱気封止した後にHIPにより加圧焼結して焼結体を得る。図1に長尺のターゲット材の製造に際し、成形体に直方体を適用した場合の一例を示す。
本発明では、例えば、直方体からなる成形体1を加圧容器2に積層挿入して、脱気封止する。尚、本発明では、個々の成形体1のハンドリング性を損なわない範囲で成形体1のサイズを大きくすることで、切削工数および積層工数の削減ができるため、好ましい。
また、本発明では、加圧容器2を加熱しながら脱気パイプ3から脱気する。脱気条件は、加熱温度100〜600℃の範囲で、1kPaよりも低い圧力まで減圧を行うことが好ましい。
Next, in the present invention, the molded body obtained above is laminated and inserted into a pressure vessel, deaerated and sealed, and then subjected to pressure sintering with HIP to obtain a sintered body. FIG. 1 shows an example in which a rectangular parallelepiped is applied to a molded body in the production of a long target material.
In the present invention, for example, the molded body 1 made of a rectangular parallelepiped is stacked and inserted into the pressurized container 2 to be deaerated and sealed. In the present invention, it is preferable to increase the size of the molded body 1 within a range that does not impair the handling properties of the individual molded bodies 1 because the number of cutting steps and the number of laminating steps can be reduced.
In the present invention, the pressurized container 2 is deaerated from the deaeration pipe 3 while being heated. The deaeration condition is preferably reduced to a pressure lower than 1 kPa in a heating temperature range of 100 to 600 ° C.

次に、脱気封止した加圧容器2をHIPにより加圧焼結する。HIP条件は、焼結温度を450℃以上で原料粉末の融点未満、加圧力を30〜150MPa、HIP時間を0.5〜10時間とすることが好ましい。
加圧力が150MPaを超えると、耐え得る装置が限られるという問題がある。また、焼結時間が0.5時間未満以下では、焼結を十分に進行させるのが難しく、高密度の焼結体を得にくい。一方、10時間を超える焼結時間は、製造効率において避ける方がよい。
本発明では、温度を450℃以上、加圧力を30MPa以上とすることにより、相対密度を向上させることに加え、成形体1同士の十分な接合強度を得ることができるという効果を奏する。
また、原料粉末の融点未満の温度で焼結することにより、一体成型された焼結体の組織中で結晶粒の粗大化が抑制でき、ターゲット材としてスパッタリングする際に、異常放電等の不具合の発生を低減できるという効果も得られる。本発明では、均一微細な結晶粒および十分な接合強度を有したターゲット材を得るために、HIPの焼結温度を700〜1250℃にすることがより好ましい。
Next, the depressurized and sealed pressurized container 2 is pressure-sintered with HIP. The HIP conditions are preferably a sintering temperature of 450 ° C. or higher, less than the melting point of the raw material powder, a pressure of 30 to 150 MPa, and a HIP time of 0.5 to 10 hours.
When the applied pressure exceeds 150 MPa, there is a problem that the devices that can withstand are limited. Moreover, if the sintering time is less than 0.5 hours, it is difficult to sufficiently advance the sintering, and it is difficult to obtain a high-density sintered body. On the other hand, sintering times exceeding 10 hours are better avoided in production efficiency.
In the present invention, by setting the temperature to 450 ° C. or higher and the applied pressure to 30 MPa or higher, in addition to improving the relative density, there is an effect that a sufficient bonding strength between the molded bodies 1 can be obtained.
In addition, by sintering at a temperature lower than the melting point of the raw material powder, it is possible to suppress the coarsening of crystal grains in the structure of the integrally molded sintered body. The effect that generation | occurrence | production can be reduced is also acquired. In the present invention, in order to obtain a target material having uniform fine crystal grains and sufficient bonding strength, the sintering temperature of HIP is more preferably 700 to 1250 ° C.

本発明においては、複数の成形体を加圧容器に積層挿入する際に、成形体同士の間、すなわち成形体の接合される面間に、成形体と同一組成の原料粉末を介在させてもよい。相対密度が低い圧密体の表面を切削加工すると、得られる成形体の表面粗さが粗くなることがある。このような複数の成形体のみを金属カプセルに積層挿入した場合は、成形体同士の接合面に隙間が生じてしまい、このような状態でHIPをすると、その接合面の焼結が十分に進まない可能性がある。本発明では、成形体同士の間に、成形体と同一組成の原料粉末を介在させることにより、接合面の隙間を完全に除去し、成形体全体を均一に焼結することが可能となり、得られるターゲット材の形状精度をより向上させることができる。   In the present invention, when a plurality of molded bodies are stacked and inserted into a pressurized container, a raw material powder having the same composition as the molded body may be interposed between the molded bodies, that is, between the surfaces to which the molded bodies are joined. Good. When the surface of a compacted body having a low relative density is cut, the surface roughness of the resulting molded body may become rough. When only such a plurality of molded bodies are laminated and inserted into the metal capsule, a gap is formed on the joint surface between the molded bodies. When HIP is performed in such a state, sintering of the joint surface sufficiently proceeds. There is no possibility. In the present invention, by interposing the raw material powder having the same composition as the compacts between the compacts, it is possible to completely remove the gap between the joint surfaces and uniformly sinter the entire compact. The shape accuracy of the target material to be obtained can be further improved.

また、本発明においては、例えば、長手方向で複数に切断して平板状の長尺型ターゲット材とすることもできる。このとき、複数の成形体を積層方向に全長が2000mm以上となるように加圧容器内に積層して加圧焼結したのち、その焼結体を長手方向に切断すると、外周面または切断面をターゲット材のスパッタ面にすることができ、一回の加圧焼結であっても長尺で大面積のスパッタ面を有するターゲット材が複数枚得られるため、生産効率の点でも有用である。
また、ターゲット材の厚さは、スパッタリング装置によって異なるところ、殆どの場合には20mm以下である。そこで、本発明では、加圧焼結後の焼結体を長手方向に対する直角方向で複数に切断することで、一回の加圧焼結であっても平板状のターゲット材が複数枚得られるため、生産効率の点でも有用である。
Moreover, in this invention, it can also cut | disconnect into plurality in a longitudinal direction, and can also be set as a flat target object of a flat form. At this time, after laminating a plurality of molded bodies in a pressure vessel so as to have a total length of 2000 mm or more in the laminating direction and performing pressure sintering, the sintered body is cut in the longitudinal direction to obtain an outer peripheral surface or a cut surface. Can be used as the sputtering surface of the target material, and even with a single pressure sintering, a plurality of target materials having a long and large area sputtering surface can be obtained, which is also useful in terms of production efficiency. .
The thickness of the target material varies depending on the sputtering apparatus, and in most cases is 20 mm or less. Therefore, in the present invention, by cutting the sintered body after pressure sintering into a plurality of pieces in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, a plurality of flat target materials can be obtained even by one pressure sintering. Therefore, it is useful also in terms of production efficiency.
