Abstract

PURPOSE:To produce a ceramic target without using solder, etc. in a simple stage in the stage of forming a ceramic target on a metallic holder by sticking powder of ceramics to the holder surface by plasma spraying. CONSTITUTION:One surface of a brass holder 2 is preliminarily roughened by sandblasting, etc. and a plasma spraying gun 1 is disposed at 10cm distance from the surface thereof. Gaseous Ar is used as gaseous plasma and Al2O3 particles 6 are instantaneously melted by gaseous Ar plasma 5 so that the target material of Al2O3 is thermally sprayed onto the surface of the holder 2. Such operation is repeated several times to form finally a ceramic target layer 4 having 2mm. thickness. The ceramic target is simply, easily and securely formed at a low cost onto the holder 2 for cathode without using a metallic film and low melting solder to said target 2.

2. Configuration of conventional examples and their problems In recent years, magnetron RF sputtering is often used when producing thin films of inorganic substances, especially in the case of inorganic compounds other than metals. At that time, the sputter talget is made by mixing raw material powders of inorganic compounds, calcining, pulverizing, molding, and baking (
It is manufactured through a long process of sintering) and processing to make it into a shape suitable for sputtering equipment. In this process, the molding, firing, and processing steps do not require large jigs or equipment if the target is small, but it can be In order to obtain a production machine, the above-mentioned jigs and equipment are large-scale and costly. Furthermore, sophisticated firing techniques are required, and it is quite difficult to sinter a large target into a flat plate without warping or cracking. If there is warpage, additional equipment and labor will be required for subsequent corrections, so the top and bottom surfaces should be parallel as much as possible.
It is also necessary to produce a sintered body that is free from warpage. In fact, it is difficult to sinter a large ceramic target of an appropriate shape, so it is necessary to divide the target into parts or to process it with great effort. A thin film of Cu or Ni is applied to one side of the ceramic soctor plate thus prepared by sputtering or vapor deposition, and that surface and the target holder metal plate (
(which becomes part of the cathode of the sputtering device) is bonded using a low melting point epoxy solder to complete the final sputter target. This last process also Cu,
Equipment for forming the Ni film and expensive Inz solder are used, and it takes a long time to remove strain after bonding.

Components of the Invention The method of the present invention basically involves making a target powder into a semi-molten state using, for example, a plasma spraying device, and depositing it on a metal target holder by thermal spraying, thereby forming a ceramic target directly on the metal surface of the holder. It is. This process includes the process of filling a mold with powder and press-forming it, sintering it in an electric furnace, processing and modifying it into an appropriate shape, sputtering or vapor deposition of Cu and Ni,
n) No special bonding process is required. In the process of obtaining powder, especially in the case of complex compounds that are not easily available, chemical synthesis or ceramic solid-phase reactions are used to produce them. In the case of easily available simple inorganic materials, simple powder pretreatment such as heat treatment, grinding,
It can be used by classifying it to a slippery particle size suitable for thermal spraying. The target prepared as described above has good heat conduction from the target material to the cathode electrode, and is firmly attached to the target holder metal plate, so there is no damage such as cracks due to thermal shock when using high sputtering power. It has advantages that are difficult to overcome.

Furthermore, if a non-planar sputter target, which is sometimes used, is required, for example a spherical target, which is conventionally very difficult to manufacture, the present invention can easily provide such a target. That is, a spherical metal target holder is evenly coated on its entire surface.
A spherical target can be easily obtained by thermal spraying the powder.

In this part, the target becomes thinner, and when it decreases to a certain thickness, the entire target must be replaced with a new target 7) even though only a part of the target has become thinner. Therefore, it can be said to be uneconomical. However, the method of the present invention has the advantage that the same material powder can be further thermally sprayed onto the thinned erosion pattern portion and the target material has been reduced to restore the original state.

As shown in Figure 1, a plasma spray gun 1 and a brass target holder 2 (which becomes part of the cathode) with dimensions of 12.7 mm x 38.1 mm were arranged, and the distance between them was maintained at approximately 1 ocrn. . There is a bolt hole in the edge of the brass holder, and since there is no need for target material to adhere to it, I covered it with a stainless steel plate mask 3. The surface side of the target soto holder 2 to which Al2O3 will adhere is roughened by sandblasting in advance.
The surface was left in a rough state. Using Ar gas as plasma gas,
A power of 35V was applied to ○○ at a flow rate of approximately 42.5L per minute. As shown in the cross-sectional view of the plasma spray gun in Figure 2, the Al2O3 particles 6 are instantaneously heated by the Ar gas plasma 5 at a temperature of 10,000 to 20,000°C, and are transported together with the gas to the target holder, where they aggregate and form ceramics. become

As described in detail, according to the method of the present invention, the target is produced using a thermal spraying method, so conventional ceramic equipment is not required, and the process can be easily performed at low cost without the IFT process or bonding process. It can be produced in a short time and can be applied to many inorganic materials that can be thermally sprayed. High melting point substances that are difficult to make into ceramics and high melting point metals that are expensive to process into plate shapes by metallurgy or mechanical processing are generally cheaper in powder form, so it is particularly effective for such targets. In addition, it is possible to easily obtain not only a flat target but also a curved target.
