Abstract

PURPOSE:To make compsn. as a target uniform and to improve productivity by adding indium to tellurium and selenium subjected to heating and melting in a vacuum then to pulverizing and further subjecting the mixture to heating and pressurizing. CONSTITUTION:The indium is added to the tellurium and selenium which are heated and melted in a vacuum or inert gaseous atmosphere and are powdered by quick cooling. The mixture is pulverized in a nonoxidative atmosphere and the powder is cold worked to an ingot. The ingot is further heated and pressurized under 10kg/cm<2> at 300-450 deg.C and is then subjected to finish working to form the sputtering target having the prescribed shape for optical recording. The films having the same compsn. are thus obtd. and the sputtering conditions are stabilized. The productivity is improved by continuous sputtering.

[Prior Art] The first characteristic of optical disk memory is its large storage capacity. Compared to magnetic disks and VTRs, the recording density per unit area is at least 1
It is as high as 0 times or more. Recently, the emergence of large-capacity magnetic recording memories is expected due to the development of perpendicularly magnetized films, but with magnetic recording methods, wear and tear due to touch-and-run between the head and the disk cannot be avoided during recording and reading.
