Title:
FEPT-C-BASED SPUTTERING TARGET AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/132939
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention enables an FePtC-based thin film having a high carbon content to be formed from a single target without requiring the use of a plurality of targets. The invention provides an FePt-C-based sputtering target which comprises Fe, Pt, and C, the sputtering target having a structure configured so that an Fe-Pt alloy phase which comprises 40-60 at.% Pt and, as the remainder, Fe and incidental impurities and a carbon phase which contains incidental impurities have been dispersed in each other, the carbon content of the whole target being 21-70 at.%. The FePt-C-based sputtering target can be produced, for example, by adding a carbon powder containing incidental impurities to an Fe-Pt alloy powder which comprises 40-60 at.% Pt and, as the remainder, Fe and incidental impurities, mixing the powders in an oxygenic atmosphere to produce a powder mixture, and thereafter heating and molding the produced powder mixture with pressurizing.
