Title:
SINTER, SPUTTERING TARGET AND MOLDING DIE, AND PRODUCTION PROCESS OF SINTER USING THE SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2006/082760
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
This invention provides a large sputtering target that is good in discharge properties during sputtering and properties of a thin film formed therefrom. There is also provided a production process of a sinter that can directly form a large molded product having an excellent accuracy of shape using a cold isostatic press without preforming and can produce a sinter, which can provide the above good sputtering target, at low lost with high efficiency. A sputtering target is produced using a sinter in which the content of carbon contained as an impurity has been brought to less than 0.005% by weight. The sinter is produced by molding a raw material powder directly by a cold isostatic press without adding an organic matter-containing binder and a molding aid and firing the molded product. The sinter can be produced by using a molding die having such a structure that, at the time of pressure compression, a filled raw material powder can be pressed only in a substantially monoaxial direction and, at the time of a reduction in pressure after the completion of pressing, the pressure can be released isotropically with respect to the molded product. Further, a large target in which the thickness of the erosion region has been increased can easily be produced at a high yield, contributing to improved usage of the target.
