Title:
BI-GE-O SINTERED BODY SPUTTERING TARGET, METHOD FOR PRODUCING SAME, AND OPTICAL RECORDING MEDIUM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/062021
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed are: a Bi-Ge-O sintered body sputtering target which is composed of bismuth (Bi), germanium (Ge) and oxygen (O) and characterized in that the atom number ratio of Bi and Ge satisfies 0.57 < (Bi/(Bi + Ge)) < 0.75 and the crystal phase is configured of two phases, namely Bi12GeO20 and Bi4Ge3O12; a method for producing the Bi-Ge-O sintered body sputtering target; and an optical recording medium. Specifically disclosed is a Bi-Ge-O sintered body sputtering target which has excellent thermal shock resistance and is capable of achieving greatly improved production efficiency since the Bi-Ge-O sintered body sputtering target enables high-power sputtering. The Bi-Ge-O sintered body sputtering target does not suffer from cracks and generates little particles during the sputtering, so that a thin film with high quality can be stably produced and an optical recording medium that is free from recording bit errors can be obtained. Also specifically disclosed are: a method for producing the Bi-Ge-O sintered body sputtering target; and an optical recording medium.
