简介 |
A sintered sputtering target which has a structure having an average crystallite size of 1 nm to 50 nm and preferably comprises an alloy having three or more elements and containing, as a main component, at least one element selected from among Zr, Pd, Cu, Co, Fe, Ti, Mg, Sr, Y, Nb, Mo, Tc, Ru, Rh, Ag, Cd, In, Sn, Sb, Te and a rare earth metal; and a method for producing said target, which comprises sintering an atomized powder. The target and the method provide a target having an extremely fine and uniform structure having a high density and being produced by the sintering method, in place of a conventional bulk metal glass produced by the rapid cooling of a molten metal, which has a coarse crystal structure and requires a high cost for its production. |
