Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of write-once and repeatedly read (write-once-read-many, WORM) optical record medium.More specifically, the present invention relates to a kind of Write-once-read-many optical recording medium, it can carry out high density recording especially under blue laser wavelengths.The invention still further relates to sputtering target, it can be used in the formation oxide skin, and this oxide skin is for constituting the layer of this Write-once-read-many optical recording medium.
Background technology
Relevant with the Write-once-read-many optical recording medium that can under blue or shorter optical maser wavelength, write down and reproduce, blue laser that can super high-density recording is developed rapidly, and has promoted the exploitation to the Write-once-read-many optical recording medium of blue laser wavelengths sensitivity.
In common Write-once-read-many optical recording medium, laser beam irradiation to the recording layer that comprises organic materials with typically because the decomposition of organic materials and degenerate and change specific refractory power, and thereby form record pit (pit).The optical constant and the decomposition behavior that are used in the organic materials in the recording layer play an important role to forming satisfied record pit.
For the recording layer that the optical record medium that is used for for the blue laser wavelengths sensitivity repeatedly reads in write-once, organic materials must have suitable optical property and decomposition behavior with respect to the light of blue laser wavelengths.More specifically, the wavelength set that writes down obtains higher modulated amplitude thus in the afterbody of the length-wavelength side of the main absorption band refringence to increase the reflectivity in the non-recorded part and to be caused by the decomposition of organic materials when fully increasing when laser radiation.This is because in the main absorption band of this organic materials suitable uptake factor of the wavelength acquisition of length-wavelength side afterbody and high specific refractory power.
Yet, also do not find the organic materials that has the optical property that is equal to common material with respect to the light of blue laser wavelengths.In order to make this organic materials with contiguous blueness-optical maser wavelength absorption band, molecular skeleton must reduce or conjugated system must shorten.Yet this causes the uptake factor of reduction and the specific refractory power of reduction.More specifically, have many uptake factors that have the organic materials of contiguous blueness-optical maser wavelength absorption band and may control them, yet they there is not sufficiently high specific refractory power and can not obtains higher modulated amplitude degree.
Like this,, studying the material that uses inorganic materials and organic materials at present for the material that has the light activated optical property of blue laser wavelengths, and the material that only uses inorganic materials.As the material that uses oxide compound, patent documentation 1 discloses the recording layer that comprises Bi, rare earth, Ga, Fe and O, and this invention has been described and can be formed garnet composition.Patent documentation 2 discloses the optical record medium that uses organic oxygen compound.
Yet these common technology do not have research should form the record mark of which kind of shape to form excellent record mark effectively and to obtain excellent performance.Certainly, the shape that these technology do not have to consider this record mark when using with blueness-wavelength light is to obtain higher modulated amplitude, and it proposes as a problem at this.
In addition, for the optical record medium that the write-once of using metal or semimetallic oxide compound as recording layer repeatedly reads, the TeOx-Pd recording layer with high reliability proposes in patent documentation 3 and 4.In patent documentation 3 and 4, the ratio of components of TeOx-Pd recording layer changes on the thickness direction of this layer to improve reliability such as storage stability.In addition, comprise that the recording layer of TeOx-Pd also is disclosed in non-patent literature 1 and 2, yet, they only have as improve reliability method about controlling the wherein description of degree of oxidation.
About the material (though it is similar to the present invention) that contains the bismuth oxide compound, they are open in following patent documentation respectively: patent documentation 5 discloses by formula A x(M mO n) y(Fe 2O 3) zAmorphous and the ferromagnetic oxide compound of expression has wherein defined various oxide compound A, the ratio separately of various element M, and x, y and z; Open metal oxide of patent documentation 6 and manufacture method thereof, this metal oxide comprise 50% or more by formula (Bi 2O 3) x(M mO n) y(Fe 2O 3) zThe amorphous phase of expression has wherein defined M mO nM and the ratio separately of n, the ratio separately of x, y and z; Patent documentation 7 openly has by formula (B 2O 3) X(Bi 2O 3) 1-XThe amorphous compound of the composition of expression, the scope of composition x, and quenching method; And patent documentation 8 discloses to have and has consisted of (Bi 2O 3) 1-x(Fe 2O 3) XBismuth-iron amorphous compound material, yet x is expressed as 0.90 〉=x>0.
Yet, these technology relate separately to transmitance and ferromagnetic amorphous oxide material, and they typically are used for the photoelectromagnetism optical record medium, are used for functional device, photoelectromagnetism transmitter, transparent and electrically conductive film, piezoelectric film etc. by magnetic action control light.In addition, these technology that other company provides purpose basically are to relate to the patent of material and/or material manufacturing method, not about being applied to the description of Write-once-read-many optical recording medium.
On the other hand, as making optical record medium one of method of recording layer, sputtering method is arranged.Sputter has extensively been known as a kind of method that forms thin layer under gas phase and has been used to the thin layer that process industry is used in the art.In sputtering method, preparation has the target material as the same composition of the layer that be about to form, and typically, the argon gas ion that glow discharge produces and target material collide the constituting atom with the beating target material, and this atomic deposition form layers thus to the substrate.Oxide compound typically has high-melting-point, thereby is unsuitable for by formation such as method of evaporation, and common use wherein applies the height-frequency-Bo sputtering method of high frequency ripple.
Sputtering method has many effects in its manufacturing processed, and sputter also has advantage on quantum of output.Yet, when formation contains when layer of the mixing material of two or more elements, have the composition situation inequality of target with layer, therefore, must consider the composition of target.Further, there are the structure in many its middle levels and characteristic to depend on the formation of the compound that constitutes target and the situation that changes, therefore must consider this point.
As technology known in the art, for example, patent documentation 9 discloses the target that comprises the Bi oxide compound as the sputtering target that forms dielectric film.Yet patent documentation 9 is not mentioned the target that comprises Fe.Because when the component type changes, the relation between this composition and the formation target compound and the structure of layer and the relationship change between the composition.Therefore, target structure must change, and effect for the reference of the sputtering target that proposes among the present invention is not played in disclosed discovery in the patent documentation 9.
In addition, patent documentation 10 discloses by Bi 3Fe 5O 12The target of making that is used to make thin layer, however this invention is used to make the thin layer with so-called garnet structure, wherein obtains the magneto-optic effect of height, and should invention employing Bi be 3: 5 to 3.5: 4.5 to the ratio of Fe.Therefore it is different from the sputtering target that proposes among the present invention.

Embodiment
Hereinafter, will describe the present invention in detail.
In order to obtain under blueness-optical maser wavelength or shorter wavelength, carrying out the Write-once-read-many optical recording medium of excellent record, following (1)-(3) have been proposed as important problem:
(1) can form little record mark
(2) less interference between record mark
(3) high stability in record mark
When using blueness-laser, must be chosen to be at blueness-wavelength can be by its material that writes down excellently, and does not resemble the situation of wherein using laser under near-infrared wavelength that is used for CD and DVD and red wavelength.
Because the Bi oxide compound is absorbed in the light of blueness-wavelength easily, can expect excellent record.
First aspect according to Write-once-read-many optical recording medium of the present invention comprises substrate, recording layer and reflecting layer, wherein the material by BiOx (0<x<1.5) expression is used for recording layer and wherein records the recording of information mark comprising Bi crystal and/or Bi oxide crystal.In order to produce higher modulated amplitude, require the refringence between record mark and non-recorded part big.When by BiOx (0<x<1.5) thus the material of expression is used for recording layer when record mark forms Bi crystal and/or Bi oxide crystal, change of refractive becomes greatly, and can realize higher modulated amplitude.For example, when non-recorded part is an amorphous and record mark when comprising crystallising part, can obtain higher modulated amplitude.When non-recorded part comprises the Bi oxide compound, by formation Bi-metal simple-substance in record mark, and the precipitation of non-oxidized substance, refringence is bigger, and can obtain the high more modulated amplitude that gets.Used up to now by making the pars amorpha crystallization form the method for record mark, yet, in the present invention, when in oxide compound, writing down, by using following phenomenon can expect higher effect, wherein Ji Lu part becomes the material except that oxide compound and the partial crystallization of this record.Comprise that the crystalline record mark with two or more different crystal-structures can suppress crystal growth and expansion and can form little record mark, can suppress crystal growth because have the mixed crystal of different crystal structure separately.
The change of the recording layer that causes by record will be further described.
By the material of BiOx (0<x<1.5) expression is to be difficult to the metastable state that exists under standard state, yet this state can form recording layer by sputter and realize in optical record medium.When laser beam irradiation to recording layer under metastable state BiOx (0<x<1.5) during with the increase temperature, separate easily becomes Bi and Bi oxide compound, because BiOx attempts to be returned to more steady state.It is believed that some Bi oxide compounds separate the state that no longer becomes oxide compound and become Bi from oxygen this moment in this.Because more stable status is a crystal state, therefore form Bi crystal and Bi oxide crystal, thereby and record mark become state comprising Bi crystal and/or Bi oxide crystal.
One side according to Write-once-read-many optical recording medium of the present invention comprises substrate, recording layer, and reflecting layer, wherein recording layer comprises Bi, O, with M as constituting element, wherein M represents to be selected from Mg, Al, Cr, Mn, Co, Fe, Cu, Zn, Li, Si, Ge, Zr, Ti, Hf, Sn, Mo, V, Nb, Y, at least a element with Ta, and wherein record the recording of information mark and comprise one or more crystal, these one or more crystal are selected from the crystal of the oxide compound of the crystal that is contained in one or more elements in this recording layer and these one or more elements.Write-once-read-many optical recording medium comprise substrate, recording layer and reflecting layer on the other hand, wherein this recording layer comprises that Bi, O and L are as constituting element, and this recording layer comprises that Bi oxide compound and L represent to be selected from least a element of B, P, Ga, As, Se, Tc, Pd, Ag, Sb, Te, W, Re, Os, Ir, Pt, Au, Hg, Tl, Po, At and Cd.
Can comprise bismuth by any state, as bismuth metal, bismuth alloy, bismuth oxide compound, bismuth sulphide, bismuth nitride, bismuth fluorochemical, yet this recording layer preferably includes a kind of bismuth oxide compound.Because the recording layer that contains the bismuth oxide compound can reduce the thermal conductivity of recording layer, obtain height-sensitivity and lower jitter value (jitter value), and make that the imaginary part of refraction complex indexes (complex index) is littler, this recording layer has excellent transparency, and forms several record layers easily.
Preferably, consider and improve stability and thermal conductivity, bismuth exists with the state of oxidation in recording layer with one or more elements that are selected from Mg, Al, Cr, Mn, Co, Fe, Cu, Zn, Li, Si, Ge, Zr, Ti, Hf, Sn, Mo, V, Nb, Y, Ta, B, P, Ga, As, Se, Te, Pd, Ag, Sb, Te, W, Re, Os, Ir, Pt, Au, Hg, Tl, Po, At and Cd, yet they needn't complete oxidation.In other words, when recording layer of the present invention comprised three kinds of elements of bismuth, oxygen and a kind of element (as Mg), it can comprise the oxide compound of bismuth, bismuth oxide compound, element (as Mg) and this element (as Mg).
Be used for making the bismuth that is blended in recording layer or the method for bismuth metal and Bi oxide compound, promptly be used to form the example of the method for the recording layer that bismuth element wherein exists with different states, comprise following method (A)-(C).
(A) use bismuth-oxide target sputter recording layer
(B) use bismuth target and bismuth-oxide target sputter recording layer
(C) use bismuth target sputter recording layer to introduce oxygen simultaneously to recording layer or cosputtering method
When employing method (A), the bismuth complete oxidation in target, this method is used and is depended on the phenomenon that sputtering condition such as vacuum tightness and sputtering power oxygen may lack.
At first, this recording layer wherein is described below and comprises that Bi, M and oxygen are as the write-once that constitutes an element aspect of reading ﹠ recording medium repeatedly.The attention element M represents to be selected from least a element of Mg, Al, Cr, Mn, Co, Fe, Cu, Zn, Li, Si, Ge, Zr, Ti, Hf, Sn, Mo, V, Nb, Y and Ta.
The material that comprises Bi, M and oxygen by use is used for recording layer, can carry out record for the light under blueness-wavelength excellently.Aspect of Write-once-read-many optical recording medium of the present invention, wherein recording layer comprises M, by being formed on the record mark under the oxide crystal state that wherein mixes two or more types, refringence between record mark and non-recorded part is bigger, and can obtain higher modulated amplitude.Further, be present in the recording layer, can obtain bigger effect by making not only the crystal of each autoxidisable substance but also the crystal of element simple substance.Can suppress the crystalline growth because crystal by making different elements or the crystal that has the different crystal structure separately mix, the crystalline record mark that comprises two or more different elements and/or crystal-structure can limit crystal growth and expansion and make it possible to form little record mark.
Record mark preferably includes quaternary Bi.Typically, about the valence state of Bi, trivalent Bi is steady state, yet for obtaining higher modulated amplitude, uses quaternary Bi.Condition according to the oxygen that centers on the Bi atom can make the valence state of Bi become tetravalence.Because change physicals by the valence state that changes Bi, can obtain higher modulated amplitude.
Quaternary Bi examples of compounds comprises BiO 2Typically, having structure is Bi 2O 3The Bi-oxide compound be steady state.Yet, depending on condition, the Bi-oxide compound can be taked as BiO 2Structure.By making recording layer have the crystalline structure that does not use, can obtain higher modulated amplitude with being true to type.
Also now being described below on the one hand of Write-once-read-many optical recording medium of the present invention.In this Write-once-read-many optical recording medium, recording layer comprises that Bi, L, oxygen and Bi oxide compound are as constituting element.Notice that element L represents to be selected from least a element of B, P, Ga, As, Se, Tc, Pd, Ag, Sb, Te, W, Re, Os, Ir, Pt, Au, Hg, Tl, Po, At and Cd.This recording layer comprises that bismuth is as main component.As comprising Bi and O element as the recording layer that constitutes element with adding to, but designed element M.Yet, but about the also designed element L that studies show that of the basic property that can add the formation element that constitutes element to.Element L can be added to as component and comprise that bismuth is as main component and comprise that a reason of the recording layer of Bi oxide compound is in order to reduce thermal conductivity to help forming little record mark.Because thermal conductivity is the value that is attributable to the existence of photon scattering, when particle diameter and crystalline size reduce, as atomic time of a plurality of constituent materials with when the nucleidic mass difference of composed atom is big etc., thermal conductivity can reduce.Therefore,, element L comprises bismuth as main component and comprise in the recording layer of Bi oxide compound, may command thermal conductivity and improve the high density recording performance by being added as component.
Further, comprising bismuth as main component and further comprise in the recording layer of bismuth oxide compound, the crystallization of bismuth oxide compound and bismuth by recorded information, however can be by the size of element L control crystal and crystalline particle.Therefore, element L can controlling recording crystal in the part and crystalline particle size and improve record greatly and reproduce performance as shaking.This is to add element L another reason as component to recording layer.
Consider thermal conductivity, can be used as component and add requirement that the element L in the recording layer will bear to seldom, except the degree of difficulty of the stability of simple requirement such as raw material and manufacturing.Yet the present inventor finds the reliability of recording layer, i.e. reproduction stability and storage stability depend on selected element L basically and change, and have the requirement of being born by element L clearly for reliability.
That is, as to will adding the result of a large amount of detections of requirement of the element L of recording layer to as component, the present inventor finds following requirement (I) or (II) is effective:
(I) having Pauling electronegativity value (Pauling ' s electronegativity value) is 1,80 or bigger element.
(II) having Pauling electronegativity value is 1.65 or the standard enthalpy of formation Δ H of bigger and oxide compound f 0For-1000 (kJ/mol) or bigger element, do not comprise transition metal.
Satisfied by using (I) or element L (II), the Write-once-read-many optical recording medium that can obtain to have excellent record and reproduction performance (as shake) and high reliability.
Hereinafter, will explain requirement (I) and (II) in detail.
Comprise that bismuth mainly is that carrying out or the change of the state of oxidation such as change of valence state etc. by oxidation cause as the main component that constitutes element and the reliability degradation that comprises the recording layer of bismuth oxide compound.The standard enthalpy of formation of Pauling electronegativity value and oxide compound " Δ H f 0" be important really as the value of the physicals of element L, because the change of the carrying out of oxidation and the state of oxidation is easy to cause the degradation of reliability.In order fully to improve the reliability of optical record medium, at first, preferred select to have Pauling electronegativity value be 1.80 or bigger element as element L.This is because oxidation is unlikely carried out on the element with high Pauling electronegativity value, and in order to ensure satisfied reliability, have Pauling electronegativity value and be 1.80 or bigger element be effective.The standard enthalpy of formation of oxide compound " Δ H f 0" can get any value, condition is that Pauling electronegativity value is 1.80 or bigger.
Have electronegativity and be 1.80 or the example of bigger element L comprise B, Si, P, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Ga, Ge, As, Se, Mo, Tc, Ru, Rh, Pd, Ag, Sn, Sb, Te, W, Re, Os, Ir, Pt, Au, Hg, Tl, Pb, Po and At.
To sketch electronegativity herein.
Electronegativity is that expression is present in the scale that atom in the molecule can attract the power of electronics.The mode of determining the electronegativity value comprises Pauling electronegativity, William Mulliken electronegativity (Mulliken ' s electronegativity) and Allred-Rochow electronegativity.Among the present invention, determine the appropriateness of element L by using the Pauling electronegativity.
The bound energy E (AB) that the Pauling electronegativity has defined molecule A and B is respectively E (AA) and E (BB) greater than molecule AA and molecule BB[] the mean value of bound energy, and the difference between it is at each atomic electronegativity (X A, X B) between difference square.That is, it is expressed from the next:
E(AB)-[E(AA)+E(BB)]/2=96.48(X A-X B) 2 ....(1)
In the Pauling electronegativity, this equation comprises gain factor 96.48 (1eV=96.48kJmol -1), because the electronegativity value uses ev to determine.
Because electronegativity depends on predetermined element and which kind of valence state to introduce molecule with and change, when determining electronegativity in the present invention, use to give a definition.
That is, as follows, this value defined is the Pauling electronegativity value of element when following each family's element adopts following valence state respectively:
Element in 1 family adopts unit price; Element in 2 families adopts divalence; Element in 3 families adopts trivalent; 4 families element in 10 families adopts divalence; Element in 11 families adopts unit price; Element in 12 families adopts divalence; Element in 13 families adopts trivalent; Element in 14 families adopts tetravalence; Element in 15 families adopts trivalent; Element in 16 families adopts divalence; Element in 17 families adopts unit price; Element in 18 families adopts zeroth order.
For above-mentioned mention have electronegativity 1.80 or bigger element separately, be B (2.04) in the Pauling electronegativity value separately of the present invention's definition, Si (1.90), P (2.19), Fe (1.83), Co (1.88), Ni (1.91), Cu (1.90), Ga (1.81), Ge (2.01), As (2.18), Se (2.55), Mo (2.16), Tc (1.90), Ru (2.20), Rh (2.28), Pd (2.20), Ag (1.93), Sn (1.96), Sb (2.05), Te (2.10), W (2.36), Re (1.90), Os (2.20), Ir (2.20), Pt (2.28), Au (2.54), Hg (2.00), Tl (2.04), Pb (2.33), Po (2.00), and At (2.20).
These elements can join recording layer as constituting element with two or more combination.
Further, even the present inventor finds that Pauling electronegativity value less than 1.80, has the standard enthalpy of formation Δ H of the oxide compound of Pauling electronegativity value 1.65 or bigger and this element f 0For-1000 (kJ/mol) or bigger element can be guaranteed satisfied reliability.This requires effective reason is because of having big oxide compound standard enthalpy of formation Δ H when element f 0During value, even to a certain extent little this element of Pauling electronegativity value also is difficult to form its oxide compound.
Among the present invention, when definite Pauling electronegativity value, determines with each valence state that is fixed to each family's element, and when settling the standard Enthalpies of Formation Δ H f 0The definition that Shi Yingyong is identical.
That is, this value defined is the standard enthalpy of formation Δ H of element when oxide compound constitutes with the valence state separately of following each family's element f 0
That is, the element in 1 family adopts unit price; Element in 2 families adopts divalence; Element in 3 families adopts trivalent; 4 families element in 10 families adopts divalence; Element in 11 families adopts unit price; Element in 12 families adopts divalence; Element in 13 families adopts trivalent; Element in 14 families adopts tetravalence; Element in 15 families adopts trivalent; Element in 16 families adopts divalence; Element in 17 families adopts unit price; Element in 18 families adopts zeroth order.Yet, under the situation of transition metal, can not easily determine the standard enthalpy of formation Δ H of its oxide compound f 0, because it forms oxide compound with various valence states.Typically, the valence state of element that forms its oxide compound is high more, the standard enthalpy of formation Δ H of this oxide compound f 0Low more.
In other words, it is believed that under the situation of transition metal, easily form its oxide compound or multiple oxide compound because can form oxide compound with various valence states, and therefore among the present invention transition metal be not preferably used as element L.
For example, because V (vanadium) adopts divalence, the standard enthalpy of formation Δ H of V (vanadium) oxide compound f 0The value that adopts is the standard enthalpy of formation Δ H of VO f 0=-431 (kJmol -1), and it falls into the requirement (II) of the present invention to element L.Yet V (vanadium) also forms oxide compound such as V easily 2O 3(trivalent), V 2O 4(tetravalence), V 2O 5(pentavalent).The Δ H of these oxide compounds f 0Value is respectively V 2O 3(1,218kJmol -1), V 2O 4(1,424kJmol -1), V 2O 5(1,550kJmol -1), and these values do not fall into the requirement (II) of the present invention to element L.That is, suppose that V-arrangement becomes almost only be that the oxide compound of divalence, V (vanadium) fall into requirement of the present invention (I) and (II), yet V (vanadium) forms oxides, divalent oxide compound in addition easily, and this oxide compound is easy to oxidizedly, promptly becomes more stable status.Therefore, these oxide compounds are excluded out the preferred element L of the present invention.
The explanation of this eliminating is not clearly described in the requirement to element L in the present invention with " not comprising transition metal ".
To sketch standard enthalpy of formation Δ H herein, f 0
Typically, chemical reaction is represented by following chemical equation (2):
H 2(gas)+(1/2) O 2(gas)=H 2O (liquid) .... (2)
The chemical equation left side is called initial system, and its right side is called product.Be attached to the preceding coefficient of molecule and be called stoichiometric coefficient.
The heat of the turnover relevant with the chemical reaction of this system is called reaction heat under the steady temperature, and the reaction heat under constant voltage is called heat of reaction at constant pressure.
Under a lot of situations, under typical laboratory condition, reaction heat is measured under constant voltage, therefore, typically uses heat of reaction at constant pressure.Heat of reaction at constant pressure equals poor " the Δ H " of the enthalpy between product and initial system.
The reaction that is expressed as Δ H>0 is called thermo-negative reaction, and the reaction that is expressed as Δ H<0 is called thermopositive reaction.
Form being called of reaction heat that the reaction of compound produces by the chemical element of compound and generate heat or Enthalpies of Formation.Under standard conditions, form the reaction heat that the reaction of one mole compound produces and be called standard enthalpy of formation from the chemical element of this compound.Under standard conditions, standard enthalpy of formation is marked with specified temperature (typically being 298K), and at 0.1M Pa or be similar under the 1 atmospheric pressure, and standard enthalpy of formation is by symbol Δ H f 0Expression.Under standard conditions, the enthalpy of stipulating each chemical element is zero.
Therefore, we can say that the standard enthalpy of formation value negative value more little or this standard enthalpy of formation of oxide compound of element is big more, this oxide compound is stable more and this element is oxidized easily.
The concrete value record of standard enthalpy of formation exists, and for example, in " Electrochemistry Handbook Vol.5 " (Denki-kagaku Binran), it is by The Electrochemistry Society of Japan, and Maruzen edits).
Because standard enthalpy of formation Δ H f 0Depend on predetermined element and which kind of valence state to introduce molecule with and change, when the standard enthalpy of formation of the oxide compound of each element of determining among the present invention, use above-mentioned requirements to form its oxide compound.
Have Pauling electronegativity value 1.65 or bigger and its oxide compound standard enthalpy of formation Δ H f 0Be-1,000 (kJ/mol -1) or the example of bigger element comprise Zn, Cd and In.For the Pauling electronegativity value of the definition according to the present invention, these elements are defined as follows respectively: Zn (1.65), Cd (1.69) and In (1.78).Standard enthalpy of formation Δ H for definition according to the present invention f 0, they are defined as follows respectively: Zn (348kJmol -1), Cd (258kJmol -1) and In (925kJmol -1).

Further, consider the storage stability that improves recording layer, preferably in recording layer, add B, P, Ga, Se, Pd, Ag, Sb, Te, W, Pt and Au as element L.The improvement of storage stability is caused by the following fact probably: by strengthening that from atom to atom bonding force is difficult to break the crystalline structure that once forms or as the atom of different size (side-by-side) when existing shoulder to shoulder, because the atom of reduced size can be present in the lattice of large-size atom crystalline structure is stablized.Especially, element such as B and Pd are attached to oxygen, and when Bi and O coexistence stable amorphous structure effectively.Therefore the structure of stable crystal, this causes the repeatedly improvement of the storage stability of reading ﹠ recording medium of this write-once.

Especially, wherein use and comprise and be selected from BiFeO 3, Bi 25FeO 40, and Bi 36Fe 2O 57One or more form the BiFeO layer as sputtering targets of main component and represent excellent performance as the optical record medium of recording layer.BiFeO 3, Bi 25FeO 40, and Bi 36Fe 2O 57Existence can check by the mode of X-ray diffraction.For source of radiation, use Cu to be 5 °-60 ° and measure with 2 θ angles of X-ray diffractometer.The term main component is meant and contains high-content or extra best best % in compound.Typically, the material that represents the maximum diffraction peak as the result of X-ray diffraction analysis can be defined as main component, yet this content can be not proportional with the diffraction peak scale.Sputtering target comprises and is selected from BiFeO 3, Bi 25FeO 40, and Bi 36Fe 2O 57Two or more elements be meant that as the situation of main component identical and these two or more compounds contents of the content separately of these two or more compounds are higher than other components contents.
Sputtering target preferably includes Bi 2O 3And/or Fe 2O 3Have and use the sputtering target that comprises these compounds to form the BiFeO layer represents excellence as the optical record medium of recording layer performance.Bi 2O 3And/or Fe 2O 3Existence can detect by the mode of X-ray diffraction.For source of radiation, use Cu at 2 θ angles to be 5 °-60 ° and measure down.
Be used for determining BiFeO 3, Bi 25FeO 40, Bi 36Fe 2O 57, and Bi 2O 3, and Fe 2O 3The X-ray diffraction analysis of composition in, when expectation 2 θ angles to diffraction peak to be detected were defined as θ 1, the material that in fact has diffraction peak in θ 1 ± 1 degree scope was defined as being included in the above-claimed cpd.
In X-ray diffraction analysis, lattice parameter changes and is depending on that reason as the internal stress of measuring temperature, layer, the X ray wavelength error of measurement and the angle place of the appearance diffraction peak that composition is offset deviation takes place.For known material, what angle detecting diffraction peak in can know by using ASTM (American Society for Testing and Material) card and JCPDS retrieval.When analytic sample when identifying component, be extensive use of the chart of ASTM card and JCPDS card.Term JCPDS represents Joint Committee on Powder Diffraction Standards, and the figure of the X-ray diffraction pattern that its tissue of serving as reasons InternationalCenter for Diffraction Data by name provides, and the chart of having stored many reference material diffraction patterns is used for retrieval.Chart with the x-ray diffraction pattern master drawing of sample of unknown component and reference material relatively, and definite x-ray diffraction pattern master drawing is corresponding with which kind of reference material or be closely related.By this comparison, identify sample material.Using the authentication method of JCPDS card figure is widely used in the world method, as the description of X-ray Diffraction Analysis Rules in X-ray Diffraction Analysis Rules and the Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS) and shown in the X-ray Diffraction Analysis Ceramics Basic Structure 3 that is edited by Tokyo Institute ofTechnology.In measurement, check that the figure of X-ray diffraction pattern with unknown component material and which kind of reference material is corresponding or be closely related definite then this material.
nλ=2d sinθ
In above-mentioned equation, n represents positive integer, and λ represents wavelength, and d represents the distance of crystal face and the supplementary angle that θ represents grazing angle or input angle.
Because be suitable for the Bragg rule, diffraction peak also appears on the position of the integral multiple that the higher angular side n of 2 θ represents.Can identify material by when analyzing, analyzing the peak position of representing by integral multiple based on the diffraction peak of 2 θ.As above-mentioned, in X-ray diffraction analysis, lattice parameter changes, with since measure temperature, layer internal stress, measurement the X ray wavelength error and form the angle place that diffraction peak appears in skew etc. deviation take place, therefore, when peak that material has is near the angle that the known substance diffraction peak occurs, can determine that this material is corresponding to the known substance with this diffraction peak.
For the diffraction peak deviation, for example, research BiFeO 3The peak of 2 θ that standard map (reference code 20-0169) finds=22.491 degree.The measuring result of four sputtering targets observing in the same manner respectively and make under the same conditions.BiFeO 3The 2 θ number of degrees of normal data be 22.491 °.On the other hand, to show slight deviation respectively be 22.380 °, 22.500 °, 22.420 ° and 22.420 ° to these targets.When replicate measurement, studies show that the deviation of spending approximately ± 1 is in the limit of error of measuring.Therefore, though observe ± 1 the degree diffraction peak angle in deviation, also can be defined as known peak.For example, when material have from 22.491 ° ± 1 the degree deviation the peak time, the BiFeO that can be defined as describing among the present invention 3Be included in this material.Comprise Bi, Fe and O and have at the sputtering target of the diffraction peak at 22.380≤2 θ≤22.500 places effective especially on record performance.
Similarly, according to Bi 36Fe 2O 57Normal data, Bi 36Fe 2O 57Have peak 2 θ=27.681 degree.Measure above-mentioned four targets, the peak of finding them is at 27.65 °, 27.64 °, 27.76 ° and 27.67 °.
According to Bi 25FeO 40Normal data, its peak is at 2 θ=27.683 degree.Measure this four targets, the peak of finding them is respectively at 27.66 °, 27.64 °, 27.76 ° and 27.68 °.
Because in replicate measurement, cause the deviation of degree approximately ± 1, think in 2 θ of any of these material ± 1 degree deviation falls in the measuring error scope.
Preferably, sputtering target does not further comprise Bi 2Fe 4O 9Along with Bi content increases, Bi 2Fe 4O 9Content tend to reduce.Can detect Bi by the X-ray diffraction mode 2Fe 4O 9Existence.For source of radiation, using Cu is 5 ° of-60 ° of measurements with 2 θ angles of X-ray diffractometer.Find to use and wherein discerned Bi by the X-ray diffraction mode 2Fe 4O 9The optical record medium that the sputtering target formation BiFeO layer that exists is used for recording layer does not represent record performance satisfactorily and is not suitable for high density recording.
