When standard electric potential difference (potential difference) is larger, there is electrolytic etching in metal electrode.In addition, being sometimes formed at the bottom of substrate surface
There is the phase counterdiffusion of atom between metal electrode, so as to the electrical characteristics of metal electrode are deteriorated.Therefore, typically in metal
The two sides of electrode is respectively formed the protecting film (barrier layer) for protecting metal electrode.In existing liquid crystal panel, generally use
Al-Nd systems alloy as metal electrode, and using Mo-Nb systems alloy as protecting film.
With regard to the metal electrode used in this liquid crystal panel, protecting film and for forming their material, one
There are various motions since straight.
For example, Patent Document 1 discloses such thin film formation sputtering target:It contains 2~50 atom %'s altogether
Selected from one of V and Nb or both, balance of Mo and inevitable impurity, and its relative density is more than 95%.
Describe in the publication:During using the Mo alloys targets containing Nb or V, can obtain without harmful Cr, resistance
The high metallic film of low and corrosion resistance.
In addition, Patent Document 2 discloses such sputtering target material:Its using Mo as main body, containing 0.5~50 atom %

Describe in the publication:By using this target, it is possible to obtain the thin magnetic film of the high characteristic of very high purity.
In addition, disclosing such method in non-patent literature 1:Using Ar+O2 mixed gas to by Cu-2 weight %
The target that Zr alloys, Cu-1 weight %Mo alloy or Cu-0.7 weight %Mg alloy are constituted is sputtered.
Describe in the publication:By adopting the method, can the layer (metal electrode) that is made up of Cu based materials with
Interface between bottom forms the barrier layer (oxide layer) good with the adhesion of bottom.
In addition, Patent Document 5 discloses such sputtering target:It is not the protecting film target of metal electrode, its by
Ni-7.5 mass %Ti-4~40 mass %Cu alloy is constituted, and can be used to form the electrode of chip resister.
Describe in the publication:When adding Cu in Ni-Ti alloys, because saturation magnetization diminishes, therefore can be with
Obtain long-life target.
In addition, Patent Document 6 discloses such nickel alloy sputtering target for forming barrier layer:It is not metal electricity
The protecting film target of pole, its by

With the maximization of liquid crystal panel, people's demand material lower than the resistance of Al based material.In addition, matching somebody with somebody in Al systems
Mo-Nb systems alloy used in the protecting film of line is expensive, becomes the obstacle of liquid crystal panel cost degradation.On the other hand, Cu
Based material is lower than the resistance of Al based material, expects the low resistance wiring material of Al based materials as an alternative.
As the forming method of the metal electrode and Cu electrode protective membranes for having used Cu based materials, such as in non-patent literature 1
As disclosed, it is known in Ar+O2The target formed by Cu systems alloy is sputtered method under atmosphere.The document is remembered
The method of load has the advantage that:Can be while forming Cu electrodes and protecting film by once sputtering.
But, in Ar+O2Reactive sputtering under atmosphere increases the resistance of Cu electrode films itself, causes deterioration in characteristics.
Further, since O2Easily it is captured in vacuum equipment room, therefore, it is difficult to control oxygen partial pressure, uneven so as to become product quality
The reason for.
In addition, in general, metal electrode and protecting film are formed by such method:It is being formed with the base of transparency electrode
Protecting film and electrode layer are formed in plate whole surface, and pattern is formed with predetermined shape.When the cost of liquid crystal panel is reduced,
It is preferred that forming pattern using wet etching.Further, in order to accurately form pattern with wet etching, preferably
It is that the etch-rate of protecting film and electrode layer is of substantially equal.
But, using in metal electrode and protecting film that method disclosed in non-patent literature 1 is obtained, both etchings are fast
Rate difference is larger, therefore there is a problem that accurately forming pattern.
In addition, in the case of liquid crystal panel, Cu electrode protective membranes are formed on the transparency electrode being made up of ITO.Cause
This, it is desirable to Cu electrode protective membranes have high adhesion with ITO.In addition, in order to effectively be sputtered, it is desirable to the saturating magnetic of target
Rate is low.But, so far, still nobody proposes all possess the Cu electrode protective membranes target of these conditions and make simultaneously
The example of the stack membrane manufactured with this target.
