It it is usually 1 μm~100 μm in the case of plate, cylinder type, preferably for the thickness of metal layer In the range of being 10 μm~100 μm, more preferably 5 μm~50 μm.
The welding material that can be used for metallizing is, for example, comprising selected from by indium (In), tin (Sn), zinc (Zn), lead (Pb), silver (Ag), the material etc. of the metal in the group of copper (Cu), bismuth (Bi), cadmium (Cd) and antimony (Sb) composition or its alloy, more specifically, In, In-Sn, Sn-Zn, Sn-Zn-In, In-Ag, Sn-Pb-Ag, Sn-Bi, Sn-Ag-Cu, Pb-Sn, Pb-Ag, Zn- can be enumerated Cd, Pb-Sn-Sb, Pb-Sn-Cd, Pb-Sn-In, Bi-Sn-Sb etc..The appropriate selection material high with target or supporting member compatibility Material.
In the present invention, for example, as shown in the skeleton diagram of Fig. 1, after having used sputtering target in sputtering, by target from sputtering target It detaches (stripping).
The method that target is detached with supporting member is not particularly limited.For example, can on one side pair can be by above-mentioned engagement material The bonding layer (or binder course) that material is formed is heated (such as 180 DEG C~300 DEG C), bonding layer is made to be softened or melted, one side root Target is detached from sputtering target according to needing physically to destroy bonding layer.
In the case where target is plate, this side that (or engagement) is combined with supporting member of target after isolation On face (hereinafter, otherwise referred to as " faying face " or " joint surface "), usually attachment remains grafting material.Use scraper (example Such as, the scraper of organosilicon) etc. accompanying grafting material is wiped off, it is also difficult to the grafting material is removed completely.Especially It is difficult to remove the metal layer combined with target.Would generally residual thickness be several μm or so metal layer and thickness be 50 μ The solder layer of m~200 μm or so.Sometimes also attachment remains grafting material in the sputter face of target.As its reason, such as Following reasons can be enumerated:When detaching target, the grafting material of melting is attached to sputter face.As other reasons, can enumerate Following reasons:It is preserved since the target after separation being stacked on one another, thus faying face is contacted with sputter face, faying face Grafting material is attached to sputter face.
In the case where target is cylinder type, it can be used grafting material by the periphery of cylinder type target and cylindric bushing pipe Portion combines, and therefore, with plate target above-mentioned the case where is same, and grafting material is attached to the faying face (inner circumferential of the target after separation Portion), the grafting material including metal layer can not be removed completely.Sometimes also attachment remains in the sputter face of target Grafting material.It may also be mixed into as impurity sometimes from the ingredient of bushing pipe.Therefore, it for cylinder type target, can also be directed to The cleaning method is applied as the peripheral part of sputter face, inner peripheral portion.
Whether there are grafting materials about adhering on target after isolation, such as can pass through energy dispersion type X-ray Fluorescence analysis (EDXRF:Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Analysis) confirm.
It should be noted that there is also the feelings that metallic element is spread from supporting member to target (especially near joint surface) Condition.For such metallic element, can also confirm likewise by EDXRF.In addition, Wavelength dispersion type x ray can also be used Fluorescence analysis (WDXRF:Wavelength Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Analysis), electron probe it is micro- Analyze (EPMA:Electron Probe Micro Analysis), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES:Auger Electron Spectroscopy), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS:X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy), flight when Between type secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS:Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry), Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry method (LA-ICP-MS:Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry), X-ray diffraction method (XRD:X-ray Diffraction Analysis) etc. analyses side Method confirms the impurity from grafting material, supporting member, but is examined from the range of the simplicity of analysis, analyst coverage Consider, confirms preferably by EDXRF, WDXRF.
Herein, if directly manufacturing ingot casting (hereinafter, otherwise referred to as using the target after the separation for being attached with grafting material " slab " or " ingot bar ") and target is manufactured by the ingot casting, then it can be mixed into the impurity of the ingredient from accompanying grafting material. In addition, the case where spreading from supporting member to target there is also metallic element and being mixed into as impurity, such metallic element has When be also mixed into ingot casting as impurity.
In the present invention, by target after sputtering target separation, by the face at least remaining grafting material to the attachment of target Injection water cleans target, can accompanying grafting material be removed (Fig. 1) from target.It should be noted that by the cleaning, Also the metal layer combined with target can be removed.
The injection method of water is not particularly limited, preferably injection water under the following conditions.

It is preferable to use the nozzle heads of rotary (or can rotate) with multiple jet ports (or nozzle) to come for the injection of water It carries out.The shape of nozzle head is not particularly limited, the face of this side towards target of nozzle head (or this side of setting nozzle Face) shape be, for example, the polygons such as triangle, quadrangle, circle, ellipse, due to making its rotation carry out injection water, thus The regular polygons such as preferably circular and square, more preferably circular.It is handled on the joint surface to plate target In the case of, it is preferable to use can be jet port can be installed in a manner of the direction injection water substantially parallel with the rotary shaft of nozzle head Nozzle head.In the case where the joint surface (inner peripheral portion) to cylinder type target is handled, it is preferable to use can with can along with nozzle The mode of the rotary shaft generally perpendicular direction injection water of head installs the nozzle head of jet port.
The number (or number of nozzle) for the jet port being arranged in 1 nozzle head is not particularly limited, for example, 1 with On, preferably 1~15, more preferably 3~10.Number of nozzle is suitably determined according to the size of nozzle head. By increasing number of nozzle, it can prevent grafting material etc. from not reamed and being remained, or prevent processing time elongated.Number of nozzle When more, total spray volume increases, therefore, it is necessary to larger and expensive pump, the case where there are cost of equipment raisings.In nozzle head In when being provided with multiple jet ports, jet port can be configured to the same path position in nozzle head, can also be configured in reducing position.Separately Outside, can also be the combination of same diameter configuration, reducing configuration.
The size (nozzle diameter) of jet port is, for example, 0.1mm or more, preferably 0.15mm~0.50mm, more preferably 0.2mm~0.35mm.The identical jet port of diameter nozzle head can be installed on, also the different jet port of diameter peace can be combined Loaded on nozzle head.
The spray volume (or water) of water changes according to the pressure of the water of injection, the difference of the size of jet port, water Spray volume it is bigger, then cleaning performance is better.Total spray volume of the water sprayed from all jet ports of 1 nozzle head is, for example, 2.0L/min or more, preferably 2.0L/min~42L/min, more preferably 5.0L/min~30L/min, further preferably 5.0L/min~20L/min.
The injection of water preferably by being maintained a certain distance on one side the process face relative to target, while with certain speed In the horizontal direction by band-like (threadiness) carry out it is mobile in a manner of carry out.For the injection of water, can same position repeatedly Carry out for several times, preferably 1 time~3 times.Alternatively, when the case where the processing width of 1 water injection is less than target width, it can be with (overlapping (overlap)), which is locally repeated, with threadiness carrys out injection water.
The movement speed of nozzle head is, for example, 100mm/min or more, preferably 500mm/min~7000mm/min, more excellent It is selected as 900mm/min~5000mm/min.By increasing movement speed, processing time can be shortened.It, can by reducing movement speed Obtain sufficient cleaning performance.
The rotary speed of nozzle head is, for example, 500min-1More than, preferably 500min-1~4000min-1, more preferably 900min-1~2500min-1.By increasing rotary speed, according to the number of nozzle, can wash by water to target entire surface to prevent Grafting material etc. is not reamed and is remained.If reducing rotary speed, impact when colliding target becomes larger, therefore, can be filled The cleaning performance divided.
The distance between nozzle head and target (or nozzle distance) are, for example, 10mm or more, preferably 15mm~100mm, more Preferably 20mm~70mm.By increasing distance to a certain extent, the influence for colliding the water to rebound after target can be prevented, as a result, Sufficient cleaning performance can be obtained.By reducing distance to a certain extent, to make impact when collision target become larger, therefore, Sufficient cleaning performance can be obtained.
It for the water of injection, is not particularly limited, as long as the impurity not comprising particle shape as meeting plug nozzle Or dust etc., the use of such as tap water, pure water can be enumerated.In addition, filter can be arranged between pump and nozzle, pass through The filter and injection water.
The injection direction of water is not particularly limited, as long as the angle of water collision target can be made, it can be relative to target Material is vertical, can also be tilted relative to target.For example, angle (central shaft of jet port and the hanging down perpendicular to target of jet port Angle formed by line) be 0 °~60 °, preferably 0 °~45 °, more preferably 5 °~45 °, further preferably 5 °~30 °, more into one Preferably 8 °~30 °, particularly preferably 10 °~25 ° of step.From direction injection water inclined relative to target, by It is rotated in nozzle head, thus compared with vertical the case where spraying, processing width becomes larger.Having collided the water to target will not be detained In process face, but outside is escaped into, therefore also it can be expected that the raising of cleaning performance.If from nozzle head obliquely injection water, Also it can implement the cleaning of side in the state of so that nozzle head is located above target.
By the way that the injection direction of water to be set in above-mentioned range, impact when can prevent from colliding target is reduced, and can be obtained To sufficient cleaning performance.In addition, the processing of the processing on joint surface, the processing of sputter face, side about target, need not weigh New setting target or the position for changing nozzle head, therefore processing time can be shortened.Multiple jet ports are provided in nozzle head When, the angle of each nozzle can be the same or different.For the angle of each jet port, as expected processing is wide It spends and to be not in by being suitably determined in a manner of remaining part not in contact with not reamed caused by water.
For former nozzle head, in order to shorten the processing time of every 1 target, multiple nozzle heads can be made to carry out simultaneously Scanning.
Above to having used revolving nozzle head the case where, is illustrated, but the case where target can be made to rotate Under or using can with it is linear come injection water flat fire type nozzle head in the case of, also can be high using fixed nozzle head Effect ground cleaning target.
If being sufficiently carried out the behaviour for removing grafting material, metal layer from the joint surface of used target by cleaning Make, then the surface of target itself can also be reamed.At this point, the surface of target itself can be reamed such as 5 μm in a thickness direction Above, preferably 10 μm or more 1000 μm or less, preferably 20 μm or more 750 μm or less, more preferable 50 μm or more 500 μm hereinafter, should Surface after cleaning can form pear skin shape (Japanese:Pears ground shape).Also it can be formed corresponding with the action of nozzle head when cleaning all The cutter trade (squamous, helical form etc.) of phase property.In the case where forming pear skin shape, the wavelength 300nm on the surface after cleaning~ Normal reflection rate at 1500nm is usually 1.0% hereinafter, in order to confirm that the impurity from grafting material and supporting member is abundant It removes, preferably 0.7% or less.
