TABLE 1
In the table, the density of the target is measured by an Archimedes drainage method; measuring the purity of the target material by a GDMS method; and observing whether the microstructure has pores or not by combining with a scanning electron microscope photograph of the surface of the target.
As can be seen from table 1: the chromium-silicon alloy sputtering target material obtained in the examples 1-6 has excellent performance, the density is more than or equal to 99%, the cracking phenomenon is avoided, and the microstructure is uniform and bubble-free; comparative examples 1-4 show that unreasonable setting of sintering temperature and pressing pressure in the vacuum hot-pressed sintering treatment can bring adverse effects to the target performance; comparative example 5 the pressurizing process was changed to 1 pressurizing stage on the basis of example 1, resulting in a significant decrease in the density of the target, and a certain number of air holes were present in the microstructure; comparative example 6 the heating process and the pressurizing process were performed simultaneously on the basis of example 1, i.e., the first heat-preserving treatment and the second heat-preserving treatment were removed, and the overall properties of the target material were also lowered, affecting the microstructure uniformity thereof.
Therefore, the sintering temperature and the pressing pressure of the vacuum hot-pressing sintering treatment are reasonably controlled, the compactness of the obtained chromium-silicon alloy sputtering target material is increased to more than 99%, the first heat preservation treatment, the second heat preservation treatment and the heat preservation and pressure maintaining treatment are sequentially carried out, the pressurizing process of the heat preservation and pressure maintaining treatment is divided into at least 2 pressurizing stages, the uniformity and the sputtering stability of crystal grains in the target material are further improved, the cracking phenomenon of the target material is avoided, and the microstructure is uniform and has no air holes.
