Description

Preparation method of fine-grain high-purity nickel target material
Technical Field
The invention relates to a preparation method of a fine-grain high-purity nickel target material, belonging to the technical field of nickel target materials.
Background
With the development of industrial technology, thin film materials are widely applied in the fields of new energy, semiconductors and the like, and have high requirements on the quality of the thin film materials. Sputtering targets are a key material for forming thin films, and thus the technology for preparing targets with high quality requirements is becoming more important.
To obtain a high quality sputtered film, strict control is required on both the target purity and the grain size. In the aspect of purity, the target material purity can be applied to actual production only when the target material purity reaches more than 99.99 percent, because particles are formed on a wafer in the magnetron sputtering process when the impurity content in the target material is high, irreversible influence is caused on the quality of a film, and the service performance is seriously influenced. In terms of grain size: the grain size is below 100 μm to meet the requirement of high quality sputtering target, so repeated plastic deformation, heat treatment and other processes are required to accurately control the grain size. When the crystal grain of the target material is smaller, the higher the magnetron sputtering rate is, the better the quality of the film obtained by sputtering deposition is.
The two indexes of the material purity and the grain size are difficult to meet simultaneously in production, because the higher the purity of the pure metal material is, the fewer mechanisms for hindering the growth of grains are, the probability of heterogeneous nucleation is reduced in the metal solidification process, the pinning effect in the grain growth is weakened, and at the moment, the grains are easy to grow. Therefore, the method improves the purity of the target material and simultaneously realizes grain refinement, is the key for improving the sputtering performance and improving the coating quality, and is also the research focus of the research and development of the nickel-based target material at present.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention provides a preparation method of a fine-grain high-purity nickel target material aiming at the problem that the purity and the grain size are difficult to meet simultaneously in the preparation of the nickel target material.
A preparation method of a fine-grain high-purity nickel target material comprises the following specific steps:
(1) Vacuum smelting high-purity nickel plate to vacuum degree of 1 × 10 0 When Pa is needed, introducing high-purity hydrogen, melting the hydrogen into a nickel melt in the hydrogen atmosphere, carrying out constant-temperature induction melting for 10-20 min to fully dissolve the hydrogen into the nickel melt, and casting to obtain a nickel ingot;
(2) Milling the surface of a nickel ingot, and then cold-rolling to obtain a cold-rolled nickel plate, wherein the total rolling deformation is 50-60%;
(3) And (3) uniformly heating the cold-rolled nickel plate to the temperature of 450-650 ℃, annealing for 0.5-2 h, and air cooling to room temperature to obtain the fine-grained high-purity nickel target material.
The purity of the high-purity nickel plate in the step (1) is not lower than 99.99%;
the purity of the high-purity hydrogen in the step (1) is not lower than 99.999 percent;
the pressure of the hydrogen atmosphere in the step (1) is 5-20 KPa.
And (2) continuously carrying out constant-temperature induction melting in the casting process in the step (1), wherein the casting speed is 0.1-0.5 kg/s.
The cold rolling thickness deformation amount of the step (2) is 5-15%.
The constant temperature rise rate in the step (3) is 1-10 ℃/min.
The preparation principle of the fine-grain high-purity nickel target material is as follows: when pure nickel is smelted under the mixed hydrogen atmosphere, along with the increase of hydrogen partial pressure and the extension of heat preservation time, a part of hydrogen can be decomposed into hydrogen atoms, and the hydrogen atoms have extremely high reducibility and can react with impurities such as oxygen, carbon, sulfur and the like on the surface and in the metal to form gas and discharge the gas out of a melt, so that the effect of purifying the metal is achieved; hydrogen plays a certain role in dislocation, firstly, the hydrogen which is dissolved in nickel in a solid mode can reduce dislocation activation energy in the plastic deformation process, secondly, the hydrogen energy and impurity atoms form compound air mass, and the pinning effect of the impurity atoms on the dislocation is reduced, so that the starting of the dislocation is easier; the recrystallization process is accelerated, thereby obtaining the effect of grain refinement.
The beneficial effects of the invention are:
(1) The method has the advantages that the high-purity nickel is placed in the hydrogen atmosphere for induction melting, so that the non-metallic impurities in the melt can be effectively removed, particularly, the oxygen content is lower than 3ppm, and a nickel ingot with higher purity is obtained;
(2) The hydrogen dissolved in the nickel can reduce dislocation activation energy in the plastic deformation process, can obviously improve the plastic capability of the pure nickel, greatly relieves the edge crack phenomenon in the cold rolling process, and is easier to obtain fine and uniform recrystallized grains.
