Description

Doped lithium niobate target material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of ceramic materials, in particular to a doped lithium niobate target material, a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
In the preparation of the inorganic all-solid-state electrochromic device, the transparent conductive substrate, the electrochromic layer, the ion storage layer and the like are prepared by direct-current magnetron sputtering, and the technology is mature. The ion conductor layer has two technical schemes: sputtering a tantalum oxide film without lithium ions, sputtering by using a metal lithium target material after sputtering the tantalum oxide film, and performing heat treatment to finish the injection of lithium ions; the second is to use a lithium ion-containing thin film such as lithium niobate or lithium tantalate. The second scheme does not need to carry out the injection of lithium ions additionally, can realize the continuous production of multi-layer vacuum magnetron sputtering during the production, and avoids the efficiency reduction caused by the processes such as vacuum breaking, heat treatment and the like in the production line of the first scheme. In addition, the production, transportation, use, replacement and preservation of the metallic lithium target are difficult, and the productivity of the first technical scheme is limited.
However, the second technical route is only verified in a laboratory at present, and is limited by the conductivity of the lithium niobate ceramic target material, and the second technical route can only be prepared by adopting a radio frequency magnetron sputtering method, so that the radio frequency sputtering efficiency is low, the power supply cost is extremely high, and the large-scale industrialized popularization and application can not be realized. The lithium niobate material is used as photoelectric, piezoelectric and electricity-saving material, and the monocrystal crystal and film are used widely in acousto-optic converting device. Lithium niobate ceramics as magnetron sputtering targets have relatively few studies, and thus current applications of lithium niobate in the process of inorganic electrochromic industrialization are limited by the materials themselves. At least the following technical problems exist in the current application of lithium niobate materials in electrochromic: the pure lithium niobate target material has poor conductivity and can only be used for preparing a film by adopting a radio frequency magnetron sputtering method; the research on the preparation of lithium niobate ceramic is insufficient, the target tissue adopted in the current laboratory is relatively coarse, the average grain size is more than 20 mu m, and the surface roughness of the thin film obtained by sputtering is large and the quality is poor; the ionic conductivity of the pure lithium niobate solid electrolyte film is lower than that of liquid and colloid electrolytes, and the color change and response speed of the pure lithium niobate solid electrolyte film cannot be achieved as the pure lithium niobate solid electrolyte film is the same as that of the pure lithium niobate solid electrolyte film.
Therefore, in order to expand the application range of the lithium niobate target material and promote the technical upgrading of electrochromic industry, a lithium niobate target material with good conductivity and high purity is needed.
