Description

本発明は紫外・可視域の光透過性に優れた光学部材用のシリカ焼結体に関する。 The present invention relates to a silica sintered body for an optical member, which has excellent light transmittance in the ultraviolet/visible region.

シリカガラスは、化学薬品容器、化学機器、分析・計測器具、各種半導体製造用治具など幅広く用いられている。特に光透過性を利用する分野において近赤外から深紫外までの広範囲の波長域に渡って透明であることからシリカガラス製品が用いられている。それらは、熱膨張係数が極めて小さく寸法安定性に優れていること、高純度であることなどの理由から、合成シリカガラスが主に用いられている。 Silica glass is widely used in chemical containers, chemical equipment, analytical and measuring instruments, and various semiconductor manufacturing jigs. Particularly in the field of utilizing light transmittance, silica glass products are used because they are transparent over a wide wavelength range from near infrared to deep ultraviolet. For these reasons, synthetic silica glass is mainly used because of its extremely small thermal expansion coefficient, excellent dimensional stability, and high purity.

このような紫外・可視透過シリカ材料は、四塩化ケイ素等のケイ素化合物を、酸水素バーナーを通して酸水素炎中に気相搬送し、水素の燃焼により発生した水で加水分解反応によりシリカ微粒子を生成、堆積させることで製造されていた(非特許文献1)。本方法によるシリカガラス材料は250〜600nmの紫外・可視域の波長において高い透過率材料として知られている。 Such ultraviolet/visible transparent silica materials carry a silicon compound such as silicon tetrachloride in a gas phase through an oxyhydrogen burner into an oxyhydrogen flame, and generate silica fine particles by a hydrolysis reaction with water generated by the combustion of hydrogen. , Was manufactured by depositing (Non-Patent Document 1). The silica glass material according to the present method is known as a material having a high transmittance at a wavelength in the ultraviolet/visible region of 250 to 600 nm.

また、波長250nm以下の深紫外線用光学部材として、四塩化ケイ素を酸水素火炎中で加水分解させた後、基材上に堆積させて多孔質合成シリカガラス体を作製し、焼成することで製造される光学部材も報告されている(特許文献1)。 Further, as an optical member for deep ultraviolet rays having a wavelength of 250 nm or less, silicon tetrachloride is hydrolyzed in an oxyhydrogen flame, and then deposited on a substrate to produce a porous synthetic silica glass body, and manufactured by firing. Also disclosed is an optical member (Patent Document 1).

しかしながら、酸水素ガスを用いた火炎加水分解反応は、製造にあたって、水素の使用、高い反応温度、又は排気装置等の特殊な大型装置が必要であり、かつ、供給ガス等の制御も必要であることから、製造コストが高いという問題があった。また、前記した方法により製造されるものは、インゴットと呼ばれるシリカの塊であり、所定の形状に加工するためには、さらに加工する必要がある。このため、形状の複雑な光学部材や、サイズが小さい特殊な分析用のチップやレンズの加工において、充分な加工精度が得られないという問題があった。また、サイズの小さなものを製造するに際しては、エネルギーの消費量が大きいことも問題と思われる。 However, the flame hydrolysis reaction using oxyhydrogen gas requires the use of hydrogen, a high reaction temperature, or a special large-scale device such as an exhaust device in the production, and it is also necessary to control the supply gas and the like. Therefore, there is a problem that the manufacturing cost is high. The product produced by the above-mentioned method is a lump of silica called an ingot, which needs to be further processed in order to be processed into a predetermined shape. Therefore, there is a problem that sufficient processing accuracy cannot be obtained in processing of an optical member having a complicated shape and a small size of a special analysis chip or lens. In addition, when manufacturing a small size product, a large amount of energy consumption may be a problem.

本発明のシリカ焼結体は、Na、Mg、Al、K、Ca、Cr、Fe、Ni及びCuの元素を合計して0.25ppm以上2.5ppm以下の量で含むことで、波長300nmのとき80%以上の光透過性を有し、かつ、薄肉かつ複雑な形状を形成するのに充分な強度を有する。 The silica sintered body of the present invention contains elements of Na, Mg, Al, K, Ca, Cr, Fe, Ni and Cu in a total amount of 0.25 ppm or more and 2.5 ppm or less, and thus has a wavelength of 300 nm. At this time, it has a light transmittance of 80% or more and has sufficient strength to form a thin and complicated shape.

本発明のシリカ焼結体は、紫外・可視域の光透過性に優れ、かつ、板状、球状、半球状、楕円形状及び半楕円形状等のいずれにも形成可能であるため、紫外・可視分光分析用チップ、紫外・可視分光光度計に組み込まれるプリズム、レンズ、導光板、散乱板、及び紫外線LED用レンズ、その他のサイズの小さい特殊な分析用のチップやレンズ等に好適に用いることができる。 The silica sintered body of the present invention has excellent light transmittance in the ultraviolet/visible region, and can be formed into any of plate-like, spherical, hemispherical, elliptical and semi-elliptical shapes. Suitable for use in spectroscopic analysis chips, prisms, lenses, light guide plates, scatter plates, and UV LED lenses incorporated in UV/visible spectrophotometers, and other special small size analysis chips and lenses. it can.

本発明のシリカ焼結体は、その製造にあたり、不必要に大きなインゴットを製造したり、水素の使用や排気装置等の大型装置が不要になるため、従来のシリカガラスに比べて少ないエネルギー消費で製造することができる。 In the production of the silica sintered body of the present invention, it is possible to produce an unnecessarily large ingot, and it becomes unnecessary to use hydrogen or a large-scale device such as an exhaust device, so that the energy consumption is less than that of the conventional silica glass. It can be manufactured.

本発明のシリカ焼結体は、Na、Mg、Al、K、Ca、Cr、Fe、Ni及びCuの元素の含有量の合計が0.25ppm以上2.5ppm以下である。 In the silica sintered body of the present invention, the total content of elements of Na, Mg, Al, K, Ca, Cr, Fe, Ni and Cu is 0.25 ppm or more and 2.5 ppm or less.

本発明のシリカ焼結体には、Na、Mg、Al、K、Ca、Cr、Fe、Ni及びCuの元素が合計して0.25ppm以上2.5ppm以下、好ましくは0.25ppm以上0.5ppm以下の量で含まれる。さらに上記元素のうち、Na、Cr、Fe、Ni、Cuの元素含有量が合計で0.025ppm以上0.1ppmであることがさらに好ましい。上記元素の合計含有量が0.25ppm以上2.5ppm以下であるとき、シリカ焼結体は、波長300nmのとき85%以上の光透過性を有し、かつ、薄肉かつ複雑な形状に形成可能な充分な強度を有する。上記元素の合計含有量が2.5ppmを超える場合、シリカ焼結体は、焼結時にクリストバライト化して、クラックが多数発生し、強度が著しく低下する。また、透過率も著しく減少するため、光学部材として適さない。一方、上記元素の合計含有量が0.25ppm未満である場合、シリカ焼結体は、充分な強度を得ることができず、所望の形状を得ることが困難である。 In the silica sintered body of the present invention, the total elements of Na, Mg, Al, K, Ca, Cr, Fe, Ni and Cu are 0.25 ppm or more and 2.5 ppm or less, preferably 0.25 ppm or more and 0.1.

It has sufficient strength. When the total content of the above elements exceeds 2.5 ppm, the silica sintered body is converted into cristobalite during sintering, many cracks are generated, and the strength is significantly reduced. Further, the transmittance is remarkably reduced, which is not suitable as an optical member. On the other hand, when the total content of the above elements is less than 0.25 ppm, the silica sintered body cannot obtain sufficient strength, and it is difficult to obtain a desired shape.

上記シリカ焼結体の少なくとも一部は非加工であり、かつ前記非加工面の表面粗さRaは0.1μm以下であることが好ましい。前記シリカ焼結体の少なくとも一部が非加工であり、かつ前記非加工面の表面粗さRaが0.1μm以下であることにより、光学用途において、シリカ焼結体の表面で光が反射又は拡散を抑制でき、優れた透明度を得ることができる。 It is preferable that at least a part of the silica sintered body is unprocessed, and the surface roughness Ra of the unprocessed surface is 0.1 μm or less. At least a part of the silica sintered body is unprocessed, and the surface roughness Ra of the non-processed surface is 0.1 μm or less, so that in optical applications, light is reflected or reflected on the surface of the silica sintered body. Diffusion can be suppressed and excellent transparency can be obtained.

また、上記シリカ焼結体は、脈理がない、実質的には、その屈折率分布が1×10-6以下であることが好ましい。前記屈折率分布が1×10-6以下であることにより、光学用ガラスとして利用することができる。なお、屈折率分布とは、最大屈折率と最小屈折率の差を表す。 Further, it is preferable that the silica sintered body has no striae and substantially has a refractive index distribution of 1×10 −6 or less. When the refractive index distribution is 1×10 −6 or less, it can be used as optical glass. The refractive index distribution represents the difference between the maximum refractive index and the minimum refractive index.

以上のとおり、本発明のシリカ焼成体は、紫外・可視域の光透過性に優れ、また、板状、球状、半球状、楕円状及び半楕円状等、いずれの形状にも形成可能であるため、紫外・可視分光分析用チップ、紫外・可視分光光度計に組み込まれるレンズ、プリズム、導光板、散乱板、及び紫外線LED用レンズ、その他のサイズの小さい特殊な分析用のチップやレンズ等の光学用途に好適である。特に、半球状又は半楕円状に形成することが要求される、紫外・可視分光光度計に組み込まれるレンズ等や、紫外線LED用レンズ等の用途に好適である。 As described above, the silica calcined product of the present invention is excellent in light transmittance in the ultraviolet/visible range and can be formed into any shape such as a plate shape, a spherical shape, a hemispherical shape, an elliptical shape and a semielliptic shape. Therefore, the UV/visible spectroscopic analysis chip, the lens, prism, light guide plate, scattering plate, and UV LED lens incorporated in the UV/visible spectrophotometer, and other small-sized special analysis chips and lenses, etc. Suitable for optical applications. In particular, it is suitable for applications such as a lens incorporated in an ultraviolet/visible spectrophotometer and a lens for an ultraviolet LED, which are required to be formed in a hemispherical shape or a semielliptic shape.

上記シリカ焼結体の原料粉(以下「シリカ原料粉」という。)には、最終的に得られるシリカ焼結体がNa、Mg、Al、K、Ca、Cr、Fe、Ni及びCuの中から合計で一定量の元素を含むものとなる限り、制限なく、種々のものが用いられる。前記シリカ原料粉には、例えば、気相反応で製造される高純度合成溶融球状シリカ並びに、コロイダルシリカ等が挙げられる。また、これらのシリカ原料粉は市販品であってもよい。前記市販品には、例えば、株式会社トクヤマ製エクセリカ等が挙げられる。前記シリカ原料粉又はその市販品は、安価であり、これらを用いて得られるシリカ焼結体は、紫外・可視域の光透過性に優れる。 In the raw material powder of the silica sintered body (hereinafter referred to as “silica raw material powder”), the finally obtained silica sintered body is one of Na, Mg, Al, K, Ca, Cr, Fe, Ni and Cu. Therefore, as long as it contains a certain amount of elements in total, various materials can be used without limitation. Examples of the silica raw material powder include high-purity synthetic fused spherical silica produced by a gas phase reaction, and colloidal silica. Further, these silica raw material powders may be commercial products. Examples of the commercially available product include Excelica manufactured by Tokuyama Corporation. The silica raw material powder or a commercial product thereof is inexpensive, and the silica sintered body obtained by using these is excellent in light transmittance in the ultraviolet/visible region.

前記シリカ原料粉は、特定の粒形態を有することが好ましい。具体的には、前記シリカ原料粉の粒径は0.5〜10μmであることが好ましく、1〜3μmであることがより好ましい。また、前記シリカ原料粉の真球度は90%以上であることが好ましく、95%以上であることがより好ましい。シリカ原料粉の真球度が90%以上であると、成形体又はシリカ焼結体のパッキング性が良く、シリカ焼結体中に残存する泡の直径を20μm以下とすることができる。 The silica raw material powder preferably has a specific grain form. Specifically, the particle size of the silica raw material powder is preferably 0.5 to 10 μm, and more preferably 1 to 3 μm. Further, the sphericity of the silica raw material powder is preferably 90% or more, and more preferably 95% or more. When the sphericity of the silica raw material powder is 90% or more, the compacting property of the molded body or the silica sintered body is good, and the diameter of the bubbles remaining in the silica sintered body can be 20 μm or less.

本発明のシリカ焼結体は、前記シリカ原料粉に、バインダーを添加して混合し、脱気し、焼結することで製造することができる。 The silica sintered body of the present invention can be manufactured by adding a binder to the silica raw material powder, mixing them, deaerating and sintering.

バインダーには、最終的に得られるシリカ焼結体がNa、Mg、Al、K、Ca、Cr、Fe、Ni及びCuの元素を含むものとなる限り、制限なく、種々のものが用いられる。前記バインダーには、例えば、ポリエチレンイミン、ポリビニルアルコール、ポリアクリル酸、メタクリルアミド及びエポキシ樹脂等が挙げられる。これらのバインダーは市販品であってもよい。前記市販品には、例えば、株式会社日本触媒製エポミン等が挙げられる。 As the binder, various silica binders can be used without limitation as long as the finally obtained silica sintered body contains the elements of Na, Mg, Al, K, Ca, Cr, Fe, Ni and Cu. Examples of the binder include polyethyleneimine, polyvinyl alcohol, polyacrylic acid, methacrylamide, and epoxy resin. These binders may be commercial products. Examples of the commercially available product include Epomin manufactured by Nippon Shokubai Co., Ltd.

前記バインダーは、シリカ原料粉に対して、通常は2.5〜10wt%、好ましくは2.5〜5wt%添加する。これらのバインダーの添加量が2.5〜10wt%の範囲内であるとき、得られるシリカ焼結体に含まれるSi以外の成分、すなわち、Na、Mg、Al、K、Ca、Cr、Fe、Ni及びCuの元素の含有量が合計して0.25ppm以上2.5ppm以下となり、充分な強度を維持することができる。 The binder is usually added in an amount of 2.5 to 10 wt%, preferably 2.5 to 5 wt% with respect to the silica raw material powder. When the added amount of these binders is in the range of 2.5 to 10 wt %, components other than Si contained in the obtained silica sintered body, that is, Na, Mg, Al, K, Ca, Cr, Fe, The total content of elements of Ni and Cu is 0.25 ppm or more and 2.5 ppm or less, and sufficient strength can be maintained.

一方、バインダーの添加量が2.5wt%未満だと、成形体強度が十分でないことがあり、10wt%超だと、結晶化により、焼結体の強度が十分でないことがある。 On the other hand, if the addition amount of the binder is less than 2.5 wt%, the strength of the compact may be insufficient, and if it exceeds 10 wt%, the strength of the sintered body may be insufficient due to crystallization.

本発明のシリカ焼結体は、上記成分を所定量で含むことで、強度が向上し、肉厚を0.2mmまで薄く、さらに、半球形状、ドームのようなキャップ形状、又はエンボス形状といった凹凸のある複雑形状に形成することができる。 Since the silica sintered body of the present invention contains the above-mentioned components in a predetermined amount, the strength is improved, the wall thickness is reduced to 0.2 mm, and further, the hemispherical shape, the dome-like cap shape, or the embossed shape unevenness. It can be formed into a complicated shape with a certain shape.

上記シリカ焼結体は、シリカ粉及びバインダーを混合攪拌した後、所望の形状の成形型を用いて成形体を作製し、焼成することで、精度良く製造することができる。 The silica sintered body can be manufactured with high accuracy by mixing and stirring the silica powder and the binder, and then forming a molded body using a molding die having a desired shape and firing the molded body.

混合攪拌は、シリカ粉及びバインダーが均一に混合される程度に行う。具体的には、シリカ粉及びバインダーの量や種類等によって異なるが、一般に40〜100rpmで600〜1440分間程度行う。また、このときの温度は、通常は室温である。 The mixing and stirring are performed until the silica powder and the binder are uniformly mixed. Specifically, it is generally carried out at 40 to 100 rpm for about 600 to 1440 minutes, though it depends on the amounts and kinds of the silica powder and the binder. The temperature at this time is usually room temperature.

なお、上記シリカ焼結体は、シリカ粉及びバインダー以外に、本発明の効果を損なわない範囲内で、例えば、アンモニア等の添加剤を添加してもよい。 In addition to the silica powder and the binder, an additive such as ammonia may be added to the above-mentioned silica sintered body as long as the effect of the present invention is not impaired.

成形には、一般的なセラミックスで用いられる方法、例えば、プレス成型、CIP成形、鋳込み成形、ゲルキャスト成形、及びスリップキャスト成形等が用いられる。 For molding, a method used for general ceramics, for example, press molding, CIP molding, cast molding, gel cast molding, slip cast molding, or the like is used.

焼成には、セラミックの焼成に一般的に用いられる電気炉を使用できるが、真空雰囲気下に焼成することが好ましい。電気炉を用いた成形だと、シリカ焼成体の内部に気泡が残存することが多いが、真空焼成により泡が抜けやすくなるためである。また、上記のとおり、真球度が90%以上のシリカ原料粉を使用することで、成形体又はシリカ焼結体のパッキング性が向上し、得られるシリカ焼結体中に残存する気泡の直径を20μm以下にすることができる。気泡の直径が20μmを超えると、光学用途には、映り込み等の発生のため、適用困難なことがある。 For firing, an electric furnace generally used for firing ceramics can be used, but firing in a vacuum atmosphere is preferable. This is because when molding is performed using an electric furnace, air bubbles often remain inside the fired silica body, but the bubbles are easily removed by vacuum firing. Further, as described above, by using the silica raw material powder having the sphericity of 90% or more, the packing property of the molded body or the silica sintered body is improved, and the diameter of the bubbles remaining in the obtained silica sintered body. Can be 20 μm or less. If the diameter of the bubbles exceeds 20 μm, it may be difficult to apply to optical applications due to the occurrence of glare and the like.

以下、本発明を実施例に基づき具体的に説明するが、本発明は下記に示す実施例により制限されるものではない。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically described based on examples, but the present invention is not limited to the examples shown below.
