Description of the Invention [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a casting mold, a Cu-Ga alloy ingot, a sputtering target, and a Cu- used in the production of a Cu-Ga alloy ingot by a melt casting method. A method of manufacturing a Ga alloy ingot. [Prior Art]

Ga(鎵)的組成比較大之Cu-Ga合金,主要用來作爲薄 膜型太陽電池的光吸收層之薄膜形成用的濺鍍靶。 濺鍍靶,是將藉由熔鑄法製造之長方體形狀(例如大 小爲300mmx400mmxl000mm)之合金鑄塊使用車床、圓鋸 切割成好幾片,將切割後的合金片(鑄錠)實施輥軋、切削 而製造出。 例如,在專利文獻1揭示,藉由熔鑄法製造濺鍍靶用 CU_Ga合金鑄錠之方法。然而’在專利文獻1所揭示的技 術,僅能製造較小尺寸的Cu-Ga合金鑄錠。又依據專利文 獻1所揭示的技術,每次都必須準備配合所期望的Cu-Ga 合金鑄錠大小之模具,因此生產性極低。 作爲製造濺鍍靶用Cu-Ga合金鑄錠之其他方法,與陶 瓷等的成形同樣的,藉由將Cu-Ga合金粉末燒結而成形爲 期望形狀的方法是已知的。然而,藉由該方法所製造之 Cu-Ga合金鑄錠,當力口工成濺鍍靶時’成爲相對密度95% 以下之低密度,且氧含有率高達數l〇〇〇PPm,存在著濺鍍 成膜時的異常放電、氧化物所造成的污染等問題。 -5- 201247338 因此,在製作濺鍍靶時使用Cu-Ga合金鑄錠的情況, Cu-Ga合金鑄錠宜藉由一般的熔鑄法來製造。A Cu-Ga alloy having a relatively large composition of Ga (gallium) is mainly used as a sputtering target for forming a thin film of a light absorbing layer of a thin film type solar cell. The sputtering target is an alloy ingot having a rectangular parallelepiped shape (for example, 300 mm x 400 mm x 1000 mm) manufactured by a smelting method, which is cut into several pieces using a lathe or a circular saw, and the cut alloy piece (ingot) is rolled and cut. Made out. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a method of producing a CU_Ga alloy ingot for a sputtering target by a melt casting method. However, in the technique disclosed in Patent Document 1, only a Cu-Ga alloy ingot of a smaller size can be manufactured. Further, according to the technique disclosed in Patent Document 1, it is necessary to prepare a mold having a desired Cu-Ga alloy ingot size each time, and thus productivity is extremely low. As another method of producing a Cu-Ga alloy ingot for a sputtering target, a method of forming a desired shape by sintering a Cu-Ga alloy powder is known similarly to the molding of ceramics or the like. However, the Cu-Ga alloy ingot produced by the method has a low density of 95% or less when the force is formed into a sputtering target, and the oxygen content rate is as high as several 〇〇〇PPm, and there is Problems such as abnormal discharge during sputtering film formation and contamination by oxides. -5- 201247338 Therefore, in the case of using a Cu-Ga alloy ingot in the production of a sputtering target, the Cu-Ga alloy ingot is preferably produced by a general melt casting method.

Ga組成比較大的Cu-Ga合金,延性、展性差,硬度 高且容易破裂(脆)。因此,藉由熔鑄法製造的Cu-Ga合金 鑄錠,會有發生龜裂的情況。爲了將如此般發生龜裂後的 Cu-Ga合金鑄錠予以製品化,例如必須將發生龜裂的部分 切削除去。此外,所產生的切削屑中會因切削而混入雜 質,因此無法作爲濺鍍靶的原料進行再利用。因此,會產 生無法再利用之大量切削屑,而使Cu-Ga合金鑄錠製品的 良率變差。 例如,在非專利文獻1中,作爲將銅合金鑄物藉由熔 鑄法製造時之龜裂發生抑制方法係揭示出:改變鑄模形狀 以減少應力發生源的方法、將鑄物各部位實施均一地冷卻 以減少溫度梯度而將應力緩和的方法、在鑄模上部等的冒 口部設置發熱材、保溫材等的方法等。 [專利文獻1]日本特開2000-73163號公報 [非專利文獻1 ]「銅合金鑄物之生產技術」,財團法 人素形材中心,P.391〜392 【發明內容】 然而’ Ga組成比較大的Cu-Ga合金,由於屬於硬度 高之脆性材料’作爲將Cu-Ga合金鑄錠藉由熔鑄法製造時 之龜裂對策’即使是採用非專利文獻1所揭示的技術,要 充分抑制龜裂發生而製造出大型Cu-Ga合金鑄錠是困難。 -6- 201247338 本發明的目的是爲了提供一種能抑制龜裂發生而製造 出大型Cu-Ga合金鑄錠之Cu-Ga合金鑄錠之製造方法。 此外’本發明的其他目的,是爲了提供實施該方法時所使 用的鑄造用鑄模、使用該鑄造用鑄模藉由熔鑄法製作出之 Cu-Ga合金鑄錠、以及濺鍍靶。 本發明之鑄造用鑄模,是將Cu-Ga合金鑄錠藉由熔鑄 法製作時所使用之鑄造用鑄模;係具備鑄模主體及導引 部; 該鑄模主體,是形成有底筒狀且具有開口部,在該開 口部形成用來供應Cu-Ga合金熔融液之開口; 該導引部,是設置在前述鑄模主體之前述開口部,將 朝向前述開口部供應之Cu-Ga合金熔融液以減少該熔融液 動能的方式導引並注入前述鑄模主體內。 又本發明之鑄造用鑄模較佳爲,前述導引部係具備形 成有傾斜面之傾斜構件,該傾斜面,是讓朝向前述鑄模主 體的前述開口部供應之Cu-Ga合金熔融液流過,且是以隨 著從前述鑄模主體之前述開口部朝向內方而接近前述鑄模 主體之底面的方式延伸; 在前述傾斜構件之最接近前述鑄模主體底面之前端部 和前述鑄模主體的內周面之間形成間隙,該間隙是讓沿著 前述傾斜構件之前述傾斜面流過的Cu-Ga合金熔融液注入 前述鑄模主體內。 又本發明之鑄造用鑄模較佳爲,前述鑄模主體是形成 前述開口部呈長方形的四角筒狀; 201247338 前述傾斜構件之前述傾斜面,是以隨著從前述鑄模主 體之前述開口部的一方短邊朝向內方而接近前述鑄模主體 之底面的方式延伸。 又本發明之鑄造用鑄模較佳爲,前述導引部係具備第 1傾斜構件及第2傾斜構件; 該第1傾斜構件具有:以隨著從前述鑄模主體之前述 開口部朝向內方而接近前述鑄模主體之底面的方式延伸之 傾斜面; 該第2傾斜構件,在與前述鑄模主體的底面平行的方 向是設置成與前述第1傾斜構件相對向,且具有:以隨著 從前述鑄模主體之前述開口部朝向內方而接近前述鑄模主 體之底面的方式延伸之傾斜面; 將前述第1傾斜構件和前述第2傾斜構件配置成,使 最接近前述鑄模主體的底面之各自的前端部,以不接觸對 方的傾斜面的方式在與前述鑄模主體之底面平行的方向上 位於不同的位置。 又本發明之鑄造用鑄模較佳爲,將前述第1傾斜構件 和前述第2傾斜構件配置成,使各自的前端部位於與前述 鑄模主體的底面平行之同一平面上,且在各自的前端部彼 此間形成間隙。 又本發明之鑄造用鑄模較佳爲,將前述第1傾斜構件 和前述第2傾斜構件配置成,使各自的前端部彼此間所形 成之前述間隙位於前述鑄模主體之前述開口部的中央。 又本發明之鑄造用鑄模較佳爲,前述鑄模主體是形成 -8 -

The method for producing a Cu-Ga alloy ingot of the present invention preferably further comprises the steps of: after extracting the Cu-Ga alloy from the body of the mold, the Cu-Ga alloy Heating at a temperature of 450 ° C or higher and less than 700 ° C under atmospheric pressure 1 The mold for casting of the present invention is a mold used for casting a Cu-Ga alloy ingot by a melt casting method. The mold for casting includes a mold main body and a guide portion. The bottom portion has a bottomed cylindrical shape and has an opening for supplying a molten liquid of the Cu-Ga alloy. The guiding portion is an opening portion provided in the main body of the mold for supplying the Cu-Ga alloy melt supplied toward the opening portion. The kinetic energy of the melt is reduced and introduced into the mold main body. When the Cu_Ga alloy ingot is produced by the -10-201247338 smelting method using the casting mold of the above structure, the Cu-G a alloy melt is oriented. The guide portion provided in the opening portion of the mold main body is supplied. That is, when the Cu-Ga alloy ingot is produced by the melt casting method using the casting mold of the present invention, the Cu-Ga alloy melt is not directly from the opening portion. The injection mold is injected into the main body of the mold by the guide portion, and the molten metal is injected into the main body of the mold while being reduced. The melt is uniformly solidified. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of cracks to produce a large-sized Cu-Ga alloy cast. According to the present invention, the guide portion is preferably provided with a slanting member. The inclined member is formed with an inclined surface, the inclined surface The method extends so as to approach the bottom surface of the mold body as it goes inward from the opening of the mold body. Further, a gap is formed between the end portion of the inclined member closest to the bottom surface of the mold body and the inner peripheral surface of the mold body. This gap is such that the Cu-Ga alloy melt flowing through the inclined surface of the inclined member is injected into the mold main body. The Cu-Ga alloy ingot is produced by the melt casting method using the casting mold of the above structure, Cu-Ga The alloy melt is supplied toward the inclined surface of the inclined member provided in the guide portion of the opening portion of the mold main body. The Cu-Ga alloy melt supplied to the inclined surface of the inclined member flows along the inclined surface and reaches the front end portion. Further, the Cu-Ga alloy melt which has reached the tip end portion is injected into the mold body from the tip end portion and the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body so as to be along the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body. In the case where the Cu-Ga alloy ingot is produced by the melt casting method using the above casting mold, as described above, the Cu-Ga alloy melt is not directly injected into the mold main body from the opening portion, but flows along the inclined surface of the inclined member. The gap formed between the front end portion and the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body from -11 - 201247338 is injected into the mold main body along the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body, thereby reducing the melt liquid injected into the main body of the mold main body. The kinetic energy can prevent splashing of the melt caused by the inner peripheral surface (especially the bottom surface) of the main body of the casting body during the injection. Thus, it is possible to suppress the convection of the melt when injected into the main body of the mold, and to prevent the melt from splashing, so that the melt can be uniformly solidified in the main body of the mold. In this way, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of cracks and the occurrence of internal defects to produce a large-sized Cu-Ga alloy ingot. Further, according to the present invention, it is preferable that the main body of the mold is formed in a rectangular tubular shape in which the opening portion has a rectangular shape. Further, it is preferable that the inclined surface of the inclined member extends so as to approach the bottom surface of the main body of the mold as it goes inward from one short side of the opening of the mold main body. Thus, the length of the inclined surface of the inclined member can be sufficiently ensured, so that the controllability of the flow rate of the molten metal flowing along the inclined surface can be improved. Thus, the controllability of reducing the kinetic energy of the molten metal when injected into the main body of the mold can be improved. Further preferably, according to the invention, the guide portion includes the first inclined member and the second inclined member. The first inclined member has an inclined surface that extends so as to approach the bottom surface of the mold body as it goes inward from the opening of the mold body. The second inclined member is disposed to face the first inclined member in a direction parallel to the bottom surface of the mold main body. The second inclined member has an inclined surface that extends so as to approach the bottom surface of the mold main body inward from the opening of the mold main body, and the first inclined member and the second inclined member are disposed so as to be the most The respective front end portions of the bottom surface of the mold main body are located at different positions in a direction -12-201247338 parallel to the bottom surface of the mold main body so as not to contact the inclined surface of the other mold body. When the Cu-Ga alloy ingot is produced by the melt casting method using the casting mold of the above structure, the Cu-Ga alloy melt 'is inclined toward the first inclined member or the second inclined member provided in the opening of the mold main body. Surface supply. The Cu-Ga alloy melt supplied to the inclined surface of the first inclined member or the second inclined member flows along the inclined surface and reaches the tip end portion. The front end portions of the first inclined member and the second inclined member are located at different positions in a direction parallel to the bottom surface of the mold main body so as not to contact the inclined surface of the other side, so that the Cu-Ga alloy is melted after reaching the front end portion. The liquid can be injected into the body of the mold. When the Cu-Ga alloy ingot is produced by the melt casting method using the above casting mold, as described above, the Cu-Ga alloy melt is not directly injected into the mold main body from the opening portion, but is along the first inclined member or the first Since the inclined surface of the inclined member flows and is injected into the mold main body from the front end portion, the kinetic energy of the molten liquid when injected into the main body of the mold can be reduced. Thus, the convection of the molten liquid when injected into the main body of the mold can be suppressed, so that the molten metal can be uniformly solidified in the main body of the mold. Thus, a large Cu-Ga alloy ingot can be produced by suppressing the occurrence of cracks. Further, according to the present invention, it is preferable that the first inclined member and the second inclined member are disposed such that "the front end portions are located on the same plane parallel to the bottom surface of the mold main body" and a gap is formed between the respective front end portions. In this way, the C u _ G a alloy melt supplied to the inclined surface of the first slanting member or the second slanting member flows along the inclined surface, and the front end portions of each of the second slanting member and the second slanting member are mutually The gap formed between the injections is injected into the body of the mold main-13-201247338, thereby reducing the kinetic energy of the molten metal injected into the main body of the mold. Further, according to the invention, it is preferable that the first inclined member and the second inclined member are disposed such that the gap formed between the respective distal end portions is located at the center of the opening of the mold main body. In this way, the Cu-Ga alloy melt supplied to the inclined surface of the first inclined member or the second inclined member is injected into the mold main body from the gap located at the center of the opening of the mold main body after flowing along the inclined surface. The kinetic energy of the melt when injected into the body of the mold is reduced. Further, according to the invention, it is preferable that the main body of the mold is formed in a rectangular tubular shape in which the opening portion has a rectangular shape. Further, it is preferable that each of the inclined surfaces of the first inclined member and the second inclined member extends so as to approach the bottom surface of the mold main body with the two short sides facing from the opening portion of the mold main body facing inward. . In this manner, the length of each inclined surface of the first inclined member and the second inclined member can be sufficiently ensured, and the controllability of the flow rate of the molten metal flowing along the inclined surface can be improved. Therefore, the controllability of reducing the kinetic energy of the molten metal when injected into the main body of the mold can be improved. Further, according to the present invention, it is preferable that a cooling suppressing member is provided in a predetermined region on the outer peripheral surface of the main body of the mold main body in the normal direction of the bottom surface of the main mold body in the normal direction of the bottom surface. The Cu-Ga alloy melt injected into the main body of the mold is excessively cooled. As a result, the molten metal injected into the mold main body from the tip end portion after flowing along the inclined surface of the first inclined member or the second inclined member can be prevented from being rapidly cooled, so that the molten liquid can be uniformly solidified in the mold main body. Further, according to the present invention, it is preferable that the length of the normal direction 14 - 201247338 of the cooling suppressing member is 1/4 or more of the length of the main body of the mold main body, thereby reliably preventing the first inclined member or Since the molten metal injected into the mold main body from the tip end portion is abrupt after the inclined surface of the second inclined member flows, the molten liquid can be uniformly solidified in the mold main body. Further, according to the present invention, it is preferable that the cooling suppressing member adjusts the maximum maximum reaching temperature (°C) of the mold to 22% or more and 62% or less of the temperature (°C) of the Cu-Ga melt before being injected into the main body of the mold. In this way, the molten metal in the mold main body can be prevented from being rapidly cooled, and the molten metal can be uniformly and efficiently solidified in the mold. Further, according to the present invention, it is preferable that the Ga group of the Cu-Ga alloy ingot is 1 Oat% or more and 50 at% or less. Cu-Ga, which has a relatively large Ga composition, is a brittle material having a high hardness, and thus cracking may occur when a Cu-Ga alloy ingot is produced by a casting method. In the Cu-Ga ingot of the present invention, since the kinetic energy of the molten metal which is injected into the main body of the casting mold is reduced and the casting mold is used, the casting mold is produced by the melt casting method, so that the turtle can be suppressed. Further, according to the present invention, the sputtering target is produced by using a Cu-Ga alloy ingot which can suppress the occurrence of cracks. Thus, the sputtering of the present invention is used as a thin film-shaped sputtering target such as a light absorbing layer of a thin film type solar cell. Further, according to the method for producing a Cu-Ga alloy ingot according to the present invention, copper (Cu) and gallium (Ga) are built in the first crucible, and the pressure is reduced to below Li^Torr under the pressure at a temperature increase rate of 5 to 2 CTC/min. After heating to a temperature of 800 ° C to 1 ° C, it is kept at this temperature for 30 minutes to 12 hours and reduced. Such as the alloy of the cold body of the cold body, the ratio of gold to the body is cast by the molten alloy, the target is suitable for use. After pressing 100 to -15-201247338 8xl (T4T〇rr or less, the Cu-Ga alloy melt is obtained in the crucible. Then, the melt in the crucible is cast using the casting mold of the present invention. Specifically, The molten metal is supplied to the guide portion of the casting mold to inject the molten metal into the mold main body to perform casting. Then, the Cu-Ga alloy cast in the mold main body is cooled to room temperature, and then the main body of the mold is molded. The Cu-Ga alloy is taken out to obtain a Cu-Ga alloy mirror. In the method for producing a Cu-Ga alloy ingot according to the present invention, as described above, the Cu-Ga alloy melt is not directly injected into the mold body from the opening portion, but The guide portion is injected into the mold main body in a state where the kinetic energy is reduced. Thus, the convection of the molten metal when injected into the mold main body can be suppressed, so that the molten liquid can be uniformly solidified in the mold main body. A large Cu-Ga alloy ingot is produced by cracking. Further, in the method for producing a Cu-Ga alloy ingot according to the present invention, after the Cu-Ga alloy is taken out from the main body of the mold, the Cu-Ga alloy is at atmospheric pressure. Heating at a temperature of 450 ° C or higher and less than 700 ° C for 1 hour or more and 12 hours or less. Thus, in the Cu-Ga alloy ingot obtained by solidifying the molten metal in the mold main body, it can be suppressed Ga segregation occurs in Cu, and stress generated inside the Cu-Ga alloy ingot can be released. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings (casting mold). A perspective view showing the structure of the casting mold--16-201247338 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. In the first drawing, in order to make the internal structure of the casting mold 100 easy to understand, one side wall of the casting main body 1 is given. Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing a structure of a casting mold 1〇〇. The casting mold 100 of the present embodiment is a mold used for producing a Cu-Ga alloy ingot by a melt casting method. The material of the mold 1 , can be exemplified by sand, metal, ceramics, graphite (carbon), etc. Among them, sand, ceramics, graphite, etc. are preferable in view of the viewpoint of not becoming a metal contamination source in the Cu-Ga alloy. Heat capacity and heat transfer From the viewpoint of high conductivity and high cooling efficiency, it is preferably graphite. The casting mold 1 includes a mold main body 1, a guide portion 100A, and a cooling suppressing member 3. The casting mold 1 of the present embodiment is guided by a crucible. Part 100A, as long as it can be oriented toward the opening of the mold body 1. The Cu-Ga alloy melt supplied from the portion 1 1 is introduced into the mold main body 1 so as to reduce the kinetic energy of the melt, and the structure thereof is not particularly limited. The guide portion 1 〇〇 A is a Cu-Ga alloy melt supplied to the opening portion 11 of the mold main body 1, and is not directly injected into the mold main body 1 from the opening portion 11. Specifically, the guide portion 100A has a supply portion to which the Cu-Ga alloy melt is directly supplied, a part of the peripheral portion of the supply portion is connected to the opening portion 11, and the other portion of the peripheral portion is inside the opening portion 11. Become a free end. The guide portion 100A is directly supplied with the supply surface of the Cu-Ga alloy melt, and may be formed in a stepped shape, for example, and may be inclined in a flat shape to form an inclined surface. In the present embodiment, the guide portion 1A is formed by the inclined member 2 which forms the inclined surface on the supply surface, -17-201247338. The mold main body 1 is for accommodating a Cu-Ga alloy melt. In the present embodiment, a bottomed rectangular tube is formed, and the opening portion 11 facing the bottom surface 12 has a rectangular shape. The opening portion 11 serves to supply Cu- The opening of the Ga alloy melt. The length of the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body 1 parallel to the long side of the opening 1 1 (hereinafter referred to as "longitudinal direction"), that is, the long side of the opening 1 1 of the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body 1 The length (hereinafter referred to as "long-side inner diameter") is XI, and the length of the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body 1 parallel to the short side of the opening portion 11 (hereinafter referred to as "short-side direction") Y, that is, the mold main body The length of the short side of the opening portion 11 of the inner peripheral surface of 1 (hereinafter referred to as "short side inner diameter") is Υ1, and the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body 1 is parallel to the normal line of the bottom surface 12 (hereinafter referred to as "normal" The length of the 」"), that is, the height of the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body 1 (hereinafter referred to as "height inner diameter") is Ζ1, and the size of the mold main body 1 is preferably such that the inner diameter XI of the long side of the opening portion 11 is L〇〇mm or more and 1 000 mm or less, the short side inner diameter of the opening U is ¥1 to 2 mm or more and 1 000 mm or less, and the height inner diameter Z1 of the mold main body 1 is 2 mm or more and 100 mm or less. More preferably, the long-side inner diameter XI of the opening portion is 150 mm or more and 800 mm or less, and the short-side inner diameter γι of the opening portion is 30 mm or more and 150 mm or less, and the main body of the mold is formed! The height inner diameter zi is 50 mm or more and 900 mm or less. Especially good, the opening! The long side inner diameter XI of i is 200 mm or more and 500 mm or less, the short side inner diameter Y1 of the opening portion 11 is 40 mm or more and 10 mm or less, and the height inner diameter Z1 of the mold main body 1 is 100 mm or more and 800 mm or less. Further, in the mold main body i, the long side inner diameter XI of the opening -18 - 201247338 portion 11 and the short side inner diameter Y1 of the opening portion 11 preferably have a relationship of X1 > Y1. If the size of the mold main body 1 is too small, the productivity of the Cu-Ga alloy ingot is lowered, and the Cu-Ga alloy melt is quenched, which may cause brittle fracture. Further, if the size of the mold main body 1 is too large, not only the stress is accumulated in the Cu-Ga alloy ingot after casting, but also the brittle fracture occurs, and the final solidification position of the Cu-Ga alloy melt is located at the center portion to become an internal defect. The reason for the occurrence. Further, in the mold main body 1, the ratio of the length of the long side inner diameter X1 of the opening portion 1 1 to the inner diameter Y1 of the short side of the opening portion 11 is Y1: XI is preferably 1:2 when Y1 is "1". 1:15»Y1: X1 is more preferably 1: 3~1: 10〇 In the case of XI値 in "Υ1: XI", the solidification form of the Cu-Ga alloy melt in the mold body 1 changes, stress The central portion of the normal direction Z is accumulated, which causes brittle fracture, and even if the temperature is gradually reduced in order to reduce the occurrence of stress, segregation may occur. Further, in the case where the X1値 in the "Y1: X1" is large, since the long-side inner diameter XI is larger than the short-side inner diameter Y1, in the plane parallel to the bottom surface 12 in the mold main body 1, 'for the Cu-Ga alloy The cooling of the melt is uneven, and the stress is increased to cause cracking. In addition, when the XI 値 is large in the "Y1: XI", when the Cu_Ga alloy ingot obtained after casting is picked up and processed, a large amount of force is applied to the central portion of the longitudinal direction X. The possibility of rupture in this part becomes higher. In addition, the internal volume of the mold main body 1 is matched with the casting temperature of the casting -19-201247338 and the casting main body of the cooling suppression member 3 which will be described later, in accordance with the conditions of the specific heat, density, thermal conductivity, and the like of the material constituting the casting mold 100. The condition of adjusting the temperature of 1 or the like may be appropriately selected. The inclined member 2 has an inclined surface 2 1 which extends from the short side of one of the opening portions 11 of the mold main body 1 toward the inner side in the longitudinal direction X and approaches the mold main body 1 toward the inner side. The way of the bottom surface 12 forms an inclination. Further, a gap G' is formed between the end portion 22 of the inclined member 2 closest to the bottom surface 12 of the mold main body 1 and the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body 1, and the gap G is made to flow along the inclined surface 2 of the inclined member 2. The Cu-Ga alloy melt is injected into the opening in the mold body 1. The shape of the inclined member 2 is not particularly limited, and a shape when viewed from the short side direction Y of the opening portion 11 of the mold main body 1 is a triangle, a trapezoid, a rectangle, or the like. Further, the arrangement position of the inclined member 2 is sufficient The position at which the amount of the Cu-Ga alloy melt injected into the mold main body 1 is ensured is also set to a position of a desired size even if the cast Cu-Ga alloy ingot is not particularly limited. In the case of the inclined member 2, when the height inner diameter Z 1 of the mold main body 1 is "1", the lowermost position of the inclined member 2 is preferably 1/2 or more from the lowest portion of the mold main body 1, and more preferably 3/. A place of 5 or more is particularly good for a place of 2/3 or more. When the lowermost portion of the inclined member 2 is disposed on the excessive lower side in the mold main body 1, the Cu-Ga alloy ingot obtained with respect to the internal volume ' of the mold main body 1 becomes small, and therefore it is preferable to be as far as possible in the mold main body 1. Configured on the upper side. In the case where the Cu-Ga alloy ingot is produced by the melt casting method using the casting mold 100 of the above structure, the Cu-Ga alloy melt is oriented toward the inclined member 2 of the opening portion 1 of the mold body 1 of the casting -20-201247338. The inclined surface 21 is supplied with the C u - G a alloy melt supplied to the inclined surface 2 1 of the inclined member 2, and the molten metal flows to the front end portion 2 2 with the inclined surface 21 . Then, the leading end of the Cu-Ga alloy melt is injected into the mold main body 1 so as to be along the inside of the mold main body 1 from the gap G formed between the tip end portion 22 and the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body. In the present embodiment, the inclined surface 21' of the inclined member is continuously provided from the inner side in the short side direction X of one of the opening portions u of the mold main body 1, and a gap is formed between the front end portion 22 and the inner peripheral surface of the mold 1. G, therefore, the Cu-Ga alloy melt injected into the mold 1 from the gap G is injected into the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body 沿着 along the inner peripheral surface including the other short side of the opening portion 11, thereby narrowing the edge Since the contact area of the Cu-Ga melted liquid injected into the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body 1 and the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body 1 is formed, the Cu-Ga alloy melt in the mold main body 1 can be rapidly cooled. Therefore, the surface of the Cu-Ga alloy ingot obtained after casting is prevented from being roughened. When the Cu-Ga alloy is produced by the melt casting method using the casting mold 100 of the present embodiment, as described above, the Cu-Ga alloy is melted directly from the opening portion 1 1 into the mold main body 1, but along the pouring member. The gap G formed between the front end portion 22 and the surface of the mold main body 1 after flowing through the inclined surface 21 of 2 is injected into the mold main body 1 along the inner circumferential surface of the mold main body 1, so that the injection mold main body 1 can be reduced. The kinetic energy of the melt prevents splashing of the melt caused by collision with the inside of the mold main body 1 (especially the bottom surface 12) at the time of injection. Thus, convection of the melt in the mold main body 1 can be suppressed, and the melt can be prevented from flying. The direction of the circumference 2 along the edge of the body 2 is toward the main body. For example, the gold melt prevents the casting liquid from being inclined in the inner circumference. When the inner surface is sprayed, the molten metal is uniformly solidified in the main body 1 of the mold. In this way, a large Cu-Ga alloy ingot can be produced by suppressing the occurrence of cracks and the occurrence of internal defects. Further, the angle formed by the inclined surface 21 of the inclined member 2 and the bottom surface 12 of the mold main body 1, i.e., the inclination angle θ, is preferably 10. Above 70. The following is more preferably 15° or more and 60° or less, and particularly preferably 20. Above 40°. When the inclination angle is too small, the flow rate of the Cu-Ga alloy melt flowing over the inclined surface 21 becomes too slow. 'The solidification state of the Cu-Ga alloy melt at the initial stage of casting and the end of casting is different, not only the Cu after casting. The -Ga alloy ingot is cracked, and there is a problem that solidification of the Cu-Ga alloy melt occurs on the inclined surface 21 and solidification cannot be performed in the mold main body 1. When the inclination angle Θ is too large, the flow rate of the Cu-Ga alloy melt flowing through the inclined surface 21 becomes too fast, and the Cu-Ga alloy melt injected into the mold body 1 undergoes strong convection, while casting After the Cu-Ga alloy ingot is cracked. Further, the area of the gap G formed between the distal end portion 22 of the inclined member 2 and the inner circumferential surface of the mold main body 1 is preferably 500 mm 2 or more and 3,000 mm 2 or less, more preferably 600 mm 2 or more and 2100 mm 2 or less. When the gap G area is too small, the Cu-Ga alloy melt flowing along the inclined surface 21 cannot be smoothly injected into the mold main body 1. There is a solidification of the Cu-Ga alloy melt on the inclined surface 21, and the mold is molded. The problem that the main body cannot be solidified. Further, when the gap G area is excessively large, the Cu-Ga alloy melt injected into the mold main body 1 is strongly convected, and the cast Cu-Ga alloy ingot is cracked. -22-201247338 Further, the length X2 of the longitudinal direction X when the inclined member 2 is viewed from the normal direction Z may be appropriately set in accordance with the inclination angle Θ of the inclined surface 21, the area of the gap G, and the like. Further, the casting mold 100 of the present embodiment includes the cooling suppressing member 3. The cooling suppressing member 3 is disposed on the outer peripheral surface of the mold main body 1 in a normal direction Z with respect to the bottom surface 12 of the mold main body 1 so as to cover a predetermined region on the lower side in the normal direction Z in which the bottom surface 12 is formed. This cooling suppressing member 3 can suppress the Cu-Ga alloy melt injected into the mold main body 1 from being excessively cooled. In this way, the gap G formed between the front end portion 22 and the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body 1 after flowing along the inclined surface 21 of the inclined member 2 is injected into the molten metal in the mold main body 1 along the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body 1. The liquid allows the melt to be uniformly solidified in the mold main body 1 because rapid cooling can be prevented. The cooling suppressing member 3 is not particularly limited as long as it exerts at least one of the heat retaining effect and the heating effect on the lower portion of the mold main body 1. Examples of the heat insulating material that can exhibit the heat insulating effect include glass wool and KRECA felt which are generally used as heat insulating materials, and aramid fiber sheets which are used as a refractory material, and can be used as a heating material which can exhibit a heating effect. List tube heaters, etc. Further, the length of the cooling suppression member 3 in the normal direction Z (the height of the cooling suppression member 3) Z3 is preferably 1/4 or more with respect to the length of the normal direction z of the mold main body 1 (the height of the mold main body 1) Z2. /4 or less, more preferably 3/10 or more and 2/3 or less, and particularly preferably 2/5 or more and 3/5 or less. In this way, the gap G formed between the front end portion 22 and the inner peripheral surface of the main body of the mold main -23-201247338 is flowed along the inclined surface 21 of the inclined member 2, and is injected along the inner peripheral surface of the mold main body 1. The molten liquid in the mold main body 1 can more reliably prevent rapid cooling from occurring. Further, the cooling suppressing member 3 can adjust the highest reaching temperature (° C.) on the lower side of the mold main body 1 to 22% or more of the temperature (casting temperature ° C ) of the Cu-Ga alloy melt before being injected into the mold main body 1 . % or less (preferably), more preferably 25% or more and 50% or less. When the temperature of the mold main body 1 by the cooling suppression member 3 is too low, the heat insulating or heating effect on the lower side region of the mold main body 1 is not good. Since the temperature gradient in the normal direction Z of the mold main body 1 becomes large, the Cu-Ga alloy ingot after casting is likely to be cracked. Further, in the case where the mold main body 1 of the cooling suppression member 3 is adjusted to have a too high temperature, since the cooling rate is too slow, the stress concentrates on the final solidification position of the Cu-Ga alloy melt, which not only causes the Cu-Ga alloy casting after casting. Cracking occurs and there is a segregation. Fig. 3 is a perspective view showing a structure of a casting mold according to a second embodiment of the present invention. In Fig. 3, in order to make the internal structure of the casting mold 200 easy to understand, one side wall of the mold main body 1 is omitted. Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view showing the structure of a casting mold 200. The casting mold 200' is similar to the casting mold 10 of the first embodiment, and the same reference numerals will be given to the corresponding portions, and the description thereof will be omitted. The casting mold 200' has a structure in which the guide portion 200A (the Cu-Ga alloy melt supplied to the opening portion 1 1 of the mold main body 1 is guided to reduce the kinetic energy of the melt and injected into the mold main body 1) and the foregoing Guide-24 · 201247338 The same structure as the casting mold 1〇〇 is used except for the 100A. The guide portion 1 of the casting mold 100 is formed of i tilt members 2. The guide portion 200A of the casting mold 200 is the first inclined member 20 1 and the second inclined member. 2 0 2 constitutes. The first inclined member 209 has a first inclined surface 211 1 which extends from the short side of the opening portion 11 of the mold main body 1 toward the inner side in the longitudinal direction X. The inner side is inclined to approach the bottom surface 12 of the mold main body 1. The second inclined member 202 is disposed to face the first inclined member 201 in the longitudinal direction X (the direction parallel to the bottom surface 12). The second inclined member 202 has a second inclined surface 202 1 which extends from the other short side of the opening portion 11 of the mold main body 1 toward the inner side in the longitudinal direction X. The inner side is inclined to approach the bottom surface 12 of the mold main body i. The front end portion of the first inclined member 201 (the portion closest to the bottom surface 12 of the mold main body 1), that is, the front end portion 20?2, does not contact the inclined surface of the second inclined member 202, that is, the second inclined surface 2021; The front end portion of the second inclined member 202 (the portion closest to the bottom surface 12 of the mold main body 1), that is, the second front end portion 2 0 2 2 does not contact the inclined surface of the first inclined member 210, that is, the first inclined surface 201 1. Further, the first inclined member 201 and the second inclined member 202 are disposed such that the i-th front end portion 2012 and the second distal end portion 2022 are located at different positions in the direction (longitudinal direction X) parallel to the bottom surface 12 of the mold main body 1. Further, in the present embodiment, the first inclined member 209 and the second inclined member 202 are arranged such that the first front end portion 2012 and the second front end portion -25 - 201247338 portion 202 2 are located on the bottom surface 12 of the mold main body 1 . Further, in the parallel parallel plane, a gap G1 is formed between the first front end portion 2012 and the second front end portion 2022 in the central portion in the longitudinal direction X of the opening portion 1 of the mold main body 1. The shape of the first slanting member 201 and the second slanting member 202 is not particularly limited, and examples of the shape from the short side direction Y of the opening portion 11 of the mold main body 1 include a triangle, a trapezoid, a rectangle, and the like. In addition, the position of the first slanting member 201 and the second slanting member 202 is a Cu-Ga alloy ingot after the casting, as long as the position of the amount of the Cu-Ga gold melt injected into the mold main body 1 can be sufficiently ensured. The position of the desired size is not particularly limited. In the first inclined structure 201 and the second inclined member 202, the height of the inner diameter Z1 of the mold main body 1 is "1". The lowermost position of the first inclined member 201 and the second inclined member 202 is preferably arranged in the lowermost position. The place where the lowest part of the mold main body 1 is 1⁄2 or more is more preferably placed in a place of 3 / 5 or more, and is placed in a place of 2/3 or more. When the lowermost portion of each of the first inclined member 201 and the second inclined member 2〇2 is disposed excessively on the lower side in the mold main body, the obtained Cu_Ga gold ingot becomes smaller with respect to the internal volume of the mold main body 1 In the mold main body 1, it is preferable to arrange the Cu-Ga alloy cast by the casting method using the casting mold 200 of the above structure on the upper side as much as possible, and the Cu-Ga alloy melt is oriented toward the opening provided in the mold main body 1.

The molten material flowing along the first inclined surface 201 1 reaches the first distal end portion 2012, and the molten liquid flowing along the second inclined surface 202 1 reaches the second distal end portion 2022. Then, the molten liquid that has reached the first distal end portion 20 12 and the second distal end portion 2022 is injected into the mold main body 1. When the Cu-Ga alloy ingot is produced by the melt casting method using the casting mold 200 of the present embodiment, as described above, the Cu-G a alloy melt is not directly injected into the prayer main body 1 from the opening U. It flows along the first inclined surface 201 1 and the second inclined surface 202 1 and is formed between the first front end portion 2012 and the second front end portion 2022 in the central portion in the longitudinal direction X of the opening portion 11 of the mold main body 1 . The gap G1 is injected into the mold body 1, so that the kinetic energy of the melt when injected into the mold body 1 can be reduced. Thus, the convection of the molten liquid when injected into the mold main body 1 can be suppressed, so that the molten metal can be uniformly solidified in the mold main body 1. Therefore, a large Cu-Ga alloy ingot can be produced by suppressing cracking. Further, the angle formed by the first inclined surface 201 1 of the first inclined member 201 and the bottom surface 12 of the mold main body 1 , that is, the first inclined angle θ 1 and the second inclined surface 202 1 of the second inclined member 202 and the mold main body The angle formed by the bottom surface 12 of 1, that is, the second inclination angle θ2 is preferably 10. Above 70° or less is more preferably 15. Above 60. Below, the special is 20. Above 40 ° below. When the first inclination angle 01 and the second inclination angle 02 are too small, the flow rate when the C u - G a alloy melt flows through the first inclined surface 2 〇丨1 and the second inclined surface 2 0 2 1 Slow, at the beginning of casting and at the end of casting -27- 201247338

When the first inclination angle Θ1 and the second inclination angle Θ2 are excessively large, the flow rate when the Cu_Ga alloy melt flows through the first inclined surface 20 1 1 and the second inclined surface 202 1 becomes too fast, and is injected into the mold main body 1 The Cu-Ga alloy melt undergoes strong convection, and the cast Cu-Ga alloy ingot is cracked.

Further, when the area of the gap G 1 is excessively large, the Cu-Ga alloy melt injected into the mold main body 1 is strongly convected, and the cast Cu-Ga alloy ingot is cracked. The first inclined member 201 is again The length X3 of the longitudinal direction X when the normal direction Z is observed, and the length X4 of the longitudinal direction X when the second inclined member 202 is viewed from the normal direction Z -28 - 201247338, according to the aforementioned first inclined surface 2011 The first inclination angle θ 1 , the second inclination angle 第 2 of the second inclined surface 2 0 21 , the area of the gap G 1 , and the like may be appropriately set.

Thus, the convection of the molten metal when injected into the mold main body 1 can be suppressed, and the molten metal can be uniformly solidified in the mold main body 1. Therefore, a large-sized Cu-Ga alloy ingot can be produced by suppressing the occurrence of cracks.

In the case where the Cu-Ga alloy ingot is produced by the melt casting method using the casting mold 400 having the above-described structure, the Cu-Ga alloy melt is directed toward the first inclined member 40 1 provided in the opening 1 1 of the mold main body 1. The inclined surface, that is, the first inclined surface 401 is supplied. The Cu-Ga alloy melt supplied to the first inclined surface 401 1 of the first inclined member 4 , flows partially along the first inclined surface 4 0 1 1 , and the remaining portion is splashed from the first inclined surface 4 0 1 1 After the second inclined surface 4 0 2 1 of the second inclined member 420, the second inclined surface 4021 flows. The molten metal flowing along the first inclined surface 4011 reaches the first front end portion 4012, and then falls onto the second inclined surface 402 1 and flows along the second inclined surface 4021" flows along the second inclined surface 402 1 The passed melt reaches the second tip end portion 4022. Then, the molten liquid that has reached the second tip end portion 4022 is injected into the mold main body 1. When the Cu-Ga alloy ingot is produced by the melt casting method using the casting mold 400 of the present embodiment, as described above, the Cu-Ga alloy melt is not directly injected into the mold main body 1 from the opening portion 1, but along the After the first inclined surface 4〇11 and the second inclined surface 4021 flow, the second tip end portion 4022 is injected into the mold main body 1. Therefore, the kinetic energy of the melt when injected into the mold main body 1 can be reduced. Thus, the convection of the molten metal when injected into the mold main body 1 can be suppressed, and the molten metal can be uniformly solidified in the mold main body 1. Therefore, a large Cu-Ga alloy ingot can be produced by suppressing the occurrence of cracks. -33-201247338 (Cu-Ga alloy ingot) The Cu-Ga alloy ingot of the present embodiment is composed of a Cu-Ga alloy produced by a melt casting method. The Ga composition ratio in the Cu-Ga alloy is not particularly limited, but is preferably l〇at% or more and 50 at% or less, more preferably 20 at% or more and 40 at% or less. Further, in the present invention, "at%" means the atomic percentage, and refers to the atomic number of a specific element (Ga) in the case where the total number of atoms of the Cu-Ga alloy is 1 Å, which is a synonym for "mol%".

Ga濃度低的情況,由於會在Cu中產生Ga固溶,可 減少龜裂發生。Ga濃度過高的情況,由於超過固溶界 限,會形成金屬間化合物而使龜裂發生變多,且在鑄造時 容易引起偏析。When the Ga concentration is low, the formation of Ga solid solution in Cu can reduce the occurrence of cracks. When the Ga concentration is too high, the intermetallic compound is formed to exceed the solid solution limit, and the occurrence of cracks is increased, and segregation is likely to occur during casting.

Ga組成比較大的Cu-Ga合金,是屬於硬度高之脆性 材料,因此在將Cu-Ga合金鑄錠藉由熔鑄法製造時會有發 生龜裂之虞。針對此,本實施方式的Cu-Ga合金鑄錠,是 使用本责施方式的鑄造用鑄模1〇〇,200,300,400(可減少注 入鑄模主體1內時之熔融液的動能)而藉由熔鑄法所製作 出,因此能夠抑制龜裂發生。 (濺鍍靶) 本實施方式的濺鍍靶,是使用本實施方式的Cu-Ga合 金鑄錠所製作出。作爲將Cu-Ga合金鑄錠加工成濺鍍靶的 方法,可採用:線放電加工、放電加工、雷射加工、使用 硏削機之鑽石切斷加工、切削加工、噴水加工、線鋸、鋸 片切割等一般的方法。在這些加工方法中,考慮到Cu-Ga -34- 201247338 合金屬於硬度高之脆性材料時,較佳爲線放電加工、放電 加工、雷射加工、線鋸、噴水加工等,更佳爲線放電加 工、線鋸,最佳爲線放電加工。 將Cu-Ga合金鑄錠藉由線放電加工予以加工成濺鍍靶 的情況,較佳爲使用0.1mm以上、0.4mm以下的線材, 更佳爲使用0.2mm以上、0.4mm以下的線材。此外,線 放電加工的切斷速度(加工速度)較佳爲0.1mm/分以上、 8mm/分以下,更佳爲0.1mm/分以上、3mm/分以下。關於 線材的粗細,當過細時,成爲線材在加工中斷裂的原因;

Therefore, when a Cu-Ga alloy ingot is produced by a melt casting method, cracks may occur. In the Cu-Ga alloy ingot according to the present embodiment, the casting molds of the casting method 1 〇〇, 200, 300, 400 (the kinetic energy of the melt when the injection molding body 1 is injected) are used by the casting method. It is produced so that cracking can be suppressed. (Splating target) The sputtering target of the present embodiment is produced by using the Cu-Ga alloy ingot of the present embodiment. As a method of processing a Cu-Ga alloy ingot into a sputtering target, wire discharge machining, electric discharge machining, laser machining, diamond cutting processing using a boring machine, cutting processing, water jet processing, wire saw, sawing General methods such as sheet cutting. Among these processing methods, it is preferable that the Cu-Ga-34-201247338 alloy is a brittle material having a high hardness, and is preferably a wire discharge machining, an electric discharge machining, a laser machining, a wire saw, a water jet processing, etc., and more preferably a wire discharge. Processing, wire saw, the best for wire electrical discharge machining. When the Cu-Ga alloy ingot is processed into a sputtering target by wire electric discharge machining, it is preferable to use a wire of 0.1 mm or more and 0.4 mm or less, and more preferably a wire of 0.2 mm or more and 0.4 mm or less. Further, the cutting speed (machining speed) of the wire electric discharge machining is preferably 0.1 mm/min or more and 8 mm/min or less, more preferably 0.1 mm/min or more and 3 mm/min or less. Regarding the thickness of the wire, when it is too fine, it becomes a cause of breakage of the wire during processing; and regarding the processing speed, when it is too slow, productivity is lowered, and when it is too fast, it becomes a cause of cracking. The sputtering target of the present embodiment is produced by using a Cu-Ga alloy ingot of the present embodiment which can suppress the occurrence of cracks, and is therefore suitable for use as a sputtering target for forming a thin film type solar cell. . (Manufacturing Method of Cu-Ga Alloy Ingot) In the method for producing a Cu-Ga alloy ingot according to the present embodiment, first, a necessary amount of copper (Cu) and gallium (Ga) is incorporated in the crucible. The amount of the insertion at this time can be appropriately selected in accordance with the size of the vortex, the size of the casting mold, and the number of casting molds. Then, the chamber placed in the crucible is depressurized to below 10 - iTorr. After confirming that the pressure in the chamber is reduced to 10 iTorr or less, the temperature is raised to a temperature of 800 ° C to 1 00 ° C at a temperature increase rate of 5 to 20 ° C / min, preferably. When the heating rate is too fast, there is a possibility of causing a sudden boiling, and the productivity is lowered when the heating rate is too slow. The holding temperature (casting temperature) after the temperature rise is changed in accordance with the melting point of the alloy composition, the material of the casting mold, the volume, the specific heat, the density, and the like. For example, when the melting point of the alloy composition is 850 ° C, the holding temperature after heating (casting temperature) is preferably 190 ° C or higher, 100 ° C or lower, more preferably 930 ° C or higher. , 9 7 0 °C or less. When the temperature is raised in the atmosphere, problems such as oxidation of the raw material occur, and the yield is lowered. Then, it is preferably maintained at a temperature (casting temperature) after the temperature rise for 30 minutes to 12 hours, more preferably for 1 hour to 5 hours. Thus, a mixture of C u and Ga is made into an alloy liquid (melt). When the holding time is too short, the alloy may not be completely mixed, or the gas remaining in the alloy liquid may not be completely removed, and the step of further high vacuum may become the cause of the sudden boiling. In addition, when the holding time is too long, productivity is lowered. Then, at the above casting temperature, the pressure is reduced to 8xl (T4T〇rr or less, preferably 5xl (T4T〇rr' is maintained for 30 minutes or longer, 12 hours or shorter, preferably for 1 hour or longer, 5 hours or shorter. The reason why the temperature is raised to the casting temperature and then decompressed to a high vacuum is that excessive decompression before heating may cause a sudden boiling. When the pressure in the chamber during casting is high, the cast Cu-G a alloy ingot will be inside. There is gas entrapment, which is the cause of internal defects. In the case of too low, the pump performance must be improved, resulting in high cost of the manufacturing machine. When the holding time is short, the gas present in the melt cannot be completely removed. The reason for being an internal defect. On the contrary, if it is too long, the productivity will be lowered. -36- 201247338 After the above steps, the Cu-Ga alloy is melted in the crucible to maintain the temperature in the chamber at the aforementioned casting temperature. In the state of 8x1 (less than T4Torr), the above-described melt molding in the crucible is carried out using the molds of the present embodiment, 100, 300, 300, 400. Specifically, by tilting toward the casting mold 100 The inclined surface 21, the first inclined surface 201, 30 1 1, 40 1 1 of the first 201, 301, 401 of the casting molds 200, 300, 400 are supplied by injecting molten metal into the mold main body 1 and casting, and again casting 00, 200, 300, One of the 40 turns may be arranged in a row, and the casting may be performed. Then, after the gold cast in the mold main body 1 is naturally cooled to room temperature, Cu-Ga is bonded from the mold main body 1, preferably The Cu-Ga gas pressure taken out from the mold main body 1 is under vacuum or under vacuum (it is preferably subjected to heat treatment from the viewpoint of equipment, etc., and the temperature at the time of heat treatment is 450 ° C to 7 ° C, more preferably 500) °C or more, 600 ° C or less.
