本発明は、スパッタリングにより薄膜を形成するために用いられる化合物の生成を抑制したCrTi系合金およびスパッタリング用ターゲット材ならびにそれらの製造方法に関するものである。また、本発明は、CrTi系合金およびスパッタリング用ターゲット材を用いて製造した垂直磁気記録媒体およびその製造方法にも関する。
The present invention relates to a CrTi alloy, a sputtering target material, and a method for producing the same, in which the formation of a compound used for forming a thin film by sputtering is suppressed. The present invention also relates to a perpendicular magnetic recording medium manufactured using a CrTi-based alloy and a sputtering target material and a manufacturing method thereof.
一般に、CrTi系ターゲットは垂直磁気記録媒体の下地膜に使用されており、純Cr粉末と純Ti粉末を熱間成形することで得られる。そのCrTi系ターゲットは脆い化合物相を多く含み、スパッタリング時に脆い化合物相がパーティクルをもたらし、スパッタ膜へパーティクルが付着し製品歩留まりを下げている。そのため、CrTiターゲット中の化合物を減らす必要がある。
Generally, a CrTi-based target is used as a base film of a perpendicular magnetic recording medium, and can be obtained by hot forming a pure Cr powder and a pure Ti powder. The CrTi target contains a lot of fragile compound phases, and the fragile compound phases generate particles during sputtering, and the particles adhere to the sputtered film, reducing the product yield. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the compound in the CrTi target.
上記のようなCrTiターゲット中の化合物を減らすための対策として、例えば、特公昭64-2659号公報(特許文献1)に開示されているように、溶湯を急冷することで、化合物を減らしている。しかし、CrTi系ターゲットは粉末冶金法にて作製する材料で溶湯にすることは出来ないという問題がある。
As a measure for reducing the compound in the CrTi target as described above, for example, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 64-2659 (Patent Document 1), the molten metal is rapidly cooled to reduce the compound. . However, there is a problem that the CrTi target cannot be made into a molten metal by a material produced by powder metallurgy.
一方、通常粉末焼結体の場合は融点の80%程度の温度で成形するものである。例えば、CrTi系類似組成のものである、特開2003-226963号公報(特許文献2)に開示されているように、ホットプレスにて1200℃以上の温度で成形している。また、特開2002-212607号公報(特許文献3)に開示されているように、アプセット法にて1200℃の温度で成形している。しかし、この焼結温度が高ければ高いほど化合物は増加する傾向にある。
On the other hand, in the case of a normal powder sintered body, it is molded at a temperature of about 80% of the melting point. For example, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2003-226963 (Patent Document 2) having a CrTi-based similar composition, it is molded at a temperature of 1200 ° C. or higher by hot pressing. Further, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-212607 (Patent Document 3), molding is performed at a temperature of 1200 ° C. by an upset method. However, the higher the sintering temperature, the more the compound tends to increase.
これら特許文献2および3は、いずれも成形温度が高いために、ターゲット中の化合物が多く存在するために、スパッタ時にパーティクルを多く発生し、スパッタ膜の製品歩留りを低下させるという問題がある。
These Patent Documents 2 and 3 both have a problem in that since the molding temperature is high, there are many compounds in the target, so that many particles are generated during sputtering and the product yield of the sputtered film is lowered.
本発明者らは、今般、スパッタリングターゲット中の化合物を減少させることで、スパッタ膜に生じるパーティクルを減らすことが可能なCrTi系合金およびスパッタリング用ターゲット材を提供できるとの知見を得た。
The present inventors have now obtained the knowledge that a CrTi-based alloy and a sputtering target material capable of reducing particles generated in a sputtered film can be provided by reducing the compounds in the sputtering target.

On the other hand, when the temperature is higher than 1100 ° C., the value of the X-ray diffraction intensity ratio becomes large, and many particles are generated during sputtering, and the particles adhere to the sputtered film, thereby reducing the product yield. The hot forming temperature is more preferably set to 1000 ° C. or less for the upset method and 900 ° C. or less for the HIP method.
本発明の好ましい態様によれば、熱間成形後、成形体を、熱間成形温度から冷却速度144~36000℃/hrで冷却することで、化合物の生成抑制効果をさらに増大させることができる。すなわち、上記冷却速度による急冷をすることで高温相のCrTi固溶体を低温まで維持し、固溶体が化合物へ変態するのを抑制するためである。上記冷却速度の下限の好ましい速度は500℃/hr以上である。
According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, after the hot forming, the molded product is cooled at a cooling rate of 144 to 36000 ° C./hr from the hot forming temperature, whereby the effect of suppressing the formation of the compound can be further increased. In other words, the rapid cooling at the cooling rate maintains the CrTi solid solution in the high temperature phase to a low temperature and suppresses the solid solution from transforming into a compound. A preferable lower limit of the cooling rate is 500 ° C./hr or more.
本発明による垂直磁気記録媒体は、上記同様、原料粉末を800~1100℃、好ましくは800~1050℃、で熱間成形することによりCrTi系スパッタリングターゲット材をした後、CrTi系スパッタリングターゲット材を用いてスパッタリングを行って下地膜を形成させることを経て製造することができる。下地膜の形成以外の垂直磁気記録媒体製造工程は従来慣用される工程を適宜採用すればよく、特に限定されない。本発明の好ましい態様によれば、前述した理由により、熱間成形後、上記スパッタリングに先立ち、ターゲット材を、成形温度から冷却速度144~36000℃/hrで冷却するのが好ましく、その際、上記冷却速度の下限の好ましい速度は500℃/hr以上である。
In the perpendicular magnetic recording medium according to the present invention, as described above, the raw material powder is hot-formed at 800 to 1100 ° C., preferably 800 to 1050 ° C. to form a CrTi-based sputtering target material, and then the CrTi-based sputtering target material is used. Thus, it can be manufactured through sputtering to form a base film. The perpendicular magnetic recording medium manufacturing process other than the formation of the base film is not particularly limited as long as a conventionally used process is appropriately employed. According to a preferred aspect of the present invention, for the reasons described above, after hot forming, the target material is preferably cooled from the forming temperature at a cooling rate of 144 to 36000 ° C./hr prior to the sputtering. A preferable lower limit of the cooling rate is 500 ° C./hr or more.
以下、本発明について実施例によって具体的に説明する。
Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically described with reference to examples.
粒度が250μm以下の純Cr粉末と、粒度が150μm以下の純Ti粉末とを、表1に示されるCr-Ti合金組成に配合して混合した。得られた混合粉を、スチール材質からなる封入缶に充填し、到達真空度10-1Pa以上で脱気真空封入した。その後、HIP(熱間等方圧プレス)の場合は、加熱温度800~1100℃、成形圧力150MPa、加熱保持時間1時間の条件で成形した後、表1に示される条件で300℃まで冷却速度を空冷(No.3、4、5、7、11、12、13、15、16、19、21、22、23、25、29、30、31および33)または水冷(No.8、9、17、26、27および34)で制御して成形体を作製した。一方、アップセット法の場合は、加熱温度800~1100℃、成形圧力500MPa、加熱保持時間1時間の条件で成形した後、表1に示される条件で300℃まで冷却速度を空冷または水冷で制御し成形体を作製した。次いで、得られた成形体に機械加工を施してターゲットを作製した。
Pure Cr powder having a particle size of 250 μm or less and pure Ti powder having a particle size of 150 μm or less were blended in the Cr—Ti alloy composition shown in Table 1 and mixed. The obtained mixed powder was filled in a sealed can made of a steel material, and degassed and vacuum sealed at an ultimate vacuum of 10 −1 Pa or higher. Thereafter, in the case of HIP (hot isostatic pressing), after forming under conditions of heating temperature 800 to 1100 ° C., forming pressure 150 MPa, heating and holding time 1 hour, cooling rate to 300 ° C. under the conditions shown in Table 1 Is air-cooled (No. 3, 4, 5, 7, 11, 12, 13, 15, 16, 19, 21, 22, 23, 25, 29, 30, 31 and 33) or water-cooled (No. 8, 9, 17, 26, 27 and 34) to produce a molded body. On the other hand, in the case of the upset method, after molding under the conditions of a heating temperature of 800 to 1100 ° C., a molding pressure of 500 MPa, and a heating holding time of 1 hour, the cooling rate is controlled by air cooling or water cooling to 300 ° C. under the conditions shown in Table 1. A molded body was prepared. Next, the obtained molded body was machined to produce a target.
得られたターゲットについて、化合物ピーク比[I(Cr2 Ti)/I(Cr)]の測定を行った。この測定はX線源がCu-Kα線で、スキャンスピード4°/minの条件のX線回折にて行った。また、パーティクルの評価は、得られたターゲットを用いて、直径95mm、板厚1.75mmのアルミ基板上にDCマグネトロンスパッタにてArガス圧力0.9Paで成膜し、Optical Surface Analyzerにてパーティクル数をカウントした。これらの結果は表1に示されるとおりであった。
About the obtained target, the compound peak ratio [I (Cr 2 Ti) / I (Cr)] was measured. This measurement was performed by X-ray diffraction under the condition that the X-ray source was Cu—Kα ray and the scan speed was 4 ° / min. In addition, for the evaluation of the particles, using the obtained target, a film was formed on an aluminum substrate having a diameter of 95 mm and a plate thickness of 1.75 mm by DC magnetron sputtering at an Ar gas pressure of 0.9 Pa, and the particles were subjected to an optical surface analyzer. Counted the number. These results were as shown in Table 1.
表1に示す、比較例No.36、38および40は、成形温度が低く冷却速度が遅いために、得られた粉末成形体の密度が低かったので評価していない。比較例No.37、39および41は、いずれも成形温度が高く、かつ冷却速度が遅いために、X線回折強度比の値が大きく、かつパーティクル数が大きい。比較例No.42は、成形温度が低いために得られた粉末成形体の密度が低かったので評価していない。比較例No.43は、成形後の冷却速度が遅いために、X線回折強度比の値が大きく、かつパーティクル数が大きい。
Comparative Example No. shown in Table 1 36, 38 and 40 were not evaluated because the density of the obtained powder compact was low because the molding temperature was low and the cooling rate was slow. Comparative Example No. Since 37, 39 and 41 all have a high molding temperature and a low cooling rate, the value of the X-ray diffraction intensity ratio is large and the number of particles is large. Comparative Example No. No. 42 was not evaluated because the density of the obtained powder compact was low because the molding temperature was low. Comparative Example No. No. 43 has a large X-ray diffraction intensity ratio and a large number of particles because the cooling rate after molding is slow.
比較例No.44は、Ti含有量が低いために、スパッタ後の膜がアモルファスにならないために評価していない。比較例No.45は、Ti含有量が高いために、比較例No.44と同様に、スパッタ後の膜がアモルファスにならないために評価していない。これに対し、本発明例である、No.1~35は、いずれも本発明条件を満足していることから、X線回折強度を0.5以下に抑えることができ、かつパーティクル数が小さいことが分かる。
Comparative Example No. No. 44 is not evaluated because the Ti content is low and the film after sputtering does not become amorphous. Comparative Example No. No. 45 is a comparative example No. 45 because of its high Ti content. Similar to 44, the film after sputtering is not evaluated because it does not become amorphous. On the other hand, No. which is an example of the present invention. Since 1 to 35 all satisfy the conditions of the present invention, it can be seen that the X-ray diffraction intensity can be suppressed to 0.5 or less and the number of particles is small.
以上のように、本発明による原料粉末を800~1100℃の温度範囲で熱間成形し、かつ所望によりその熱間成形後に成形温度から冷却速度144~36000℃/hrの急速冷却することで、化合物生成量の少ないCrTi系合金およびCrTi系ターゲットを製造することが可能となり、スパッタ膜の製品歩留りの向上を図ることが出来た。
As described above, the raw material powder according to the present invention is hot-molded in a temperature range of 800 to 1100 ° C., and if desired, after the hot molding, rapid cooling is performed at a cooling rate of 144 to 36000 ° C./hr from the molding temperature.
