Definitions
- the present invention relates to an Ag alloy sputtering target for forming a reflective electrode film used for an organic electroluminescence (EL) element or a light emitting diode (LED).
- EL organic electroluminescence
- LED light emitting diode
- a bottom emission method that extracts light from the transparent substrate side
- a top emission method that extracts light on the opposite side of the substrate.
- the emission method is advantageous for high brightness.
- a reflective electrode film made of Al or an Al alloy or Ag or an Ag alloy is used as an anode metal film.
- a transparent conductive film such as indium tin oxide (ITO) or aluminum-added zinc oxide (AZO) is provided (see, for example, Patent Document 1). This transparent conductive film is provided for injecting holes into the organic EL layer because of its high work function.
- the reflective electrode film has a high reflectance in order to efficiently reflect the light emitted from the organic EL layer.
- the electrode has a low resistance.
- a material an Ag alloy and an Al alloy are known, but an Ag alloy is excellent because it has a high visible light reflectance as a material for obtaining a higher-luminance organic EL element.
- a sputtering method is employed to form the reflective electrode film on the organic EL element, and a silver alloy sputtering target is used (see, for example, Patent Document 2).
- Ag alloy films have been studied for conductive films such as lead wires for touch panels.
- a wiring film for example, when pure Ag is used, migration occurs and a short circuit failure is likely to occur. Therefore, adoption of an Ag alloy film has been studied.
- an Ag alloy in which In is added to Ag having high reflectivity and low resistance as a reflective electrode film material. Since the hardness of the target material is improved by adding In, warpage during machining can be suppressed. In particular, in the case of a large sputtering target, it is important to suppress warpage during machining. In addition, In has an effect of improving the corrosion resistance and heat resistance of the reflective electrode film formed by sputtering. This is because In refines the crystal grains in the reflective electrode film, reduces the surface roughness of the film, and also dissolves in Ag to increase the strength of the crystal grains and suppress recrystallization of the crystal grains. Therefore, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the reflectance of the reflective electrode film formed by sputtering. Improvement of the corrosion resistance and heat resistance of the reflective electrode film contributes to higher brightness and longer life of the organic EL element.
- the Ag alloy film serving as the anode in the organic EL element is required to have low resistance and high reflectance characteristics as a reflective electrode, and the surface roughness is sufficient to ensure the soundness of the transparent conductive film formed in the upper layer. Small is required. That is, when the surface roughness of the Ag alloy film is large, defects are generated in the upper transparent conductive film and further in the electroluminescent layer including the organic EL layer formed in a later step due to the unevenness of the Ag alloy film. As a result, the production yield of the organic EL panel is lowered. Further, the sulfur content contained in the process atmosphere sulfidizes the Ag alloy film, and the sulfidized region becomes a defect, which also causes a decrease in yield.
- an Ag alloy film having a sufficiently low resistance and a high reflectivity, and having a small surface roughness and high sulfidation resistance could not be obtained.
- a conductive film is used for a reflective film or a reflective electrode film of an LED, heat resistance capable of maintaining a good reflectance with respect to the heat generated by the LED is also required.
- the alloy film has a problem that sufficient heat resistance cannot be obtained.
- an Ag alloy sputtering target that can form a conductive film having low resistance and high reflectivity as well as low surface roughness and high sulfidation resistance and heat resistance. It was.
- Sb is added, and a thin Sb oxide is formed on the surface of the formed Ag alloy film, so that it has low resistance and high reflectivity.
- small surface roughness and high sulfidation resistance and heat resistance are achieved.
- the present invention solves this problem, can meet the demand for further refinement of the organic EL panel and the improvement of the yield, and can further reduce abnormal discharge and splash.
- An object is to provide a sputtering target. It is another object of the present invention to provide an Ag—In alloy sputtering target that can suppress a decrease in reflectivity even after heat treatment of the Ag—In alloy thin film.
- the present inventors include an element that is contained in a raw material powder for producing a sputtering target and can be oxidized by residual oxygen in a dissolved atmosphere to form an oxide, that is, Si, Cr, Focusing on Fe and Ni, by reducing the content of these Si, Cr, Fe and Ni, the formation of oxides intervening in the Ag alloy structure is suppressed, and abnormal discharge and splash during sputtering are reduced. I tried to do it. Furthermore, when an appropriate amount of Sb is added to the Ag—In alloy, a decrease in reflectivity due to heat treatment can be suppressed.
- An Ag—In alloy sputtering target according to the present invention contains In: 0.1 to 1.5 atomic%, the balance is composed of Ag and inevitable impurities, and the elements: Si, Cr, Fe And each content of Ni is 30 ppm or less, It is characterized by the above-mentioned.
- the Ag—In alloy sputtering target of (1) is characterized in that the total content of each of the elements: Si, Cr, Fe and Ni is 90 ppm or less.
- the Ag—In alloy sputtering target of (1) is characterized in that the total content of each of the elements: Si, Cr, Fe, and Ni is 60 ppm or less.
- the Ag—In alloy sputtering target according to (1) or (2) is further characterized by containing Sb: 0.2 to 2.0 atomic%.
- the Ag—In alloy sputtering target according to (1) or (2) is characterized by containing Sb: 0.4 to 1.0 atomic%.
- the Ag—In alloy sputtering target according to any one of (1) to (3) may be manufactured by dissolving electrolytically purified Ag and adding In to the dissolved Ag. preferable.
- the Ag—In alloy sputtering target of (1) or (2) is preferably produced by dissolving electrolytically purified Ag and adding In and Sb to the dissolved Ag.
- the reason why the content ratio of the metal component element in the Ag—In alloy sputtering target of the present invention is limited as described above is as follows. (1) In: In is added because it has the effect of reducing the surface roughness of the alloy film and improving the sulfidation resistance and heat resistance, but if it is less than 0.1 atomic%, this effect is not sufficiently exhibited, while In If the content exceeds 1.5 atomic%, the specific resistance of the reflective electrode film increases and the reflectance decreases, which is not preferable. Therefore, the content ratio of In in the total metal component elements contained in the Ag—In alloy sputtering target of the present invention is set to In: 0.1 to 1.5 atomic%.
- Si, Cr, Fe and Ni Elements: Si, Cr, Fe, and Ni have a low solid solubility in Ag and are easily segregated at grain boundaries. Therefore, it is easily oxidized into oxygen by residual oxygen in the melting atmosphere, and the oxide is generated so as to intervene in the Ag alloy structure. Since this oxide causes abnormal discharge and splash, the content of each element was reduced as much as possible.
- a method for reducing the content of each element for example, a method was adopted in which an Ag raw material having a purity level of 3N was leached with nitric acid or sulfuric acid and then electrolytically purified using an electrolytic solution having a predetermined Ag concentration.
- the concentration of impurities existing in the Ag raw material such as Pb, Na, Mg, Al, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Co, Cu, Pd, Th, and U
- ICP inductively coupled plasma
- the reason why the contents of Si, Cr, Fe, and Ni are all 30 ppm or less is that when the content of each element exceeds 30 ppm, a large amount of oxide in the Ag alloy structure is interposed. This is because the occurrence of abnormal discharge and splash during sputtering cannot be suppressed. More preferably, it is 10 ppm or less. Furthermore, even if the content of each element is 30 ppm or less, if the total content of each element exceeds 90 ppm, the amount of oxide in the Ag alloy structure is not different from that intervening. Content is 90 ppm or less, More preferably, it is 60 ppm or less.
- Sb An Ag—In alloy film formed by sputtering with an Ag—In alloy sputtering target tends to increase the roughness of the film surface when heat treatment is performed in the process of forming a laminated film.
- the reflectance of the Ag—In alloy film is lower than that before the heat treatment.
- the Ag—In alloy sputtering target further contains Sb: 0.2 to 2.0 atomic% to suppress a decrease in reflectance before and after the heat treatment.
- the effect of suppressing the decrease in reflectivity after the heat treatment is that even if the amount of Sb added to the Ag—In alloy sputtering target is less than 0.2 atomic%, Sb is contained more than 2.0 atomic%.
- the amount of Sb added to the Ag—In alloy sputtering target was set to 0.2 atomic% or more and 2.0 atomic% or less. Even more preferably, the range of Sb is 0.4 atomic% or more and 1.0 atomic% or less.
- the Ag—In alloy sputtering target according to the present invention contains In: 0.1 to 1.5 atomic%, the balance is composed of Ag and inevitable impurities, and the elements: Si, Cr Since the respective contents of Fe and Ni are 30 ppm or less, when the reflective electrode film made of the Ag—In alloy is formed by sputtering, abnormal discharge and splash can be further reduced. Furthermore, since the total content of each of the elements: Si, Cr, Fe and Ni is 90 ppm or less, abnormal discharge and splash are further reduced when a reflective electrode film made of an Ag—In alloy is formed by sputtering. can do.
- the first embodiment is an Ag alloy containing In, in which the content of each of Si, Cr, Fe and Ni is 30 ppm or less, and the total content is 90 ppm or less.
- the second embodiment is an Ag alloy containing In and Sb, and each content of Si, Cr, Fe and Ni is 30 ppm or less, and the total content thereof This is the case of an Ag—In alloy sputtering target whose amount is 90 ppm or less.
- the above Ag raw material is melted in a high vacuum or an inert gas atmosphere, and an In raw material having a predetermined content is added to the resulting molten metal. Then, it melt
- the melting of Ag is performed in an atmosphere in which the atmosphere is once evacuated and then replaced with Ar. After melting, adding In to the molten Ag in the Ar atmosphere results in a composition ratio of Ag and In. Is preferable from the viewpoint of stably obtaining.
- the Ag raw material that was not selected under the above-mentioned conditions was used, and the contents of Si, Cr, Fe, and Ni were determined according to the present invention. It is outside the range of the content, or the total content of each is outside the range of the total content of the present invention.

本願は、2012年12月21日に日本に出願された特願2012-279065号、及び2013年10月25日に日本に出願された特願2013-221977号に基づき優先権を主張し、その内容をここに援用する。
(1)本発明によるAg-In合金スパッタリングターゲットは、In:0.1~1.5原子%を含有し、残部がAg及び不可避不純物からなる成分組成を有し、元素:Si、Cr、Fe及びNiの各々の含有量が、30ppm以下であることを特徴とする。
(2)前記(1)のAg-In合金スパッタリングターゲットは、前記元素:Si、Cr、Fe及びNiの各々の合計含有量が、90ppm以下であることを特徴とする。
(3)前記(1)のAg-In合金スパッタリングターゲットは、前記元素:Si、Cr、Fe及びNiの各々の合計含有量が、60ppm以下であることを特徴とする。
(4)前記(1)又は(2)のAg-In合金スパッタリングターゲットは、さらに、Sb:0.2~2.0原子%を含有することを特徴とする。
(5)前記(1)又は(2)のAg-In合金スパッタリングターゲットは、Sb:0.4~1.0原子%を含有することを特徴とする。
(6)前記(1)乃至(3)のいずれかに記載のAg-In合金スパッタリングターゲットは、電解精製したAgを溶解し、溶解されたAg中にInを添加することにより製造されることが好ましい。
(7)前記(1)又は(2)のAg-In合金スパッタリングターゲットは、電解精製したAgを溶解し、溶解されたAg中にIn及びSbを添加することにより製造されることが好ましい。
(1)In:
Inは、合金膜の表面粗さを低減すると共に耐硫化性及び耐熱性を高める効果を有するので添加するが、0.1原子%よりも少ないと、この効果が十分発揮されず、一方、Inを、1.5原子%を超えて含有させると、反射電極膜の比抵抗が増大し、反射率も低下してしまうので、好ましくない。したがって、この発明のAg-In合金スパッタリングターゲットに含まれる全金属成分元素に占めるInの含有割合をIn:0.1~1.5原子%に定めた。
元素:Si、Cr、Fe及びNiは、Agへの固溶度が小さく、結晶粒界などに偏析しやすい。そのため、溶解雰囲気中の残留酸素などにより酸化されて酸化物になりやすく、その酸化物が、Ag合金組織中に介在するように生成される。この酸化物は、異常放電発生、スプラッシュ発生の原因になるので、各元素の含有量をできる限り低減した。
各元素の含有量を低減する方法として、例えば、純度3NレベルのAg原料を硝酸又は硫酸で浸出した後、所定のAg濃度の電解液を用いて電解精製する方法を採用した。この方法によって、Ag原料中に存在する不純物である、Pb,Na,Mg、Al、P、S、Cl、K、Ca、Co、Cu、Pd、Th、Uなどの濃度を低減できる。そこで、この精製方法でこれらの不純物が低減されたAg原料について、ICP(誘導結合プラズマ)法による不純物分析を実施し、Si、Cr、Fe及びNiの濃度(含有量)が、いずれも30ppm以下であるAg原料を、Ag-In合金スパッタリングターゲットの製造原料とした。
Ag-In合金スパッタリングターゲットによりスパッタリング成膜されたAg-In合金膜では、積層膜形成の過程で熱処理が施されると、その膜表面の粗さが増加する傾向があるので、熱処理後においては、Ag-In合金膜の反射率が、熱処理前に比して低下する。そのため、Ag-In合金スパッタリングターゲットに、さらに、Sb:0.2~2.0原子%を含有させることにより、熱処理前後における反射率の低下を抑制した。この熱処理後の反射率低下抑制の効果は、Ag-In合金スパッタリングターゲットへのSbの添加量として、0.2原子%未満であっても、また、Sbが2.0原子%を超えて含有させても得られ難いことから、Ag-In合金スパッタリングターゲットへのSbの添加量は、0.2原子%以上、2.0原子%以下とした。より一層好ましくは、Sbの範囲は、0.4原子%以上、1.0原子%以下である。
先ず、本発明の第1の実施形態によるAg-In合金スパッタリングターゲットを製造するため、原料として、純度99.9質量%(3N)以上のAgを用意した。このAg原料について、上述した精製方法を実施して、形成されるAg-In合金スパッタリングターゲットに対しSi、Cr、Fe及びNiの含有量が、いずれも30ppm以下であり、且つ合計含有量が90ppm以下となる量だけSi、Cr、Fe及びNiを含むAg原料を選別した。この選別したAg原料と、純度99.99質量%以上のIn原料とを所定の組成となるように秤量した。
次に、本発明の第2の実施形態によるAg-In合金スパッタリングターゲットを製造する場合について、以下に説明する。
第1の実施形態の場合と同様に、ターゲット製造のための原料として、純度99.9質量%(3N)以上のAgを用意し、このAg原料について、上述した精製方法を実施して、形成されるAg-In合金スパッタリングターゲットに対しSi、Cr、Fe及びNiの含有量が、いずれも30ppm以下であり、且つ合計含有量が90ppm以下となる量だけSi、Cr、Fe及びNiを含むAg原料を選別した。この選別したAg原料と、純度99.99質量%以上のIn原料及びSb原料とを所定の組成となるように秤量した。
