  • Sputtering also called sputtering, is a physical process in which atoms are released from a sputtering target by bombardment with high-energy ions and then transferred to the gas phase.
  • Sputtering targets containing the molybdenum and the metals tantalum (Ta) and / or niobium (Nb) are known, for example, from EP0285130A1

  • Molybdenum-based sputtering targets containing the metals tantalum and / or niobium are used, for example, for the production of electrode layers for thin-film transistors or contact layers for touch panels.
  • HIP hot isostatic pressing
  • gases such as oxygen contained in the powder mixture can not or only partially escape and it can lead to the formation of undesirable oxides in the structure (the microstructure) of the sputtering target.
  • the size of the middle hot isostatic pressing (HfP) manufacturable sputtering targets is limited by the size of the available HIP equipment. This limitation is even more pronounced when HIP is taken directly from the powder mixture, since the volume shrinkage can be about 50 to 70%.
  • a production over HIP has further the disadvantage that thereby almost no homogenization of the alloying elements occurs. Also, the diffusion may be hindered by oxides, for example.
  • Solid solution hardening is greatly reduced. This, in turn, drastically limits the production of large-format flat targets as well as tubular targets of greater length.
  • Tube targets with a greater length but in addition have a fine-grained and homogeneous structure to produce.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a sputtering target which fulfills the requirements described above and / or does not have the deficiencies described above.

  • An average content of the at least one metal from the group (tantalum, niobium) below 5 at% represents less of a challenge for the microstructure of the target since sputtering targets with such low contents can be more easily homogenized and also easier to transform (lower Solid solution strengthening).
  • the corrosion and etching behavior of one of a sputtering target with a tantalum and / or niobium content of less than 5 at% is still not sufficiently favorable.
  • a tantalum and / or niobium content of more than 15 at% is not desired since this no longer leads to a further optimization of the corrosion or etching behavior of a layer deposited by a corresponding sputtering target.
