Definitions
- the present invention relates to a tungsten sintered compact target for sputtering and a method for producing the same.
- the present invention relates to a tungsten target used for forming a gate electrode such as IC or LSI or a wiring material by a sputtering method, and a method for manufacturing the same.
- the electrode materials and wiring materials for this VLSI are generally manufactured by the sputtering method or the CVD method.
- the sputtering method has a relatively simple structure and operation of the apparatus, can easily form a film, and is low in cost. Therefore, it is more widely used than the CVD method.
- the tungsten target manufactured by the above-described electron beam melting method or the method of rolling and then sintering tungsten powder under pressure is mechanically brittle because the crystal grains are easily coarsened, and particle defects are generated on the sputtered film.
- the target of hot rolling after sintering of tungsten powder has a flexural strength of 40 OMPa or less, which is considered to be due to embrittlement peculiar to the rolled structure of the tungsten sintered material.
- tungsten rolled products Furthermore, a particularly problematic problem with tungsten rolled products is that, starting from a block-shaped sintered material and requiring a step of strong rolling, a thick target or a large target size is required. That requires a large sintered material. Such a large-sized sintered body is liable to cause non-uniform structure and density. Recently, there has been a growing demand for evening gates with a thickness of more than 1 Omm or large evening gates with a 400 mm or more evening get size. There is a problem that it cannot be handled.
- the CVD-W method shows good sputtering characteristics, it takes a lot of time and money to produce the target, and is inefficient, and at the same time, it has a columnar structure, so its mechanical strength is low. There is also the problem of being low. Disclosure of the invention

- a firing temperature of 2000 ° C. or more is required.
- crystal grains become coarser than 100 m.
- Pressure sintering at such a high temperature becomes an important problem, for example, the reaction between the die and the stainless steel in the hot press method or the reaction with the capsule material in the HIP, and the production cost increases.
- the present inventors have used ammonium metatungstate as a starting material, and have conducted hydrogen purification of tungstate crystals having a purity of 5 N or more obtained by performing high-purity purification to remove hydrogen gas and remove reaction product gas. by accelerating the rate of specific surface area of 0. 4m 2 / g ⁇ 0. 8m 2 / g, particle size 0. 4 ⁇ 0. 8 zm, and oxygen content 10 OO ppm or less, preferably 800 p pm A tungsten powder was prepared and used. If the oxygen content exceeds 1000 ppm, the sinterability deteriorates. Therefore, the lower the oxygen content of the tundastene powder used, the better.
- the total amount of alkali metals such as Na and K that affect semiconductor characteristics is 1 ppm or less
- the total amount of radioactive elements such as U and Th is 10 ppb or less
- the pressure start temperature exceeds 1200 ° C, crystal grains grow and the sinterability deteriorates. Also, it takes 2000 to obtain a closed pore density (93% or more) that enables capsule-free HIP.
- a hot press temperature of at least ° C is required, and there are problems as described below. Therefore, it is desirable to set the pressurization start temperature at 1200 ° C or less.
- the hot pressing temperature As described above, setting the hot pressing temperature to 2000 ° C or more is effective for densification, but causes problems such as coarsening of crystal grains and reaction with dies. It is desirable to press.
- hot pressing the use of carbon sheets on the upper and lower surfaces can promote oxygen dissociation from the material.
- the HIP treatment is performed at a temperature of 1700 ° C. or more, preferably 1850 ° C. or more, and a pressing force of 1000 kgZcm 2 or more, preferably 1800 kgZcm 2 or more, so that the relative density is 99% or more and the average crystal is Tungsten targets with a grain size of 100 or less and an average grain size of 80 m or less can be obtained.
- the crystal grain shape is an isotropic shape without random grains unlike a rolled product, and is randomly oriented.
- the HIP processing can be performed in a capsule-free manner.
- the specific surface area of the tungsten powder is larger, the density of the tungsten sintered body after hot pressing is higher and the crystal structure is finer, so that the density can be easily increased by the HIP processing and the density after the HIP processing is higher.
