In with the field for the magnetic recording media that HDD (hard disk drive) is representative, as the thin magnetic film for undertaking record Material, use using Co, Fe or Ni as ferromagnetism metal as the material of matrix.For example, using return to zero in face The recording layer of hard disk uses always with Co Co-Cr base as main component or Co-Cr-Pt base strong magnetic alloy.In addition, using close The recording layer of the hard disk of the perpendicular magnetic recording of Nian Laiyi functionization is used comprising with Co Co-Cr-Pt as main component more The composite material of base strong magnetic alloy and non-magnetic inorganic composition granule.Also, from the viewpoint of productivity height, hard disk equimagnetic note The thin magnetic film of recording medium is sputtered by using by the ferromagnetic material sputtering target of ingredient of above-mentioned material in most cases And it makes.
On the other hand, the packing density of magnetic recording media rapidly increases year by year, it is believed that in the future from 100 current gigabit ratios The surface density of special (Gbit)/square inch reaches 1,000,000,000,000 bits (Tbit)/square inch.Packing density reach 1,000,000,000,000 bits/ When square inch, the size of record bit (bit) is less than 10nm, in such a case, it is possible to expect as caused by thermal fluctuation Superparamagnetic becomes problem, and is anticipated that the magnetic recording media used till now, for example by adding in Co-Cr based alloy Add Pt and improves the material of crystal magnetic anisotropy or further add B thereto and reduce the magnetic coupling between magnetic-particle The medium of conjunction is insufficient.This is because showing ferromagnetic particle needs with 10nm dimensionally stable below has Higher crystal magnetic anisotropy.
For the above reasons, there is L10The FePt phase of structure attracts attention as super high-density recording medium material. In addition, having L10The FePt phase of structure is excellent in terms of corrosion resistance, inoxidizability, therefore is expected to be suitable as record Jie The material of matter.The FePt phase has the order-disorder change temperature in 1573K, even if usually alloy is quenched from high temperature Fire also due to quickly ordering reaction and have L10Structure.Also, FePt phase is used to use as super high-density recording medium When material, it is desirable that develop the FePt particle for ordering of sening as an envoy to and consistently dispersed with the state of Magnetic isolation high density as far as possible and orientation Technology.
In view of the foregoing, proposing is made using non-magnetic materials such as carbon with L10The FePt magnetic-particle magnetic of structure every The granular texture thin magnetic film from obtained by is used as the side of the magnetic recording media of the next-generation hard disk using heat-assisted magnetic recording mode Case.The granular texture thin magnetic film forms such as flowering structure: making magnetic-particle magnetic insulation each other by the intervention of namagnetic substance. As particulate-type magnetic recording media and relative known document, patent document 1, patent document 2, patent document can be enumerated 3, patent document 4, patent document 5, patent document 6, patent document 7, patent document 8 etc..
Above-mentioned magnetic recording layer is constituted by the magnetic phase such as Fe-Pt alloy and by the non-magnetic phase that the magnetism is isolated, as non- One of the material of magnetic phase, carbon are effective.Wherein graphite has crystal structure made of Laminated Graphite alkene piece, therefore graphite has Have a two-dimensional directionality, i.e., with conduction is easy on the direction of piece surface level, be difficult to lead on the direction vertical with piece surface Electricity.Therefore, if the orientation of graphite can be aligned, the electric current in sputtering can be stablized, so as to inhibit paradoxical discharge.
Usually using this magnetic recording layer of the film forming of the sputtering target made of sintered body, but pass through powder sintering, it is difficult to It is aligned the orientation of the graphite in sintered body, as a result there are problems that desired stable sputtering characteristic cannot be obtained.

It should be noted that cannot ensure to be enough to calculate in the case where the visual field of microscope photo is narrower than above range The parameter of average thickness, on the other hand, in the case where bigger than above range, the measurement of the length of every phase is become difficult, therefore Preferable field of view is 1000 μm~1500 μm.
In addition, sputtering target of the invention is characterized in that, the burnishing surface in the section vertical with sputter face is (smart based on polishing The mirror finish face of processing) in, the average length of Fe-Pt alloy phase is 20 μm or more.Although Fe-Pt alloy is preparatory before mixing Flattening or sheet processing are carried out, but by having a degree of length in the longitudinal direction, makes C phase perpendicular to sputter face Direction on stratiform easy to form.
Preferably, in the burnishing surface in the section vertical with sputter face, the average thickness of Fe-Pt alloy phase be 10 μm with On, and the average length of the alloy phase is 30 μm or more.In addition, if the average thickness of Fe-Pt alloy phase is blocked up or average Length is too long, then is 100 μm hereinafter, or average length is 400 it is advantageous to average thickness because becoming difficult orientation alignment μm or less.
The average length of the following Fe-Pt alloy phase for calculating vertical cross-section.
Firstly, shot in falling into the longitudinally, laterally visual field of each 1000 μm~1500 μm of range any 3 positions with The microscope photo in the vertical section of sputter face.At this point, adjusting the straight line relative to sputter face vertical direction, make itself and microscope The longitudinal direction of photo is parallel.Then, straight line is drawn along the lateral of microscope photo in any 3 positions for each microscope photo.This When, straight line is alternately through Fe-Pt alloy phase, C phase, the phase of other addition element.Then, by the straight line from beginning through mutually to this The length of the line segment mutually terminated is defined as the length of phase, measures the length of each phase of Fe-Pt alloy phase, and calculating locates 3 Position × microscope photo 3 is opened=amounts to the average value of the measured value of 9 positions.
It should be noted that cannot ensure to be enough to calculate in the case where the visual field of microscope photo is narrower than above range The parameter of average length, on the other hand, in the case where bigger than above range, the measurement of the length of every phase is become difficult, therefore Preferable field of view is 1000 μm~1500 μm.
In addition, sputtering target of the invention is characterized in that, the burnishing surface in the section with sputter face level is (smart based on polishing The mirror finish face of processing) in, the average length of Fe-Pt alloy phase is 20 μm or more.Mutually there is certain journey by Fe-Pt alloy The length and width of degree makes C phase stratiform easy to form on the direction perpendicular to sputter face.
It is highly preferred that in the burnishing surface in the section vertical with sputter face, the average thickness of Fe-Pt alloy phase be 20 μm with On and/or the average length of the alloy phase be 20 μm or more, and in the burnishing surface in the section with sputter face level, Fe-Pt The average length of alloy phase is 20 μm or more.
It should be noted that as shown in figure 8, " section with sputter face level " be equivalent in hot pressing be pressurized Face.

Firstly, shot in falling into the longitudinally, laterally visual field of each 1000 μm~1500 μm of range any 3 positions with The microscope photo in the section of sputter face level.At this point, since Fe-Pt alloy does not have the direction of 2 dimensions mutually in horizontal cross-section Property, thus can in any direction on shot.Then, each microscope photo is shone in any 3 positions along microscope The lateral of piece draws straight line.At this point, straight line is alternately through Fe-Pt alloy phase, C phase, the phase of other addition element.Then, this is straight Line is mutually defined as the length of phase from beginning through to the length of the line segment mutually terminated, measures the length of each phase of Fe-Pt alloy phase Degree calculates 3 positions × microscope photo 3 is opened=that locate and amounts to the average value of the measured value of 9 positions.
It should be noted that cannot ensure to be enough to calculate in the case where the visual field of microscope photo is narrower than above range The parameter of average length, on the other hand, in the case where bigger than above range, the measurement of the length of every phase is become difficult, therefore Preferable field of view is 1000 μm~1500 μm.
The preferred Pt content of sputtering target of the invention is 5 moles of % or more and 60 mole of % hereinafter, rest part is Fe and C. This is because desired magnetic characteristic cannot be obtained sometimes if Pt content is lower than 5 moles of % or more than 60 moles %.
In addition, for sputtering target of the invention, preferably C content be 10 moles of % or more and 70 mole of % hereinafter, its Remaining part is divided into Fe and Pt.This is because desired magnetic characteristic cannot be obtained sometimes when C content is lower than 10 moles of %, it is another Aspect, when C content is more than 70 moles of %, C agglomerates, so as to cause powder increase.
In addition, in order to improve magnetic characteristic, sputtering target of the invention preferably comprises 0.5 mole of % or more and 10 mole of % or less Selected from by one or more of B, Ru, Ag, Au, Cu group formed element as addition element.In addition, by addition selected from by Oxide, nitride, carbide, carbonitride composition one or more of group inorganic material as added material, can be with Further increase magnetic characteristic.
The manufacturing method of sputtering target of the invention is illustrated.
Firstly, melting and casting Fe raw material and Pt raw material, to make Fe-Pt alloy pig, and will using general lathe etc. Fe-Pt alloy chip is made in it.At this point, it is preferred that approach when cutting is 0.1mm~0.3mm.In addition, the Fe raw material used and Pt raw material can be arbitrary shape, as long as it is can be with the shape of induction heating.
The reasons why alloy is made by melting and casting is, in the case where sintered alloy is made in Fe powder and Pt powder, is formed Porous structure, Fe-Pt alloyed powder is pulverized in aftermentioned flaky process, as a result forms the small alloyed powder of partial size.
It can be with the ratio for forming suitably adjusting Fe raw material and Pt raw material of as expected Fe-Pt alloy.In addition, In the case where the metal powder for adding B, Ru, Ag, Au, Cu etc., preferably added while making Fe-Pt alloy pig.
Then, by the chip of Fe-Pt alloy using Blang's horizontal pulverizer crush until by sieve pore be 150 μm~ 400 μm of sieve.Then, it is classified using 63 μm of purposes sieve, uses residue on sieve as raw material.If Fe-Pt is closed The partial size of bronze is too small, then alloyed powder is passed through between crushing medium in subsequent process, it is difficult to carry out equably flattening Processing, therefore not preferably.
Then, it using medium stirring mill, crushes as flat or laminar (flaky process).When use has the tank of 5L When the medium stirring mill of capacity, it is preferable that use the yttria stabilized zirconia pearl of diameter 3mm~7mm as crushing medium, It carries out handling for about 2 hours~about 8 hours under the revolving speed of 300rpm.But the present invention is not limited to this conditions, and can be used and appoint Where method, as long as its processing capacity for being recognized as that the degree of being identical with this can be obtained.
By above-mentioned pulverizing process and flaky process, partial size can be obtained as 1 μm or more and 500 μm or less, average grain The fine and close Fe-Pt alloy powder that diameter is 50 μm~100 μm.
For C raw material powder, it is preferable to use flat or laminar graphite or thin slice graphite (number of plies of graphite is few Graphite).Thin slice graphite and common graphite-phase ratio have superior electric conductivity, therefore to inhibition paradoxical discharge and reduce powder Grain is effective.It is preferable to use partial size be 0.5 μm or more and 30 μm or less, average thickness is 0.5 μm or more and 30 μm of C below Raw material powder.If C raw material is meticulous, C raw material aggregates with one another, therefore not preferably, when C raw material is excessive, C raw material becomes itself The reason of paradoxical discharge, therefore not preferably.
Then, weigh above-mentioned raw materials powder with obtain it is desired form, the use of mortar or sieve pore is 150 μm~500 μm Sieve mixes these powder.
In inorganic matters such as metal powders or oxide, nitride, carbide, carbonitride such as addition B, Ru, Ag, Au, Cu In the case where material, it can be mixed in this stage.It is preferable to use 0.5 μm of partial size or more and 30 μm of these metal powders below End or powdered inorganic material.If raw material is meticulous, raw material aggregates with one another, therefore not preferably, if raw material is excessive, raw material is certainly Body becomes the reason of paradoxical discharge, therefore not preferably.
As described above, by using the Fe-Pt alloyed powder and thin slice graphite that have equably carried out flaky process, and The aforementioned metal powder or powdered inorganic material being added as needed are compared with the past as raw material powder, can further mention The orientation of C phase of the height in the target made of sintered body.
Then, mixed powder is filled into carbon molding jig, is formed, is sintered by the hot pressing that uniaxial direction is pressurizeed.? When the hot pressing of such single shaft direction pressurization, C, which hands down, is specifically orientated alignment.
Holding temperature when sintering depends on the composition of sputtering target, is in most cases 800 DEG C~1600 DEG C of temperature model It encloses.In addition, as needed, hot isostatic pressing processing can be carried out to the sintered body taken out from hot press.Hot isostatic pressing processing for The density for improving sintered body is effective.Hot isostatic pressing process when holdings temperature depending on sintered body composition, in most cases for 800 DEG C~1600 DEG C of temperature range.In addition, pressure is set as 100Mpa or more.By will in this way be obtained using lathe Sintered body is processed into desired shape, can make sputtering target of the invention.
