The present disclosure provides a magnetic thin film deposition chamber and a thin film deposition apparatus. The magnetic thin film deposition chamber includes a main chamber and a bias magnetic field device. A base pedestal is disposed in the main chamber for carrying a to-be-processed workpiece. The bias magnetic field device is configured for forming a horizontal magnetic field above the base pedestal, and the horizontal magnetic field is used to provide an in-plane anisotropy to a magnetized film layer deposited on the to-be-processed workpiece. The thin film deposition chamber provided in present disclosure is capable of forming a horizontal magnetic field above the base pedestal that is sufficient to induce an in-plane anisotropy to the magnetic thin film.

Sputter targets and method of producing same having improved pass through flux (PTF). The targets may consist essentially of Fe—Co wherein the Co is predominantly hcp phase. The targets are prepared via powder precursors wherein at least the Co is made by a gas atomization process. This atomization process includes the steps of subjecting liquid Co to the action of dry argon gas and solidifying the liquid into small droplets. After the requisite powders have been sintered, they may be cold worked at temperatures of about 25-422° C.

Provided is a nonmagnetic material particle dispersed ferromagnetic material sputtering target comprising a material including nonmagnetic material particles dispersed in a ferromagnetic material. The nonmagnetic material particle dispersed ferromagnetic material sputtering target is characterized in that all particles of the nonmagnetic material with a structure observed on the material in its polished face have a shape and size that are smaller than all imaginary circles having a radius of 2 μm formed around an arbitrary point within the nonmagnetic material particles, or that have at least two contact points or intersection points between the imaginary circles and the interface of the ferromagnetic material and the nonmagnetic material. The nonmagnetic material particle dispersed ferromagnetic material sputtering target is advantageous in that, in the formation of a film by sputtering, the influence of heating or the like on a substrate can be reduced, high-speed deposition by DC sputtering is possible, the film thickness can be regulated to be thin, the generation of particles (dust) or nodules can be reduced during sputtering, the variation in quality can be reduced to improve the mass productivity, fine crystal grains and high density can be realized, and the nonmagnetic material particle dispersed ferromagnetic material sputtering target is particularly best suited for use as a magnetic recording layer.

摘要:
Provided is a sputtering target-backing plate assembly where a raw material powder prepared so as to have the composition of a magnetic material sputtering target is filled in a die together with a backing plate and hot-pressed, thereby being bonded to the backing plate simultaneously with sintering of the magnetic material target powder.It is an object of the present invention to provide a sputtering target-backing plate assembly having a high average pass through flux and allowing more stable sputtering, by disposing the raw material powder for a target on the backing plate and sintering them.By simultaneously performing sintering and bonding, a sputtering target-backing plate assembly has a shorter manufacturing process, can shorten manufacturing period, and does not cause a problem of detachment due to an increase in temperature during sputtering. In addition, it is also an object of the present invention to provide a sputtering target-backing plate assembly at a reduced cost and with an improved average pass through flux (PTF).
