Metal oxide target and method for producing said metal oxide target

A sputtering target for the production of layers such as optical layers, the layers produced by the target, and a method for producing the target are described. In addition to Si or a combination of Si and Al, the sputtering target contains metal oxide(s), a combination of at least two metal oxides,...

Zusammenfassung:A sputtering target for the production of layers such as optical layers, the layers produced by the target, and a method for producing the target are described. In addition to Si or a combination of Si and Al, the sputtering target contains metal oxide(s), a combination of at least two metal oxides, or a combination containing at least one metal oxide in the form of an alloy or in the form of a mixture. The sputtering target has a metal oxide fraction generated by the Si and Al and the metal oxide(s) or the combination thereof. Preferably, the metal oxide in the sputtering target is a metal oxide selected from ZrO2, Ta2O5, Y2O3, HfO, CaO, MgO, Ce2O3, Al2O3, TiO2 and Nb2O5.
