SINTERED BODY COMPRISING LICOO2 SPUTTERING TARGET, AND PRODUCTION METHOD FOR SINTERED BODY COMPRISING LICOO2

摘要

Provided is a sintered body comprising LiCoO 2 used for a sputtering target. The area A of a surface of the sintered body that corresponds to a sputtering surface is 200 - 1500 cm 2 and the relative density of the entire sintered body is 75% or higher. When B1 represents the area of a region in which the area ratio that is occupied by pores is 10% or higher in the surface that corresponds to a sputtering surface, the ratio of B1 to the area A is 50% or higher, and the area B2 of a region having a specific resistance of 1.0 × 10 2 ©-cm or smaller in the surface that corresponds to a sputtering surface occupies 25% or more of the area A.
