<p>Provided are an indium cylindrical sputtering target capable of providing good film thickness distribution and a method for production thereof. The indium cylindrical target comprises crystal grains whose average size is 1 mm to 20 mm over its surface to be sputtered. The method for manufacturing the indium cylindrical target includes the steps of: casting a semi-finished product of an indium cylindrical target integrated with a backing tube; and subjecting the semi-finished product to plastic working in its radial direction, wherein the plastic working is performed with a total thickness reduction rate of at least 10% over its longitudinal direction.</p> |
