Sputtering target and method for manufacturing same.

摘要

A sputtering target is disclosed which includes a backing member of a cylindrical shape and a target material bonded onto an outer peripheral surface of the backing member by hot isostatic pressing. A method for manufacturing a sputtering target is also disclosed. First, a cylindrical backing member is inserted into a mold such that a space is defined between the backing member and the mold. A target material is then filled into the space between the backing member and the mold, and the mold is sealed. Thereafter, the target material and the backing member are subjected to hot isostatic pressing. <IMAGE>
